BertVille: End of an Era

End of an Era

Well, I just canceled my Friendster account. Three years ago, I joined in order to collect all of my real-life friends online. It was like baseball cards, but with people I know! But, those people have drifted out of my life, for the most part. Many were dancers who have moved to other states, gotten married and disappeared, or just plain faded out of my life. I never go to the Friendster site anymore. It seems superfluous. Silly in a way. Like a long lost artifact of a much different time.

And as I clicked on "Yes, cancel my account", I changed my mind for nostalgia's sake and stopped the page from loading.

But, alas. It was too late.

So, I'm jumping into the a new, grown-up, Friendster-free world with both feet. It was fun while it lasted, but it's over now.

deep breath

Welcome to adulthood.

Oh, so being on MySpace is totally grown-up? ;-)

Well, no. But MySpace is where I met my honey. (He and I have decided to come up with a much better story that involves pirates and mutiny.) So, though I've considered canceling my MySpace account, I have a more sentimental attachment to it.
