Maybe frequent "fasting" is the way to go. As for Margaret Atwood, always nice to know of a fellow reader! Surfacing is a great book, but definitely an early one. Oryx and Crake may be my favorite thus far. :) It was a blissful few days, AND it’s nice to have the technology again. Maybe frequent “fasting” is the way to go.

I haven't read this one, though. Sounds like the luddite life is serving you well. Almost makes me want to follow suit. I know I definitely prefer life with a phone that can barely text rather than the blackberry I used to have. You might be on to something. ;-) Oh how I love Margaret Atwood!

What an experience. I hadn't thought of the value of disconnecting from community for such a long period. It definitely must give you a unique perspective on life back in town.
