Well.....

Been pretty down since my Emotional collapse last month. Lots of self-examination.
One thing that was clear was that I'd become too dependent Emotionally on the online world. I'd thought about closing my journals but I think keeping them and just not put so much importance to them in daily life. I sign that I'm not the only one with this problem came up recently during a burst of activity on one of my Sourdough groups. It wasn't just that folks weren't Baking because of the weather, they weren't Baking....PERIOD. We were talking about Baking but few WERE(I'm one of the few that still WAS). Like much of my online world, Talk not Action.
Another thing I discovered unsurprisingly was that I'm OLD. Like I should have seen that one;>! Not just the tech(which I'm generally "up" with) but the various online cultures. Esp the alt.rel communities. Not only am I oft unsure what's being discussed, when I ask for clarification it's like being back in high school and asking something from one of the popular kids. Will the stuff I deal with daily in the Real World, I'm not really interested in playing status games with folks that haven't done as much in their lives as I had in mine before graduating high school.
I know it's not very coherent but it's been that kind of month and a half....
Cheers,
Pat
