Cleaning House

Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ accounts all deleted. (MySpace was deleted long ago.) That feels better already.

I'm not going to listen to friends that try to coax me back. I was talked into restarting my Facebook account by a best friend about 2 years ago, but he rarely posts and I never post. Besides, that's not how he and I communicate with each other anyway. It was more of a, "I'm here, so you should be, too." I canceled it the first time around, because I simply didn't like it. I still don't, so I don't feel bad about dropping it for the second time.

I only signed up for Twitter so I could leave ONE message on a school-related conversation. I haven't been interested in it ever since it was first mentioned to me.

Google+ is just a different Facebook, and everything I don't like about Facebook is inherent in Google+.

I had absolutely no interest in blogs when Smokey first mentioned LJ to me (prior to the existence of Twitter, Facebook or Google+). Obviously LJ/DW has grown on me a bit. However, I still find I don't care as much about what all I'm reading. I'll have to give it some thought on how I want to proceed. I do really enjoy sharing things, and I know a few people who actively read my blog and are actively interested in my posts. I may just filter my reading pages or something.

Reading Too Soon As A Problem

I had never heard of hyperlexia before.

It's described as the opposite of dyslexia, particularly on a neurological (testable) level.

It also gives me a huge insight regarding my previous studies into dyslexia via the cognitive psychology lab work I did for my internship.

6/29/2007

That was my birthday, back in 2007.

That's also the date on my last NVIDIA GeForce driver update.

I'm a bad gamer. Either that, or I'm such an awesome gamer I bought graphics cards that didn't need to be updated for 4.5 years, which was actually the 5-year goal when I built this computer.
