Open all hours – the problem with technology today

I dropped my iPhone.  Again.

Now the first time I did this I was lucky – the awesome piece of machinery survived the fall and responded immediately to my furious CPR of the on/off button.

The ninth time I dropped it, there was nothing that would help.  My phone had flatlined.  I very suddenly felt disconnected from my life, my work emails, my social media (tweet tweet!)

Now some say the Law of Attraction is a powerful thing.  You put out there what you want – and you get it.  So I had been addicted to my iPhone for a while.  Checking my emails too often, being accessible when I should have been otherwise engaged.  My wall paper should have read “Open all hours”.  I was saying to my friends how I had a love/hate thing going on with the iPhone.  “I wish I could just text and talk like the old days…”

Well my wish was granted.

I am now getting acquainted with a mate’s old phone while waiting for the new iPhone to be released. I am in iRehab!

Thou shalt not to be dependant on iPhone…. 

I am realising that the world is not going to fall down if I do not update my twitter, linked in or facebook account everyday! Check my emails 40,000 times.

It is quite refreshing.  By the time I get my hands on the new phone I will have a different relationship with it.  They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder?

Question is though…does the new phone come with a bubble wrap cover?
