Withdrawal Symptoms...

I really don't know why, but every time that I'm away from home (without my laptop) I get withdrawal symptoms.
It's stupid and ridiculous and all those other things that sound like that, but I get them nonetheless.

I'm off on a skiing holiday later today and whilst I am very excited by this (I do love skiing - possibly even more than I love technology ) I still have that nagging feeling that I will be 'offline' and it fills me with a little bit of fear!

I'll still have my iPhone and have already investigated the Wi-Fi hotspots where I'm going (God I am sad aren't I?!) but I'll still have that itching feeling that I'm missing out on something when I'm not connected.

I suspect that proper geeks never have this issue as they don't get out much (except in "Second Life", but that doesn't count does it).

Ah well, I'm sure I'll cope somehow, and possibly end up annoying my wife by having to check my emails every 5 mins just to see if CDWow have sent me yet another £1 off voucher (things must be bad - they're almost a daily occurrence now).
