This is my online life sucker.
The fact that I can sit at a table with any of you and take all your money makes me smile and get lost in the moment.
What online nonsense sucks all your time?

I found this rather amusing after my last post.

    My online life sucker used to be World of Warcraft, but I am taking time off of that right now, and it's turned into my blog/facebook/twitter . . . so basically online social networking.

    I play hold 'em a little bit but most of it involves blog and social network stuff.

    Facebook. I try to stay away, but I am defenseless against it. I even cleared out my friends list. Still I sit and fill out stupid questionnaires and leave status updates. It's pathetic.

    Mafia Wars on Facebook. It's just mindless enough…

    What doesn't suck up my time? blogging/google reader and playing settlers of catan online.

    and yes..I'm a sucker for facebook quizzes….even though a friend has the theory that one takes a multitude of facebook quizzes when one is depressed. I don't agree. what's not to like about being able to brag that you can recognize EVERY SINGLE TOY from the 80s and bee 99% of the people who took the quiz. Bragging rights galore.

      dang it. (oops..sorry..language)… I meant "beat 99% of the people who took the quiz"… hmmm..that doesn't sound right. sounds violent.

    As I read the title of this post, I thought "what the heck?". Los just got thru telling me I'm being sucked in by social networking & not giving those I love enough face time. Then I read the last line. You are cracking me up today! They have medication for ADD & ADHD now.

    My first response was google reader. But, on the other hand if I wasn't unemployed I would stay behind! And I get plenty of face time with hubby since he, too, is unemployed. I need a little break from the madness of 4 walls. So I come into our daughter's old (I guess since she graduated college in May it's now her old bedroom) room & get on the ancient desktop (10 years & still running fine). It's my escape in my own house. I love reading blogs. Better than what's in the newspapers!

    You taught us a lesson in stepping away for a very long month in January! We all need to use a stopwatch (on most of our phones) & just see where we are spending your time. Kind of scary, huh?

    Looks like you're pretty darn close to being short stack on that table to me. :P

    twitter, facebook, and my blog!

  21. @lisareid 4 August 2009 at 3:51 pm #

    World of Warcraft (although less so these days), twitter, facebook, blogs. Sounds like "the usual" in this crowd.

    http://www.freerice.com is where it's at. I can practice my word skills.

    Webcomics and LOLcats. And blogs. If I find new webcomics or blogs I like, I'll go back and read ALL the archives. I just finished reading the blog Pawcurious.com, about a SoCal Veterinarian, and I constantly check it for new posts! Checking for new posts seems to take up most of my time.

    I've actually tried to cut back and make most of the blogs 'Saturday only,' but the webcomics usually have a schedule, so I only check those when I know there's going to be a new one.
