Disconnecting

I think I am going to challenge myself on Saturday... I think I am going to give up Facebook for the day, and see how much I really miss it.

When it really comes down to it, Facebook is just a time waste.  Yes, I update my status with "profound" thoughts and ideas.  But the majority of the time, I'm just looking up people, seeing who's married, who's had kids, what's going on in other people's lives.  Isn't this something I can do without the help of Facebook?  We have phone numbers for a reason...

Not only that, but the people I look up are people I know of, or I talked to years ago, and aren't really a part of my life now.  It's just an added worry, and honestly, gossip.

I'm not sure if I'm ready to give up Facebook completely, but last night, I deactivated my Twitter account.  I never used it anyway, and I found it to be a tool to look up people that I don't care so much about only to smile in their misery. (Horrible, I know, but it's what I did, and it's what I DON'T want to do.

Anywho, I will keep this blog, it's a great space for me to 'journal' about what's going on in my life.

I'll be back Wednesday with another fun challenge for the month of May!
