I have avoided Facebook for a loooong time, but a few months ago I finally gave in to it. I am now connected with most of my family members, quite a few friends, and a cool surprise last night. I received a friend request out of the blue from England. Now, I only know a few people in England and the name matched one of them. I sent him a message "do I know you?" and he sent me one back that was absolutely convincing, so now I am connected to my friend Jon.
Facebook can be very addicting. I have one friend that enters several times a day with what he eats, who he sees, and whatever else he can come up with. You know who you are! I also have a niece that does pretty much the same thing, but it is mostly about her little boy, who is as sweet as can be. I have been lured into playing quite a few of their silly games. I have a fish tank, 2 farms, belong to a mafia, and am learning to be a wizard, among others. There are cute little quizzes you can take, which are really meaningless, but fun. You can then post what the result was. Not me! Mostly it is nonsense. I did post that I am a good kisser and sexy! The others? not.
Another thing about FB is that you use your real name. Ack! Friend requests from people I've never heard of take a little investigating. Usually they turn out to be someone from this site. Fun finding out who you really are! Myself, I don't say much, but I enjoy reading others' comments. I have to be careful what I say cuz my family might get the wrong idea. lol
So, this is just my thought for today, not a request for yet many more friends. Altho, if you do the detective work to find out my real name and send a request, I will perhaps honor it. That's all. Gotta go check Facebook.
