I had a chance to be on mylot yesterday night. However I didn't do so. Why? Because my mind had been cluttered by office work- most of it on computers and other online work since last many days. So I picked up a novel which I had not read since last few weeks and probably read 70 to 80 pages! I also read a few short stories. It felt good. I think we all ought to be away from Internet for some time as it refreshes us.

@Janet357 it is by an Indian author. I would perhaps bring out a short review of it here once I complete it.

@Janet357 it is a romantic and drama nocel- the genre I don't like much. My wife gifted it to me! Initially, I did not find it interesting but gradually, I got the interest in it.

I limit myself when it comes to the Internet--very easy to get 'lost'!

@GreatMartin yes but sometimes we are unable to discipline ourselves and keep on overworking on the Internet.

I am online most of the time because I do my writing work. However, the days when I catch up on posting for my four blogs I get tired so then I cannot come on myLot until the following day. Otherwise, I try to be here at least for some time every day.

I understand, sometimes we have to pause for a moment so that our minds can be calm.

That’s a good reason not to be here. We spent a long weekend away from technology and enjoyed ourselves.

@db20747 well I still never get bored with mylot and always find something worthwhile. Yet sometimes it is the overall working on the Net that gets me bored.
