I never thought it would come to this; I may be going into Facebook withdrawal. It's only been 24 hours since I made my decision to abstain from Facebook, and here I am, actually wishing I could go check my news feed. I'm actually missing be able to check on people. Hearing about how (INSERT POLITICIAN HERE) is the anti-Christ? Not so much.
Am I tempted to break my Lenten resolution? No. It was an impulse decision, so I didn't have enough time to prepare myself; hence, the weirdness I'm feeling right now. Also, see my previous post about my serious lack of impulse control. But I am resolved. It was doing bad things to me. But I had to at least acknowledge that this may not be quite as easy as it seemed yesterday.
And besides — my wife will tell me if anything real happens, so it's not nearly as self-centered as it sounds.

Avram said he would not check his facebook for two weeks (he was saying how he never checks facebook, and I was asserting he does more than he thinks he does, so he said this), and on the very first day, went to the website automatically, until I reminded him of his decision. Not that he even meant to break it - it was just one of the places he usually checks. I think habit can be a very powerful thing, for good bad and time sucking. Of course, I know I spend too much time of facebook - that's why I haven't made any declarations ;)
Oops - that was Thora, of course.
I figured. Avram hasn't started referring to himself in the third person — yet:-) Thanks for visiting; you and Yvonne are probably my two most faithful readers.
