Wow...

I just went on a weekend trip away from any contact with computers. I went to see my great aunt for her birthday, who just turned 91. She's doing pretty well for her age.

When I came back this evening, I found out that this place can get really busy. I went through 2, sometimes 3 pages of threads for the more popular forums. And I was only gone 2 and a half days! Wow, this place is really hopping!

LoL Force - I went camping for 2 days and I was already twitching and getting nervous sweats the first night. How did you get through 2 days without a PC??

Call me jaded but once you have sat here and talked with 4 friends at once, watched American hisotry X and listened to the new disturbed CD all at once...fishing just seems....sigh...mind numbing...

Hahaha, for the past 7 years I have gone to a summer camp (No computers!), the first 4 years for 1 month, and the last 3 for 2 months. I don't even know how I do it, but somehow it didn't even bother me. I won't be going this summer though =( so it'll be the first computer filled summer for me.

There was a bunch of other things I needed to get done, and I didn't need the comp for that.

Addicted to your comp, eh? I'm glad I don't go through computer withdrawl.

No kiddin'! I heard there were some neat things "outside".

Seriously though, I don't get out a whole lot. I just go to school, stay late all the time, come home, do my assignments, go on the net for a few hours and then go to bed. I'm not one of those "cool" and "popular" people, so I'm not invited to parties.

Outside? Isn't that where the big blight yellow thing is? It hurts too much to be there.
