facebook

Okay - so I have finally joined the other gazillion people and now have a facebook page. The first week/10 days have been fun. Found an old friend from when I was young... caught up with some girls from high school... the usual stuff. Now. I am starting to feel voyeuristic. I look at their pictures. Read their profiles and their walls.... It is a way of snooping.... I feel so nosey. Then there is that logical part of me that says " don't put it out there if you don't want it read ". Do I care if random people look at my pictures?? Is there a secret part of us that wants the whole world to see us and see what is going on in our lives? Do we disguise it all as a means of communication? A way to keep up on each other's lives? Why don't we just pick up the phone and call them and see what is going on? Or better yet, how about a letter in the mail??

Is my age showing?
