"We need, on occasion, to be able to go to a quieter place..."-Alain de Botton.

Mr. de Botton was referring to Twitter, of which I am not a Twit, but I am a Blog and I think Mr. de Botton's advice applies to all this stuff. I am the most unconnected person I know but even I feel I am too connected sometimes. I like to completely disconnect sometimes, even by just putting my cell phone in the other room or leaving it in the car. If I can just get it more than an arm's length away I feel more relaxed. I would like an official Disconnected Day. Add that to the list of proposed new holidays.
