night one of fifty two

So it was night one of 52 nights unplugged, and not entirely successful. The plan was to avoid all screens, beginning at 5pm. CD sent a text message around 5:20. This is a rare event so I had to grab my phone. We made it to the party at Oliver's school, 45 minutes late due to the snow and insane traffic, and I felt the phone vibrating again. I had new mail and something told me I should check it. It was my realtor, saying she was sick and would not be able to do our call. So, good thing I looked. I am kind of annoyed that I printed out a long document in preparation for the call though. If not for the whole unplugged thing, I would not have had to print it. And then it wasn't necessary in the end. Wasteful, and frustrating.

I did manage to avoid TV and get a whole bunch of magazines cleaned out of my bedroom, but I checked email a few more times in the course of the evening. 

It was also Blog365's day of rest, but I'm guessing you didn't miss me.
