nice limbo you have here

maura @ 10:38 pm

This has been the longest day in the world. Falling back is the reason, I think. And yet, I didn’t even get everything done that I wanted to do. It was like daylight savings inertia took me over. Or maybe it was a sleep hangover: I went to bed @ 9pm last night. Or both.

I kept trying to do things like coop work and some lingering work emails and this dang blag. But I kept getting distracted by things like hemming a pair of pants and surfing random anticonsumerist websites and twitter and facebook. Also one cat kept jumping all over me and kneading me to death, then meowing pitifully when I tossed him off my lap.

Facebook is starting to take up way too much of my time lately. I mean, I like it, but I do kind of feel weird about the way it started out as an investigating-this-thing-the-kids-all-love-for-my-work thing (but not in a creepy treehouse way, honest!), and now I’ve suddenly got 102 friends — including all of my sibs — and my high school is recently in the hizzouse. I blame the phone. That damn phone just makes facebook too easy.

I still wish everyone would move to twitter. But I guess it is easier to comment and add photos in facebook. And neither have ads on the phone, which is sweet. But between twitter + facebook + the blag, it’s going to be a long month.

Yah, facebook is tricky because it sucks you in, and then suddenly you are checking it all the time. Plus there are things about it that you can only do on the web version, so I have to keep remembering to check it on the big computer too. Sheesh!

[…] We’ve all adjusted fine to falling back (11/2’s post). I like that it’s light when we get up, though I don’t like leaving work in the […]
