#nodataday
whilst offline yesterday for #nodataday i was reading You Took the Last Bus Home by Brian Bilston
and this poem about twitter going down seemed very apt

#nodataday yesterday went just fine!

(I think it was surprisingly easy, and am ready for the next one! But then, I'm old enough to have experienced life before the internet. I never have wanted a digital calendar and I do have books, dvds, etc)

What I did was:

-gardening (not being able to google plants' needs was a bit hard, luckily I had books)
-some planning (computer but offline)
-some chores like grocery shopping (with cash)
-a trip outdoors (barbecue with friends)

Join me next time?
