The internet is evil

I went on-line around 2pm, intending to answer some emails, book some flights, maybe buy a book I've been thinking about, then come off.

By 5pm, I had only achieved the first and had spent the rest of my time browsing art on Tumblr and DeviantArt.

I have a big discipline problem when going on-line. For me, the internet is usually about amusement, so my default is to search for something new and interesting to stare at for a while. Which means if I do go on intending to do something (e.g. booking flights), I frequently end up forgetting what I wanted and waste hours just trolling about, going, "ENTERTAIN ME INTERWEBZ!!"

*fidgets with insatiable curiosity*
where you bookin flights to?? Aww but if you're easily distracted by the gloriousness of tumblr (yessssssss) and DeviantArt then it can't be too exciting a trip. :(

Alas!

My internet is such that I am online all day. When you have high speed all day, it gets boring and it allows you to do other things, lol

My brothers bought me tickets to an Andre Rieu concert for Christmas. The concert is being held in Prague in May. They have, however, left it up to me to book flights and accommodation. I think I'm subconsciously putting it off because I'm nervous about going somewhere where English is not the first language and what public transport will be available and how will I find my way around when the signs are in a foreign alphabet and aaaaaahhh!!!

It is so easy to lose track of time when on certain sites, like Tumblr. It will be 10pm and the next thing I know it's two in the morning. Where did those four hours go? o.O Have learned not to go on Tumblr at night. Very bad idea.
