Facebook... need I say more?


You know the conversations you have that are social "hey how are you?" The replies "Fine thanks and you" Blah blah blah. Now, hardly anybody I know has these conversations, instead they are having them on Facebook via status messages.


I admit it, I am one. I am probably one of the biggest offenders... if not THE biggest offender.


Some days, whether you want to know about my day or not you will find out. Is this the reason you have barely had a blog to read. Yep, sure is. I am addicted to Facebook. Its sad, its pathetic, and I love it. My mother will give me an update on a family member, to which I reply "I know, I read it on Facebook". We keep teasing her that if you really want to know anything about us, join Facebook. On an average day, I have read statuses of friends that say things like:


"Dear Coffee God. Thank you for your bounty." --Obviously this is someone who is not a fan of mornings, and a big fan of the bean.


There is the whoa is me person "I am having a bad day, and I do not want to talk to anyone" which means post 30 comments so I know I am loved. Attention getter, yep. Effective for the most part.. sad.. definitely.


"home sick because my stomach exploded from the inside out" Thank you for sharing that information, I know now 1) that I need to stay away until it clears out and 2) to make sure if I go anywhere near you to bring hand sanitizer. Gross.


"3 months, 2 weeks, 3 days, 21 hours, 5 minutes and 3 seconds until (insert item here)" when you have it broken down that far, you need a life. Sadly you are probably so far gone that you have already mapped your route to the place you are going and mentally planned a test run. Don't worry I don't judge. I have been that person too.


"(Insert item to be pimped) is the coolest thing I have ever used!! You have to try it" Ok. I am sure you are a huge fan of whatever item you have, that is great. One post a day is fabulous, 30 is annoying.


"(insert name) has just sold their crops in Farmville" ugh. anything related to Farmville, Cafe World, Farmtown, lil Farmtown, fishworld.. any of the other ones oh wait and even Mafia wars I don't mess with. I have enough addictions I don't need more, however if you are not on my farkle list, I will add you and send Chips (see?)


"Good morning! the sun is shining!! and today is a wonderfully fantastic supercalafragilisticexpialidous day!!!" Yea this person just needs to have the crap slapped out of them on prinicpal.. nobody is that happy without a drug test. Quick someone let's get this puppy tested.


"is proud of her child ______ because he rocks" I love these. I do. I love anything that anyone shares about their kids or their pregnancy. These we will keep forever :o)~


"Did you see tonights episode of NCIS? I was so shocked to see what happened to _________ and ______" only they don't use the blanks. Nope, they tell you.. ARGH!! ok ok I did it this summer with Big Brother.. .but I wont do it again (after i got growled at) but i see people do it all the time.. yep I get it now.


then there are the ones "little Peggy Brown is gone, she has been missing forward this to 100000 people and she will get found if it was your kid, you would want someone to do it" Ok. the problem is nobody checks Snopes.com which tells you Peggy Brown does not exist. She is not missing. Use snopes people.. seriously.. ok? ok. Whew got that out.


Ok. I have vented now. I gotta go. . I have a status to update :o)~ More soon. Oh and a winner to my blog contest. I have some email entries and one comment. Come on people.. Jennie's bows are amazing!!

This cracked me up!! I have friends who post almost the same things. I couldn't even go on Facebook last night because I watched the Project Runway finale DVR'd and delayed by about 30 minutes. I knew they would give something away.

Oh, and I was the same way about all the towns, worlds, etc. Then I got into Farm Town at my daughter's request. Now I'm addicted and need to go harvest my strawberries!
