So I had an interesting thing happen to me today. I logged onto my computer this morning to do my usual site checks: gmail, facebook, blogs. Yes, in that order. I put my email address and password into facebook, clicked log on and was met with a bright red message saying, "Your account has been disabled." I tried to figure out how this would have happened so suddenly and without my knowledge and all facebook gave me was this huge rant about how you can't make a facebook page for a fake person or with a fake name. At which point I wanted to yell out to the universe, "I'm real!! I promise!".
So as of right now, I have no facebook account. I have really mixed feelings about this. A part of me is relieved. I've almost gotten rid of my facebook account a bazillion times but I could never go through with it. Now that it's been done for me, an even larger part of myself is feeling lost, hurt and confused (just for the record--I am being purposefully over dramatic...). I've had facebook for five years. That's a long time. Do you have any idea what kind of a friend base I've built up?! Yeah, I don't know either. But a lot! And that's all gone now. And sure, I guess I could just start another one but...do I really want to do that? Would it be the same? Oh man, this news has really thrown a wrench into my day...so I just had to blog about it. Naturally.
And ps, last weekend we went to the hot springs up Spanish Fork canyon. Here is a picture to prove it. Well...I'm not sure it actually proves anything but trust me--we were there.
