Addiction

Hi. My name is Danielle. I'm an Internet-holic.

Yes, my friends, it's true, and I guess it's time for me to accept my addiction. Two major events occurred today to help me step out of the phase of denial. First, our laptop computer that is always conveniently located on our coffee table downstairs officially died. That computer has done us well, as it was purchased six years ago and survived a lot of wear and tear. But it's done, ka-put, funeral is tomorrow. To make matters worse, our desk top computer (not-so-conveniently-located upstairs) has been losing its Internet connection pretty frequently for the last two days, and it only seems to work when Brian makes it home to fiddle with it. As soon as he leaves, it quits. So, needless to say, my computer access has been limited, and it's killing me.

I love the Internet. It offers a limitless amount of possibilities, information, and entertainment. It allows us to share our lives with each other, despite the thousands of miles between us. But I may need to make some adjustments since I just lost my main mode of access, the laptop. So let me figure out a new system, give me a couple days to reevaluate, and I'll be back. I promise.
