ME, ME, ME, or lack of technology?

In my opinion most of the people in this day and age that work with computers on a regular basis are somewhat "addicted" to the computer. They are always checking their email, surfing the net for that new and exciting site, chatting with friends..etc. I mention this today because my former spouse use to be on the computer all the time, unfortunately that played a big part in the break up of our marriage. Now that he has moved on with his life he seems not to be on the computer much anymore which is hard for me to communicate with him in regards to the kids. Not that communication is the best in any mode with him in regards to the kids, but at least I have a record of it through the email. He still just "reads" into it what he wants. He has been on vacation for the last week, and I sent him an email yesterday to let him know about some of the kids stuff because he was picking them up from daycare. You would think that he would have at least checked his email when he got home. Of course he is probably to busy worrying about himself and his happiness first. Or maybe it is because he only has a dial up connection and hates getting on the computer now since he was so use to a DSL connection. That is to funny if that is the case, because people now a days hate waiting for anything. Oh well, just another day in my never ending battle of communication problems with him.
