Facebook.

The more I read up, google, and research FB.. the more I realize what a joke it is.  FB has been proven to do many negative things... from lowering students grades, exposing people to more divorce-worthy situations, and causing people's self esteem to lower dramatically.

Call me crazy, but it isn't worth it.

I mean, we are living in a de-sensitized generation as it is.  I can't imagine that FB is improving that, AT ALL.

I mean, think about it. When somebody asks you why you have a FB, the usual answer is, "to keep in touch with friends and family."  Well, what about e-mail?  I mean, seriously, how well is it helping you to keep in touch with friends and family, by signing onto FB religiously throughout the day, and reading 500 different status updates?  Because I bet that's what you do.  I also bet that not even a quarter of those were friends and family.  I'm not pointing fingers and calling names.  I think mostly I'm trying to convince myself that I'm going to be okay without FB.  Because let's face it... I LOVE FACEBOOK.  I'm just coming to terms with the fact that reading what people are doing throughout the day, isn't really something I have to, or need to do.  I don't even know half of them.  I mean, sure, we've been online friends FOREVER... But that even just sounds ridiculous.  Not only that, but why the heck do I feel the need to keep others updated in my life?  I guess, for once, I'm all about privacy.  This is my life.  This is my marriage.  These are my children.  It's crazy, when you run into someone from HS, that you haven't seen in years, and they're like, "Yeaaa, I saw what happened, from FB."  WHAT?!?!  It's a shame.  I am sort of wishing that I lived in an older time, with just enough technology to help medically.  Things are just out of control....

Err... oh well.
