Well, it's been a while since the last update. Not much new to report. Dunno if I mentioned in an earlier post or not but I now have a weekly job as a karaoke DJ. It's fun to do and gets me some extra pocket money and is actually relevant to what I am about to say next...
Today I am reactivating my Facebook account. I know, it's only been off for 2 months, hell I was expecting it to be off for almost a year. The reason it's going back on is so I can increase my karaoke following. I'm going to try and friend as many people as I can from karaoke and then I can send them invites to future shows.
The crazy part in all this, I'm actually apprehensive about turning the account back on. How stupid is this? Its just a stupid website. Did it affect me that damn much? Sometimes I think I need to see a shrink or something about my whole Facebook addiction and fear bullshit. I turned it off because I needed to re-invent myself. Well i haven't exactly done that. Sure I've dropped about 25 pounds, but that's it. There have been no major changes in my life. I haven't found my dream career or started a family or gone back to school or anything like that. Once I mentioned that I believed that this was my life, it wasn't going to change, and there was nothing I could do to change it. Any chances of change and improvement were gone. That ship had sailed. I'm almost 40 and this is it for me. Maybe it's true and I just need to accept it.
Anyway, I am going to reactivate Facebook. I just have to remember that the main reason is for the karaoke and try not to get sucked into everything that was depressing me in the first place. Can I do that?
We'll see ......
Oh, on the weight front, I currently weigh 274 pounds.
