I am so horrible at keeping up with all the different types of social media these days. I can’t even completely commit to this blog. I’m probably one of the only 20 something career girls that does not have an iphone or blackberry, and really doesn’t have any interest in getting one. I hate being accessible, and because I’m a ‘proactive’ type of person, I believe that being constantly connected would ultimately lead to my admittance into the psych ward. Ok, maybe not, but still. Sometimes I think I want a iberry, mostly when I’m standing in line at the grocery store or when I’m lost trying to get to South Coast Plaza. But then I see all my peers, constantly checking their phone, emails, facebook, whatever, and I’m sure it’s great, feeling that important, but honestly, I think it’s rude. I’ll be in the middle of a conversation and Peaches will just whip out their phone, all nonchalant, and start giggling because someone posted something on their wall. (Side note: Peaches is the name of my cat, and for lack of brain power, I’ll be using his name as a placeholder for many things to come). My resistance might also come from the fact that I’m hooked up to a computer for 9-12 hours a day. I’m lucky enough to have a office job that doesn’t have crazy high security settings. I can go on Urban Dictionary and find that my name is another word given for the Vagina, and I won’t get any security alerts. At the end of a long day at work, the last thing I want to do is check my phone to see if my attention is needed anywhere other than the gym, or at home in bed. I’m sure I will eventually surrender and maybe then I’ll be better with keeping up with old friends on FB and updating my blog. Until then, if anyone reads this, I apologize in advance for my lack of posting.
