Yet again, I couldn't keep my mouth shut. Well, more like I couldn't keep my personal feelings to myself. At least this time, the person offended addressed it in private. I just need to post nothing but fluff on Facebook because no one wants to read my opinions and I just end up feeling like a tool every time I express them about something I am passionate or feel very strongly about. No one wants to read about how hard my situation is. People just want happy snapshots of the perfect and easy life of a housewife and mom, cute stories about the Bean, and pictures shares that are 100% uncontroversial. I never learn. I have been getting longer stretches between these episodes of my own douchbaggery, but they still happen. Sometimes I hate the internet.
As my uncle says, "It isn't Facebook, it is Affirmation-book." I just need to make sure that everything I post is affirmation worthy and has no real substance. People don't want substance and if they do, they only want it to be on their side of things. I need to be more like my mom and just lurk, not participate.

I loved your statement you made today!!! If thats the one you are referring too. People try so hard to sugar coat everything, but reality is that life isn't sugar coated no matter how hard we try to make it that way! Truth is girl you aren't lying to yourself, be 100% happy with that and don't let anyone change your ways!! Love you girl!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Elsa. Your comments always make me smile. You are awesome!
DeleteI feel you. FB is evil and stupid. That's why I do all my bitching (pardon my French) on my blog. It's my space and people enter at their own peril. :D
