Feed addict

I never thought I am a feed addict. But turns out I am. I was not in touch with the actual real world for about a month owing to this. I had shit loads of feeds to catch up on - XKCD, Blogs, articles, memes - so many things. My Google Reader had around 200 odd unread items. I was tempted, more than once, to mark them all read. But somehow, I just couldn't get myself to do it. After 2 weeks of concentrated effort, I just finished the last unread post.

Finally, I feel I have a bit more control over my life.

(I had this typed out and ready to publish 5 days back but then, got distracted and did not actually do it. Today, I have about 70 unread feeds and I am feeling completely restless. Even as I type this out, I am sure the count is steadily going up! GOD!)
