One tenth of the way done. Yippee! I wrote a lot of letters yesterday. That is a good thing. I didn't get a lot of responses, that is a less good thing. Less than half the people I have written to have taken the time to write back - so far - more could sneak in. One never knows, does one?
It doesn't really matter - I am not doing this project for them - I am doing this for me. I get satisfaction from composing so many similar yet different notes - I mean, each of my "friends" is different, so they deserve different notes. And I am doing it so I can see who these 408 people on my friend list are.
Yup, I have added two friends so far during the process. Sigh. I was supposed to lower the number of friends through this project, not gain friends. Oh well. the actual culling/cutting/defriending process won't begin, I have decided, until I finish mailing everyone. I will give everyone I am tempted to cut a month before letting them go. That seems reasonable doesn't it? And if they post updates at all during that time and don't bother to respond to my wonderful, thoughtful, pithy message, well, then, they might just could maybe be gone from my Facebook life - and they will be out of sight and hopefully out of mind...
