I had to take a few days leave from the office, I hated the thought for a moment but I took it as an opportunity to cleanse my system from my ander-addiction. From the moment I turn on my Mac till I turn it off, it's Anderson Cooper all day! I'ts like an addiction, I couldn't stop even if I wanted to.
Since I was at home, I was ander-deprived for 4 days and I think it helped me in my rehabilitation. I can't do anything Anderson related at home because my daughter doesn't like him at all.
My officemate (fellow internet addict) and I swore that we would change starting Monday (which happens to be today). We made an agreement that we would turn off our computers 5 minutes earlier so as not to be tempted to overstay in the office.
If you have these symptoms, you are, more than likely, an addict like us:
- You stay in the office more than you should. All your officemates have gone home and you're still stuck in the office browsing the net.
- You'd rather "talk" with your friends online than in person.
- Once in front of the monitor, you no longer talk.
- You don't talk to your officemates anymore but you email them with forwarded messages.
- You'd rather blog your thoughts than actually telling it to people you know.
- You used to love weekends, Saturday and Sunday used to be your favourite days of the week, now it feels more of a torture – not spending 8 hours or more in front of the computer.
- Mondays used to be a drag but now you just can't wait to get your butt in the office.
