1) I think I have a RL. and not to bad, too.
This does not mean that I cannot enjoy communicating with people far away, with different interests and ages, that I would never meet in other circumstances. Also, it’s nice to just have some fun sometimes!
And anyway, it beats ten times watching TV!
2) Since I manage a restaurant, I spend several hours each day having just to be present, but with very little to really do most of the time (there are howewer notable exceptions!). So I am free to write to you, people, and read and enjoy your posts. I only have trouble with chat, because I may be interrupted at any time. This works well with posts, not with real-time stuff like chat.
