What I Really Want to Say




Do you ever read some Facebook statuses and just REALLY, REALLY want to post what you REALLY want to say but it would be WAY to rude to do so??? My fingers just itch to do that so many times. So, I decided since this is my blog and I can say what I want, I'll just turn my fingers loose here :)

So...agree with me, disagree with me, hate me or like me...these are just my opinions.


To all of you Facebook status updaters who refuse to use grammar:

Do you realize how hard it is to try to read your status?? Oh wait...those are some of the ones that I skip over because it makes no sense without punctuation and capitalization! Really!! We learn to read with grammar. I just don't understand how it is so hard to not at least try to use a period to separate your sentences! Surely you were taught the basics. Surely. It makes my head hurt.


To all of you Facebook status updaters who change your status 20 times a day and feel like you need to tell people that you are going to brush your teeth or straighten your hair:


WHO CARES!!!!!!!! I can't think of a soul that wishes to know that information. I think that is a pretty good sign of an addiction.

To all of you Farmville (and other games that I don't know) players:


WHERE do you find the time?!?!?! Oh wait...I guess if I did have the time, I could find something to do other than electronically planting corn or feeding non-existent animals. Maybe I would......read a good book or watch a good movie....or maybe I would go grocery shopping so I could regain my decent-wife position. AND...you totally blow up everyone's news feed with stuff that nobody cares about. Just sayin'

To all of you Facebook users who "share" 82 links per day about random happenings, products, etc:


I just want to know one thing......is it part of your job??? Because if it is, I really want to know where I can apply.

To all of you who like to give details of your departure and arrival dates of your vacation AND check-in at EVERY. POINT. ALONG. THE. WAY:


You sure do make robber's job easy...



Just another thought...

It seems ridiculous to me that someone goes to gettin' all mad (via FB status) when someone asks about a status that was posted (before gettin' all mad status). My feeling is that if you don't want people to know, then ya wouldn't put it on Facebook. If you put it on Facebook, even if you don't tell what "it" is but you make some reference to it, you obviously want someone to ask about it.



I have to steal a couple of my mama's because we pretty much think just alike :)

Taken from mama's blog:


WHAT IS THE PURPOSE of people (especially teenage girls who are otherwise beautiful) taking vast numbers of pictures of themselves making the most awful faces with tongues hanging out, eyes crossed, etc. What are future mates/employers/children/grandchildren going to think? And if they DO (for some odd, completely unfathomable reason) still want to take the pictures, why do they post them for God and everyone else to see? I don't get it.

Can we be honest here? How wonderful is the person you are eating/riding/singing/vacationing/whatever with if you stop in the middle of it and tell everyone what you are doing? I mean REALLY. Friday night Robbie and I went out to eat. He had stayed at the river all week to save money on gas, and I had missed him. We picked up the boys' birthday cake, brought it home, and went to eat. We talked and talked. I filled him in on all that was going on. He told me all about his week. We had a great supper. I had popcorn shrimp. He had a hamburger steak. The restaurant was very nice, the service was good, the price was affordable, and the food was good. None of it was as good as my company. But you know what? It never crossed my mind to take the time to post it on facebook. My  company was too good to take that time away from him. Often I have told my children (biological and school) that if you have to wear your soulmate's name on your shirt/car/truck/bookbag/notebook for people to know you love him/her, maybe you should rethink your actions. That's kind of what I think about those kinds of facebook statuses. 






I honestly think that some people's lives revolve around what they would like their Facebook status to be...crazy.
