you must chill... i have hidden your keys

Lloyd Dobler -the keymaster.... right on.

Sorry, I got carried away with movie lines - can anyone name it?

OK, so people, I stirred up a little fury passion amongst you, didn't I?

Facebook is officially a love-hate relationship. You either love it or you hate it.

I get it.

Lest you misunderstood me last time, let me just emphasize once again that I was looking for enlightenment...

Maybe you got distracted by my witty banter.

Those of you who love it, let me just say that I kept my page, I even added a picture of myself for crying out loud. I am really open to seeing what is fun about it.

But I don't understand the games, the bling, the poking and the very public comments for all the world to see. Why not just email the person?

Just wondering what makes it fun FOR YOU.

So, stop calling me an old fart (Fischer, you know I'm the funnest girlfriend you have!!! (yes I meant to say funnest)), and give me a little grace.

And for the love of all that is good and holy, if you have known me for any length of time, you'll know I'm not judging or calling anyone crazy.

Laugh with me okie dokie?

please enlighten me

OK, what the heck is the deal with Facebook?

I'm a thirty-something year old housewife and mother of four and my college friend sent me an email to see her Facebook page. So, after some significant hurdles of creating passwords and finding out who in my email address book might already belong to this teenage phenomena, I got to see her page.

MEANWHILE, pretty much everyone in my address book got an email saying I wanted to be their "friend." On top of all that, it was pretty much just MINUTES before the majority of them were responding.

Something's going on here.

My next door neighbor has a Facebook page - and she's 54 years old!!!

OK, I've been warned that I'll become addicted, but after perusing a couple of my "friends" pages I have to say...

I don't get it.

What's the attraction or addiction? Why has this flooded beyond teenagers who are growing up with no face to face relational skills, to real mid-life adults who have jobs, marriages, kids and mortgages???

Leave me a comment and tell me please... because as it stands now, I'm quitting dear "friends."

About Me

My photo
Messy and wonderful perfectly describes my life as a wife and mom of five. I'm passionate about advocating for orphans by telling their stories and encouraging adoption and orphan care. My schedule is messy and wonderful as I am charged with four sons and one daughter. We love living in our little mountain ski town. We do a little camping, a little skiing, a little hunting, and a lot of laughing and loving. Life is dirty and loud around here but we wouldn't want it any other way. Okay, maybe a little less dirty!
