The Apple Diet

They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away but what about when you have some type of Apple product in front of your face during every waking hour.  Something is definitely wrong with this picture and I have just come to grips with my total Apple addiction.  It can't be healthy when I am looking at blogs on my macbook, while playing Sims on my iPad and chatting with friends in Group Me on my iPhone all at the same time.  Again, something is definitely wrong with this picture!! So starting Monday, July 9, 212 (its always better to start something on a Monday right?) I am officially putting myself on an Apple diet.  I am expecting to have the usual side effects of any diet including but not limited to headache, crazy urges and sadness :-(. However I heard on some morning show (I barely ever watch them, so can't remember which one) that many people are becoming more comfortable with talking to a computer than actually interaction with one another.  This is so true! Many people don't even make phone calls to share good news when they can just post a status.

My Apple Diet:

I plan to gradual limit my time so this will be for day one, or at least the first couple of days so I won't go into complete shock!

iPhone - Limit to 2 hours of tweeting, pinning, instagramming, messaging, texting and Facebooking a day. (may your prayers be with me)

iPad - Limit to1 hour of usage a day.  This will deeply limit my building of my town in Sims. :( Womp!

Macbook - Limit to 30 minutes a day.

I will definitely check back in after a full day to share exactly how my diet is going. :)
