I will eat every meal
at the table--not with one hand while I'm typing.
I will get dressed before dinnertime.
I will remember that I must clean the house, wash clothes, cook
meals, and have a bath every once in a while.
I will sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate friends
and family members that are Web-deprived and let them know I'm
not dead or missing.
I will not send any email or visit a chat room for at least 24
hours. If I can do that, I can make it.
I will not use smile icons or other internet abbreviations when
I'm offline.
I will read a "paper" book if I still can.
I will remember other's needs, and pry my nose off this monitor
for at least an hour each evening before my beloved forgets I
exist.
I will leave the house at least twice a week whether I have to
or not.
I will remember that my bills must be paid even if I'm too busy
to make payments because I'm on the web.
Last, but not least, I will remember to sleep, knowing that the
internet will be there tomorrow when I awake.
