I have managed to still have a life outside the realms of the Internet quite successfully I think. Maybe it's because most of the time I'm working on my dissertation in my computer, so it's not a real effort to be online and read the posting from time to time, as well as, snoop around and visit other sites. I still cook (I love cooking, that's one thing I have in common with Jake), I still go out with my friends, I still go to the movies,I read books before going to bed (although lately I've been reading Leslie's stories and others from fanfiction) but I watch less TV than I did before seeing Brokeback Mountain, to tell you the truth, but that it's good. Too much BS on TV anyway.
