I can't get my mind off mylot  

Does that mean that they have computers in the classroom? If so, how cool is that!

Yeah, where abouts are you from?

Over here it is the norm to have tons of computers in each class.

I go to a technology college, so we have the added extra of extra funding every year.

But there are 900 pupils, and 80 staff, there are a total of 800 computers in the school - desktops and laptops.

Basically, its 1 computer for every student.

We can use them whenever we want, and how ever much we want, on the web or any program for free, all the time.

I also take dida (Diploma in digital aplications / advanced ICT)

So i do advanced ict at college.

Do you not have anything like this where you are?

Well, I'm not in school and haven't been for awhile. My children have limited access to computers, but they are young, not in college.

It is addicting. I can't believe the times I find myself sitting trying to think of an original discussion, which is just about impossible to do.

Can you imagine a mylot detox program? "Hello, my name is Katherine and I'm addicted to mylot". LOL.

Ha, ha I do the same thing. I think of things and then I get busy and forget them by the time I get home. In fact, yesterday I made sure I took a notebook with me, just in case I got an idea, but then I forgot that I had the notebook. Go figure.

I do that to my wife as well and all she does is laugh. It is addicting huh? I love it though. I've even taken photos of her at work and did discussions along those lines in the past.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Let her laugh - you're earning $$$ !!!

Actually my boyfriend says the same thing to me. We will be talking and he'll say "you could start that as a discussion on mylot". I'm beginning to think there should be a 12 step program. LOL.

I think its important to be validated in life and to feel that people think what we have to say is important. So we post discussions and then run to the computer to see if we've got any responses. LOL.

I also feel that it is important to be validated by others, but why do you feel that it is so important to find that validation on the web at the expense of your real life and family? Why don't you try getting it from your mate? He would be happy to do that, as this is a function of being in an intimate relationship, but you cannot see that. Instead, I am sitting here, feeling alone most of the time, hoping that you care enough to share some of your life and your perceptions of it with me, to no avail. I feel cut off, relegated to being of almost no significance as you feed your addiction to a screen and a keyboard. I am, at this point, so despondent and disappointed that I feel almost hopeless and helpless to compete with the cyber world that you have cloistered yourself within. I am afraid that I have lost the love of my life to this addiction of yours.

Thanks for the comment about my headache. Whats worse is when you get a headache at work and have to continue to have to wait on customers, but yes its much better today. Thank you. I don't always run to the computer in the middle of the night, but because I went to bed so early last night with my headache, I woke up at 4 because I had already slept so long. What else to do, but mylot!

I know, I used to work in a pub, getting a headache when you are working in those places is the absolute worst! Even if I went to bed early I would not be up early the next day! Me and sleep are the best of friends when we get the chance to get together, but if I did ever start to get up really early of a morning I am pretty sure I would use the spare time to be on here too!

Awwww, you are so kind. What no mylot digest today? I didn't get mine, did you get yours? As for being a mylot counselor, I'm not so sure that would work out since you are so addicted yourself. You'd be getting ideas from people that sought your help. LOL.

True I am afraid. It will have to be self help then.

Thats true, I am alot more informed about news events than I ever was, thats for sure.

Thats pretty funny. Sounds like you are introducing yourself in a 12-Step program. I like learning about other cultures also. I love the diversity that mylot offers. Thats really cool that you take care of your father, it takes a special person to do that kind of thing.
