Because if I did, I would miss out on all my weekend plans! SMART recovery meeting, Vegetarian meetup from meetup.com, service at the Ethical Culture Society (a Secular Humanist alternative to Church, ie with the community but without the Creeds and Deity), trip to my mom's in the suburbs to see her and the dog, first skype video chat with my 86-year-old Grandfather in the Midwest whom i haven't seen in 5 years... I tried to explain it to him, "it's like talking on the phone on the computer but we can see eachother!" and I think he is skeptical, can't wait to see his reaction! ha ha
