Do you eat at your PC?

Saturday, May 14, 2005 by Sleeping Dragon | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Boss' comments on a different thread made me think of this. I eat almost all of my meals, that I eat at home, at my PC. It's a real trick to keep crumbs out of the keyboard. Does anyone else do this?

My pc is in the liveingroom, i sit here and watch tv, do home work and yes i eat some of my meals here too if i'm not made to sit at the table like a "normal?" family man! when i'm home i sit here all day long working on skins or touching up photos for family, i have taken a lot of flack for siting here so much that i'm going to school just to have some peace and, a better job would be a great too my pc is my life and my wood working tools are collecting dust in some location i can't remember. i pay the kid next door to mow the lawn so i have more time here. i dream of haveing a servant to do the other things that drag me away from here some day. if this is some kind of problem i need help in over comeing... I DON'T WANT IT!!!

i think i have gone above and beyond the origanal question here ...part of the sickness i'm guessing

as far as crumbs in the key board ...here's a tip from my wife...push it back from under your mouth as you feed it and there's no problems with the gunk sticking the keys any more.

If I'm home by myself, I'll eat at my desk.

LoL..Every meal that I am at home to enjoy... is that a bad thing? LoL

I do have the habit of also turning on the television at dinner time as well for some reason and I have been known to also open up the newspaper at the same time..drives people crazy..they charge that there is not any possible way that I can be doing all at once..I disagree..LoL..because I do Read, Watch, Listen and Surf as I eat...

I do it all the time. ^^ I have a nice and big desk with a lot of room leftover. I've been doing it ever since I got my ATI All-In-Wonder 7500 video card w/ tv tuner and also when I got my DVD±RW drive. I have a slide out keyboard so Idon't have to worry about crumbs in it.

Yea, if noones around and the TV can't entertain me I go and seek comfort with my computer while I eat.

During the day when I'm home working and the wife is away at her job I usually eat at the computer, unless I meet her for lunch in town. At night I have to wait until she goes to bed before it's safe to return for a few more hours. She thinks I spend too much time in front of the thing. (Never mind that it contributes the lion's share of our income. )

Real or not..its good!!

I practically live with my laptop on my lap! I will admit that I eat my meals at the dinner table (because I have always insisted my sons do the same) but I will snack and dip into the wine at the computer. Computers have taken over my life. I am in the middle of progress report time and so I set up all my progress reports in my word processor program just so that I can stay closer to my computer! Sick? Yup! My friends just do not understand the fascination I find with computers!! They think I'm nuts. They may be right!!

As a matter of fact, 00...I'm sipping on some wine right now!

Progress reports are much easier when sipping on wine. I'm hoping they get even easier once I finish the whole bottle!!


That pizza sounds awesome! My hubby is out on the grill right now cooking up some steaks!

I'm soaking some Black eyed peas, and thawing out some salmon for tonight's CPU meal. Tossing back a Kirin Ichi Ban beer right now. Cheers, Donna. Or should I say "Kampai"? The salmon is going to be cooked in previously sauteed garlic, onions, olive oil and jalapenos. I'll add some soy and brown sugar at the end. I' getting hungry.

Is it early enough to have you put an extra serving in? I'm on my way
