So much of what you expressed is exactly how I feel about LWC (Life With Computer!) I especially think it important to experience the outside with having attachments–cell phones, iPods, all those noise makers. It’s easy to miss the connections to nature if you are distracted.

This is one reason why I’ve given my beloved prior nice-quite-work-at-5am time to my daughter – she now likes watching animes with me at that time. Oh well, I can always wake up at 2am (which, btw, is what I did today…. )

Deb, Refreshing advice. The problem I see is with the advent of the iPhone, people are taking computing into the forest. This is why I am resisting the urge to buy one. We all need to unwire in order to unwind. Brad Shorr’s last blog post..Thank You, Word Sell Commenters

--Deb, what a lovely response to the theme, and reminder to me to get outside! I love my computer too... rather, I love the conversations and friendships that I get to access through that keyboard... and there are times when it's hard to switch off. But I always feel so much better when I do take time out, and I always get a whole lot more ideas and inspiration when I do too.

It certainly doesn’t hurt to have great weather outside–it makes it much more tempting! (Except for that whole Spring-time allergy thing.)

I agree! I find a lot of my inspiration comes when I am off my computer and interacting with the world around me. Tom - Free Blog Niche Ideas’s last blog post..Free Niche Blog Idea: CAKES (Traffic & Search Stats Inc)
