A few days ago I became disgusted with Facebook. Yeah, I know. Like, who hasn't? But we keep going back to it, don't we? It wasn't the site itself, the ever-changing policies and privacy settings that you don't hear about until someone tweets about it, it wasn't Zuckerberg considering lowering the age limit in order to broaden his advertising options, it wasn't even the darn apps. It was my friends. And perhaps the friends of my friends.
I was tired of seeing questionable, exaggerated, and totally fabricated political/social messages being sent without anyone stopping for a short time to verify any of the information. And that was coming from both sides of the aisle, as it were. So now I am out in the no-man's land that is Google+, of all things, a social thingummy I'd almost forgotten about. It's not the same, which is a relief.
And what has happened? Well, I'm still in mourning, but I noticed that I've started blogging again. This may be my sixth blogpost this week. In fact, I might be able to finish a novel before National Everyone Start A Novel Despite Having Nothing To Say month starts in November!
Free time I never knew I had has sprung up! I washed and alphabetized my china teacup collection! I've started making my own Chai Lattes. I had three yesterday and by the time bedtime rolled around, my hands were shaking! (I've been drinking decaf tea for several years now because I was having trouble sleeping.) I've only had two this morning and I am giggling a bit much. I got up around six to feed the cats and stayed up - watched a feature-length movie before breakfast! I seem to have more energyevenifsomeofmywordsarerunningtogether now and then! I'm using more exclamation points!!!!
It's only been a few days and I've had to cut down my furniture polishing to one item a day so I don't wear the wood down.
I can't wait to see my shrink!
