I did it.
I finally followed the crowd.
I joined facebook.
I know, you are all utterly amazed and can't believe it... or you don't really care. Whatever.
I was thinking this last week about what an isolationist I am, how I spend so much time all by my lonesome (and JG), and how I am horrible at reaching out and being social.
Now, I realized that in today's day and age there is technology that can help to temper such an unhealthy way of living. It's called social media, and I too can join the herd and connect with people I haven't talked to in years.
And I have! Old best friends, ex-boyfriends (ok, just the one), people I went to school with.
But, I do have to say that I'm only acknowledging the people with names I recognize (and let me tell you, I am terrible with names).
It's so weird to talk the people I haven't known anything about for so long. It's really nice to catchup and see how well they're doing. No one that I know of has ended up in a crack house with some nasty monkey on their back. And that is good. All is good.
The sky hasn't fallen the way I thought it would if I signed up. I'm actually pretty happy I did.

Glad you joined. I like facebook just because it reminds me that there are other living, breathing adults that I enjoy talking to and gives me the illusion of having a social life.
BTW, I finally updated my blog, in case you are interested.
