How do you get off this forum?

Postby TheEqualizer on 11 Jul 2007 21:23

I keep wanting to do something else, like work for instance (pay the mortgage, etc) and even will close my browser but it is not long before I log back on just in case Dirty Martini or Divemistress (and the rest of you guys/gals) has put up something interesting to say.

How do you guys/gals stay off this forum in order to conduct the rest of your lives. I'm suspecting that a lot of you just keep this forum on in the background while you work. Or are all you SC.netter indepedently wealthy but me?

I have it on in the background all day at work and then I sit in front of my computer while I watch TV in the evenings... Crikey, I sound tragic! I DO go out sometimes too!

I am self-employed and my own boss, so my boss orders I must have my Copeland time. :wink:

Also self-employed here. But I'm a long-time forum-using fool, and have learned to regulate my forum participation and still find time to do extra things like work, play with my son, and occasionally perform self-hygiene.

You have been assimilated into the collective and there is no going back. You can't escape the vortex of the forum. Having said that, for the most part I only browse this fantastic place while I am at work so in theory I am getting paid to be here! My boss wouldn't like to hear that but oh well!
I seldom check SC.net when I am home in the evenings or weekends so I can accomplish a few things...like becoming independently wealthy :!:
°My kid wants to be an influencer.
What the hell does that mean?
°It means I’ve failed as a parent.

I'm an academic so, as a writer, I work in small chucks with several windows open in the background...sometimes I do more work that f'in around, sometimes the other way round. Sometimes I need to work like 16+ hours a day with periodic breaks, and I feel that such a stretch may be in my near pre-Cleveland future <grin> Hardest part is sitting still, for me, so I also have to get up and jump around and other random stuff!

OK, totally off topic...but VH1 is running the I <3 series right now, but it's I <3 the 90s...omg the NINETIES are already becoming retro...please don't tell me...
MMMMEEEEEOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!

That's an easy one...professional musician gig at night...and studio work afternoon most of the time. Musicians live a pretty relaxed lifestyle...lol

HA! Eq, if you're waiting for ME to say something interesting, you're going to be waiting on this forum for a long, long time. (xo)

Self-employed here as well.
Dramatic highlights & a unique musical cosmos. Guaranteed.

Stewart, the inspiration of the Self-employed! :lol: :lol:
Just pre-ordered the Stewart Collection. And listen to the opening chords of Omegaman...It's such an "open", soaring sound...but, alas, it's not penned by Gordon Sumner.

Maybe we're just all too creatively-minded to be penned-in to a 9-to-5 routine...
