I have an entirely unhealthy addiction to all forms of media. Particularly the most harmful ones. Sometimes I find my self up at 1 AM watching the Bad Girls Club on Oxygen and I think,"Jesus am I learning anything positive from these women."
In fact, I hardly know what to do if I'm not in front of the TV mindlessly watching all of my DVRed Family Guys, and checking Facebook every twenty minutes. I feel contaminated. Like I'm not indulging in the things that are really satisfying and wonderful about my life, and I don't want to feel that way anymore.
So, starting today, I am limiting myself to one hour of TV this entire week (only to watch Gossip Girl) and 30 minutes of the internet everyday (and no Perez Hilton) and I'll only read my new issue of Elle (that's not trashy right?). Hopefully I'll gain more time to finish "The Drifters" and work on my writing and possibly tidy my place a bit (a girl can only dare to dream!)I'll probably cut down on 3 hours of TV daily and 2 hours of internet daily. So that's an extra bajillion hours that I can fill doing things that count. I don't think I'll miss it too much.
