Entry: Laura Thursday, October 29, 2009



Laura, You took quite an odd hit today on Face Book.. as for me when you posted about deleting people.. had I known it was people for games only .. I'd have kept my mouth shut. But I know first hand that often I meander away due to work or illness, mostly family. I'd be very sad if I came back and couldn't find you!! So, I imagine those that are quiet would be the same way if they suddenly lost touch with you... and I didn't want you to ever delete someone and find out it was a mistake cause as you might have figured... people get their feelings hurt then ask questions later. And those questions are always asked of the wrong people.. I just didn't want you to do something you might regret..

In the end though, it is YOUR Face Book and YOUR friend list. I just was adding my own two cents worth! You can always take what I say or leave but really.. we all know if I speak it.. it must be gospel, right? (( Try not to choke on my exaggeration!!))

Your Obama thing.. it was a joke and should have been taken that way. But any time you post ANYTHING .. just know it has the potential to upset someone. But a joke you liked, your own thoughts, your plans.. anythng, .. it is what makes you.. special.

In fact, it's what makes us all special. We are all different and all think differently. We accept each other at face value. None of us filled out forms to pick and choose our friends.. we take them at face value and love them despite what we may or may not agree on. We agree to disagree cause we're friends.. cause we are tolerant of each other.

Anyway, don't let those that disagree with you get you down.. it would be a might boring world if we all agreed, wouldn't it?
Love ya.. and Friday too!

THANK you! OMGosh ... I had NO clue that was even coming! It was just a funny joke to me with a bird so full of **it that it couldn't fly! I liked Static's rebuttal and suggestion of what not to post. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks!? I've learned some things today for sure ... and one was that I truly do have some GREAT friends!! My love to both of you'ins too!!

Awww! How did you know I'd be reading ... or that I'd be getting more and more paranoid that I fueled the commenting on Laura's FB post. Whether you meant you love me too or I love Laura too, it would be right in both instances.

Honest, I wasn't trying to be ugly or contrary although it may have come across that way. Actually I was a little offended by the person who posted so seriously bcos I thought it was a funny joke. I mean, funny is funny -- no matter who it's about. If you changed the whole story around, changed the job description & responsibility and inserted my name I would have laughed just as hard.

I agree with this post. We are, all of us, different. Even when we agree, we express ourselves differently.

Frankly, some people on FB scare me a little. I never thought online life could be so complicated, demanding and time consuming. Neither did I think I would become so emotionally connected to people I've never met. I love you both!
