TUMBLR RULES but I need some rules

So I’ve finally come to face the music: my Tumblr usage is pretty out of control. I do Tumblr instead of work, check it all the time, think about it all the time — insert tired joke about how it’s taken over my life.

Thing is, I need it to not take over my life.

I have homework to do, exercise to do, projects I’d like to do but put off, movies to watch, TV shows to watch, books to read, plays to read, monologues to find, music to practice, and I’m thinking more and more that I ought to start writing again.

But all I do is sit around on Tumblr and fuel my habitual impulsiveness.

Being on hiatus always helps me see this, and so with less than a year (if all goes well) until I transfer to Big College, I’ve decided it’s high time I do something about it. 

TUMBLR RULES:

• No more than 1 hour on weekdays, 2 on weekends.
• No Tumblr unless homework is finished.
• No having Tumblr open while doing something else.
• No Tumblr unless exercise is done. 
• No Tumblr unless you’ve been outside today.
• No Tumblr unless your bed is made.
• No Tumblr unless all laundry’s done.
• No Tumblr if there’s something about which your brain says, “I should probably do that.” 

So I guess most of these are rules that any normal person wouldn’t have to spell out, but if I don’t, I’ll rationalize anything. It’s a crazy downward spiral. This is a start, for now; I may be adding more as I figure them out.

I am posting them now so you and I can both hold me accountable! Internet magic.

I’m actually really excited! I like you all, and that is why I can’t quit it completely. But I really like life, too! 

get it TUMBLR RULES (yes it does) so i guess what i'm saying is i'm officially off hiatus (for now) but i may not be around all that much? i still really like you don't worry!! tumblr rules
