Do you ever sit down to play your favorite game, and five hours later you find yourself still not logged in? It seems once you log into your computer you can be distracted so easily from your original plans.
I find this happening all the time. I have time off from work, and tell myself I am going to play 8-10 hours that day. I usually end up playing 2-3 hours instead.
What distracts me from my gaming? It seems like almost everything does. I even tell myself sometimes that I am instantly double clicking my game of choice icon as soon as my computer loads.
It rarely happens. I first say to myself I better check my email to see if I have any comments on my blogs, facebook, and Youtube. I respond to any comments.
Usually next I than want to see real quick what is on Twitter. The next thing you know an hour or two has gone by.
I than find myself checking my RSS reader to skim new posts. I get drawn in, and end up spending an hour or two reading posts, and leaving comments.
The next thing you know some kind of sports is on TV. I try to draw myself away, but every time I end up staying until the game is over.
The list just keeps going, and going. The next thing I know its 9pm, and I wonder where all my gaming time went that day.
