So I'm lonely and I can't even eat my feelings with the food I want. (Taco Bueno, I miss you!)
I recently read an article about how people who spend a lot of time on social media sites are less happy than those who don't. Well, I disagree. Maybe I shouldn't have given it up this year. I almost didn't, but the point is sacrifice, and it is something I miss.
So what do I miss? I miss feeling connected. Facebook gives me a sense of being connected to others, whether it's a true or false sense. Right now I feel disconnected. I was not truly aware--be it denial or something else--until I gave up Facebook. I don't know which is sadder, that I am depressed without Facebook or that Facebook tricked me into feeling less alone than I am? Thank goodness spring break is next week and I will get to see one of my best friends and some wonderful family members :).
I know we are over the hump with this whole deployment thing, but some days (evenings especially) are harder than others. I guess tonight's just one of those nights.
This too shall pass... Hopefully soon!
