Well, I think that I will need to again take some time off from Facebook and Twitter. As amusing as they can sometimes be, and as good as they are with keeping up with people, they are an enormous time suck. I don't understand how people with jobs actually keep up with them. I certainly don't understand how students, who must study, write papers, go to school, and do all the other things that students do, can keep up with not only FB and Twitter but Instagram, Snapchat, etc. etc. and so on and so forth.
In February, Facebook-Free February kept me away from Facebook, mostly. However, HWMBO being away, I fell ill with the flu (we believe) and that was an even worse suck than Facebook et al. So I had little or no ambition and just sat around. That didn't get anything done.
So I'm going to take June and July off from the same apps: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and YouTube. I will then force myself to tidy up things and ensure that I have space to function without becoming the third Collier brother.
I'm not going yet, but I'll be gone on June 1st and you won't see me until August 1st. So, if your birthday falls in that time, Happy Birthday! Many happy returns of the day! in advance. And if you need to get in touch, email me. If you don't know my email, be patient. August 1st will only be 61 days away.
And, I stress, there is nothing wrong with your television set, or with me. I desperately need to pay attention to our home and our environment. If I don't, we'll be drowning in things. And I'm hoping desperately that I won't get ill again and waste the entire time I'm away. T-16 days and counting.
