Funny how digital technologies that can connect us over huge distances can also distract us from the people closest to us. I'm as guilty of that as anyone... and probably a lot more than most.
Case in point: I lost count of the number of times I rebuffed my daughter while drawing this cartoon.
Then again, we re-bonded afterward over WALL-E for the Wii and "Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor" on my iPhone. So don't hold your breath waiting for me to go off the grid quite yet.

Cool, I'd like to try it out and see if how far it's going to be..
Great cartoon. Makes me think about how much time I spend on social media vs how much time I am fully engaged with my family.
So true- I am looking for my kids right now.. oh they are 13 and 17. I will hit Facebook and see what is going on with them to make sure I know how they are feeling, what they are doing right now and where to find them.. hit instant chat and meet in the living room LOL
