I Have Set Myself Up For Failure

Not even ten days in and I’m ready to chalk this month’s resolution up to an ambitious, yet overly-optimistic self-deluded attempt.

Simply put, the demons of procrastination have won over my idealistic desire to purge unnecessary electronic media influences.

I have watched TV (a LOT more than I did before), listened to podcasts, and goofed around on the web –  to the edge and beyond of what I forbade.

I’ve even treaded into the most forbidden YouTube territory – maliciously hidden in one of the professional blogs I allowed myself for work, I ended up being drawn into this meme of a boy recovering from anesthesia:

Must resist. Must return to the electronic hermitage I swore to uphold.
