The way in is the way out

Well it finally happened.. Through all my complaining about Facebook and threatening to leave it happened today and I'm not sure how it happened.. Either I got my account hacked or... something else happened.. And through the past few hours I've been trying to get it back.. And trying everything there is to get it back and the more frustrated I got the more it seemed out of reach.. And then.. After so many tries I have no idea how many.. You know when you really want something but are denied getting it, I will find a way to get it.. But this time I took a step back and thought "Why do I want this so badly?"..  I mean truth be told I've wanted to get away from Facebook for the past few years now, why fight to get it back.. I took to searching for a new social site.. Found one, well actually found a few but one sticks out like a old friend.. MySpace.. That's right myspace, why??  Well it's as easy as any to get on to, I don't think I have the old login information in the save this banks on this computer..  Then I looked at facebook again, tried to log in and jump through the hoops to get it going again.. And then gave up and deleted it from my speed dial.  Wow that was so easy it's freaky.. Should have done whatever I did years ago.. Whatever that was.. But after looking seriously at other social media sites.. I thought if I can't get FB to go again I'll just give up.. That's easier than trying to give a shit.. The last time this happened I switched to another site.. From myspace I started my first page on Facebook.. And a few years later got away from it because of the sheer number of followers.. I never wanted a thousand people I had never met to be my friend, so I got out of that one and started up one with my (almost) real name on it.. I was just about to try to use my real name but then whatever this is that happened happened.. And so now I am thinking will this be the end of Facebook for me.. Not sure.. I mean like I have said I have looked at  other sites but none have that jump out at me appeal that Facebook or Google+ did.. And Google plus was a lark to be honest with you, you start a new G mail account and get Google plus as a plus.. Which isn't that great, it was by invite only when I got my first plus account.. Now everybody and their dog can get a plus account.. But I will give it three more strikes and then FB will be history.. The hoops that I tried to jump through would not even appear to make an attempt to jump through.. I don't know how people get their hacked accounts back.. I thought mine was last week but it turns out they just wanted me to update my password...  How do you get your account back if it has been hacked???  I'll have to Google it I suppose.. Or give up.. Seems like a lot of people do..
