While I was on vacation..........

[SoreArms]

I had spent so many days with out direct acces to a computer, so much time doing real life things that I deprogrammed myself from the cyber routine and started reflecting on the time wasting that I do on here. I decided that upon my return, my visits to cyberland and EF, would be minimal through out the day and only during down time from other important activities, specially work. Well, it took all but 3 days to get back to being the same cyber sloth I've always been, wasting away company time on here, stuck at my desk chair at home instead of being out and about because I want to see whats new. I am truely disgusted with myself.

I completely understand. Why be disgusted? Instead of going straight home, do something else. Two nights ago I was complaining to someone that I was bored at night (I would go home, eat and then log onto to EF). Yet, I have all of these paints, canvases, my jewelry making stuff, etc.

So, last night, I went home (still logged onto to EF and msn to chat with people), but I finally started this abstract piece that has been in the planning stage for weeks. The only time I looked at the computer was to create a post about cartoons and answer PMs.

I looked at the work I've done so far on this abstract piece this morning and I felt proud. Tonight, I will work on it some more, and likely spend less time on EF.

Hammy a plat? WTF?

Anyway, you and me are in the same boat SA. Hate working, slack off alot. Its a waste of life really. Think about all the hours you're at work doing fuckall. What I need to do is find a way to retire, or just do something I enjoy (like painting). I don't need alot of money to support my lifestyle. But I need some.
Let me know if you want to rob a bank or something.

You paint? That's awesome!

you see, I go home with all sorts of plans and plots, but I then manage to log on ("I want to see if nay responded to.........", "are so and so still flaming each other".., etc...). Sometimes I tell myself "just check this and then get out" but it never happens, I get sucked in. I'm jsut a person that doesn't know moderation, it's always been all or nothing. Don't be surprised if you guys don't see me around at some point. This place (or my inability to tay away from this place) is really hurting my professional life and in the long run, my career and livelyhood.

You should be doing these things instead of hanging out here.

I need to watch my diet over the summer, thus hanging out, happy hours, going out to eat at least 2x a week isn't an option for me. Plus, I really need to start getting ready for the fall semester and save some travel money. So, I need to do indoor activities.

What about checking in once or twice a week?

I actually plan on doing some traveling in the fall too, I wan to go to "dia de los muiertos" (day of the death-celebration of the dead) to Mexico, probably Oaxaca, where they have real traditional festivities, Nov 2nd, Mexico's Holloween.

I miss being the social creature I once was, although I stopped all that because i got sick of the superficiality. It's like once i found EF, you guys became my foster social group and I stopped trying or caring about socializing in the real world. I need to find a good blend. This post does not mean that I'm depressed, more like a little frustrated with myself.

Don't worry, this wanting to live in the "real world" is just a phase.
