My family has found my Facebook page. The experience has been interesting.
Nothing against my family, it's just that with their discovery comes a surge of people I have no idea who they are. Yet they know me because they're some half cousin-auntie-momma's best friend who used to wipe my butt when I was little or got a good laugh when I was shoving my hands in their cleavage cause they thought it was "so cute". Both of those examples are real btw.
Also with this comes the revision of my page and being super paranoid about what I put up, if anything. Seriously, I never used the damn thing until recently. Like MySpace and Twitter, Facebook is just another outlet people utilize to get other people to validate their own existence. I hop on initially, but after a few weeks I get tired of it, finding no personal value in them. Nevertheless I have them, and considering my family can now hop on I guess I'll be using it a bit more. Therein lies another problem, I don't have much of anything to say.
I guess I shouldn't sweat it. I just won't say anything or reply to their comments. I've always felt very far removed from them yet very close. I dunno. To be honest I don't like talking about anything relating to myself much at all so in fact it doesn't have very much to do with them really now does it?
Phew!
Glad I came to that conclusion!
