Total score of: 34 (20 to 49, Average Range)

Your score falls within the range of 20 to 49 and is within the average range. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.

yay

Weird, considering pretty much any free time I get I go online

I got 27 even though I spend about 7 - 8 hours a day on the internet.

Course that's at work and I would rather be frolocking in a meadow, so most of the questions don't really apply.
