I have achieved Total Technology SATURATION: 2 laptops, 3 cell phones, a house phone, twitter, twhirl, blogs, and separate simultaneous IM sessions with Russia, Costa Mesa and Cincinnati. This week of going in to the office early, coming home and working until 9pm or later each of the last 3 nights, WebEx sessions, conference calls, calls to customers, call from sales people, calls to support people; I’m done.

I long for a walk on a deserted beach, a hike in the mountains or a few round of golf with all the technology locked away for at least day. Would the world stop rotating? Would a Super Power collapse? Would someone die? I think not. I’m just not that important. So why do I do it to myself?
