too much time, although of late it has reduced. It usually coincides with my desire to purchase something resulting in hours & hours of research

I'm on the t'inter-web all day every day. Part of my job involves it. Wouldn't say I'm addicted though, because I love being away from the computer. At all possible opportunities my phone is switch off and I apparently drop off the face of the planet too.

For example, on the AR, I won't be contactable by anyone unless they're at the AR & talking to me face to face. Perfect.

How upset do you get when you log back into the forum and there are only 3 threads that have been updated since your last visit.

The phrase 3-some has a whole new meaning in our house. We have 3-somes almost everynight, Mr24_7, Mrs24_7 and the laptop! Mr24_7 enjoys it but it's not as fulfilling as i had hoped a 3-some would be!(just to be clear there is nothing of a sexual nature happening with the lap top, i simply mean it comes to bed with us!)

I feel i am slowly loosing my boyfriend to the tin'ternet, I get a quicker response from him if I send him an email or leave a message on the forum! hehe! Although saying that, I'm at work right now and totaly abusing our internet access!! ooop!

Is there any cure for internetitus?

I tried to go 24 hours without logging on to the internetz...

Problem is all my friends are internet addicts too, so we talk on the phone kind of like this;
"Did you see the thread on...?"
"Have you seen the state of so and so and her new blog?"
"OMG, go check grabage&waffle.com, you won't believe your eyes!"

I aimed for 24 hours but only managed 18. I mean when ebay stuff arrives you have to leave feedback right?

Its a disease!! 18 hours is quite an achievment! im lucky to get Mr24_7 to get off the internet for 18 minutes!! He says it's all research! So being the wonderful girlfriend that I am, i try to take an interest, so far i've managed to use ebay to search for shoes and bags! And here I am on a motorbike forum...how good am i!?

If it's all research and you've been surfing for a few years you should be a virtual genius, just like me. Which means I'm only clever when logged on, to log off would make me dumb and just like all the rest of the sheeple. I am a mouse potato
