Are other perlmonks so addicted to their profession/hobby? Or can you get away from a computer for weeks at a time with no withdrawal?

I have many passions so it is easy for me to get away from programming for a while and do something else. And I have many things to choose from. In no particular order except wife/family are on top for a reason:

• Wife.. married since 1977 and we are still "sweethearts" and spend as much time as healthy and possible doing things together.
• Two offspring that are right now at the stage they want to do things on their own. This seems to happen at two points in a "child's" life. When they are in their mid-teens and when they first get out of college. I'm positive they'll look for Mom and Dad's attention again soon. I know my wife and I went through those stages! :-)
• Fishing. Salt and freshwater.
• Cooking.
• Brewing beer
• Training and showing my dogs
• Feeding and helping house homeless families
• Rescuing homeless dogs
• and other things

Once in a while I deliberately go vacationing somewhere where there are no internet cafes, no internet connections and get away from all this technology I live with every day of my life. I think that is a very healthy thing for anybody to do.
