I miss the internet

April 10th, 2009 at 12:00 am

Of all the things I cut back on when I was unemployed, I really miss the internet the most. Which is strange, because I thought I would miss being about to watch anything I wanted on tv at anytime more ... but nope, I don't miss it at all.

And ... I am trying to figure out how much longer I want to do without the internet. I'm still not making stable money at the new job, and I won't for at least another three weeks. Then, there is the fact that because of my unemployed stint, I have no savings ... and that is not a place I want to be.

So, would it be silly to try to make the goal of "No internet for a year"? Could I do it? Do I really want to? I don't want to, let's be honest ... but if it means I'll be getting $30/month closer to getting out of debt, I think this is a challenge I am willing to make for myself.

So .. two new challenges ...
1. No internet for a year (April 2010)
2. No new clothes (except work and undergarments) for BOTH Juliette and I ...

I don't know which one is scarier ... lol

    Does your local library have computers for public use? Ours does, limited to an hour a day. Maybe you could do that if the urge gets too bad.

    Yeah, it does ... however, there is always a large wait ... and really not worth it in my opionion. Since I am already coming to my parents house at least once a week since they watch my daughter when I have to work nights, I think I can manage my internet want that way.
