Where have I been?

Thu Jul 5, 2007, 11:15 PM
Some might be asking this because I haven't appeared on AIM In some time now. I've decided that AIM is a huge distraction in my life and there are times where I'll sit in front of it for hours hoping someone will log on, or I'll sit there and play with someone for hours and get nothing done. There's nothing wrong with this actually, except the fact that I allow my self to do it far more often than I should. That's where it leaches into the realm of addiction rather than a good social tool.

So, to rectify this I've turned it off when I'm at work. I can't let this thing get me fired cause it shows me being unproductive. So I no longer log on while I'm there. I've also stopped logging on all the time when I get home that way I can play a game without little breaks for each "blreep" I get on AIM and I can play straight for a few hours. Lastly, when I'm drawing or writing I have it turned off as well as there it's also a distraction and doesn't help me keep my mind focused.

I'll pop on now and then! Don't think I've disappeared, cause I haven't. Just expect this blue scaled rear to be more of a rare sighting ^..^

aww :( I'm sorry to hear that, that talking to people is a distraction *sigh*
in a way it very much is, but that doesn't stop me tho =P but well, it's your decision, you want to be productive, then go work ^..^
I hope to see you sometime, which is probably gonna be doubtful since I'm not using Trilian anymore, so I don't logon to my AIM account :( but I hope I'll hear from you eventually somehow
take care :wave:

Let me rephrase it then.

I have a problem, that being I sit and chat all day long and don't get anything done. Multi-tasking is a terrible thing, as your mind doesn't focus and I think this is one reason I can't get things done in my life is because I try to "AIM" chat and "Play a game" and "Draw a picture" and "read a book" ... it just doesn't work =)

So! It's not that chatting with others that's the problem. It's my addicted desire to be social and talk/RP... probably more the RP part of things than talking.

Either way! I need to control this addiction =)
