So I’m recovering from a bad cold or something and I was too proud to put a facebook status like, “being sick sucks!” or “need to get better before the party this weekend!” just to elicit comments from friends such as “awww, get better soon!” (disclaimer: if you are a girl, this behavior is OK. Don’t ask me to explain this)

And since the only thing I had to contribute to facebook would’ve been “being sick sucks!” I just didn’t go on at all. Two days turned into three turned into a week. I was off facebook for a week!! And you know what? It was strangely fine. I went back today cause I had some stuff I needed to post anyway and… everything’s the same! I’m kind of… disappointed. I think I went to a few friends’ profiles (read: my band) to see what was new and scrolled dispassionately through the deluge of bad party photos and Asian American entertainment news (note to self: expand circle of friends in order to dilute ratio of actor friends) and realized I wasn’t as addicted to facebook as I thought. Hm.

It was like someone took a fish out of water and the fish went, “no, I can’t breathe, put me back!!” And then started breathing and was like, “oh. I’m not a fish.”
