Messaging

Stumbled upon this li’l gem this morning:

My bad if I’ve ever left any of y’all on read... I didn’t mean to open the message.

Seriously though, does anyone else go through phases like this?

I do NOT envy those who have to respond to any/everything on their phone in a timely fashion. That is not a life I’d design.

On a similar note, today marks fourteen days off of all social media. Since I really don’t miss the Facebook anymore after so long (784 days today), and since I’ve been super annoyed by the obligation to keep a snap streak of dark rooms and computer keyboards going... with little to no acknowledgement of any commentary added to snaps from my end... well, it was time.

So, I just turned off notifications. Let them collect.

Shout out to those of you who reached out to make sure I’m alive: Julisa cornered me in person, Amy texted after a few days. Even my iPhone noticed—apparently my screentime is down to an hour and fifteen minutes a day average. That includes my daily crossword puzzle. And texting.

I don’t really miss any of it. No Facebook. No Instagram. No Snapchat. Life is good. Let’s see where we go next.
