Dave, I'm blaming you!
Yes, that's right. I'm blaming you, Dave, for sucking me into the crack addictionesque thing that calls itself MySpace. Thanks a lot. :o) Now I have an excuse to spend my time on the internet until 3 AM.
So it's not entirely Dave's fault. Ryan, Kim and Doug (3 of my siblings) all have pages too. And Mel and Jana both have one too! It's been cool to keep in touch with everyone that way. I do feel incredibly old when I'm there though. I've been able to find friends from high school, family that lives far away and friends that live just around the corner. Majority of the people on there are at least 10 years younger than me.
On a side note, when did it become cool to not use punctuation and captial letters? And when did incorrect grammar become the thing to do? I keep finding myself squinting and staring at the screen trying to translate what they are saying. Like this:
"wuz up? hows skool going? sry i havent talked to u in a while. plz 4give me. ill talk to u l8r. kewl? luv ya!"
TRANSLATION:
"What's up? How's school going? Sorry I haven't talked to you in a while. Please forgive me. I'll talk to you later. Is that cool? I love you!"
Does anyone have one of those english-teenage dictionaries? :o)

I plead the 5th. I deny any and all acts of malfeasance. I can neither confirm nor deny occurrences which may or may not have occurred. In short, blame my sister, since she was mostly responsible for luring me into MySpace. :^)
I can appreciate your abbreviation frustration. I sometimes feel like my teenage cousins are leaving me comments in another language! Otherwise, MySpace is a lot of fun. Hope your week is great!
