I find, too that older doesn't necessarily sleep better. Fortunately, Rob doesn't complain. I think he thinks I am the data processing department of our house!

They weren't easily accessable, and he showed little interest (other than to ask me to get directions to EVERYTHING <LOL>). I had given him an AOL screenname, but I was the one who checked it for mail and sent out resume's for him from it. Then, when we came off the road he showed an interest in being able to e-mail family. Then (since we now have cable access) he discovered the internet...Before long I had to set up a network and set up my old laptop for his use just so I could get online <bg>... Then I introduced him to Pogo... <sigh> He spends as much time online as I do now!! So far though he hasn't shown any interest in my Journal, even though I've had him proof a couple of entries. Slowly, he is finding that "the box" has uses!<br>http://journals.aol.com/astaryth/AdventuresofanEclecticMindAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395555111688403818.post-1623827931138522182004-12-08T16:18:00.000-08:002004-12-08T16:18:00.000-08:00I don't know why I find journals and message b...I don't know why I find journals and message boards and blogs so interesting, but I imagine it's my nosey nature. Seriously, I sometimes HAVE to know what's going on in so-and-so's life before I can move on with my night. Even more of a reason is my voyeuristic tendencies...much the same reason I like "reality tv". I like to sit in my bubble (which I'll explain tonight in my OWN journal) and see the problems that others face.

He's also gotten hooked on a couple of the journals I regularly read. But I don't see him really getting into it as much as I am. He has too many other hobbies. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395555111688403818.post-65182688626889855572004-12-08T23:19:00.000-08:002004-12-08T23:19:00.000-08:00You think having a computer in the kitchen is bad ...You think having a computer in the kitchen is bad for the "bottom line"? -- I bought a mini-fridge to put in my little home office here. It's got beer, salsa, onion dip and half of case of Diet Coke in it all times. The chips stay in the kitchen though -- I could easily inhale a whole bag of Lay's while surfing the net. I sound pretty gross right now, don't I? I do.

I used it for email, and research for school. I never got hooked by the chat bug. Once in a while I would post to something on Yahoo's message boards where they discussed a particular news item but I am not one who enjoys arguing so I didn't get too involved in that. I enjoyed playing spades on Yahoo though. I haven't done that in ages though. Journaling consumes too much of my time and I've turned into a regular computer geek as a result. Messing with digital photography is my thrill now. But lately my back has been bothering me so I've been limiting my time online. I have a laptop so I sit in bed which isn't the greatest posture for long bouts online.<br>:-) ---RobbieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
