Well, I’m back and I’m riled up….

The previous lovey dovey posts, the ponderings about my love life or lack thereof, and mancandy are all taking a back seat for a moment on this blog.  I’m in the process of trying to doll up my new site, The Dress Up Doll but until I’m officially ready to let go of L.i.M.A.E I will probably posts on both. The purpose of starting The Dress Up Doll is to highlight my varied interests. Depending on the audience, the social group, or my general mood, a different part of my personality dominates. Unfortunately,  L.i.M.A.E was beginning to seem a bit too schizophrenic and chaotic. I also felt restricted in my ability to justify posting about politics, sociology, recipes, beauty, etc….I find those things just as interesting, if not more, than meeting “Mr. Right Now” “Mr. Right”.

One of my favorite sites, GOOD.is, had this amazing infographic depicting food security. Now, many of my peers may not have this as a concern but as a public health worker and a single mother on a strict budget. Planning a healthy meal, grocery shopping, and living within my means is a very real concern. Honestly, there’s been a time that I’ve foregone a meal, eaten a smaller portion, or NOT eaten to make sure that the mini-me had a health share.

Google+ is a lonely world when you don’t have a lot of followers or people to follow. Secondly, I feel like a techy-reject. The learning curve migrating from Facebook to Google+ seems to be a big one for me. I won’t say how long it took for me to find the “invite friends” link.

I will say that it is quite pleasing to know that I won’t log in to see the tags of people in Nike photo albums or the Louboutin sale album. *whew!*That is a relief.

Although, Google+ seems to be a stalker’s dream application, not saying I’m going to stalk anyone, but the application does make it simpler than Facebook. Hell, the locator feature lets a potential stalker know exactly where you are. Seriously though, I am a little fearful that I will inadvertently divulge my location at the exact moment that a potential boo interrogates my whereabouts. I already suck at lying, it would be my luck that the boo is logged in to Google+ to verify.

A bonus of the application is that the fear that arises in thinking that one day there will be a Facebook app that let’s people know who has visited a person’s page and the number of times is nonexistent. *whew!* Not that I Facebook stalk or anything.
