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.

If your a student it's not procrastination because you're learning!   ;)

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!
