I seem to be so disconnected...

I seem to be so disconnected

and I am proud of that..

I do not Tweet…

I do not Instagram…

I do not Text….

And I do not own a cell phone…

See I lived the first 50 some odd

years of my life, not being tethered

to anyone. Especially by phone.

and seemed to do very well.

While working I did have a cell phone.

But when I retired, I gave it up. I left

it on the table more than I had it with me.

Now the King, it is his umbilical cord.

There was never anything so important

it could not wait until I got home, or

meet up with someone. Only time I miss

one, is when I travel alone. In case I break

down.

I do play around on Facebook, especially

in the winter, on a rainy day. But in the summer

I can go all day without Facebook or even

looking at my email.

I even go on vacation with out them. I have

taken my laptop with me on one of them.

But it was to down load my pictures, in

case something happen to my camera.

Which was weird as it did, because for some

reason, my camera decided to delete

all my pictures. After my initial heart attack,

I remembered I had downloaded the last

bunch on the laptop.  

I find it sad, when I see people at a diner,

with each one with their phone in their

hand, and their fingers are running across

the keyboard.. and not talking to each other.

So sad.. and to me… disrespectful.
