Mobile Burnout

My laptop is welded to my hip, if I go someplace and leave my mobile phone at the house I feel naked. Heck the other day I grabbed the PDA, Cell Phone, and stupid me left the wallet at home. (Priorities I guess) Well in 2001 shortly after 9-11 I was deployed to a location that was in a communications black-out no phone, no e-mail, no Net etc this continued for 78 days. Talk about a forced 12 step plan those 78 days changed me completely. Life goes on without e-mail! Is this a shocking statement. We all realize it is not truly practical but it changed my perspective. So mow when I go on vacation I leave my virtual office at the office and truly go on vacation. If you vacation with your virtual office I challenge you to leave it at home next time. You will come back refreshed and ready to read those 3000 e-mails you missed while you were gone. Oh and how did I catch up with 78 days of mail. Simple I deleted the whole batch. [Smart Mobs]
