People have a love/ hate relationship with their cellphones, and for good reason. On the one hand, it makes me available in an emergency and it lets me use those moment i'd waste waiting in line talking to people. on the other, i don't need to talk to people on the phone every moment of every day.
whenever I'm doing something I don't pick it up unless somebody calls twice in a row. I let everyone know that I'll pick up the second call, but I'm also clear that I won't tolerate calling twice in a row without good cause. So I'm not disconnected from the world, but I still get to do whatever i'm doing without interuption. I mean, when i'm spending time with patty, i'm with patty. i don't want that interupted by a conversation with my boss, my freinds, or my family. but when i'm with my family, i don't want that interupted by my boss, my freinds, or patty. and the same goes for my freinds or when i'm at work. It's nothing personal, but being connected doesn't mean you have to be at everyone's beck and call.
