With the advent of social networks like FaceBook, Twitter, Linked In etc. we can find out just about anything we want to about our friends and family members.
I will confess that I have gone through my FaceBook friends' friends list to see what's going on in people's lives that I either a)don't want to be friends with or b)just plain being nosy. Is this spying? Maybe a little. Is this an invasion of privacy? Again maybe a little. But if you use social networks and aren't capable of setting your privacy settings to control who views your information, I'm going to have to place the blame more on you :-)
A few of my girlfriends and I were having this discussion last night. One prefers to not be on FaceBook at all and prefers to have real person to person conversations. As in pick up the phone and talk! I know, talk on the phone, that was so 2 years ago :-) Why talk when you can text or inbox on FaceBook. The results are so much quicker and you don't have to waste any time with the Hi, how are you formalities.
How and why do you use your social networks? Personally, I like seeing pics of everyone's kids, vacations and quick snapshots/updates of people's lives WITHOUT having to have long, in depth conversations. In today's ADD society, I imagine many of you are similar.

Life is messy, joyous, chaotic, loud, sweet, precious, stressful,busy, exciting, short, irritating, fulfilling...you name it, it's all these things and more for me. Sometimes, I just need to express how it is for me at one particular moment, hence my blog. Thanks for reading!
