One of my issues is grabbing the phone to kill time while waiting even for a small amount of time.

Ordered a bagel? Let me grab my phone for the 2 minutes it takes for them to call my number.

In an uber ride? Turn on the phone...

Waiting for a deploy? Let me scroll through reddit a bit.

I love the kindle, but reading a page at a time here and there isn't appealing to me, personally.

Instead, I've been trying to make a conscious effort to just be aware of my present physical space instead of grabbing for my phone during those little waits. I'm old enough to have grown up without a phone until after I graduated. I /know/ that I'll be perfectly fine without picking up my phone... but this habit of constant digital information ingestion is hard to break.
