Media Fast

I'm putting myself on a diet of sorts. 

The thought came to me last week that I should have a 'media-free' week. When the thought came to me again and again, I knew it was more than a thought. So, here it is. 

Thanks to my DVR, the shows I really love will be waiting for me next week.  

That way, I won't miss this-

The thing that concerns me most about no TV is the news. I watch it everyday.

Sort of gives me anxiety to think about missing it. 

Guess I'll have my husband keep me informed.

No video games.

Oh, yeah, I don't play them. 

No radio.

This will only effect me in the car.  It'll be just me and my thoughts. 

Kinda scary.

Here's the big one-

This means no facebook. (Eeek!) You mean I won't know what clever, informative things my ex-boyfriends, cousins, and distant friends share? Breathe, breathe.

No e-mail. Yep. If you want to contact me, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way-

And, lastly, no blogging.

What?!?!?!!?

I know. It's going to be hard on me, too. =0)

I decided if I get any brilliant ideas, I'll write them down for next week.  

The reason for this media fast? I need to focus on my book. Every day I think I'll work on it.

Then, all these distractions pop up and at the end of the day, and then, the end of the week, 

I realize, I've done nothing- again.

Sooo, have a great week. Hopefully, I will, too.
