who is posting from the on-campus computer lab and hoping that no one is looking over her shoulder to see that she is posting on a mbs for show that was cancelled 6 years ago
I know the feeling! I'm in the computing lab at the moment! Whenever friends come over to talk to me I usually minimise the window. This is a great option, unless of course, you also have the Archive on the next page, another mb page open on the fic you're also in the middle of reading (while waiting for the first mb page to finish loading), then another page with your inbox full of posts from the fic list...
Despite all that, surfing at uni is usually better, mostly due to the (usually) fantastic connection speed. Also the fact that I don't think my parents know the full extent of my obssesion, so if I'm online at Uni, they don't see it! I can't wait til I have my own place (and a job) so I can have (and afford) a broadband connection...
As for the housework? I'm lucky in that I still live at home and am not responsible for a whole house worth of cleaning. My mum left my sister and I to our own devices to our own rooms years ago, though, and I have to say, it *looks* she did! The shock would probably kill my mum if she saw a duster or hoover near my room!
