As a leading expert in the field of Schedule-itis, I've seen it all: the late-night gaming sessions, the 3am study marathons, the "just one more chapter" book binges. But when does it become too much?
Jane was a model citizen of the Schedule-itis community. She'd chug a Venti Iced Coffee every hour on the hour. Her social media profiles were a testament to her dedication: "Just finished a 36-hour gaming session!" "Just wrote 1000 words of creative writing!" "Just ate 12 energy bars and a whole pizza by myself." But one fateful night, it all went too far...
Jane's descent into madness began with a 5am trip to the local convenience store. She returned home with 5 gallons of coffee, a 6-pack of energy drinks, and a box of "just one more" energy bars prophets. The next 48 hours were a blur of code marathons, video game tournaments, and a faint whispering in the voices of her loved ones: "Jane, stop... just stop..."
As it turns out, Jane's loved ones staged an intervention. They hid her snacks, took away her phone, and forced her to watch an endless loop of cat videos. Slowly but surely, Jane began to recover. She started small: 1 cup of coffee per day, 1 energy drink per week, 1 energy bar per month. And slowly but surely, she returned to the world of the living.
So, how much is too much? It's not just about the amount; it's about the context. If you find yourself in Jane's shoes, it's time to take a step back, reassess your priorities, and maybe – just maybe – take up that hobby you've always wanted to try.
