She's Ba-ack!

          After three weeks with very limited technology… I think I’m back; at least I hope so!  (I just got an error message on my laptop, I’m hoping it was a fluke.)

          I’m not exactly sure what happened or what I was supposed to learn from it, but both my laptop and phone crashed within a week of each other and my tablet has always been moody on a day by day basis.

          I got my first computer in 1997 and my first cell phone in 2003, but if you had seen me in action over the past three weeks you would have thought I was born with one in each hand.  I could hardly function… as evidenced by two weeks without a blog post, right?

          I won’t chalk it up as a completely negative experience.  I got caught up on reading the books I had downloaded to my Nook months ago.  (Okay, yes, that’s technology, too.)  I seem to have broken my addiction to a few games I had on my phone, as well as Facebook.  I probably got more sleep.

          I had a lot of time to think about life before all this technology.  Remember when we used to hang out with friends and actually talk to each other instead of sitting in a room with a handful of people staring at their phones?  Maybe that was the lesson in all of this?  Technology is good when it’s used accordingly, but it’s not the be all and end all of everything.
