I must admit that while I do have a facebook account, it’s not something that occupies a huge amount of my time. There are too many irritating things about it. I for one am constantly bombarded with requests to do this or that, or bite another zombie, or take a movie taste challenge. To be honest I have neither the time nor the inclination. A lot of the people who send these are good friends of mine, and I always feel really bad when I ignore the request of my girlfriend, or a close friend, but I have decided on principle not to do them.

But yesterday, having signed on, I found a new crack-like way to pass the time, and that was the ‘recommended friend’ feature. And there was a whole evening gone. Now I have another rule when it comes to social networking sites, which is to only accept the friendship of people who I have actually met, or at least spoken to enough to genuinely call them a friend. But nevertheless, so many old acquaintances made my head dizzy. Now to sit back and see if any of them remember me.

This weekend I am spending a rather pleasant weekend with my ladies, but it is being somewhat undercut by the constant wave of nausea that hits me when I remember that I will, in the next few days, be finding out if I have a tremendously exciting new job. So to distract myself from this question, I present you with a picture of my little Rosie. Isn’t she cute?
