I thought that I would be more productive at home without the internet to get in the way. I have a lot of home projects to take care of and I thought that without the distraction of interneting I would have no reason not to do the things that need to be done.

I was incorrect. Honestly I was VERY incorrect. Since I have lost the free internet (about 2 months now) that I was borrowing I have got nothing done.

Reasons:

1. Without internet at home I am more likely to go (or stay) somewhere else that does have internet. This leads to less time at my place to do any work.

2. Without internet at home I do not have access to entertainment. I can not just watch whatever it is I want to watch off the internet so i have to turn to other things like blockbuster. I have to travel to the blockbuster then travel back and then instead of an episode of a tv show that I would have watched now I have a 2 hour movie, that took a half hour to get.

3. Directions to places. Before I had a Garmin I could not go anywhere I needed to go quickly because i didn't know how to get there. This made for a lot of useless driving around. It is better now with the Garmin but I still like to plan the trip out first.

4. When I am bored at home, I will grab a beer. As soon as that happens all ambition flies out the window. With the internet, I get bored less.

So... I had to get connection to the internet. Next week my package arrives and I will hook up some decent speed DSL.
