My Worst Nightmare
If I had to go without internet for more than 48 hours that would be truly awful. Cell phone - I don't mind so much. I've never been a big caller or one of those people who have really long chats on their phones on a daily basis. I text some, but never more than 10 messages per day.
I do communicate considerably more through IM, and Facebook, and email, and my blog. Hence why an online outage would be harder. But the major reason life without the internet would be truly a challenge is not for the communication aspect but for more functional matters - I read my newspapers online, I listen to music online, I watch TV online, I pay my bills online, I check weather reports and stock markets on line, I shop online, and I write online.
Its pretty much everything. Without the internet what would I do for even a day? I'd have to get outside. On to the streets. In this cold. Hmm, yeah, I like not so much.
Thank heavens im not so "advanced" and im still somewhat of a caveman comparatively. :) he he, but im gettin there.....

I think I'd be okay after the initial panic. I might go for a brisk walk or two. Think of all the books I can finally get down to reading! All the painting I could do. Ooh and all the baking.
