Do you live for simming. I ask after reading some posts.
In my twenties and thirties I did. Guilty as charged. Like a drug addiction. Now I await anxiously for a new patch to another sim. But I must have mellowed in my forties.
I find now I can:
- play another computer game, we're spoiled for choice
- press the off button on the computer
- read a book
- watch a movie
- go to the gym for a swim
- play with my son
- go fishing and camping
- give my wife a break and take our son to one of his activities (and hang out with the yummy mummies)

- build a model plane
- play cricket
- go to the football
- and yes, even talk to the wife.
I'm not criticizing any forum members, just my two cents worth.
