    I have gotten addicted to this site again. How about you.

    I know they say “everything in moderation”  I’m having a hard time with that,  Do you think you have an addiction to this site?


    It wouldn’t be the first time. In the old daze I’d have to give my mouse to my neighbor so I could function

    Addiction? What does that mean? That it cuts into my Kindle time and that I've let 4 cooking shows go unwatched? That I stay curious about other members to the point of mentioning them in my prayers? That dinner is often "in just a minute"? Yes, I'm addicted.......

    itsmee

    You are so fun and real. What are you reading on your Kindle? I sent my Kindle back. I have this terrible feeling that the person who gifted me with the Kindle will not think well of me when she finds out.
    For some reason she thinks I’m a voracious reader. We couldn’t make it work anyway.”voracious” tee hee.

    I'm reading TAKING FLIGHT, a story about and adolescent on the run with a Alzheimer's victim. It's cute and fun to read. so sorry you couldn't make it work. Truly
    itsmee

    That sounds soooo good. It kinda makes me want that Kindle. I could get it when my money is returned. Actually, I wouldn’t touch it to make it work. I have been so burned by tech that it gives me a honest headache. I could pay our tech guy ......
    I want to read Dean Koontz on Kindle. (I know you know)
    itsmee

    I love that you mention some of us in your prayers. xxx itsmee xxx

    I know what you mean. I actually aquired a slight "spare tire" around the middle from all the sitting on the computer. Need to get rid of it, before it gets too big.

    itsmee

    I’m making a “to do” list. The items on the list must be done before I can touch these keys. The computer has always been a problem for me. I’ve noticed that our responses are similar and I have acquired a spare time too.

    I caught up with some things about 4 month ago and did not come here very often. But I fell off the wagon again and here I am, like clockwork, every day!
    itsmee

    It always makes me laugh when I pass by your response again and I read, “I fell off the wagon again and here I am like clockwork, every day.”
    Who knows why that strikes me so funny ... hoo nose?
    mycatsmom

    Ann, maybe that's why I got fat.

    Yes sometimes we don't realise how long we are on here, and nothing else gets done, never mind  it keeps us out out of mischief.

    For me addiction no. Dedication yes.I know what you mean itsmee, something about this site that keeps bringing them back.

    itsmee

    Glad you moderators are here. Thank you.

    Nope...no addiction. I'm here when I have the time but I have other interests which are equally enjoyable. I do like a lot of the people that I've met here and enjoy "seeing" them when I do arrive.     :)

    I’m on here when I can. I enjoy answering questions comically, honestly, from the far-out, farcically, beautifully, and mercurially. 

    itsmee

    I do improve my vocabulary here. I’ve got to find that Thesaures.

    Yes..addicted,even though I can`t spend as much time on here as I did previously atm...but I miss it like crazy when I`m not here!(Wondering what you guys are all up to...and who`s behaving);-)Lol...No doubt you`ll all have to suffer me a lot more again soon!;-)

    Good for you mils, stay well!

    itsmee

    Stay well miss millie. There is a sweetness in your responses that I really enjoy.
    millie111

    Awhh thanks its:-)..(That`s probably because I `m still 5 years old in my head)!;-)..If you lot all carry on like this I`m going to have to go outside in the freezing cold to buy more tissues!..lol...No,really thanks..you`re all fab...(bar a few)!;-)lol
    itsmee

    I know. I know. I too am four years old in MY head. Kids laugh so much more than adults. Statistically, they laugh 100 times a day. (wild guess) They don’t judge. We be cool. xxx itsmee xxx
    millie111

    its...no wonder they laugh..They don`t pay the bills :-!
    itsmee

    I, dear millie, am not to be trusted with the bills.So says my husband. Everytime I start in on the budget book I write small recipes in the margins. ha ha?

    I think I have found a balance between this site and doing other things...but after I have missed a few days I wonder how everyone here is...you all are my cyber friends!!!

    itsmee

    I am happy that you’re my cyberfriend.I picture you as very tall with dark hair. I know that you are smart, kind, and trustworthy.
    doolittle

    Thanks itsmee

    Bit. My mother advice me not stay so much in this webpage because she is always scared if i let aside learning. 

    itsmee

    Tomorrow I’m going to give myself a certain amount of time to play here. I will not go over this,,,,,,,Good luck to you, jersy. I like your Questions and Answers ... “Everything in moderation” OK?

    I don't know Itsmee, i 'm still addicted but it is weaning off, i miss the guts, get your teeth in Questions, it is getting politically correct, i miss the controversial questions, and controversial Answers, now you get suspended as it may offend someone, or it does not agree with member/s  views, other than that it is a past time. -- when i was younger i was shy and never stood up for myself, as i got older i don't take bullying from any one, Reality or Cyber. As for you Itsmee you don't offend anyone which i like about you, keep it up Cyber Friend.

    itsmee

    Thanks bulletman. You have a good, honest way of expressing yourself.
    You’re a Cyber Friend to me.

    itsmee

    Oh ... Never give it up. Never. Just have control over your usage. Maybe we could write the 12 steps ourselves. Not now ... my brain is a buzzing bee.

    Good one pikkutiiker!
    itsmee

    Hector, I want to be in that club.
    Internet addiction test here lol
    http://www.netaddiction.com/index.php?option=com_bfquiz&view=onepage&catid=46&Itemid=106
    itsmee

    According to that first test I have control over my usage. However just one more point and I would be over the line.
    I used to LOVE chat rooms. So funny. It seems to me that they are just gone now. No body wants to do that.
    The internet is a great distraction from chronic pain.

    Iam here again and can'tstay away, so it hapened   to me too.

    Yes it is, -9 grade Celsius and getting golder.
    itsmee

    pikkutilkeri: You do what I used to do. After you write your response, nothing happens. So you hit it again. Nothing happens. So you hit it again. This can go on a long time before your response shows up. It’s kind of embarassing and I tell you it’s a hard habit to break. We’re used to going really fast.
    pikkutiikeri65

    Notortous dubleclicer hit again. LOL

    Colleen it was pure mistake.

    answerseeker

    If on akaqa, why go ANYWHERE else???????????

    Yes, I'm sorry to say that I'm addicted to this site. I have been since it started. My house is messy, my bills havn't been paid. I am behind on other things too- - - such as my laundry .. I go to bed too late, adn get up too late. ....all b/c of this site. ' course, I look up other sights on the internet, if there's something I'm interested in. And I watch too much TV......but not the mindless shows. I watch a lot of interesting and educational  stuff on the history channel. and other docs.

    After a series of unfortunate events, and my current work load,  I have to say, no, I am no longer dedicated.  I do get a kick out of voting people up when I have a moment or two.

    hector5559

    Good for you Fishy,
