Do you ever get on here and look up and can't believe how much time has gone by? So then you know you've been bad, but you go ahead and do it again anyway? LOL.

I think we may need to start a twelve-step program, AW Anonymous. Since we're all here anyway, we could just start a thread... ;)

LOL. Trouble is there are so many threads active and I have to comment on all of them!!!!! Or at least read them.

I usually give it up over the weekend... and once I am back at work my time on here will be a lot less.

I can quit any time I want to.















I just haven't wanted to.








And don't even think about an intervention! :D

Before you set up a 12 step intervention, could you list the warning signs?

Like: You know you are addicted to AW when…dinner has set off the fire alarm, but you have to finish your post before investigating?

You know you are addicted to AW when ... you give advise to an AW writer on how to improve their novel while your own novel's file sits open for hours unattended. :D

You know you are addicted to AW when you start replying to posts in your sleep...

Lavern, I have a feeling the image you posted is funny, but it's not showing up for me :(

I'll check back every 5 seconds to see if it shows up. :D

Like I've said before, AW is my own personal private space to unwind and look things up.

I love that no one knows I'm here except for you dorks.

:tongue I'm dorkier than you.

No. Wait. I think it's the other way around.

My mind is mush.

I dream about the AWers here. writerterri is a cartoon drawing. So's Susie. Lavern is Lavern from that TV show, Silver King is a fish, Cray a defunct battery, Alpha Echo a faeire with pretty wings....

You know you're addicted to AW when there are disturbing sounds outside your house but you read to the end of the page before going to check it out.


I know.


I just did that.


But it was just the neighbor's cat. This time. :)

You know you might be an addict when you have a different avvie for everyday of the year... or when you start seriously lying about your post count...
