Facebook—the Sequel
Feb. 13th, 2015 06:30 pmI've been on Facebook for years. I'm sure the Zuck could tell me how many years to the third decimal place. I got a lot of enjoyment out of it. But as you will have read previously, I found I needed extra time to do things around the house. I signed out almost exactly one month ago.
The first result was that I felt a Facebook-size hole in my mind. I wondered what people were doing. I wondered what was being posted in my groups. But, relatively quickly, this feeling stopped.
For the first week I got a lot done. But the amount of time available for household reorganisation seems to have fallen. I should have predicted this. I have taken a couple of peeks and made one post saying that I'd declared February 2015 Facebook-Free-February so wouldn't be back until 1 March. But, with HWMBO in Singapore for Chinese New Year, being alone makes me a bit anxious. And I've had flu for nearly a week now. So I've had no gumption this week to do anything.
I may therefore extend the Facebook-Free time into March. The longer I go without it, the less I think I'm losing from not seeing it. When the house is neater and my study is well-ordered. perhaps then I'll consider going back.
