After the shiny new glow of Facebook has finally started to fade, I'm discovering that I'm missing things I used to do online to keep busy with. Like blogging! I predicted that joining Facebook would divert much of my attention throughout the day and I was right! I find so many things on there to keep busy with, I forget all the other facets of online life that I shoved aside in the meantime. The games, the (Lil) Green Patch, Flair, photos, videos, groups...the list goes on and on!Facebook has it's fun and it's 'worth', if you will. But when it comes to writing, it doesn't hold a candle to blogging! I feel completely open on my blog to express myself and have my time to really get it all out there. On Facebook, you are sort of limited in characters in some areas and you really only get to express tiny blurbs here and there as different topics arise.
Well, it's time to get back to other things! It's also about time for some Vegas vacations too, but that's a whole other topic!! It's time to get back to my regular game site, Gold Token. It's time to get back to emails, for goodness sakes! I've had this one friend I've intended to email for months now! Good grief already. So Facebook, I love ya, but it's time for me to refocus and you're gonna have to step back in line somewhere else.

I know a few people who have abandoned blogging for Facebook/Twitter. I'm like you, I need a blog to say what I have to say in detail. Facebook is fun and fast for the little stuff. I find myself posting ideas too small for a blog post over there. The big, serious ideas take me hundreds of words to say my piece.
I know the feeling! I have facebook, but my blog is special in a different way. I haven't had much time to read or write lately, though. I hope you had a blessed Easter.
With facebook, I was able to find my cousins in England.
I am disciplined though - it can eat up your online time like you said. And, I have a website to run too!
