I just quit Facebook.
It's true. And now I feel like a fish floundering out of the water! It's not a good feeling at all, at all! The only good thing, though its still not pleasant, is that I know that because I'm feeling this way that facebook wasn't a very good thing for me. It's not good to be too attached to things, even to sites.
The reason I decided to quit Facebook was because the only reason I went on there was that I had nothing else to do. Isn't that incredibly lame? To go on a site for hours at a time simply because I had nothing else to do? Yeah, lame. I could learn origami or something and become an origami pro in that time. Ridiculous.
We'll see how this goes. Facebook is interesting and seems useful, but I guess that people survived before it was invented and even, *gasp*, communicated! Remember those old-fangled things like the telephone and e-mail? I'm going to stick things out. No going back.
Hold me to my word, guys!

Little lights sparkling, falling snow glittering...
Drumroll, please!
It's winter! But then, you knew that. Where I am, it's been winter for almost an entire month! The snow is still coating the ground, and today at noon the clouds dusted us with just a bit more.
I love snow. I don't like cold much, but I love snow, so I can tolerate the cold if I can have the snow. I really do hope that it stays up until Christmas. Don't you hate it when you have a green christmas? I mean in the north, when it's not merely green but nasty, grayish-brownish-green.
Regardless of snow, however, I'm excited about Christmas. This year my little niece and nephew are going to be here for Christmas morning, and I'm beyond excited to see them waking up early and yelling in excitement over their stocking. When we trimmed the tree last Saturday (which they were here for) it was awesome to see the two of them concentrating so very hard to put the ornaments on the tree. Too cute.
I love my family alot. I'm really grateful that I have a cool family that loves me, and more importantly, that I can talk to. I was thinking to myself, and I honestly believe myself to be serious, that if I had every present I wanted and no family except my parents to celebrate Christmas with, it'd be a pretty sucky Christmas. I would much rather have my brothers and sisters home for Christmas and no presents.
Luckily we've got the happy medium, hey?
Merry Christmas, everyone!
