The title is pretty self-explanatory. I am amazed but not surprised that it has been almost 1 year since I have posted ANYTHING here. I blame it all on Facebook and the ups/downs of life.
I am seriously considering deactivating my Facebook account (cue the collective gasp). Facebook was fun back in 2008 when I first signed up for an account. Now, it has become a huge time vampire...sucking away the precious down-time I have in the evenings. Yes, I should have more will power and exercise greater self control...but it is so easy to log on and just veg. Now, if the Chittendens would just come back to the mainland, I might just go ahead and deactivate the account. For about 1 month, I practiced self-restraint and limited Facebook to either the weekends or 5 minutes in the evenings. But then, in a moment of weakness, I gave into the siren's song of status updates, photo uploads and just like that I was hooked again.
I really could give it up quite easily, Facebook. I have a Twitter account, but do not feel enslaved to it. I believe this is because I use Twitter mainly for news updates. Plus, I do not follow too many people, place or things; and, likewise I do not have many followers. Maybe that is the key to social media sanity...limit your number of followers or friends.
Anywho, I am feeling a strong tug to post more here on the old blog. You never know what you may get but it will be my honest, non-PC ramblings.
Nighty, night y'all.
