We know what you’re thinking: No life! How can I be expected to survive without my phone/iPad/beeper/computer? My Twitter trigger finger will waste away; my friend swill think I don’t love them. My FB Status Update will remain unchanged for longer than 12 hours and people will think I’m still shopping for True Religion jeans when really I’m at the movies with Julie and Eddie!

The National Day of Unplugging was cooked up by Reboot, a NY-based, nonprofit think tank comprised of TV execs, Web developers, writers, filmmakers and CEOs – the very people who are probably most addicted to their plugged in toys.

Jill Soloway, an LA-based writer and TV producer best known for her work on Six Feet Under, said unplugging for a day was “next to excruciating.” She missed her iPhone terribly and told the New York Times, “Somebody once said to me that a computer fits with anxiety like a lock in a key. And that’s exactly right. You have an anxious moment out in your life, or in your world, and you want a little hit, and your e-mail can do that.”

The day’s purpose is to help people connect in a more real, personal day, taking a page from the Jewish Sabbath tradition, which asks Jews to rest and refrain from work every week from sundown Friday to subdown Saturday.
