Am I Faking It? (MAYBE)
HEY, FAMILY!
Know what?
If I still Owned even one half the Erratic Rage that y'all think I used to have..
I never would have survived. I've survived. And learned, lots!

Ha! Perhaps I felt like I had something to Expound Upon...

And perhaps I just grow more alarmed.. and more tired of the whole FACEBOOK crapola.


WHAT/WHY is that entire phenom... overpowering my own personal Blogability??
I don't play fb games. I rarely linger longer than the 30 seconds it takes me to drop a quick post into my own News Feed,
and to note that NO ONE SEEMS TO NOTICE THAT I DO!!!!

So? I would ask myself... why I even bother. I found FACEBOOK thru a number of invites that I recived during the year that I was offline, and was tickled to find BLOOD FAMILY that I hadn't spoken to.
In years.

I've wondered about them:... from the ones that knew me as an online or telephone presence, to the ones who haven't shown much interest in many decades.
I think lots of them had pretty much forgotten who I ever was, if I'd ever even met them.
Again: We're talking BLOOD Relatives, who've left me wondering over the last 30 years or so just why they really never wanted to know me.. since I wanted to know them.

These are the folks that are 80% of my FACEBOOK friends! I was so totally thrilled to start the hookup
thingie with these people!

Yet? We're all doing this FACEBOOK thing... where we acknowledge each other as friends...but we still don't know Shit from Shinola about who we are, what we think or do, or care about.
WHY DON'T WE TALK TO EACH OTHER?

Yeah, I am Calling You Out, oh Relatives of Mine:
I am hurt. Also a little angry, but mostly confused about just exactly WHO'S JOB is it to try to re-connect any Family Stuff, eh? (This part of getting back on the Internet, reminds me of why I so easily (HA!) quit doing it a few years ago)
yet my own mother (whom most of you apparently LOVED) always told me to be 'ladylike' in your own head and heart..
Carol Pistel was pretty cool. Ditto double-ditto for her little sister, Claire Inhelder-White.

So who's the cool ones of us nowadays, eh? (Linda Is. Robin Is. Katie Probably is, TALK TO ME!!!!!!

I'm putting this HERE... so that I don't expose all 46 of my FACEBOOK friends to my bitchier side.
Being the dedicated Writerly Soul that I am.. I'll probably link this to my STOOPID FACEBOOK ACCOUNT,
knowing that anyone I actually am related to probably won't bother to follow a link LOL.
I now return you to the facade of the cheerful, polite, harmless little Magz ya all know n shake yer heads at.
And to my Dad, Conrad.. always.

Which of you BLOODs, will ever admit he was part of this?
