This evening, I rode my bike twice around Stone Mountain Park's inner loop (9.73 miles in 47:03). I hit my fastest average speed for that route (12.4 mph) and my fastest speed ever (29.3 mph)!!!
On Tuesday, April 30, 2013, I deactivated my Facebook account. I do not plan to reactivate it until Monday, September 2, 2013.

Paul's Year = Ashley Joy's Week?
My friend just texted me about this guy who gave up the internet for a year. This is insane!!
He says that what he missed during his year away is the same that I am missing in just my week off of it. Will I be able to last this long?!?!

First Week
It has been a week.
My productivity has continued, but I have found a new love, a new distraction...Buzzfeed. I used to read Buzzfeed before, but not like I do now. I am going to have to limit my viewing time.
I do feel a bit disconnected from the people, from the world. Outside of Buzzfeed, I continue to read the news a lot. I miss out on somethings because of I do not see the hidden news stories that some of my friends would post. I miss reading what my acquaintances are doing on a daily basis.
What is funny is that I mentioned my departure to three of my closest friends and none of them knew that I was even gone. I must clarify this and not make them seem like bad friends, but two of the friends are rarely on it and I told them a couple of days after I deactivated.

Got Got by Spotify
I went to sign in to Spotify, which reactivated my account.
I had to sign into it to deactivate again. While there, I saw I had 11 new alerts. I did not click on it, but I am so curious what they were.
Oh well, the account is deactivated.
I created a new Spotify account.

Why I am Doing This? -- Reasons 001 - 003
001. It caused me so much anxiety.
002. I was (am still) mildly addicted.
003. I need to have control over my time.

First Four Days
It has been four days.
I have attempted to go on Facebook a few times. It mainly happens when I am sitting down with my phone and I am feeling, but do not realize it, slightly bored. I scroll over to the page where my Facebook app used to be. I pause and realize, "it is not there, I am not on it and I am just bored". The most obvious(and funniest!) infraction was when I clicked on the window in my Firefox most visited pages where my Facebook page used to be. Another page opened and all I could do was laugh and shake my head.
It is amazing how productive my Thursday and Friday were at work. I got so much stuff done. I am not sure if it is because I was really busy or if it was because of the lack of Facebook or both.
