To a degree he is correct or I wouldn't be working online, going to college online, and trying to build a business online. However with all of these things up in the air on the internet it is only natural that I spend some real quality time with my computer sometimes. Besides the alternative is to veg out in front of the TV with him at night. Or find something else tto do when I can't sleep. I have been nocturnal and an insomniac for years. That has not changed though he questions whether I am just using the time to spend more time with my computer or if I really have a sleep problem. I really do have a sleep problem. From way before we ever met, plus I have been just like this for the last 8 mos that we have been together have not changed a lick so how he can take exception to my late hours on the web now I do not know.

I'm hooked up on my computer. I can't even pretend that I'm not. At work, I'm always online. At home, I'm always online. When I am out for a while and I come home, the first thing I do is turn on my comp. I think sometimes I do it even before I take my jacket off. However, I won't let the Internet keep me up. I figure I spend do much time online as it is, that I am not going to let it ruin my sleep. I think when I was younger I was more obsessed with it. But I think now I am using the internet more practically because when I am online I am looking for ways to make extra money, but it is also a way for me to stay contacted with work. I don't talk to friends as much as I used to. I don't really care to use AIM or anything like that anymore.

I very rarely chat online except with my customers. Though I will admit I do break to play video games quite a bit, but so what I still clean the house , do the laundry, kiss his butt, etc. so as long as nothing is left wanting I fail to see the harm.
