Eyes glued to the computer screen.

Hey there. I am staring at my computer screen. I can't seem to put it away. The computer, I mean. I'm addicted. It's not healthy.

I'm really sleepy right now. I'm yawning. I should be putting this laptop away, turning it off, and opening Trickster's Choice. But I can't because my eyes won't move off from the screen.

I think I'm going to need to have a day free of my computer. It's necessary at times, times when I let myself just stare at it for hours on end; watching YouTube, checking Facebook, checking eBay, checking my e-mail, and watching Netflix. I seem to forget that there are other things to do besides watching multiple episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This is one of those times.

I've been watching Buffy the Vampire a lot. I'm in the middle of season two. Bleh. One day, I watched seven episodes! SEVEN!!!! I have issues!!!

I mean, I have a book I need to finish and more waiting after, homework that needs to be done, and then there's the future to think about! What college am I going to go to after I finish my basics at the community college? What am I going to do after college?

Wow. That just got way more complicated than it was supposed to. I was just ranting about how I can't seem to turn my computer off and actually do something with my life. I could make a YouTube video (scary thought!), I could write a blog (doing that now!), I could pursue my love of food (who knows, maybe I could do something with that?), I could write a short story (I really need to practice that if I love it so much), and I could do my homework! The possibilities are endless.

I like my computer though. It does bring me some joy. YouTube is better than television, Facebook keeps me in the social world, eBay helps me earn some extra cash, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer is just downright awesome. So I guess I'll keep it. I just need to moderate my time on it. Fun fun.

Question: What's the website you could spend hours upon hours on??
