Now I remember why I had never joined Flickr groups. Aside from the fact that I’m not by nature a “joiner” (I’m a “do what I want and if you want to come along, I won’t stop you”), having to be even virtually social makes me tired, and I don’t like to have all of those “new posts in your groups” messages on my page because it looks like stuff I need to do (even if I really don’t). I don’t even belong to many groups, but if I wanted to keep up with the new posts, I’d have to sit here all goddamned day. Now, one of my contacts (added him only because he added me first and some of his stuff is pretty good) has sent me not one, but two invitations just this morning. I ignored the last two from another contact (I like almost all of her stuff, so I added her), and I’m going to ignore these, too. My pro account runs out in June, and I might just let it expire, then register under a new name and hunt down the few contacts that I really do want to keep. I don’t want to be rude, but damn, people make me tired. Even virtual people. 😉
