Well, this post isn't going where I thought it would with the "is it wrong" formula so I'm just gonna stop here.

Is it wrong to just want to click and comment and click and comment and find new blog friends every night when I could be doing real-paying work or writing my second novel?

Is it wrong to want to spend all my money on novels I want to buy but not have the time to sit and read them?

Is it wrong to want to throw up ... just kidding, I don't have to.

Is it wrong to ask you to go over and click my photo at 25peeps.com, asking you to ignore the chickies that feel it's necessary to show their boobies to everyone?

Is it wrong to have wasted the WHOLE DAMN NIGHT on the Internet? NO, not when you're IMing Manic Mom and playing the Google game!

Is it also wrong to go get some chocolate out of my kitchen right now? Too late, already did it.

And if it's wrong to think Dustin's hot, I don't want to be right.
