hello.

my name is amy, and i do believe that i am addicted to checking my email.
yes.
sometimes i motivate myself to get out of bed by thinking "if you just get up already then you can go check your email".
it is also probably one of my favorite procrastination techniques. because even if there aren't any new messages, there are always messages in the inbox that need to be sorted into various folders.

obviously, i am well aware that the iPhone would be mean big trouble for me. i don't own one & it's probably a good thing because i've already found myself wasting time on mike's iPhone. yes! it's that bad. at breakfast the other day... "hey mike, i need to check my email, can i use your iPhone?" ha. i don't know what i'll do when the second generation comes out because i've been using that as my excuse not to go ahead and get one.

but email really isn't something that you can limit, is it? i mean... it just wouldn't be right to set some type of rule like "you can only check your email 3x a day." seriously... it just wouldn't be right.

bottom line: i need my email. i don't really know what to do about it. ha. maybe i should leave my computer at home when i go to vegas. [which, by the way, i am so super excited about.]

ok. i'm going to eat a mochi and get to work on all my homework. eek.

p.s. happy birthday to james today! we didn't do anything to celebrate, but i think maybe this weekend after our crazy busy week of school is over. :]

p.s.s. i know every one has heard this song, but it's too pretty not to post. plus. the way she paints on the photos is pretty amazing. inspiring, no?

I do that too. "get up and you can see what e-mail you have..." so bad. It's actually something I'm working on because I could be so much more productive if I didn't check 100x a day!

(ps- love that song. don't care if I've heard it too much. love it.)
