Saying G'bye to Facebook, Temporarily?

The title says it all.  I think that I am done with Facebook, at least temporarily.  I find myself on it too often, with no real reason.  The status updates are rarely insightful or significant in any way and I find myself just wasting away my free time, hour after hour.  Currently, both children are asleep, and I've spent an hour, just perusing my Facebook, refreshing the page every so often, just to read somebody else's insignificant rant about nothing.  I mean seriously, does anybody ever think of anything original, ever?  Apparently not.  And since I am not any different, and I have nothing original to say either, why bother?  Maybe I'll spend more time blogging, maybe I'll spend my new free time cleaning the house (probably not), watching a new TV show (one addiction for another?) or reading a book (what a "novel" idea, lol), whatever it is, it will not include reading about "Sally's" crappy morning at the gym, what "Joe" ate for breakfast, or how much "Billy" hates Republicans.  It's called TMI, and I kind of think that a lot of us are suffering from TMI Overload Disease mixed with delusions of grandeur.  The mundane information overload is addictive and makes you believe that any and every thought that pops into your own head is worthy of an important exclamation to the world.  When in reality, ehhh...not so much.
