Taking the Plunge

It's hard to keep up with blogging when I'm constantly on Facebook all the time, or as one person wrote on another person's wall - METHBOOK!
I mean, if I'm constatly updating my status, what's the point of a blog?
Well, okay, here's something - I'm moving again this weekend - 20th move in 10 years. I blame living in the same house for 12 years growing up -- for my itchy foot syndrome. This time I'm co-habitating! and not just roommates, I'm talking coupon clipping, compost day, joint collaboration on decorating ideas, COMMITMENT!
That was a mouthful - some of you may be still picking your bottom jaw off the floor - so I should wait a second...
It's true! We're even having a housewarming party.. just a small invite of about 30 - seeing as how we live above a family - oh yeah, we live above a nuclear family - across from a family park - in a family oriented neighbourhood - no more making sure my vehicle is still in the driveway after a weekend away, no more watching for strange activity on a friday night - and no more getting high off the pot smoke from downstairs.... aww it's making me all nostalgic already and I haven't even moved yet!

Might As Well Face It..

Okay - Facebook - in my opinion is the trendy new drug of the internet world - c'mon try it - everyone is doing it. It doesn't cost anything, just enter a picture and your email address. Once you type it in - there's no turning back. Friends, lovers, ex-lovers, class-mates, college mates, ex-roommate's - EVERYONE can find you! creepy right? I thought so - in fact, I even "de-activated" or "put the needle down" how ever you wanna say it... but it dragged me back in. I went for coffee and friends would say, did you see who signed up on facebook this week?? and I would get emails from far away friends, saying "dude, check out facebook!" -- and there I was - entering my email address - and low and behold - facebook knew my name - they didn't let me go for good.. they knew I would be back!!! and now here I am - 11 o'clock on a Sunday - and JUST finished looking up friends of friends of friends of friends... and saying to myself... I may as well face it ... I'm addicted.
