Facebook scares me
Thursday, April 19, 2007
I mean, I already spend far too much time online. To create a Facebook page and then invite every single person in the universe I know to be my friend...sounds like a lot of fun...or high school all over again. ;)
On MySpace, I only made it halfway down the first page of the registration form before I totally chickened out. Heck, isn't having a blog scary enough? Especially one that your relatives read? (Hi Dad!)
But, as some friends have told me, Facebook really could change my life. Make me a staaah.
Only you and I both know that Facebook won't finish writing my novel for me. And that's what it really all comes down to: getting the revisions DUN so that I can start the next great Bonnie Staring creation.
I do have some photos that I would put on my Facebook page if I had one.
Like this one of the movie theatre marquee that the makeover show I was on (Style By Jury) did up when they took over a theatre to show me footage of myself wearing really ugly clothes on the big screen.
Did I mention that I was wearing horizontal stripes? I still wake up screaming at night.
Oh, and who can forget Mr. Uglyfish? He deserves his own Facebook page. It's just hard to do without thumbs. Or hands for that matter.
And you know what would happen if Mr. Uglyfish and I both had Facebook pages. Everyone would invite him to be their friend, not me.
I wouldn't blame them though, he's a hit with the ladies. ;)

Oh, do the facebook... it's so addictive and fun! My sister invited me last week and I've already reconnected with a pile of friends from high school and university.
But yes, Facebook won't help you finish Suds. It may even keep you from finishing Suds. But it'll help you advertise the hell out of it when it's done! *Grin*
Facebook has become a huge time-waster for me. That said, I wouldn't give it up...it's just too much fun.
Facebook rocks! It is addictive I love it. I didn't think I would. JOIN THE DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE.
I would totally be Mr. Uglyfishes friend.
Okay, you're all scaring me. How about I join Facebook AFTER I finish the revisions as a cool reward? Yeah, I think that would work for me...
Thanks for the tip grammar geek! I'll put you down for one copy. Or two...
Cavan, aren't you missing the next installment of "When Good Pets Go Bad"? ;)
Amy, keep your hands off Mr. Uglyfish! Focus on Gerald Butler instead.
It is midnight... I work at 7 am... I just logged onto your blog after spending the past hour on Facebook. My nightly ritual.
"Facebook. Exciting and new. Come aboard. We're expecting you."
How can you resist the singing!
All the cool kids are doing it!
OMG laura f, you're on it too?
Well heck, that means all the cool kids really are doing it! Okay, let me get the book revisions done, then I'll start this new...hobby.
