Email...
I check my email WAY too often.
What do I think is going to happen if I go a day without turning on the computer? I'm a stay-at-home writer-mom for Pete's sake. What information is going to arrive via email that needs to be dealt with RIGHT NOW!?
What can't wait 24 hours?
The blog-job makes it hard NOT to be living online. So I can blame part of this addiction on the blog-job, but the rest is just my silly need for constant contact.
I need help.

The semester just ended and I have a whole lot more time on my hands than I am used to and being at home with the toddler really drives me to the computer. Also, because of this change in my schedule I have been having trouble sleeping (that and the allergy meds I'm on) and so I'm up late at night, only to wake up early with the toddler, and nothing "new" has happened online since I was last on. It is really quite embarassing to admit.
I check my e-mail about 600 times a day. Usually there's nothing.
