Deactivate

I deactivated my  Facebook account on Tuesday. Just like that. Deactivate.

I decided I was somewhat addicted to Facebook. I mean - why did I really care about who was enjoying perfect family time with their perfect kids in their perfect world? And why did I care what people were doing at any given moment? And more importantly, why was it taking up my precious time?

So that was it. I deactivated. There is an option to permanently delete the account. I haven't brought myself to do that yet. After all, I have a lot of my life on Facebook. Lots of pictures, and lots of thoughts. So, I just couldn't bring myself to delete it all.

I may return to it at some point - but for now - this is what I have to do.
