BEEN ON A BENDER!

Well if I hadn't fallen off the facebook wagon yet, I certainly have now.  I found myself on a social networking bender posting all kinds of randomness to whatever I could get my hands on!  I even signed up to tumblr and started posting to that!  I was like an old homeless guy at an all you can eat buffet...and I AM FULL!!!

If I'm to take anything away from this experience it's that facebook isn't necessarily all bad.  Many times it would've been the fastest and most effective way of contacting people.  In fact, there were times I didn't get a message through that would've easily been received had I used facebook.  My family back home will be happy to see me online I'm sure (well my mum at least).  But, I think it'll be my own self gratification that wins out the most.  Knowing that someone (other than the 18 Russians viewing my blog) will be reading my posts, sharing in my thoughts, and, in a way, participating in my life, will fill a small emptiness that has popped up here and there when I see or hear something amusing and a look around to find nobody to share it with.  If I don't have any real friends, then hey...at least I'll always have virtual ones! ; )
