Unplugged

24 hours ago I logged off facebook. I deleted the app from my phone and this is the first time I've turned my computer on since my last post. I feel like I can admit that I have an addiction to social media. Not that I post or am active much I am constantly nosing around other peoples posts.

Last night after having a "religious" argument and almost starting a political fight I decided that it would be easier to remove myself from the internet than deleting the majority of my "friends list". I am hoping I can stay away til after the holidays, but as it is now day two I am feeling the strain. Like any habit this just needs to be broken and once I get past it I hope I can return only marginally. 

I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I seriously feel that if you're going to put your thoughts out on a public media you should at least do  a little research so you don't look like a pompous idiot. Yes the government as gone full moron, and celebrities die or put their foot in their mouths JUST LIKE EVERY HUMAN! Nothing you say on social media is going to make a difference! If you seriously want to make a change get out from behind your laptop and do something! As for the people who start arguments simply for arguments sake, GET A LIFE. If you honestly have nothing better to do than start political/religious/life choice fights on FB then I am very sad that you have such an empty life. 

As you can probably tell even after 36 hours I'm still a little heated about it all... 
I didn't delete my page or announce that I was taking a break, I simply logged off. I guess we'll see if anyone notices.

Luckily I am going back to work next week, so I'll have something better to do than check facebook every few minutes.Oh yeah! I finally got hired!! I start Monday after postponing a week to find childcare. Luckily we've found a lovely woman who genuinely likes what she does and loves all the kids she already has. So here's hoping and praying everything works out well.

Stay Tuned and wish me the best!!!
