Don't you dare touch my artificial limb!

My biggest fear in life is a paper cut in the eye. Think about it...Paper cut. Eyeball. My second biggest fear is losing a limb and having to live life as an amputee. My third biggest fear is technology. This blog is me going out on a "limb" and facing a huge fear of mine. Perhaps if this goes well I'll saw off an arm, or take a manila folder to my cornea. I don't have any logical reason that i'm freaked out about technology, it just all feels very "Brave New World" to me. For awhile I rebelled against modern life. No cell phone, no i-pod, no internet machine, and only basic cable. My reasons being sheer ingenuity and poverty, I'm not telling the ratio. I learned a lot in the time I was "disconnected" so to speak. Mainly how to do Sudoku, but it was a learning period nonetheless. Something happened to my ingenuity or my poverty because I'm back, cell phone in hand, ready to re-connect with the generation lost in space. This blog is the closest I will ever get to a myspace or facebook page. If you want to know me, read me, but don't you dare touch my artificial limb!
