The Whole Digital Getdown

Ok...Ok...Zoe sorry. Ima lagger. I dunno if tonight should have been the night but I do have alot on my mind....

Technology has allowed us to remain close to those that are far away and even closer to those that arent too far. For me lately its been very bitter sweet. I am more than excited to share things with family and friends back home and chat with people everywhere about everyday issues of life. But I am also the type of person when I see/read something, Im most likely going to talk about it, respond to it etc. Thats just me. Ive been doing this online stuff since high school. I used to sit up all night when I would be at my girls house (we had no computer at home) online talkin to people (also b4 the weirdos took it over). I enjoyed the freedom of expression and "door" to other people and places. You can say what you want and if someone didnt like it, they could block/delete you or respond and go at it. Ahhhhh those were the days.....

NOW, online networking with so called "friends" seem to be a big ass headache! People getting offended, you reading stuff, getting offended. Why did you say that? Or why didnt you respond to me? Just dumb and petty stuff when you can pick up a phone and say whatever it is you have to say.

People put alot online and then expect everybody to agree or back them up. It doesnt work that way! God gave us free speech! And were excersize it how WE (each individual person) sees fitting. If someone puts a comment to some one, and thier clearly being fake, whats the harm in pointing it out to them? Are you oh so wrong? And I thought your "friends" were supose to be the ones to tell you about yourself good and bad (however thats a WHOLE different blog)? If you didnt want anyone to have an opinion, maybe online places like myspace, facebook, twitter etc. are not places you need to be! Send a text. An email if you wanna! Get off social networking sites where you have 300 or more friends and expect not to touch, offend, upset, make happy, etc. at least one person!

Wheew. Ok. Sorry. Just had to get that off my chest. Hopefully my next post will have more substance and a brighter tone. JJ and I are goin to Vegas this weekend to let off some steam and relax! Boy do I need it! SO stay tuned....I promise there will be pics! :)
