I am an electrical tech so me work takes me to different parts of me country. while away,things I want to do on my computer come to mind. When thins happens I sometimes want to rush home from work so I could put my ideas to work on my computer but when I get there it can be difficult to remember what it was I wanted to do. What about you guys,has this sort of thing ever happen to you before?

I am on the computer all day long it seems. I make money online but it does seem I spend too much time on it. I am trying to find a way to make money online and set it on auto pilot. I have found some ways but I have not made enough yet... My hope is one day and I wake up and find a good way to make money and all I have to do is check what I made for the day. I do believe this day will come for me but it will come with a lot of hard work and many more hours of research. Nice discussion and happy mylotting to you.

Not really. I can be on the computer and do things and then I can easily sign off and do other things off the computer and not miss it. BUt when I have nothing to do or no where to go I tend to find myself surfing the net for different things and playing here on mylot. especially now since i lost my job and i just bought a new laptop with my credit card...gosh stupid move...

Many times when I am away, especially if I am bored, I wish I was close to my Computer, or a Computer somewhere so I could either log in here to myLot or do some of the other things that I enjoy doing online as well. Yes, there are a lot of times even when I get home from work, that the first thing I will do is jump on my Computer and myLot. For me, this is a way to relax and a lot of times forget about all the stressful things going on around me as well.

I do miss sometimes my PC or some other electronic gadgets when i am outside home but only when i think of some work and not such that i am gadget sick. May be you can utilize your time by making helpful social circles which will prove better friends then your gadgets

I sure =do miss my computer when I am away from home for a long time since have no laptop. the good thing is laptop is you can carry it anywhere you are and do the stuff you want when there is time and connection of course. But when you have a desk computer, you have to come home right away after work to sit down and do your stuff in your computer. I sure do miss my computer when i am away.

Hi there! I do miss my laptop when I am not at home. I have been addicted on my earnings sites so whenever I am away from home I just can't wait to get back and turn on my laptop. I sometimes bring a portable internet connection whenever possible. So wherever I am, I can work online when I want to. I try to store all the ideas or things that I to do online in my cell phone. In that way I don't forget it and when I get home, I just check on the notes on my cell phone. Ciao!

I am not that attached to my PC to care of it all my life. Whenever I have a great idea I simply write it down in the notebook and if necessary type it in computer after I am at computer. I don't think computers should rule over our lives, it is just an electronic box, if we look at it without emotions.

Not so much miss my own computer, but rather being in front of one in general. Computer age is really hitting us 80's born folk.

I am not working now so i dont have any office work in my computer. I usually sit online download movies, tv shows, try to earn online, participate on different forums. And i am very deep into all this. Whenever i am out with friends i try to get back home as soon as possible to spend sometime online. I really miss my PC more than anything when i am not in front of it.

I have my latop with me so I do not miss my computer unless I leave it in my apt. I am always worried that I might get stolen whenever I leave it.
