Last week I did something that I have not done in 13 years: I pretty much unplugged. I went on vacation to the Outer Banks, and while I checked email occasionally, I vowed to myself that I really was going to get away without my laptop connected to me like the mouse was a version of an umbilical cord. Now for humor, if you saw the car you would not have believed this. We had four laptops, a desktop and a printer for three people. I kid you not. Let's just say that having those with me was like dragging a security blanket, and for the record, I only take credit for one desktop and one laptop!
