Facebook

I finally joined Facebook. After getting several invites over the past few months I decided to take the plunge! I still feel like I am in a free fall. I don't understand most of it. I am not real sure if I am posting on my Facebook or another persons Facebook when I respond. I get posts that make no sense to me, but hey I am there! And isn't that all that matters?

There are games on there and I joined one. Again I have no idea how to play. I have all these people asking me fore things, but I have no idea how to ask them for things!! I think they actually want you to spend REAL money on there to buy stuff! Are you kidding me??? I will never spend real money on a virtual game site for myself, but it raises the question are there people that will?? Will they get so wrapped up in it that they will gladly spend money, if so then I need to start one of these game sites myself! I would like a piece of that action.

One of the things that I do love about the site is that you can find old friends. I have found a couple of old high school friends that I probably would have never seen or heard from ever again. I consider that the coolest part of the site. Another part of it that drives me crazy is the friends they want you to make that you have no clue who they are!!! They can be friends of your friends etc... I am very picky of my friends, so I don't want a huge friends base. I like the quality of friendship not the quantity! Does that make sense?

I wish they had a kid safe site because Gillian wants to get on there, but I don't dare allow her because anyone can become your friend. Can you imagine all the pedophiles on there. I just will not allow her at age eleven to be on there. Some of her friends are on there and she doesn't quite understand why mean old mom won't let her get on there even though I explained the reasoning behind it. These are the times that I know my mom is sitting up there in heaven just giggling away because Gillian is giving me a tiny dose of what I gave her! I sure miss her during these times.

Anyway, over all I love this new Facebook and can't wait to see what all it has in store for me :) Now how do I get my oldest son to quit cussing on there?? I don't feel like you need to type exactly what you are thinking!!! I sometimes think less is more. Do you hear me Matthew!
