Katie Couric was interviewing a female guest who admitted being addicted to the internet. She said she was on Facebook for more than 10-hours a day. The interview lasted 15-minutes but I miss the last 5-minutes because I had to, Like my friends dancing hamster, pin 40 new pins on Pinterest, RT 100 posts on Twitter and post this to HumorOutcasts.

My friends are Facebook hounds, email essayists and science website devotees.
I spend just enough time on Facebook to let everyone know I still exist and keep track of what is happening with people. I check my emails a few times a day, and try to answer the ones from my best friends quickly. Pinterest can be addictive, but I don’t spend time on it every day.
I prefer to fritter away my Internet time on free brain games, creative writing websites (including online fiction or humor writing classes) and funny websites.
I also spend a lot of computer time writing, of course.
This causes some of my friends to get hurt and/or annoyed when they and I are not on the same page (pun intended), especially if I have been spending my time on free brain games instead of something more important. I plead guilty, and will take my lumps.
Thank you Kathy for your well written editorial that only proves that we need a break from the internet. Have a great (outdoor) weekend 😉
I blame the parents because the parents don’t get blamed for enough stuff!
Yes Bill I blame my parents for giving me the genes to produce these mad internet skills.
Ha! I’m addicted to the internet too. Very sad. I need to go read a book or something.
Reading books is one of my favorite thing to do but I have to order them from the internet. It’s a vicious cycle Mario, lol.
So much to do. So little time to do it. 😉
LB, I never turn my computer off for fear of missing that dancing hamster with the goats who scream like people!
