Turn Off That Computer

I don't consider myself to be that much of a computer guy, but every time I am told to shut down my most extensive source of information, my only means of speaking to and hearing from my friends the world over, the very bridge reaching to the girl I treasure most, I feel like there is something I have lost.

As I am writing this, I can only access a computer here and there, and only for so long at a time. (I'm on a trip for a few days and I can only use the hotel's computer.) That might not sound like a very big deal to some people, but it is at times like these that I see even more clearly just how much of a difference access to a computer makes in my life.
