Same here! :) Anything to get me through the day! :) My computer also definitely keeps me company. :) I get to talk to people, post and earn on myLot, play games, type papers, and find and research information. :) So, it is all good. :) I am on the computer most of the day, but it is very helpful for me. :)

I don't find that the computer changes my skin at all. i do spend a good bit of time at the computer, maybe 6-8 hours a day.

Well, for me it depends on the time I have in a day to get online. As I have a Full time job, there are many times I cannot get in here for sure like I would want. But since I am married I also try and spend time with my husband when he is home as well just to make sure he knows I am not ignoring him as well. So for the most part on average I would say around 4 hrs. or so most days. Not neccesarily on myLot, but online or checking Emails, etc.

I'm addicted to my computer, and crave it more than fear it... I barely get time to get on it, so when I do get time I am on it relaxing and enjoying my free time. It's more of a stress reliever to me than anything. Before I worked and was so busy with school I spent hours upon hours on my computer each day, which probably did not do very good for my eyes, since now my vision is poor and I am only 18, when I was younger my eyes were perfect, when I started using the computer my developing eyes started to get poor- I am sure it is from the use of the computer since the glow it sends out is harmful, as well as the very small pixels that move and blink at amazing speeds that you alone don't notice, though your eyes take the injury from it all. They say it is good to look off of the screen every few minutes to let your eyes become adjusted to other things, not on the computer, so I try to do that more often, though I find myself staring at the computer for long periods of time forgetting about the outside world haha. Happy mylotting and have a great day or night.

I usually spend three to four house staying in front of the computer. I 'm really addicted to it and feel uncomfortable without it. Though I sometimes feel a little bit physically unfit, I still find it enjoyable. Anyway, we should spend less time playing with it if unnecessary. Body health is more important than anything else.

I can spend about 15 hours in front of the computer screen. Yea, it's bad that mouse addiction of mine, but I love my computers.

One computer however stays on 24/7 because there are programs running that don't need my personal attention. When I am sleeping the monitor and the speakers get turned off to conserve on electricity.

I have been known to spend stints of eight to ten hours with my computer it almost never gets turned off. My computer is set to scan for viruses or download something while I sleep. I can get the news, tv & video, music, games or chat with friends and family. Most of the time I ask myself why would I want to get off the computer but after a few hours you can start to feel fatigued.
