I know I could and should be doing other things.....but it's so fun!!! LOL I guess there are worse things one could be doing, lol.

Yea I really shouldn't be online as much as I am. I've tried to cut down in the past but it's so addictive.

Yeah, especially now around finals time when I have papers to write/exams to study for. But that doesn't stop me from wasting my time online.

I've cut way down, and I'm still on a lot.

I don't feel guilty. I don't let it interfere with my real life.

Umm, not me. Not really.

I'm at work right now. Can you believe it? I get paid to do this

Nah. There sure isn't ever anything better to do.

gilligan fanatic · 04-26-2006, 06:44 PM

Oh yeah, especially at night when I say will read just one more post.

KristinHerreraFan · 04-26-2006, 09:54 PM

Defenetely, I hate when it takes up homework, and reading time.

But other than that, I practically live on the internet!

Hello retrochick9,

I used to be a net junkie but things are different now. As you can see not to many new sites coming online these days, and chat rooms is a no no for me.

How about "Online Anonymous" meetings? Maybe a 12-step program? I know, they can be held online!!!

I would say that lately I have been feeling guilty for wasting time online, especially at home. There are times when all three forums I frequent has sooooo little activity, and there is hardly anyone online or available anymore on the IM. That's when I start to realize I really have such a boring life. I have thought about cutting back on some of my internet activity. Then again, I have been thinking this for about 10 years, and it's still the same.

Well, seriously speaking, I am highly considering cutting back certain online communication activities.

Only when I should be doing something else more important.
