No. Because it's also my mp3 player. And I need music.

No because I need constant open communication with my job. They have to be able to reach me. Plus some people I know what have a fit if they couldnt get hold of me on my cell. It would just cause a bunch of confusion so I gotta keep it on me.

I'm Old!
I have trained for years how to exist without communicating electronically. In fact, in 1967 with my first landline telephone, I had a switch installed so I could turn that intrusive device off - there was no reason that anyone needed to wake me that could not wait until the next morning.
I have a cell phone and turn it on when I want to call someone or am expecting someone to call me for a reason. Few ppl have my cell #. They call my landline and leave a msg on my machine.
Try it for a day. You too can be free from these Orwellian intrusive devices.

In theory, I could do without my cellphone, but in practice/reality, I can't, only for the reason that I'm on everyone's speed-dial, including my daughter's close friends, in the event she should have a seizure when I'm not around. So my phone is used mostly as a "Mom-911" to get to where she is fast, in that situation, but thankfully, it's been over a year now that I've been "paged" on my cell.
I also use it to call my Grandmother, because that's the only phone she can hear me on, for whatever reason! LOL

Wouldn't be the end of the world, but it would be inconvenient.

I could probably go a day without using my cellphone and there have been plenty of days I haven't used my cell phone, but I could never travel without one.

I don't like to, but this weekend, just felt like being totally unplugged while we were at Dad's, and so that is what I did. It was nice.

Realizing that it might be a bit harder, as I"m going to be getting rid of my landline sooner.
