Blogging about 3 days is a little silly but I guess feeling the need to publish that online falls inline with the problem this guy seems to have with his dependency on technology.
For me, 3 days is little more than a bank holiday with my family. A trip to the zoo, family meals, walks along the fields and foot paths, teaching the kids to ride a bike, playing games: sports games, board games, card games, or even just hide and seek.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy "online" as much as the next person (video streaming, online gaming, HN etc) but sometimes it's nice to interact with people and/or nature instead of LCD screens. So not spending time online is as natural as eating.

- dorchadas 5y agoIt's funny as it was the opposite for my friends. We always go on New Year's trips together, and when we're just sitting around or in the car, etc. everyone was on their screens. Same back at the cabin, unless we were playing Uno or some other game. We're all early 29-31.
