Title: I have got to get off this computer!
Post by: ashleighauctions on November 08, 2009, 04:54:21 am
I have so many things I need to be doing today but I am glued to this computer! This is so addictive!

I agree... I am on the computer all day at work and then when I get home I tell myself I just need to check my email and then I'm on the computer for another few hours.

I agree. So lately when my boyfriend leaves for work, around 6 a.m. I get right on the computer til about 2p.m. then I get the housework and cooking done. Tonight I came back up to see what's going on here. Hopefully he won't come up and ask what I'm doing.

I always try to take breaks away from the computer throughout the day to give my eyes a rest. Working on the computer all day can become a serious habit that can be hard to break.

We can all relate to that. It's even more difficult to avoid the internet when you can earn some extra $$ from sites like FC and others while we neglect our household chores.  ::)

Yes, for me the Internet and some Computer Games like Need For Speed Shift or Worms 4: Mayhem can be very addicting.

"I have to get off this computer!"

Ihear you!  It seems that if I am not at work on the clock, I am online at home. 

I never would have thought that I would become an "addict"

There's just so much to do online!  I have a ton of interests so there is always something for me to look up or learn about, shows to watch, new things to discover, read, music to hear.  It is just a wealth of things to do, but it still doesn't beat hanging out with friends.  I do chores and school work in between being online because I end up getting restless.  So I'll be on for an hour or two and get up and go do something, then go back and watch a show, then get up and wash dishes or whatever.  Some thing I can do while watching shows or movies online like folding clothes or what have you.  Its addictive!

I agree too that my computer is addictive.  I may only intend to spend a few minutes on it but then end up spending hours on it.  Why I am not sure but I do have fun.

Hey...just think where we would be if we did not have computers! Like it was 20 yrs ago!!?? BORING! I consider it to be a necessity in this day & age, unlike 15 yrs ago it was a luxury! We have come along way baby! And the computer & internet are in our veins now! lol....I never had access at work until a few weeks ago! We have finally made it to modern technology at my job! YAY! lol...now I can breath with the internet I have at work (although they block a lot of sites)...I can still do my surveys!  ;D

Call up your friends and go hang out with them. Then again, I did that and it kills my money going out to eat too often. I concluded that it's a lot cheaper just to stay at home and more beneficial to do some online money making.

You need to discipline yourself when it comes to using internet. It's very addictive. I just give myself 30 minutes a day for "fun" stuff.

Yes, I'm addicted too. Computers are getting smaller & smaller & faster & faster. Remember when we had to wait what seemed like hours just to have 1 program downloaded? I don't think it's going to happen in my lifetime but I bet humans will soon be able to insert a chip into the brain at birth & that will be how kids in the future have computer access!

Holy crap, I'm just sooooo jealous!!!!

Hail to the COMPUTER!!!!!! :notworthy: (we are not worthy, we are not worthy....)
