The relationship
rule
You will only be on my personal profile if we actually
have a relationship! This means either a) you are
a very good friend who I can actually be myself
around or b) we are married. There is no “c.”
The one-month rule
If I do accept you
as a “friend” and then realize we don’t
even communicate on FB, I will delete you. This
rule even applies to my hubby. I don’t use
FB as a means of saying, “Oh look at me and
how popular I am! I have 5,098 friends! I am super
cool! I don’t see a point in keeping you there
if we don’t even talk in person, let alone
on FB.
This is where it gets
tricky because I have run into problems when I have
done this. Some people took it personally and were
so offended they actually called or emailed to complain.
“Well, fine, if you’re not going to be
my friend on Facebook then I’m not talking
to you.” Really? You’re not going to talk
to me? What are you, in kindergarten?
Seriously, dear
diary, it’s not me, it’s you.
And so begins my love
affair with Twitter.
It’s great! It’s
quick, it’s painless, and it’s nothing
personal! Sorta reminds me of my younger days at
Club Malibu or Barry Ts.
Anyhoo, Twitter offers
the convenience
of me letting you know what MOM is up to without
feeling like you’re snooping into my underwear
drawer.
I can let you in on
all of my witty updates that I usually save for
Facebook but you don’t have to request me as
a friend! If you decide to leave, no one gets hurt!
It’s a win-win situation!
Another reason
I have become mildly addicted to the Twit, is that
I get to converse with people all over the world
who I wouldn’t know, otherwise.
Plus, it allows me
to start my world domination of MOM! My tentacles
will slowly reach the other communities and bring
forth the message of MOM!
Lord knows, there are
other women out there like me!
Right?!? M
