My Space

Two nights ago I couldn't sleep, so from 2:30 a.m. until 5:00 a.m. I created a myspace and facebook page. I know a little bit of an over kill. Unfortunately that's pretty much the way I am, an all or nothing kind of girl.

So, yesterday I coerced Sam (14) to help me arrange my page and put a song on my facebook page. All the while my kids are mocking me, like I am the only mother who has a myspace page. I actually did it because of several other people I know in business who have one.

Now my very clever son Gabe tells me he can quickly get me a thousand friends on my pages if he contacts all of the people on his. I'm wondering, Do I really want all of those people as friends?

So now in the midst of my already busy life, I have added two more things to be a slave to. We'll see how it goes. Sometimes I need a diversion and sometimes I need to be diverted from the diversions.

This comes from the "other mother" with the facebook page, who also gets mocked by her kids for being too old for such things.... I think sometimes we need to just enjoy our diversions, frivolous or otherwise, and see what happens! I got to reconnect with you, as well as other long lost friends, and found your blog and inspiring words along the way...see, there is a reason you couldn't sleep after all!!
