I tried to go 14 days without computer, internet and email but failed miserably.  I managed 4 days before giving up.  These are my journal entries:

May 12th
10:00 a.m.  Very difficult not to start my day by reading email and online news.

10:55 p.m.  Happy I made it through the day.  The temptation to turn on my computer was stronger than I thought it would be.  The next 13 days will be difficult.

May 13th
8:26 a.m.  Feeling anxious without access to a computer.  Calm myself by looking at photos.

10:47 p.m.  Depressive unproductive day; not sure if it was caused by the computer restriction.  I did manage to write a poem.

May 14th
8:08 a.m.  Good feeling about today.  Had a great work out and plan to get a lot of writing done.  Who needs a computer?

10:45 p.m.  Wanted to look up a synonym for the word conspicuous but couldn’t because I don’t own a physical dictionary.  Got some writing done but not as much as I thought I would do.

May 15th
11:00 a.m.  I dislike talking on the phone but have been forced to rely on it since this experiment.

10:26 p.m.  This is the dumbest idea I’ve ever had.  Don’t think that I’ve ever felt this lonely – this stranded.
