I'm sad to report the answer to yes! I discovered the depth of my addiction yesterday when my service was out for most of the day.
I currently use the Internet to --among other things -- write my blog posts, send and receive e-mails, read the newspaper, look for work and communicate with clients, research projects, talk on the phone, listen to the radio, watch TV, and make plans.
I am also constantly Googling to satisfy any curiosities or flights of fancy. I can't tell you how many time Kevin and I open one of our computers to answer a question that comes up in the course of a conversation.
What's in Cassoulet? (Duck legs, bacon, sausage, vegetables, and white beans.) Where are the Balkans? (Between the Adriatic Sea and the Black Sea, and includes Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, and part of Turkey). How many people in the world speak German? (98,000,000)
All this begs the question. What did people do before they had access to all this information?
About Me
- Erin
- Ridgewood, NJ, United States
- In the fall of 2007 my husband and I moved to Germany. After more than a year of traveling, eating, and living abroad, we were transferred back to the states. At the time of our return, I was 34 weeks pregnant. This is a true account of our re-assimilation, reverse culture shock, and impending adventure into parenthood.
A Southern Something
I don't think there are quite enough sausages in the South to maintain the "Wurst of the Week." Instead, I am replacing this sidebar feature with "A Southern Something." To start, I'd like to introduce you to chow chow. A pickled relish, chow chow can be made from any number of vegetables, including cabbage, onions, or green tomatoes.

That's a lot of German speakers!
Yeah, I guess before the internet, people just had to stay ignorant in those situations. :)
nkGood question! Now I know I am in fine company because I am also an Internett addict.
