Am I Addicted?

Internet Addiction, Do I have time to read and write?

When you find something that you enjoy, it’s easy to get addicted to it. You crave it, and you can’t have it, then it drives you nuts. It’s real easy to get caught up in the Internet. There is an endless array of things to do. I know that I use to spend hours on the Internet. A lot of it was spent in chartrooms and in reading and typing up email. Now a lot of my time is spent looking at blogs, typing up my blog posts, and thinking up new blog posts. Someday, I hope to have a nice following behind my blog. It’s been worth it. The time spent each day writing and brainstorming gives me a chance to relax. For the most part, my posts aren’t very deep. Some posts are better than others, and some perhaps are lame. I have that, I learn from other bloggers. I know have a routine that I use for creating my posts. Largely, it revolves around paper and pen. It’s focused on a notebook that is always around me.

Unlike Ethan’s notebook, my notebook is actually written or partially written posts. I do have another one that I jot down possible topics. Then to make matters even more confusing , I schedule my posts. They rotate through the week. Occasionally, I shove ideas to the side. Sometimes, life throws you something that just needs to be expressed. By using my notebook, I get a chance to do a rough draft of each post. Should I lose the idea while working with it in the notebook, I can switch to M.S. Word. Once the article is written in Word, then I can take through grammar checker and spell checker. The blog can take a half hour to an hour of my time each day. Not to mention, the time spent doing research. I mainly use research for when I do my animal and plant posts. The facts, that I put out on my blog need to be as factual as possible. I guess you could say that the blog does take up some of my time.

Now, I won’t say that the internet rules my life. My hobbies take time each week too. My animals have to be feed and watered. My plants need to be watered. I have to be up at church each week on Tuesday. Honestly, a large part of my blog work is done off-line. My animal and plant posts start off like any other posts. I begin with a small paragraph and then hit the books. My reading is not affected by the net. If anything is affected by the internet, it would be my writing.

Yeah, my personal writing may be slightly affected by the internet. Still, writing letters isn’t a strong point for me. I always end up stock piling emails till the weekend. I suppose it’s my own laziness really. I have friends, that I would die if they ever got a letter from me.

The time, that I used to spend chatting has been cut back. I still chat on occasion, but not for hours on end. I suppose that the blog cuts into my chat time, but not by not. I don’t even call people on the phone all that much. I do however enjoy hearing from friends and talking with friends. Again, there are friends that I think would love to hear from me. The fact that, I don’t use the phone has nothing to do with the internet.

It’s true, I’m crazy about being away from the blog for any extended period of time. I’ve really got into a schedule. I make a point to try and get my posts done before 7:00 p.m. I don’t think it’s the internet that takes my time. The computer is where my time is spent period. I really do not want to be on the net any longer than necessary.

About Yesterday's Post

Yesterday's post is all about this awesome survey.   I was first contacted by the guy doing the survey on Sunday or Saturday.  Honestly, I wasn't sure that I wanted to provide a link for the survey's site.  Monday when I got home, I ran through the survey.  I urge anyone who visits my site if they are a part of the LGBT community to take part in this survey.  It's providing him with information, and providing us a glimpse into the family values in our community.  As luck would have it, he contacted me over the phone and I told him that I would be more than happy to provide a place on my site for a link.  If you are partnered , hold a marriage license , or have kids and are a part of the community at large please take part in this survey.  Thanks and I promise tomorrow, that everything will return to normal.  See yesterday's post for the link.

Changes to the site ?

I've been looking at my blog and the stats, that come from web counter.  I look at the stats at least once a day, sometimes twice a day.  I glimpse at the keyword usage so I know how people are finding the site.  I look at the visitors. Returning and first time visitors are what I am looking for each day.  On any given night, I normally have 1 or 2 returning visitors.   

According to the website, that I use to get my stats from, low numbers of returning visitors may suggest that a site owner may want to change the blog.  I don't relish restarting the blog.  Instead of restarting the blog, I'm thinking of doing a little bit of reinventing. In the mean time, do I keep the hunks?  Do I lose the fast facts?  I just want to a little place to call my own.  Somewhere, that people can come and learn about me or the world through my eyes and mind. Night everyone.
