TO
Email, Social Networking and Most of All.......
REALITY TV!!!!
and I wonder why I cannot find any time to do the things I REALLY YEARN TO DO WITH MY LIFE!!!!
Im writing this to put it out there. I need some help and am going to take some steps to get control of these areas in my life. Just to give you all an idea of how serious I am, I have too many email addresses (hotmail, yahoo, gmail, work, my own businesses), too many social networking accounts (facebook, twitter, linked in, myspace) and I watch WAY too much reality tv. Here is a list of shows I either watch currently or have watched in the past:
Amazing Race
America's Next Top Model
American Idol
Apprentice
Basketball Wives
Bethenny Getting Married
Brandy & Ray J
Celebrity Apprentice
Celebrity Rehab
Dancing with the Stars
House Husbands of Hollywood
Jersey Shore
Kimora: Life in the Fab Lane
Kourtney & Khloe take Miami
Ochocinco: The Ultimate Catch
Real Housewives of Atlanta, DC, Miami, NJ
Real World
Sober House
Survivor
The TO Show
The Ultimate Merger
Top Chef
Undercover Boss
I am now attempting to start to watch Secret Millionare and Bethenny Ever After and I havent even listed shows that dont even come on anymore! I mean really Janelle.... "GET A LIFE"
I cant help but to think I have to be learning something from this madness. I mean, I stare at the tv with my mouth open more often than not at the NERVE of these people. If anything, it helps me to thank God that I have common sense and would never ever act like they do or put myselves in the situations they are in. Other times though, I admire how some of these folks just say what they think without a care in the world. It seems like many of them have what they have because of how they act. Then I remember, this is TV. It's all an illusion. It is not really reality. AT ALL. It is entertainment, plain and simple.
Now will I ever stop watching????? HELP!
Love Always

I share your pain with regard to email and social networking accounts, voicemails, two phones. I can however say that I have turned off the TV for many months now and I must say it has proven beneficial, only the addiction has transferred to exploring the internet. It's imperative that we find a healthy balance in whatever it is we enjoy. The fact that you are aware of this is half the battle. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI can totally see how turning off the tv would lead me to searching the intenet. I do that already as well! You are right in that the key is balance, and if I must watch, at least find some healthy material - physically and mentally!
ReplyDeleteLOL janelle. My list continues to grow as well with the exception of social networking. We must channel that energy into something else. I'm enjoying your blog.
