But then I had some gremlins in my machine this past summer, and ended up scrubbing everything off my hard drive and starting over... and boy, did I change the way I do things. I don't yet have a reason to go to 100%-cloud-computing, but if I needed to, I could get myself out the door with little prep time, and pick up from anywhere else and still get my work done.

Almost anyone could make it work. And yet, over the last month of being here, I've seen some very specific things we've done over the last year that have made this month (up to two months) away not only possible, but... I won't say "easy" but far from disastrous. @Chris- Exactly. Almost anyone could make it work.

When I first read the question, I immediately had a second question: "If I had no choice, could I make it possible?" I mean -- if it's a choice between doing this or dying, I'd find a way to do it. So why do I need to die to find a way to make it possible? Sure I wouldn't prefer to... "It's not on my Top 10 List" (my wife has finally figured out that this metaphorical list doesn't actually exist). It would take a lot of very fast logistical changes... forwarding address being just the most minimal. And yes my mind would probably find a lot of excuses why it's difficult or impossible... But if I were going to die, would I find a way? You betcha! So I can't really use any of those excuses (that's what they are) for not doing it if that's what life asks of me.
