Disconnected

Do you ever kinda wish you could be less connected to the world. That sometimes you can really enjoy the silence?

I have a love/hate relationship with my smartphone. I clearly use my phone more than the rest of the family combined. I call it getting more for my dollar, but it’s really more of an addiction. 

So when my mom is threatening to stop paying for my phone. I don’t mind, because a) I should be paying for my own phone and b) I halfway don’t want a phone. Unfortunately,  it actually saves us both money if I stay on her plan. If only she’d let me pay my share.

I’d love to shut off my phone for awhile. I wasn’t alive for it, but there was a time when people barely had home phones, and I’d like to survive like that. I’m going to South Africa for (hopefully) 2 weeks. That’ll be a nice break.
