The things in my head go 'round and 'round

This is my life. You can't have it.

Being a fan of being a fan

I Facebook way too much. I admit it. Facebook is crack. This has been discussed in the past, so I see no need to go back through it now.

Don’t judge me, I will try not to judge you.

That all being said, since we have gone through the “25 random things” phase, and the quiz phase, and the “how well do you know me” phase, we are now hot and heavy into the fan phase. Being a fan of something. A city, a state, a food, a televisions show, music, musical intruments, cars, whatever you want to be a fan of.

And yes, you can be a fan of being a fan. Love the irony in that one.

And it all leaves me cold. I understand that it is another way to waste your life away on the Facebook platform. And I understand that it is just another way for Facebook to get into your profile, and into your friends list so that its marketing tentacles can burrow their way into your life that much further. But please. Really?

Memorial Day weekend is here. The beginning of summer and the summer activities. Please make sure that those activities don’t include drinking and driving. A lot of people would miss you if you were gone.

Including all of your friends on Facebook.

Namaste.
