I just got Internet the other night after not having it for over a month. I was still able to check my email at work, so it wasn't that bad, but I didn't have FB, Skype or anything like that. Due to the firewalls on govt computers a bunch of sites are blocked.
For me internet is a must, in the time I was offline I was not able to use Skype therefore, I could not make phone calls, this made me feel very cut off from civilization. But is it really a "must"? Doubtful, in the weeks I didn't have internet, I read 5 books, went on runs, and always made it to bed at a reasonable time. I have decided that I am going to shut off my computer an hour before I want to go to bed and read, we will see how that works, but to be honest I really enjoyed my time reading, so this is my way to keep it up.
Here's to Facebooking, Skyping and reading. :) And we wonder what is happening to kids these days... that is definitely for another blog.
For now I am back online, yay!
