Postcard from Mr Hyde that he posted from his vacation in New Zealand

It has been quite a paradoxical start to the morning today. I knew that the last post was bound to get some harsh reactions but I had to get it out of my system and that is just what I did. To start with I woke up and like everyday went online to check my mail and stuff. There is a social networking website that I have a profile on, though I don't like the idea and don't use it much. The only people I have met through the website are some class mates from school. I fail to understand that when I wasn't even on talking terms with them in school why would I want to be in their 'friend's list'!!? I am not being a prude but all through school I was always trying to blend into the background and now I don't understand why should I be in their 'friend's list' just so that the could boast of the highest number of people in their list. Anyways during one of my mood swings I deleted all those people from my list and all that was left there were 6 people I genuinely wanted to stay in touch with. One of them was Hobbes. I presume he read the last post and as a reaction to it deleted me from his list!!! Wow is that another facet of technology that we rather just 'delete' someone than have a meaningful in person conversation leading to a proper understanding or closure. Well I didn't know what to do and I don't want to say or do anything in the heat of the moment and so I a going to keep my reaction to the situation under check. It's like when Carrie was dumped by the guy on a post it!!!
And in between all this I received a postcard from Mr Hyde that he send from his vacation in New Zealand. In this day and age when everything is fast and instant from food, communication and gratification its nice to see that some people still believe in the old world charm of postcards and taking things slow giving them ample time to mature and age.
