Escape from Facebook - riding the blue pony.

Gooday to you. And also to you.

I had a few funny thoughts today so I think I'll share them.

Last month I deactivated my Facebook account. No big deal, I just didn't enjoy it and I thought it was taking up a lot of my time I could be using to do other things. So I deleted it. A lot of good and expected things happend after I deleted my account and one surprising thing. I'll share them with you now, as they all make me smile.

* I use my free time for getting stuff done, and when I'm done with that I actually relax. I don't incessantly scroll and check up on other peoples lifes

* I feel free to partake in any activities I want without have to take pictures or other wise document what I am doing or plan to do to gain attention for whatever I'm doing.

*"keeping up" with Facebook doesn't matter any more.

* I have my cell phone put away and its not dinging away with a notification every four minutes.

* I talk with my Husband about things that we want to talk about, not just about whats happening on Facebook.

* I don't have to read about people who have it pretty good complain about their lives every single day or sometimes multiple times a day. People are never that brash or annoying in face to face or phone contact. Common sense kicks in when they would actually have to verbalize the ridiculous shit they post on a news feed 100's of times a month.

* The best expected things are that I am less stressed, my life is simpler, happier and its pretty darn good. I complain less and enjoy more. There's no one to really report to so I find myself living more in the moment.

An unexpected consequence of getting rid of my facebook account is the countless angry mean looks and awkward encounters I've had with NUMEROUS people. Its funny really. I was wondering "Why is that person being so weird, or looking at me all mean?" This after a friendly approach on my part. It was hilarious when it dawned on me that they thought I had deleted them from my friends list or something. when actually I disappeared because I deleted my own account. Pretty much the weirdest and funniest thing of my day. You'd think there would be more important things to get riled up about!
Don't get cancer over it. :P
Peace out.
Good day babies - may the force be with you. and also with you.
