Laptop Love Triangle

You have to read this article if you have a laptop:

Before I started working in the real world, I worked from my bed. That was my office, my hangout area and my sleep area. Hubby and I always come home, eat, and then bust out our laptops which we stay on for the rest of the evening. He's either doing work or looking at houses and housing market trends (his passion) and I'm either working for the job or for IWS. Unless there's a really good show on (King of Queens or Lost), both of us are looking at our laptops.

The article addresses different consequences but I don't think we fit into any of them entirely. We're not trying to avoid each other by sitting in front of our laptops, it doesn't replace the tv because that's on too - I think we just have a lot of work to do and there's only so much -looking into each other's eyes and talking- you can do. We get that done on the way home from work =)

So point being, I don't see our laptop habits changing. Until we have kids. Then we will use them solely for playing music and doing bhangra on the bed.

(P.S. I'm still alive, even though I'm barely posting anymore. Work has been kicking my butt and then coming home and working is killing me. I don't think I've ever been so busy. To the point where I feel guilty leaving my laptop for a few hours on the weekend in case the boss emails - and OH how he emails! Ok now off to make lunch - this week we have turkey sandwiches, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and chicken patty sandwiches.)
