so here's the lowdown! I pretty much quit the internet 12 months ago
RSI in my wrists, and a bunch of work to do meant I decided to limit my computer use drastically. I blocked like every website in my hosts file. pretty much stopped using the web except for e-mail. stopped using my phone etc.
For a while I felt kinda peaceful not having any distraction. it was like when I first got my own computer when I was a kid. no internet? have to make your own amusement. I was getting a lot done too!
even when I relaxed some of those restrictions, I'd fallen off the wagon with social media. no longer part of my daily routine. no longer know how to be Online. Wow! I felt smug about it. but after a while I just felt lonely.
I kept thinking about all the people on here and how I really missed them. what would people think? "Where have you been!!!" I kept putting it off. Too scared. And it's been a busy year so I always had some excuse, something else in the Real World I could be doing instead
