And by that I mean going offline for a while. And by that I mean, just going online a lot less.
It’s not that I don’t love the internet. And it’s not that I feel like I’m wasting my time on it. I just feel like I’m burnt out on it.
I haven’t been good at a lot of things, but I have normally been good at the internet, even when I’m sucking at everything else.
This week I’m running on no sleep, far too much wine and way too many emotions.
When IRL was getting me down, I turned to the internet. Where I can (sometimes) be funny and charming and shit. But I tried too hard, the jokes fell flat and my grammar and spelling had gone to hell. My brain wasn’t working and I started to feel even worse. I figured looking to the internet for a sense of accomplishment and validation was pretty unhealthy.
So, I am going to step back from the internet for a while and stop trying so hard.
But I love you guys and I’ll see you again soon.
