Wasting Time or Creative Journey

[daxzia]

Okay, I have declared that I am spending FAR too much time on the internet, namely on my LJ. When I get up in the morning, I check my email to see my inbox. Get ready for work, go to work, my work computer is of course, online so....i do my work WHILE messing around on my LJ. Spend 9 hours at work going between my work and LJ. Go home...what do I

Oh my god! My twin!
Same here,I spent too much time on the computer (and LJ especially), and you know what, I don't regret it either!

[daxzia]

HORRAY, I'm not alone!!!! Actually, it's strange but on my day off which is today, i have actually NOT been online for most of the day. it's when i'm free of having to in front of a computer all damn day that i actually don't spend my quality internet surfing and commenting time. Huh, that's funny....Only means that I have more to do when I do get back on!

[daxzia]

AWWW, who's the kid?! So cutttte!!!

See, it's contagious, the internet. especially the LJ if you ask me. And i'm not even trying to fight it! I KEEP COMING BACK FOR MORE!

[daxzia]

awww, what a cutie!!! your cheeks must have gotten pinched a lot when you were a kid.

oh same here, since i started my lj, i have talked with more people than i would say i have at my job and I HAVE TO TALK TO THOSE IDIOTS! And yea, RL to IL is the same thing if you ask me. there are times when i WISH they weren't but they are but i guess i wouldn't want it any other way. if it wasn't for the internet i wouldn't be in touch with my friends and also wouldn't have met such cool people. you included.

I just think that there is going to be a time coming when the internet is not going to be as free as it is today. in "free" i'm not sure exactly what i mean i'm beginning to see things change around here. it's not like it use to be a few years ago. but then again, i'm not as internet savy as i was a few years ago too. so maybe i don't know what i'm talking about. that's probably the case.

Ahahaha!!! You are well and truly BIT by the LJ bug, my dear, and no one is happier than I am!!!

Hey - maybe that email glitch had a good side after all, eh? ^_^

[daxzia]

it sure did. not only did it make me realize that i have a very good medium here to talk to you on but also it gives me a chance to be just as annoying to everyone else as i am to you. HAHAHA

Seriously, i do like this a lot better. it's so addicting and so much fun. I'm glad we decided to use this to talk a lot more.*-*

[befanini]

Ditto, ditto! ♥

HAHAHA!! You know? You are not the only one. When I wake up, I do the same. Checking my mail, and then to check my friend page. And you know, that´s cool!!!

I usually spend my whole day, or the most part of it, in the computer and my eyes end being square XD

And I really have a lot of fun. ^_^ So I happy like this. And you are right, you can really meet cool and nice people ^_^

[daxzia]

(wipes brow) I'm so happy I'm not alone! I found myself not being on too much today until i got done with dinner and after that, i've been on for about two hours now, just replying to comments and going between friend's pages. I could keep this up until 1 am which is what i did last night.

Now i know there's this invention out there....what's it called....oh yeah, books. those thingies with paper inside them. my RL friends tell me that i really need to start holding them and doing this thing called reding...no reading, that's it. they are a bunch of bookworms but you know what??? I AM READING!!!! i'm reading this. that counts.

those know-it-alls......(grumbles as she walks off, not to grab a book but a beer)

[micaela_a]

¬¬ Whoa...wait a second...I´m a bookworm lady, and very proud :) So I´m in the bookworms side (yeah...bookworms party!! )

And I don´t think a reading a comment counts...but perhaps (perverted) fics could work :) And you could drink beer while you are reading :)

And yeah...it´s cool not being the only one, isn´t it?? :) Now go and read!! :D (at least this is a little of reading for you XD)

[daxzia]

OH NO, a bookworm!!!!

LOL no, actually i do have to confess, i have a rather large collection, a mini library if you will in my office but don't go telling my friends. they all are convinced i do nothing but type a keyboard.

darn, reading comments don't count?! but....but what if it uses large words.....can that count?!

and you're right! i can drink a beer and read at the same time.....it's the words getting all dancy in front of me that's the problem :)

[lillypuff]

Heh, I'm in the same boat as you =) Though I don't spend as much time on LJ, I do spen a hell of a lot of time on the computer.

Sunlight? Bah, who needs it ;)

[daxzia]

Pheh, I don't, i know that. Yeah, i have no tan because of it but at least my skin is healthy. Sun only does one thing good for me and that is to make veggies grow for me to eat (mhhhhh, lettuce). i'm sure there's scientific mumbo jumbo about it being necessary to sustain human life but since i have spent the majority of my life in front of a computer, i could prove that wrong.

maybe not....maybe it's best not to challenge science.

[lillypuff]

Heh, I used to work from home on my computer, so I'm pretty sure it's possible ;)

[daxzia]

Really, what kind of work did you do? I'm actually trying to find a home based jobs while i do my full time one. Was it a job like that?
