I spend an ungodly amount of time on the net. I’m not afraid to admit it. I’m not afraid to say it has fucked up my life in some ways, same as other addictions I have.

I want to stay busy writing, painting, and photographing. I want to pull myself away from all this and be the artist I want to be. Use the Internet a few hours a day and leave at that.

The media have discussed this issue, but I think given how prevalent the Internet can be and how destructive, it needs more attention.

Personally, I’d love nothing better than to just take my electric typewriter (it’s lighter than the other) and my phone so anyone can call me if thry need me, and just write.

I often feel like such a child, unable to drag themselves away from something that should be easy to just turn off and ignore when I need to.

In other words, I wish I had that willpower that people who aren’t prone to addictions have.
