8. Probably too much.
I work on my computer and the Internet virtually non-stop. So I visit DU both for breaks and to do casual political research. It's far from the worst habit one could have.

10. 80% of my time at the computer is spent either
here or playing Everquest. And honestly, I'd say between the two it's about even. Which is scary because two years ago Everquest was the only thing I really did.

Details !! :D

I used to play like crazy but stopped after awhile when dungeons of froglock thingy got released.

Where and what do you play? are you in a big guild or anything?

My guild had just started farming the elemental planes, but the server turned into a nuthouse.. there were only two big guilds on the server(vallon zek) and we did anything to screw eachother.. and when it took like 2 hours to get a goddamn bracer I just realized eq was more of a job then fun.

I'm not playing anything now really, and just waiting for world of warcraft

65 rog btw :D

11. I do have a real job, where using the computer is not easy
thank God.

And friends, well, I have some, I just can't remember who they are. And there are these little people growing up in the house, I am not sure who they are either.
And this woman, she looks very familiar, she keeps asking me to do things.

Oh, my. I am addicted.

Ahhhh, who cares?

12. I keep the window open on my desktop at work.
I pop in and out every hour or so. Then when I get home I log in again. So you could say just about all day.

13. If I'm lucky
Most days, if I'm lucky, I get to spend about an hour or so reading DU. I work lots of hours and should probably be thankful for that. I wish I did have more time to spend here, because there are lots of interesting discussions that I miss all the time. Then again, maybe that's a good thing. If I did have more free time, someone would probably have to come pry my keyboard from my cold, dead fingers.

15. Now that I am in between classes
I spend about 3 or 4 hours a day. I work midnights and get home about 8:00. I usually sit here until about noon and then go to sleep. On my days off I can easily spend 7 or 8 hours here.
