h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I've recently added a 'where the chats at' link to my PS, and I hate it - but can't bear to remove it.

I find myself sitting in the evenings and clicking the link then in peoples conversations......I just can't resist it.

Help needed.

Should I remove the link and do what I used to do or keep the link and further allow this bad habit to develop.

It's a worry.

*lies on the couch with a notebook* *snore*.. Whaaa??.. *cough*

Would you care to tell me about all this lurking?

I think it began when I didn't get a reply to my application to join the lurkers - this is where I met Megachedda btw.

Shortly thereafter I noticed that some folks had a button on their PS which took me to a list of recent postings.

This is where things took a turn for the worse - I copied the link and stuck it on my PS, then if there was nothing going on in my conversations I'd just press the link and look into other peoples convos.

Seems pretty harmless I know, but now I find myself sitting here every evening watching other peoples lives go by and hardly noticing my own.

Worrying

Your advice please.

*scratches her nose with the end of the pen.. leaving everywhere*


Ummmm... Do you find these conversations interesting?

Sometimes, but mostly I'm just nosey - read a couple of postings and move on to the next.

If it isn't a private convo I may even post if I'm interested enough. As a result of this I have squillions of threads on my PS now too. Very untidy.

Do you think there is any hope for me.

So you have collected these conversations?


*makes a note to subscribe to Fizzy's account*..

Is it bad lil - could I recover - or am I doomed

One last question; Do you have problems sleeping at night?

*hears a gentle snore*


hmmm.. seems she can sleep like a baby


*writes out verdict 'Not Insane.. just plain nosy £520.00 exc VAT'*

Sorry about that lil, dozed off here on the sofa and didn't waken until 4:30am.....at which time I stumbled off to bed don't usually leave the computer logged on

Now - about a payment plan

Ummmpf - I guess I'm the wrong person to ask for advice on this problem

You know, I guess you're not alone, though.

Do you too then Bel

I always did but with the addition of this button on my PS I appear to be doing it now on a professional scale.

I don't have the time to , I can hardly keep up with my own conversations, PR etc. But I have always an open ear for 'Klatsch & Tratsch' as we'd say here. (gossip & schmooze)

Well then if I find anything interesting I'll keep you informed

Great! You now have official permission to at your heart's plaisir and tell me all the news!
