I feel like I've forgotten who I am.

Man, digging through DW and bits of LJ I can see through the javascript remind me of who I was 12+ years ago, and I have to say, I miss that guy. It's one of the reasons I like to stay up late, because it feels like that guy wakes up more at night.

And sure, there are reasons for the changes -- getting married, having a kid, getting older -- but there are also bad reasons -- Facebook, for one.

I am swearing a mighty oath to reduce my use of Facebook, and flow out more to the interesting corners of the net, and IRL too.

Interesting read on evolution
