| I think it's time to step away from the internet for a while. ( It's not you, Internet, it's me. Okay, that's a lie: it's you. ) I'm keeping my email accounts. Nobody can survive without email these days. (Even Don Knuth, everyone's token example of Life Without Email, hasn't really given it up — just gotten important enough that he can make his secretary read it for him.) There's two other applications that I'm on the fence about: LJ and AIM. The problem is, even though I use them 90% for procrastinating, the other 10% of the time I'm using them to keep in touch with old real-life friends who I care a lot about. And even if reading LJ is a horrible time-and-energy drain, posting here is still cheaper than therapy. (Only half kidding.) For now, I'm gonna keep the accounts but cut my friends list down to a bare minimum and see how that goes. I know, I know, that was horribly rude of me. But seriously, it's nothing personal. If it makes you feel better, you should feel free to say nasty, biting things about me in posts that I won't read anyway because I'll be out flying a kite or something. | ||||||
