I've been informed that I spend far too much time on hubpages.
I have also been informed that I won't be allowed near the computer () from Tomorrow till Sunday.
So I'll spend time with my family, maybe even go outside (is that big annoying thing called the sun still out there?) So I have just a few more hours to enjoy my computer (and finish writing my assignment), before the ban begins.
If you don't see me around, you'll know why. Wish me luck
I take it since you are banned that you will be settling for a little less this Christmas
Oh I'll write ten hubs on Monday to make up for it!
I shall be back with a vengeance on Monday at latest - I can't risk losing my top ten posters spot on the main forums.
ah well ..does that mean we will have you for this evening?
Yes. Posting nonstop. While writing my assignment and transcribing my interview. And eating dinner. And chasing a crawling baby out of everything.
My family is plotting an intervention regarding the same thing, WryLilt! It's a shame, really, but I'll just go along with them, to HPRehab.
Good luck with the ban!
aw im sorry to see you go, but i can totally understand. besides, your family should always come first anyways. i hope you have a good time, and we'll look forward to seeing you again soon.
why so sad? im sorry. i didn't say something wrong did i?
Your baby and your husband will be happy, enjoy yourself and come back and write with renewed vigor!! Happy holidays!
oh i see. well im sure it'll be okay. im sure there's a lot of people here that will miss seeing you too. however, i hope you have a great time with your family. besides, hubpages will still be here when you get back.
hon, are you serious, wish you luck? oh i hope your family never read this, if they are missing you to this degree maybe take off for a few months, the real world is so much more rewarding, well, if you know someone in it *sigh* have fun let us know, smiles
From the fact that you are now posting, can we presume it has reached the early hours of Sunday AM in Australia?
Have a great few days off and enjoy the time with your family
you mean there is life outside of hubpages? I think I need some time to paint for a change.
HubRehab........hmmmmm need a new term for that one for my Hub Dictionary Hub.
Me?
Heck no, not ready for being away from hubbing yet. Actually going on holidays so my Hub output will dramatically increase over a short period of time.
I guess WryLilt's on her way, then! I hope the poor dear doesn't melt under those extreme solar rays.
Kangaroo_Jase, please update your dictionary-I'd love to see that! But you MUST give credit where it's deserved!!
I'll hunt you down, you sweet Aussie, you!
I'll be away from Sunday-Thursday afternoon, too. We're going to Florida. Randy Godwin will prolly take his laptop, however, so maybe I can sneak a little time on it. lol
tell them that we are your REAL family and that we prohibit you from seeing THEM!
I kind of do this every Sunday - when I am away from my computer usually for a block of time. It's very good for me to touch, taste, hear, smell and see for awhile.
Also - you can always write a hub about the experience away from us!
If I had a baby around, believe me I would not be on the computer much AT ALL! of course, its not my job - but man, I miss my babies - that time flies past so fast and they are so precious - really, enjoy, enjoy! and you will also be making your child a better person by giving lots of time and energy!
Have a great time... you never know the real life thing might actually be something worth persuing? You might actually enjoy it (?)lol ... what is this thing called reality anyway? lol
I hope you have something fascinating to tell us when you get back Sometimes I have to forced away from the computer too
see you soon
I get told I spend too much time on here, but to be successful you need to be committed and always learning!
So how was the break - did it do you any good. I have had occassional enforced breaks and I always come up with new ideas while I am away.
Or were you really good and didnt even think about HP at all.
Hahahaha. Not think about HP?
I snuck on three times (to check my earnings...) Well my earnings gave me a slap on the hand. Saturday was the first day in about three months where I didn't get a SINGLE CLICK! Just 12c from impressions. Fail!
I wrote eight hubs yesterday, think I missed HP? LoLoL
I got told off for spending too much time there - I blame it on an untidy den and weight gain. A break from HP wouldn't be so bad, wouldn't it?
Oh, and we all need some exercise as well as family time!

Hi! I'm Mark, and I'm new here. Can I get some feedback so I can improve my article? Here's the link: https://hubpages.com/education/Understand-What-You-Read I received an email that my article didn't pass the quality assessment. It's my first article here at HubPages, and I don't have any...

I am preparing my 100th hub, and for that I want to review 100 hubs written by other Hubbers. Please post links to hubs - your own or those of others - that you would want me to include. One link per post, please. I intend to review only one hub for each Hubber.

justification? If not like me. Someone can arbitrarily ban anyone for unjustified reason! What is the mean of defense for someone that is banned? Why can't he/she face a trial? Are we a microcosm of democracy or not?
by Eric Standridge 13 years ago
...but not too hard. Seems there's plenty already on it, and I'd hate to be the one who causes the hubs to snap off. (Sorry, bad pun, but hell, I just couldn't resist.)So, since I'm assuming that this is the official "newbie doesn't know what the he's doing" section, I...
