Break the routine
Normally when I get home one of the first things I do is turn on the computer. For the majority of the evening you’ll find me there; surfing the web, reading my RSS feeds, watching a video podcast, playing one video game or another.
Tonight I am going to try and stay off the computer as much as possible. Not for the entire week, just for tonight. If it works out I’ll try it again next Tuesday. Who knows, I might eventually manage to keep Tuesdays my “offline evening” for the week.
I’ll admit, coming home at 8:30 because of my Arnis Class helps. Things would be really different if I decided to do this on Sundays when I have all the free time in the world. But, it’s best to start out small and work your way up to bigger things.
Although I’m not quite ready to give up the DS tonight as well … like I said, baby steps.
