Am I too involved with the internet?
Probably. I go to the internet for a lot of things, a lot of reasons. And I spend too much time there.
I've cut down on the amount of time I spend on Facebook, and I don't get on every day (besides, it pushes stuff to my phone).
But my email is very active, and I like to keep up with and do maintenance on that.
I also get movies and some TV shows on the web.
I constantly use the web to explore topics of interest to me: Music, photography, food, and foreign retirement destinations. For that matter, I subscribe to email letters and blogs on those topics, as well.
And that is just what I do on the internet.
The total amount of time I spend on the computer, not just browsing the internet, makes that my number one recreational activity, on a par with sleeping. Not that high a bar, I don't sleep
What does all this mean? Well, maybe my social skills are atrophying. Maybe it contributes to a certain lack of movement when it comes to doing unpleasant things (which mostly includes housework and exercise). My computer is certainly the go-to distraction when I am procrastinating.

It is so wierd. I am so grateful to my schedule for getting me up and out and doing things. I have known since I was a kid that I would stay home and read all the time with no structure. That is why I went to college when no one else did. I needed something. I felt like such a failure as a hippie. I would never opt to have nothing to do for more than a few days. I think I would become monumentally depressed. Love you
Well, you know, that could happen to me. Right now, lying around in bed seems like an acceptable alternative to whatever it is that I would have to do when I got out of bed, but that could change when there isn't anything I HAVE to do when I get up.
I am able to get up and moving when there is a compelling reason to do that, without anxiety or problems. But ordinary scheduled stuff, you know, like work, doesn't provide that motivation...
