Are We Friends?

I spend way too much time on Facebook.

I Facebook from my phone checking status updates and micro-blogging way more frequently than I would care to admit (even to myself) and I'm always on when on my computer. It's fun! I love seeing and making new friends, building new connections and finding old ones.

I have reconnected with several friends from my past that I had lost touch with. I have also become closer friends with many people I've known over the years but was never very close to. It really is a fabulous tool.

I was never into Myspace. I still am not Linkdin or share my Namez- or whatever it is. But Facebook? It's like crack... if I knew what crack was like that is. And as much as I'm reluctant to admit, I even own a farm.

I've already connected with many people who I first became acquainted with through their blogs. But I wish I was connected with more. Between the posts that show up on my reader, I often wonder what people are up to or how they are doing. (I am nosy like that I guess.) So I decided to send out a friend request here. If you read this (or I read your blog.... yes I realize you probably don't know that I do because I never comment, but I do and I'm planning on trying to be better at that) then I want to be your friend.

The email I use for my blog and all the comments is a special email that gets forwarded to my personal email. So if you have searched for me with that one, it won't show up. However, I am there. Search for me with my personal email crysmartin11 (at) gmail (dot) com. This is where I beg...... PLEASE!!! I want to get to know you better. I want to build friendships and connections.  I want to get to know my readers better.

And if you have a farm.... I'll even be your neighbor. But if you don't, I promise I will NEVER send you an invite.

  3. You're right--FB IS today's crack! But I don't see as much when I'm checking things with my iPhone. I rarely see you online--and I've missed you. I think someone gave me a farm or a zoo or something for my birthday. I just lurk and find out what my "peeps" are up to, and play dumb games like bricks building (or something like that). Glad to see you're still out there in Cyberspace!
