Yep, I can definitely identify with this one Ashley!!! When I temporarily lost my computer to a trojan horse virus for a week last February, I was practically suffering from withdrawal symptoms!

It’s definitely easy to slip back into old habits. Sometimes I feel like a different person when I’m at home vs. when I’m at school. I hope you get better soon at long last!

I almost posted twice today. I think that is bordering on obsession. “Bordering,” who am I kidding?

I completely understand. I’ve had internet access, for the most part, but no private time to use it. I’ve been secreting myself away to little corners at night with the laptop to let out those things I can’t say to my family, and those things I can’t say to myself. I feel your pain. May you find your muse again soon. I’ll be waiting.

Ha ha. I wonder if the people in my life are paranoid I’ll write about them. Thanks for checking out my blog!

I’ve definitely thought about it, but I keep putting it off. I’ll probably have to ask you advice one of these days. :)

Ha ha. It seemed annoying to copy and paste the few posts I’d written when I was without internet.

Thanks. My iPhone bridges the gaps, but nothing compares to real internet on my laptop.

I agree. But, blogging is a healthy habit, right?

Thanks foster. I’m enjoying the holidays mostly for the time off.

I swear the more you post, the more ideas come to you. Writing about one thing always leads me to several more topics.

Ha ha. I like to take short vacations from the internet, but anything prolonged sounds like torture.

Thanks Liz. I did check out your vlog. I hope you’ll do it again!

i don’t blog as much as you do but i sure do think about my stories as well while the rest of the world is busy with their conversations. I just look at them and ask myself, what about these people can i write about?

LOL You’re as obsessed with your blog as i am. Did you ever consider getting paid for it? Just saying.

I do feel you on the withdrawal symptoms when there’s no internet in sight!! It’s so sad, no?

i don’t blog enough. i had big plans for my blog and i over christmas, and i thought i was going to spend the majority of my time at home catching up on some long overdue blog posts that have been buzzing around my head.

i barely managed one, and i posted it right before my flight back. and it took 5 days to write.

disappointing performance, i’d say. especially since i even have one post ready to go that i typed in ms word on my way home for thanksgiving. copy and paste is hard.

I feel your pain. I was without internet for one day and I had a minor freak out. Glad you made it through!!

Blogging may be an addiction but one I have no intention of stopping. I was semi proud of myself for not blogging one day last week. Sad, huh?

I have the same problem in certain social situations. I should start warning people that I am observing their behavior and more than likely, I’ll blog about it. :)

Welcome back!

Going without the internet for that long is a incredibly difficult thing, I certainly understand. And there’s nothing wrong with keeping your thoughts to yourself and not saying much in “social situations.” That means what you do say, like what you write here, is very thoughtful and not just impulsive and off the top of your head.

I’m impressed that you don’t usually worry that you’ll run out of stuff to blog about because I often worry about that, haha. That’s what usually keeps me from updating, but it takes a lot more to stop you!

See, your lack of blogging kept many of us awake at night. Hopefully, you’re having a great holiday season.
