An Open Letter to Facebook

Dear Facebook,

Yes, I know I said I was taking a break. I tried to quit you. Really, I did.  You and me we have a love hate thing. I love you but, I hate how much time you suck away from my life. I love that I can connect with so many people but, I hate how the people that live in my house need me to connect with them, too. I love that friends old and new chat with me daily, I hate that I can't see them or hear them in person. So, I took a break in Jan. and most of Feb. but, here we are again. See, its times like these when my little sister is so busy working in NYC on her BROADWAY debut (very PROUD of you J.!!!) and I have not talked to her in weeks (here come the tears) that I need you. I need you to keep us connected. I can see her status updates and know that she is alive, well, and just busy. Too busy to make a quick call or text me.  Quitting you also meant that I TOTALLY missed it when Misty announced that she was moving to Denver! What, when, and why I am not sure yet. I am still reading Older Posts. Dang, see what happens when I tried to quit you. I miss stuff. The what's going on stuff that people put out there that I just may want to or need to know. You know? So, FB what I have decided is that I am going to see other people "real" ones (i.e. my hubby, boys, dog, etc.) most of my time. You know, on week days and nights. And spend time with you and my "virtual" peeps early mornings when I can't sleep, on weekends, and during football season when my hubby and boys are up in the man cave yelling at the TV and could care less about what I am doing or if I am even in the house. Oh, and mobile-y when KP is driving and I am sitting shot gun and the boys are in the backseat watching a DVD. He, he. You ok with that FB? I hope so. And so with that I would like to dedicate this song to you Facebook. A great song by Kelly Clarkson made even better by the cast of Glee (Sorry Kelly, but girl you know its true)! Its called (and as much as I  hate to admit) My Life Would Suck Without You!! The lyrics say it all, FB.

Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you 


Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you 


'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you 


Being with you
Is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you
But I can’t let you go
Oh yeah 


'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you


Yours truly and since we're being honest until the next best thing comes along (remember Myspace).

XOXO,

P.S.  I cannot lie. I live for your comments and messages. Knowing someone is listening, feeling like me, and or cares is special. I like having a place to put funny status updates even if talking about myself in the third person still creeps me out. Knowing I made someone laugh makes me smile. Is that so bad? But, shhh all that's our secret! :P
