There you have it. No cell phones here. Cell phone: nada. I don't even have an answer machine. If somebody wants to call me and it's important, they will call again later. The idea to be reachable all the time is, in fact, a little scary to me.

There were times when I wore a watch almost everytime. Then someday, some months ago now, it broke, and my second one just after it. Since I'm lazy, it took me some time to get them repaired, and in that time I was wearing none. The first days it was weird, but then I more and more realized that you don't really need one all the time. It is a liberating feeling! Now I don't wear watches anymore and it's no problem ever. My two ones still lie on my desk at home - unrepaired (I told you I'm lazy).

I feel like a modern rebel!

PS: I heard about people who wear memory sticks around their necks. What does that remind me of?
