Spending too much time online?

I got this "BabyTalk" magazine in the mail and in it is an article titled "Hooked Online: Seeking information, community, and escape, new moms are spending more and more time on the web.  How much is too much?"  I read it and thought crikey, I think I'm spending too much time online!  I mostly do it when DD naps, but I'm sure there are more productive ways to use my time.  I think I should limit myself to 30 minutes a day or something.  And I think it's funny that I read that article and immediately had to come post about it online, lol.  Anyway, does anyone else think they spend too much time on the computer like me?

DH calls me an internet junky!  Sometimes I have to shut down the entire computer to force myself to do something else.

Bah. WTF else are you supposed to do when you're at home with a baby? Clean? Cook?

DH and I have no-internet nights, and I'm trying to get myself motivated to start sewing again. But whatever, things get done if they need it, whether or not I waste time on the internet...

It would do me some good to spend less time on-line.  Definitely.

I was spending too much time online so now I no longer log on in the evening or on the weekend. This said, I probably still spend too much time online.

I know I spend too much time online.  I am on the internet throughout both of his naps (probably 3 hours?) every day, and then also I'm off and on in the evening when DS is down for bed.

But I can't clean while he sleeps (he is too light of a sleeper) and there's not much else to do.  I would rather be on the internet than read books!
