Yup – I can be a bit hermetic. I don’t view technology as something that I have to be cleaved to. AS long as I have my family nearby (and I do), books, paper and pen so I could write my friends (or just go visit them – I mean, why not – road trip!!) – I’m good. I have a real love/hate relationship with technology and our over-dependence upon them. So yeah, I could let it go.
