Does anyone else suffer from Computer Addiction?

You know, that over powering feeling that no matter what your plans are, you HAVE to sit down at the computer.  You say to yourself  " I have so much to do today, so many things I want to accomplish today. I'm just going to check my e-mail real quick, then get busy." and 5 hours later you are still "just checking" emails?

First you check your e-mails and maybe answer some, then you check your blogs, find a few things you want to respond to, then you check your myspace page, then check your e-mails again, just in case someone responded to your blogs, comments  or e-mails. If no one has, you wonder why, maybe you need to refresh the page, check e-mails again. You play a few games, just to relax after checking and answering those e-mails and posting those blogs, then you have to check your e-mails again, refresh the page again, (you just know that everything you said was so intelligent and insightful that everyone wants to respond, must be problems with the web site)  then a few more games, give the website time to get itself right, refresh the page, check your e-mail and blog sites again, play a few games (got to relax, don't you know), now your hungry, throw something in the microwave, check e-mails and blogs while you're waiting, food done, sit down at the computer, check e-mails and blog sites again, eat, respond to e-mails and blog comments, play a few games, and the cycle continues until you have completely wasted the day!  Oh, I forgot have to check all the news sights, might miss something.

My name is Debbie and I am a computerholic.

That is exactly how I feel superjaybrd! Thank you!!! Oh my goodness you made me laugh out loud! If my computer went down, I would be like a junkie looking for a fix! You would see me on the news "Woman breaks into house to use computer, claims she's a computerholic."

The last couple of months I have come to realize how blessed I am. I recently received a promotion at work, our company is for some strange reason, flourishing in this economical crisis, I received good news on the results of my MRI. I have been having strange headaches which they have now decided are Occipital Migraines. I really am blessed, I am in good health, my children and grandchildren are in good health, I have a job (these days that is the best blessing), a home, good friends, and food to eat. I am thankful for all these blessings. I am not trying to sound like I am bragging, I am truly thankful!
