My husband had a good laugh this weekend – and at my expense, too.
On Saturday our internet connection was iffy. Sometimes you could get connected and if you were stupid enough to log out, might not be able to get back in two seconds later. It was frustrating.
On Sunday morning I couldn’t get to the internet at all. So of course I ranted to my husband about it. That’s when he laughed.
Sure, he was laughing at the person who used to not care about the internet. Who was lucky to respond to your e-mail within a month of it being sent. When I didn’t own a laptop, I rarely used the computer.
Somewhere between writing and querying and reading blogs, I became obsessed with the internet. Or to be more accurate – my e-mail. I probably can blame that on querying – since it’s responses I’m looking for anyway. And not having access to my e-mail kind of makes me crazy. Crazy enough for my husband to laugh.
Oh well, it’s not like he doesn’t make me laugh on a daily basis. I guess it’s only fair he gets his turn. Still, if the internet isn’t fixed soon, he’ll start hearing me growl!

It's amazing what the obsessive clicking to check for responses can do to a girl, eh?
Yes - it's insane! I could check my e-mail and then not 5 minutes later would have to check again.
It doesn't help that I can be a bit obsessive to begin with!
You're not alone.
