It is a good thing there is the beautiful creation of stumbleupon.com. Because I think I need to soften the blow of yanking the facebook rug out from under me by just spending more time on another addiction. This is the top stumbleupon link of the day: http://kev.needham.ca/gallery2/d/1433-2/jesus_wtf_big.jpg. It just made me giggle a tad.
I have gone without facebook before. I mean, the first 12 years of my life were without any social networking sites. I survived... right?
Anyways, this isn't really that big of a deal, but in all reality, I do spend more time on facebook each day than probably anything else. Pathetic. I know. I have always been a nosy person, but facebook enables me to bring my nosiness to the next level. I feel like I have some sort of entitlement to do so. If we are friends on facebook, then you are posting things that I have the ability to see. You are basically asking me to do so. :)
I think you know you've created something popular when people choose to fast from it for Lent. I've never heard someone say, "I think I'm going to fast from eating eggs." Because eggs are not delicious. (Okay, so that's my own opinion).
Well fellow facebook addicts, I am writing from the outside. I'm here to tell you that it is possible to go a day without checking your facebook. Hopefully, I'll find the chance to write everyday about new epiphanies going on in my life. (and my snarky comments that I usually post as my status updates. Yeah, those are going to go on here! :))
I'm very tempted to converse with my other facebook creepers about what is going on within the blue and white webpages, but I will try to refrain. Unless, of course, something major happens! Like a relationship status change!!!!!! (I'm being sarcastic. I know it is strange, because I'm never sarcastic. But I don't really think that is of utmost importance).
Tomorrow my post will be on relationships and how we are created to be relational beings. (and how not being on facebook aids/hinders this). Stay tuned.
P.S. I even turned off facebook texts from my cell phone.
P.P.S. If you want to still communicate with me. Use my email. Or text message. Or comment on the original blog post. (This is just an RSS feed on facebook-- click "View Original Message" at the bottom).
P.P.P.S. I did pretty darn well on Buzzell's exam today! :)
Love you to all,
Jess
