Could I be considered a ActiveRain stalker?

I'm gonna do it today!!Yesterday morning I was sitting in front of my computer doing what I normally do at OMG it’s early.  I had answered all of the comments on my posts, not a bad thing to do it shows folks you value their opinion.  I then started reading and commenting on other folks blogs, my subscriber list first.  Then all of a sudden out of the clear blue I began noticing a change coming over me as I looked down to the clock on the computer;

1.     My eyes started to like glaze over

2.     Things started to get blurry

3.     My palms started to sweat

4.     I couldn’t focus on reading others post so I couldI wish my eyes would focus... comment

5.     It was getting close to that time of morning

Could it be, YES, YES, YES, I just might be first this morning to comment on one of my favs in the Rain.  But wait, I have a couple of minutes before they do their morning post so I will go and read one more post on my subscriber list.  Whew, it was a short comic relief post.  So, I get back and sure enough my fav just posted an article a minute ago and I jumped on to the post and started to read, gosh it was a long one this morning.  I was sure that I was the first one to comment but no foiled again, I was like number 5. 

I wonder if they could see me and knew what I was up to?

Then I woke up!!  It is good to have a routine but, it is also good to be able to sleep.

Have a GREAT day in the Rain!!

Rebecca,

It is not good to be second guessing what you wrote.  It will probably have a feature on it now.

William,

I was thinking that this would have been a good question for the Ask Richard column. 
What do you think?

Hi Don :

I'm all for not watching the news! 

I tend to fall asleep during Conan (used to be Leno)...

Toula,

That news anytime of the day is enough to give you nightmares isn't it?

Oh my gosh Don, I meant that term only while you were sleeping, ok? You are one of the most kind and eloquent bloggers here and that term was never meant to label your 'awake blogging'.

Sweat droplets wiping off my forehead...am I in the clear?

Ooh, ooh, I forgot to add as stated in my AR newsletter describing you "Don's engaging personality are a sparkling example of the best ActiveRain has to offer!"

So true!

I think we all have our favorites that we like to "STALK" They are good writers, we want to hear their opinion and maybe, just maybe it will get our creative juices flowing.

George,

I am sure that you are right and yes that one or two writers will get, at the very least, some thoughts stirred up.  And that is not a bad thing.  Thank you sir for stopping in this morning.

Don - I don't get you early risers.  I am usually finishing up when you are starting.  Good group of people online in the wee hours of the night and morning.

Don, the good thing (I think) is, you are not the only one. I wonder if they already have  a name for this "condition" in wikipedia:)

Ryan,

All the while I was thinking that it was all of you night owls.  I haven't found a time that people are not on AR blogging their little hearts out.

Joanna,

I am not to sure if there is a name for this condition.  However if you give it enough time I am sure there will be someone that will give it a name.
