First Thing In The Morning

I am sitting here at 9:51 in the morning typing on this darned computer. Up until about a year and a half ago, I had never even really used one. Now the first thing I do in the morning, if I don't go to work, is get on this thing. What happened to just getting up, eating breakfast and starting the day. This is a very addictive medium and I am not sure it is a good thing. I read an article in the paper the other day, yes it was just before work so no access to a computer. The article was talking about a book or something intitled Is Google Making Us Stupid. Not that I think I am getting stupid from using the computer but I do believe it playing havoc with my patience and my ability to focus. Seems like if something takes more than 30 seconds I want to go on to the next thing. In the same breath though I must say that I can be on here for hours without realizing it. It's a very very strange situation to say the least. I wonder if other people feel this strange hold the internet has on me. I believe that I must exert a little more self control and just stay off for awhile.
