If absence makes the heart grow fonder, than the distance I've forced between me and my computer has hopefully generated a strange kind of appreciation - me for the machine, and the machine for my life outside of the matrix. (And for those that dismiss whether the machine really cares about whether I go out for coffee, or meet friends for sushi, I contest, that on principle, nothing precious should be left lonely, to grow dusty, unloved and outdated). But with vapid amounts of spare time, I've lusted after computer-free ways to pass the hours. These are the results.
