Going cold turkey on Facebook

I couldn't take it anymore.  The updates, the quizzes; the utter rediculousness of it all...

 

I had to quit facebook.

 

I was spending so much time on there, and updating my status so often, that I had little time for other, more important things.  I was starting to update my status IN MY HEAD.  It was too much.

I am not the kind of person who can just check in once in a while; ignoring the link on my drop-down menu that was calling "just look for 5 minutes, it won't take too long..."  Bullcrap!  30 minutes later I was still looking at vacation pictures, wishing I was on vacation.  Or doing a stupid quiz.

 

The real thing that was the last straw was the people who never respond.  I'd do a comment on their post, they'd say nothing.  But the comments from people who also responded, most of whom I don't even know, would arrive in my mailbox. 

 

The 'friends' who would rarely update, or comment, probably had jobs.  So if people who had jobs don't have time to post, but I do, then perhaps if I spend some cycles on other things, I might be able to find work.

 

One day and counting.  It's nicer out here.
