Hiatus

I've decided to give up Facebook (for a month, to start). It's rare that I post anything there, but I do look at it a handful of times each day, usually at moments when I should be doing something else. But that's not even the main reason I'm giving it up.

Mostly, I'd like to be more selective about the things that I read. Not having so many stories at my disposal every day may be a place to start. There's only so much I can fill my head with. And I plan to be more thoughtful about what those things are. Too often they are determined by a Facebook prompted rabbit-hole that, while wildly interesting and often important, just isn't what I meant to be spending my brain energy on.

Instead, I'm going back to books. And magazines. And the Sunday paper.

They seem like enough for now.
