Adjusting to a full-time job

Once you've been footloose and fancy-free for a while (a year and a half in my case) you find that adjusting your online life to your real life is very difficult indeed.

I have filled my livejournal friends page with lots of syndicated stuff that I need to stop reading, because I no longer have time to do so. I don't think that I'll have to delete any real friends, but all the syndicated stuff is going out the door, I guess.

I cannot take two hours a day anymore to read mail, USENET, and live journal before taking a leisurely shower and toddling off to the gym.

Right at the moment, it's cheesing me off; however, I believe that once I get into the swing of things at work this will cease. At least, I hope so.

Otherwise, I'll have to play the lottery more often in order to be able to live in the style to which I wish to become accustomed.
