I'm staying at the house of some friends while I'm in class these two weeks, and the house must be lined with lead or something, because I get no cell reception (even outside, sometimes) and the internet doesn't work everywhere, like in the living room. Well, it's temperamental and moody.
It's kind of a beautiful thing. Sure, I wasn't able to get online last night and write this entry, but I also can't get any phone calls and spend less time online. Fabulous. Maybe I should climb on my roof at home with a roll of tinfoil.
I'm reading! A lot! Well, I'm also watching a lot of Angel, but that's really okay since I'm getting other things done, too. Not that my phone rings much at home, but it does from time to time. I get e-mails or facebook postings from people asking me to do things, and I should do laundry or clean the house or something. Here? It isn't messy, there's plenty of room to put the things away that need to be put away, and I can't do anything with anyone. It's gorgeous.
Perhaps I need to learn to block out my time better when I'm working on class. The only problem with that is that I'm almost always working on class, and I do have a life, relationships, and ministry to consider. But maybe I should block of certain days- maybe 2 per week, at least- where I never make plans and I don't answer the phone. I also won't feel guilty about housework. This is something to think about.
