Internet Addiction

[T-Rav]

I've had a long and sordid past with "Internet Addiction". I started in 6th grade with my 300 baud modem, my Commodore 64, and BBS's. I spent a good 2-3 years from 8pm at night until 3-4 in the morning fucking around on the BBS's.

I laid of for a while and didn't pick it back up until the days of the 9600 baud modem (pre-14.4) days. That got me through college. Then once again I took a break.

Then the days of my cable modem and T-1's came around. I had a little website that I spent way too much time working on. I was on the computer roughly 20 hours a day (i didn't sleep much due to un-natural circumstances that i won't mention in a public forum).

Now, I believe I have a very healthy balance. I try not to spend more than 8-10 hours a day on the Internet (mostly working). I try to limit my entertainment to other activities. Meaning...I don't mix business with pleasure (as much as humanly possible.)

There you have it...
