Have you ever seen the TV show KungFu w/David Caradine? The wise man says "Be patient, Grasshopooper, your PWN3D will guide you." I check mine 5 times a day because I am Canadian.
Katysue, I check me e-male 5 times a day because I am a Canadian Kilted Yaksman. We get so lonely up here in the tundra: we either check mail, or clip moose toenails. I prefer MAIL.
I guess the deciding factor (as to whether it is normal or not) is what happens when you can't check your email? like if the internet is off or you have to be somewhere, like a doctor's appointment. do you get very anxious or flip out or something? I check my email all the time too, but I can also go for hours without checking it (like when I'm at work - I'm a TSS and work at people's houses).
Well, it is obsessive but you're not hurting anybody. If this worries you and want to free yourself from this behaviour, try weaning yourself off a bit. Much like smoking, you can start by every two hours, then three and so on. You will find you can use your time more constructively. Try it if you like the idea.
Then again, I'm a Canadian and just a major pain.
its pretty normal if your a very social person and have alot going on email wise. or maybe your just bored alot. but w/e the reeson, i think its pretty normal. im the same, i live on certain websites and im b/c thats wat u do when ur bored!
