I am an awful blogger. I want to. I have things to say. I can even blog from my phone (like now). But I have become quite the blog slacker this year. Especially since discovering facebook. Facebook creeps in slowly. First its the cute little sidenotes into your fb friend's lives. Then that first request from a highschool someone you haven't seen in 20 years (and didn't really hang with but you accept anyway). You check out their pics, see how they've changed. See your old highschool boyfriend finally got rid of the mullet but not the chew (yuk). And then it happens. You get your first neighbor request and a free cow. That's it. All normal activity ceases while you plan crops, arranged in an aesthetic, but profitable view around your pink cottage. Then you open a cafe and have to plan ahead to be sure your customers will have food while you are away on a trip. (Unless you are lucky and a friend can hack in and harvest/cook for you). Then one saturday morning, when your stomach growls and you realize... You've filled your cafe with yummy food, harvested your squash, planted onions and milked the cows ...but not only have you not eaten, there's no food in the house to eat.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is the harsh truth of facebook addiction.

Now I have to go redecorate my cafe and look for new victims. I mean, neighbors.
