My hiatus

I'm taking a break from Facebook.  I'm not even posting this to my page, so if you happened upon this...you're just smarter that 89% of what I've been dealing with.  Congrats.


I've received more than a few calls and texts as to why I did this and how long it's going to last.

Let me start with the latter.... I'm not sure, but it could last a very long time.

The next answer is a little trickier. The simple answer is: I HAVE HAD ENOUGH.
I am sick to death of reading every thought that people have, every damn move they've made.  I am exhausted by the lack of creativity. I'm bored by the prospect of seeing one more time how you're potty training, or what you're having for dinner, how much you love Starbucks, that the laundry is piling up while you sit on facebook not doing it.  I DON'T CARE.  Nobody else does, either... they just won't say it.

I refuse to acknowledge the "Repost this if you blah blah blah" or the quizzes that seem to determine people and their self-worth. You're tired? You worked  on your day off? It's not fair? The kids are wild? You slept too long and you can't believe it?   SHUT.     UP.

 
here's a little observation:
      Everybody is tired.  you're not special because of it.
      Everybody works... if not at a job, then at home.  Everybody has laundry and dishes and vacuuming
      Everybody eats, and watches TV. 

There's enough bland in this world.  There's more than enough drama.  Does a simple social network need to add to it?

Think off the cuff.  Life is outrageous. To be funny is to be real.  to observe.  to see things differently.

Until I can go on to Facebook and not want to punch people.... I'm off.  I've already gone through and hit at least 50 people that bore me to tears, I couldn't delete them.... i do have a heart.
