BTW...I do not understand this picture at all, but I like Napoleon Dynamite and it said facebook. ha.
This started the other day when my boyfriend brought up the fact that I am addicted to facebook. Unfortunately, no matter how much I want to disagree, it's the truth. I get great satisfaction finding out what is going on in other people's lives even if I haven't seen them in five years. Honestly, I probably get on facebook like twenty different times a day. I am a loser.
So, we made a bet to see if I could give up facebook for a whole week. I started on Wednesday night, and I am ending next Wednesday night. I am not gonna lie, this is a struggle, and I might have had a tiny withdrawl this morning....:/.
I tried to change my mindset from thinking it was a bet, to a fast. Fasting can be an amazing thing. To take something time from something that consumes a lot of my energy, and transfer that time to things that are more productive. I've chosen to take my facebook time, and have a devotion in the meantime. Plus, God knows that I will need his strength this week....hah.
My roommate was thinking about giving up facebook for lent...let's just say she is a better woman that I am, I am sticking with a week. :)

Nicole! You are so sweet :)
Haha I like your Napoleon picture.... I have to admit that I'm slightly a big facebooker as well. Although, last semester during finals by best friend and I changed each other's passwords so we couldn't log in for two weeks. That's the way to go, girl. But good luck with your fast, I like that you're considering it that. I think it'll be a good time. Love.
Too funny! I don't have a facebook page because I know it will be a time waster and I haven't wanted that temptation. But I love the idea of keeping up with everyone. Almost my entire family has a page and they keep telling me to get with the program!
I think Aaron was wise in telling you to take a break though. I always (well not always, let's be honest) appreciate when Patrick holds me accountable.
love ya!
