It seems that at the moment, i get home from school at 3pm and spend the entire rest of the afternoon and evening sitting at the computer essentially doing nothing at all, maybe until 8pm until i have some food and then either watch telly or sit at the computer again until 11 or 12pm, i WANT to be able to shutdown the computer and go and do something “constructive” but for some reason i don’t, this also ends with me putting off all my school work till absurd hours in the night when i can finally be motivated to do it.
This is really getting to me! i hope i manage!

I spend all day on the comper instead of being out in the world. I’m going to take up swimming and whenever I feel like going on the computer I’ll go out to the pool.
I work as a help desk technician for a large electrical contractor. So I’m on the computer from 730-5. I’ve been spending more and more time on the computer then ever.
cucumber_melon8 is in a good mood :)
it’s kind of hard to not get on very often because I do high school online. and i have to work hard to get caught up in one class and i am going to start a new class that should be 6 weeks worth and i will only have 3 weeks to complete it.
i spend a lot of time o nthe computer because of school, but i admit i come on places like here when i get distracted.

If you only get on the computer when you have to and find other things to do in your “spare” time- boy does it make a difference. I actually feel mentally sharper lately.
Better go- My time is up here!

I went one whole month with only spending 5 minutes a day on the computer! (Checking bills and tracking shipments) I did it! I was amazed at how much I got done!

I decided to only get on the computer for 10 minutes yesterday. I did well :) I was amazed at how much I got done- plus I even made a cake for my daughter!

I think I am doing very well actually. I only get on once a day- okay maybe twice but I am no longer glued wondering if I am going to get an email from someone famous or a rich uncle. I have finally come to realize that the computer is not a life! So I am getting out and having one myself! (A life)

I think I am getting better at this. I only allow my self to check my email first thing in the morning, once in the afternoon and before I go to bed. I am trying to organize my home and life and this seems to be the first step for me!

I love my computer! I am currently living out of the country and it really does keep me connected. Although, I spend way too much time checking for updates from home when I KNOW the time difference if 13 hours and everyone is asleep! The connection here is bad so maybe this will work to my advantage!! I can exist outside the computer! they always say “think outside of the box” I just never knew they meant THIS box!!
