Don't worry, you can't possibly sound worse than me.

Really? I'm checking my inbox at least 5 times a day to see if anything new comes up: LJ comments, new chapters from Silvershadow, reviews, posts, updates on anything (mostly gaming stuff)...

Hmm... I take it back. "
J/k, you have your own fanfic to worry about as well as keeping up with Silver's so obviously you'd need to check your inbox more. Of course, I am starting my own fanfic, so we'll see if that gets off the first chapter... (my bet is on no :D )
As for checking on new posts, I pop in anywhere from twice to ten times a day (it gets really, really boring around here).

I do a routine web-check of my email, a few forums, and Livejournal. I close the Internet, listen to some music or do something I have to do, and check it all over again. ^_^
