The washer churns and sloshes, the dryer tumbles and hums, my suitcase is half packed, and I'm here at the keyboard about to dive off into the digital free world. My palms are sweaty and my left eye is twitching just thinking about it.

I will miss you all. But I shall return. Perhaps with a new perspective on what it means to live in the personal computer age. Ever one to question things, even good things, I just have to see what happens. It's the scientist in me I guess.

If I knew how to figure odds, I could start a betting pool on how many emails will await me when I get back. Hmmmm, to count spam, or not to count, that is the question. Okay, I'll bite. I guess 452 emails. Including spam.

So until we meet again. Be well.

(She won't last the night.......)

You obviously have never encountered my stubborn side. Be afraid, be very afraid!

I hope you enjoy your break. I don't think I can do it although I'm less of a junkie than I was when I first went online. *smile*

Anxiously awaiting your return,

There is life outside of the computer? No! Say it isn't so!
We will miss you.

Farewell, farewell, dear Yetzirah. Until we meet again in cyberspace.

Be well. Fare well. Be strong. (To the tune of some smaltzy music)

I'm guessing more like 600 if you're going to count spam.

Shalom

It is a struggle, but I am adjusting to this notion.

Considering you are going to visit the parental units I know you will be in good hands. Enjoy your visit. You will be missed here.

I'm probably just as addicted as you are, and I won't be helping your cause any if I tell you how much I'm going to miss my daily fix of your world am I?

Trying to be strong here, *bottom lip wibbling*
Come back sooooon!

Good on you. Relax and don't even think about us. Just enjoy yourself for a change. Let the spam pile up. It will if you're there or not. ;-)

Wow! a new look I expected to find, but the diarist not at home! That is a surprise.
Hope your experiment of living in non-blog land for a while is fun and enlightening.
I liked your quote by Rabbi Nachman, btw.
