Watchers

I've spent the past three weeks without Cable, Internet, or a Home Phone; yesterday the latter two were set up, but I have a feeling Cable is gone for good.  After nearly 12 years with a big telecom company, and all the frustration that entailed, I told them I was done.

Breaking up with Big Telecom is like ending a relationship with someone who insists it's not over.  Multiple phone calls from them, emails asking for one last chance – pathetic, just pathetic.  Have some dignity, Rogers Communications.

So anyways – how this relates to art: I thought that without the internet as a distraction, I would get a lot more artwork done.  Didn't happen.  My productivity was roughly the same; while the net wasn't distracting me over these past few weeks, it wasn't assisting me either when I needed inspiration or reference material.  So, I've signed up with one of the smaller distributors of home phone and internet (do you know what else is a lot smaller?  The bill.)

What's interesting is that my wife and I used the cable television the most out of those three services – and we miss it the least.  I'd advise anyone out there to, at least as an experiment, try cutting yourself off from what you use regularly, if only for a little while.  It may reveal what it is you really want and need.
