I took my daughter to see The Lion King last week. I decided no phone. We were going to enjoy the show together. We perched in our balcony seats to see people busy themselves with taking pictures and posting to their social network. There were four women sitting on the railing of their box squeezing together to get the perfect “Here we are!” picture. My daughter wondered outloud why they were doing it. And if they fell would that mean the Fire Dept. would stop the show? We had a great time for 2 1/2 hours enjoying the music, costumes, and performers. Did I get phone calls? Yes. Did I get e-mails? Yes. Did I have the best time creating a lasting memory offline? Absolutely! (And I’m pretty sure no one missed me.)

@ginidietrich Give them fair warning that it’s getting REALLY hard with the Olympics around the corner! Other than that, I limit my TV to the shows I really, really look forward to every week (hello, Mad Men & Game of Thrones!).

@rdopping That does sound…err…lovely? Except for the agony part. Yes, my yoga studio is my sanctuary- it is a silent space, no one speaks but the instructor. A lovely oasis of calm in my day.

@ginidietrich I would imagine you don’t say snarky things to your houseguests when they say something nice to you. On second thought…And I do think that the person who first introduced you to social media IS the boss of you!! PS: You never heard my story which illustrates what an idiot I am. This is a limited time offer!
