Control yourself, man! I was almost hit one time by someone who was text messaging while driving. Bad, bad idea.

Yeah, I just told that to someone with AS in real life and he said "What the hell?"

It's taken me away from my time and now it's just the internet that does it. I don't come here much but I am still online and I can't seem to get off unless I have to go to bed or shower or do other things or go to work.

Whatever I do seems to have this narrow focus inhibiting myself in moving on to another task ; it's as being in a closed loop almost locked in the moment of thought. Once/if you are able to shake it off through various means such as the above,^another fixation is waiting for you in this viscious cycle.
This is one major theme for my entire life.........this can be my special interest or not; it permeates into anything/everything I do.

My wife works for one of the major cell companies, I always have the latest gadgets. In this case, my phone can read aloud from text, and I can used voice recognition to post.
(Although sometimes the voice recognition gets things very wrong with comical results: while using it to text my wife, I said "I'm turning on Cranes Nest" it wrote "I'm turning on Jane's breast" lol the 1st is a street, the 2nd is grounds for divorce!)

Luckily I hate using the internet on phones because I don't like texting nor like the layouts of the place here and how things look everywhere else. So it sure keeps me off the internet and from here. But am I anxious to get back online? Neah. That's how I know I don't have a true internet addiction or I be going crazy out in public without it, same as on trips. I didn't even like using it on the Wii either so I deleted the browser off the hard drive and 500 points were wasted.
My husband even got rid of the internet off my phone because I wasn't going to use it so why pay the extra money? But he kept it on his phone since he uses it.
