Ignore Everything

























I need a break...


From emails, telephone marketers, television, newspapers, and even from This Being Alive.


I need to shut up and quiet down.


I need to un-plug.


I will be away from my desk for 2 days. 


That's it. 
Just 2.
Back in time to celebrate the first day of summer.


Join me for this un-official Un-Plug Yourself thing.


Tuck your cell phone in your underwear drawer.
Un-check your email. 
Use the newspaper for kitty litter box only.
Tape a big heart over the television screen.


Turn the volume down long enough to hear what you're thinking, feeling, wondering about, needing. 


For 2 days. 


I'm gonna give it a whirl.


Completely ignore everything I just wrote. 


[more noise?]


See you Tuesday.

  1. I LOVE it, Betsy... GO FOR IT!!!

    of course, go for it quietly and deliberately... please excuse the loud and capitalized enthusiastic letters that I threw out at you in the previous sentence, but I am so with you on this one...

    enjoy.

    I'm going to do the same thing.
