I’m sure I’m both toxic and a bad coworker. C’est la vie. As for the bullets…

* Being Addicted to E-mail – check, but not by choice
* Visual Clutter – shockingly no, not really
* Being Bored – check
* Poor Posture – check
* Toxic Indoor Air – check
* Eating Too Much at Once – check
* Living in Artificial Light – check
* Listening to Negative Nellies – again, not by choice, but I’m surrounded by them
* Holding a Grudge – check

Ha, I get sucked into those lists too. Minneapolis keeps popping up as one of the best cities in various categories (safest, smartest, best schools) and I wonder when I’ll finally take it as a sign to move there (my aunt and uncle live there–they’d be thrilled!).

MSN has similar articles that I get sucked into. Those are energy zappers in and of it self. I think an energy zapper of mine is visual overload. NYC wears me out just by looking at it hehe.

I think I may be addicted to Google reader…maybe there is an online addiction help-group that has an RSS feed I can subscribe to…

Not only is checking email/blogs draining, it can be quite the time consumer! How often do I spend an hour reading blogs?? Think of what else I could be doing! But I like reading about everyone…and I have too many people who I like to keep up with. I’ve tried cutting back on blogs I read…but I can’t decide who to keep and who to remove from google reader!

Being bored is a HUGE energy drainer for me. Also, just sitting actually makes me more tired than anything. So, combine being bored with just sitting around and it’s all I can do to drag myself to work in the morning.

I am a supreme grudge holder. And email checker. And have a negative Nelson that I sleep with—no wonder I am so tired!!!

Yeah….I definitely need to work on a lot of those. I waste so much time at the computer. It’s really amazing how much more I’d get done on school work without the Internet.
