Hello, I’m taking a break from you

I’ve decided to take a week off from my favorite internet distractions (reddit, somethingawful, twitter, tumblr, facebook, ITP student email list, ffffound, flickr). 

I’m not doing this because the internet is bad, or because I don’t think those sites are worthwhile, I’m doing it to reduce the number of distractions in my life. I recently wondered about trying to get a prescription for adderall. I wanted to get a prescription not because I’ve ever had issues with ADD, but because I have issues with concentration. We all know that the internet is splintering our consciousness into a million little blinking pieces. I’d like to gather some of those pieces back together; I’d like to take the time to think about what it is Facebook et al do for my life, as well as maybe think about developing a better workflow.

Back in a week.
