Facebook

I have really enjoyed facebook over the last six months. I must tell Paul thanks for getting me hooked up. Especially with the move, it is a great way to stay in touch. But most of all it has been amazing that friends I have wanted to find, but couldn't before facebook, have found me. Every time a friend request pops up it is so exciting to see who will be there.

However, it was not until yesterday that I had actually been deleted as a friend. I went to look for a friend to send a message, and the friend wasn't there. So I sent a friend request with a note that I thought we were already friends.

Her response, "We were friends, but you never write anything so I deleted you." I guess she keeps a tight group of friends on facebook. I have more of an open door policy. Sometimes I get a friend request and I can't recognize who they are at first. But after I look at their pictures and see who their friends are, I remember and usually a flood of fun childhood memories come back to me. And I smile.

Hey,
I enjoy your posts, and am happy you're enjoying FB :)
I have a truly "open door" policy with respect to "friends," but occasionally one or two drop, only to be replaced by new "friends."
Hope you're well.
Would love to chat sometime soon.

Facebook is fun, PLUS it counts as networking.

haha! I didn't recognise your pic with that beard and reflection on your glasses :) So you are a blogger too - fun! I haven't had the honor yet of being deleted :D What's up with that? You gotta write on somone's wall all the time to stay on a list? Whatever...

This week I've been completely non-productive because of this FB thing. Everyone from my past has suddenly popped up on my computer screen and I'm having a hard time keeping up. It's so much more fun than folding laundry though :) So glad to have found you again, and I definitely won't delete you, even if you never say nice things about me on my wall :D

I'll be catching up more with you soon...so nice to see you're lovely family on FB!
