I go back and forth on if I like social media or not. I am on the fence most days as to if I want to get all ties to online connections like facebook, twitter etc except email. But is that really a social media? Email I mean. I am an all in or nothing person when it comes down to it.

About a week ago I tried to take a "facebook break". It did not last 24 hours. I realized it is my social network. I do not have much outside of it. And what does that say about me? I am not sure. I do find myself having less and less friends the older I get. The common thing in all of this is myself so I cannot put any blame on others.

I do keep trying to find a theme for this but so far nothing has presented itself. Some of the ideas I have had are: music blog, specifically for my area. The thing is I do not go to shows like I did when I was younger. I do not know the scene as I used to or thought I did. Plus, there are many music blogs out there that do it so much better than I could. Another idea is a gaming blog, specifically dungeons and dragons. Again, many are out there and I feel I would be repeating what they are doing. I have a place where I update the D&D campaign I am running so no need to put there here. And no need to talk about my computer gaming either. I am borderline bored with the games I am playing at the moment and nothing out there has sparked me enough to go pick it up and give it a try. Talking about books is another option. I have been reading more the past 2 years or so than I have I guess since my college and graduate school days. I think I will list the books I have read so far this year:

The Hunger Games
The Godwulf Tapestry
Bitterblue
The God Engines
Where the Hell am I?
Return of the King
Lovingkindness
The Two Towers
The Hobbit
Dragonsong
The Fellowship of the Ring
Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe
Prince Caspian
Voyage of the Dawn Treader
The Silver Chair
Surprised By Joy
The Horse and His Boy
The Magician's Nephew
The Last Battle
Screwtape Letters
The Children of Hurin
