Also, once again I resolve to not let the Internet run my life. I said this last year, and I’m not ashamed of renewing it. It’s difficult to find a way to execute this, since, as a blogger and writer, it behooves me to promote myself and interact with the online world, but there’s a difference between logging in a few times a day vs. prodding Facebook, Twitter, and comment boards into providing me entertainment as an alternative to actually doing something productive and creative. This lurking turns me into a snarkier, more irritable and paranoid person than I want to be, and as I get older, I want to feel better about the things I say and do online, and appreciate my real-life blessings more.
