Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays.

Facebook went down Monday morning across the East Coast004 Archives with error messages telling users that "something went wrong."

"We're working on it and we'll get it fixed as soon as we can," read an error message displayed to one New York-based Mashable employee.

Facebook, for its part, said it was working on a fix.

"We’re aware that some people are currently having trouble accessing Facebook," a company spokesperson confirmed over email. "We’re working to resolve the issue as soon as possible."

And, in all likelihood, this outage will be resolved quickly. However, if you find yourself enjoying these Facebook-free moments, consider making it permanent.

UPDATE: Nov. 12, 2018, 11:53 a.m. PST: According to the same company spokesperson, everything is now fixed.

"Earlier today, a routine test caused users to have trouble accessing or posting to all Facebook services including WhatsApp and Instagram. We quickly investigated and restored access for everyone. We’re sorry for the inconvenience."
