March 10, 2006

Friday morning on a warm (33 degrees) and gray day in Minneapolis. The addict sits at his desk and boots his computer. Outlook gets opened first to check on the day's requirements. But then it's straight to SU.

The addict wonders, "Am I replacing one addiction with another?" The addict finds it easy to spend time on SU and easy to avoid work. The addict finds a semblance of connection and receives occasional affirmations from other stumblers. The addict CRAVES affirmation.

But again, SU is a work distraction. Is it a replacement of one addictive behavior with another? Does it matter? After all, this behavior is much healthier.

Ahhh, so many questions. What's an addict to do?
