Well... I am not worry for a number of reasons. The most salient is that I am technologically in the 19th Century; by choice.

I own a second-hand old cell phone, which I only carry when going on an overnight trip or longer... the #8 does not dial.
Moreover, I do not have nor do I want a FACEBOOK or a TWITTER account. 

My life is simple. Indeed, I can wait 'til I get home to find out that nothin' consequential happened while I was gone! 

During my last 10-week solo trek across the nation, I called the wife ten  times when I knew she was asleep.

I'd just leave a message indicating my "location" and blatantly lying 'bout not having any fun in Gary, Indiana,
while board to death at the French Quarters in New Orleans!

"... Honey. I can't wait 'til I get home... err... one of these days..."
