Unplug Your Screen! April 21st through the 27th

Photobucket
I am starting to get my affairs in order for the 2nd annual TV turn off week blog challenge. If you need or want to get a hold of me that week, you'll need to get my phone number or trek on over to my house, because I'll be unplugging the TV and the computer for a whole week.

It shouldn't be too hard to go a whole week with no television, but the computer will be a challenge. I have so many people who are used to contacting me by email, that they don't even know how to reach me otherwise. I'll fight urges to "just look that up real quick" and I will miss reading my friend's and beloved stranger's blogs. I'll have to depend on our paper for news, and look at the sky to guess what kind of weather might be coming. I think the whole thing will be pretty fun in the end.

Hooray! Thanks for joining in! It seems that unplugging the computer will be the most challenging aspect for most of us, me included. Good luck!

I could not survive at work without my computer. It is my refuge from boredom. Good luck!

I am going to have a tough time without the computer, no doubt. I am having to do a bunch of work ahead of time to be free of it, and i am sure i will miss some stuff. in all though, i think it will be fun.
