<p>I have unplugged a lot more recently, and weird ... I sleep a lot more and am less stressed out! I'm already on a computer all day long for work. I'd rather spend my free time WITH people, instead of online with them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A few of my really close friends, who are 10 years younger than me, refuse to join facebook and I don't blame them! I love it for keeping up with people, communicating information, etc., but sometimes I go days without being on it and I tell you ... it's impossible to catch up with the newsfeed or notifications so a lot of times I don't even try. One thing I did early on was shut off all the notifications via email. I don't need an email if someone commented on someone else's photo after me, thank you very much!</p>
