After a long
battle with the impressively stubborn procrastinator within me, I recently bit
the bullet, dusted off the laptop and toppled myself screaming into the icy
waters of the world of online blogging.
I am quite a hypocrite when it comes to technology, as definitely don't not want to live without my iPod, laptop or Android phone. However, as soon as any of these appliances demand the slightest bit of attention from me (such as screaming to be fed, watered or charged) I instantly become irritated at how the world has been taken over by faceless technology.
I have a similar
unpredictable temperament towards computers outside the hours of 9 – 5. All day
I will float with ease through programmes, spreadsheets, shortcuts and emails,
but as soon as I push the exit button on the office door, I leave this modern
version of myself propped uncomfortably on my ergonomic spine-deforming chair
and float back to the mid 90s where “just pull the plug out” was a reasonable
solution to any technological crisis.
