Log internet consumption for a week as a form of shock therapy

Today I worked around the house, so I didn’t spend that much time on the internet. I know that I can waste a weekend on the internet, but now that I am more aware of how much time I waste online outside of work, perhaps I won’t. Of course, time on 43things, isn’t a waste.

Less than hour. Guess I am just not in the mood to surf tonite.

Work hours again only minus a long lunch, though stayed late and booked my vacation to Hawaii. Wahoo!!

8 hours.

work hours…8 hours. home 1 hour.

total 9 hours

looks like i am pretty consistent

Internet consumption was down, but mostly because I had meetings and then when I got home (after 11) I stayed off the internet.

6 hours

I work online all day, so…
lets see…

9:30-6:30 that makes 9 hours, but take about an hour off for lunch and a meeting. But then I came home and worked 2 more hours.

Total: 10 hours

undone for too long. It starts today…

1 hour of internet

The number is low for a Monday, because I didn’t work today.

i haven’t really done it, not consistently and properly and anally, but i’ve had a couple of damn good shots and found something that helps me more: logging time in general (working, making tea, staring at the ceiling) in a little notebook. typically, i’ll often find that i conked out after lunch or forgot a day, or whatever. but i am finding that being accountable to my little notebook at least gets me started earlier. so i’m going to tick this off and replace it by an appropriate new goal.

haven’t i managed this yet? probably because i just don’t want to know…
have made repeated attempts and then either forgotten or given up because i didn’t like what i was seeing.
ok, rather than waiting for the perfect opportunity, blah blah, amd going to start again now. and not just internet: life in general. a time and motion study of zanna’s life from now (12.30 sunday) to friday lunchtime.

that this goal is how I met Zanna!

But I now spend SO much time on the internet for work that it would be too self-punishing to try and monitor it.

And lest I forget – there’s always serendipity.
