Unfriending Technology

I have been a friend to technology, introduced it to my friends  and said nice things about it - even when it didn't deserve it. In return technology has not been particularly nice to me.

My webcam makes me look like a splotchy Elmer Fudd. Fumbling with  my new phone makes me appear a techno moron. Setting up Windows 10 made me feel like a fool. I keep touching the non-touch screen on my laptop. Forget about the things auto-correct does to me - there are people who never want to hear from me again because of it!

So I react the way you are supposed to when someone does things you don't like, you unfriend them. I don't just cut people off and I certainly can't cut off technology.

I will scorn technology more, not invite it to dinner or bring it up to my friends. I will shop in real spaces and have conversations in person.Technology will now be an acquaintance, not a friend- for now.
