I am officially hip

My facebook account, yes, facebook. Me. I'm cool. I now can tell thousands of people what I'm doing moment by monent. It's a cyber diary. Instant. If I go to the bathroom, I can post the event for thousands. Eat dinner, tell all what I just digested. Watch TV, share the experience. Do nothing, tell all. I have three friends. Which is pretty pathetic, since others have many more. Friends are those facebookers who found you, or who invited you to be their friend. I'm not sure what the purpose is. I really don't know how to navigate through the whole thing. If I were to put my address book in apparently through some program they'll search it and find all kinds of friends for me based on who's in my address book. But that seems kind of weird. I'm not sure I like some server going through my computer. If they can search my address book, what else can they find? My weight watchers log? Bank accounts? Seems a bit too creepy. Instead, me and my three friends just wait for others to find me. It sort of parallels my real life. I better go, I think one of my friends has made a new post. friends

Blog lady

We are all put to shame by the number one blog lady, Alexis. She is so good at keeping up her blog, keeping us all informed and making sure to post at least once a week. Where as, I'm lucky I get something up here once every three months.

There is so much to update, let's see:

1. new chair
2. Trip to NY to see the play - Nicole, Justin, Pete, Alexis, and NY cousins
3. work
4. hmmmm, can't think of anymore.

Maybe that's why I don't blog. If you were to break down my day, it would be: Get up/ exercise/ go to work/ come home/ go to bed/wake up, start the routine over again. And yet, I'm not sure how I would fit anything else in. Yes, I work hard and long hours, but geez, I could do more with my evenings.

Oh, there is the occasional go for a drink and dinner after work, then go home and go to bed. I marvel at those people who can actually make plans on a week night. Just yesterday, I was leaving the office and a coworker was driving downtown to attend a design group's meeting where they were showing a film. Yikes, all the way downtown (about 15 miles) and probably going to be out really late (the event was over by 9:30) I was amazed at his energy!

After all, how does anyone go out after work, the sun if down for goodness sakes, once the sun is down, I'm done. It's over. I wonder if it goes back to being a child, you know your mother would say: it's dark, time to go to bed! I think it scared me for life, and now once it's dark, it's time to be in my sweats and go to bed.

So, now that we're in standard time, and it gets dark sooner, I'll more time making entry's in my blog. Only problem is I need to do something to talk about.

It's a conundrum.
