Latest Obsession...
Latest Obsession... ***Oh sigh***... it is an OBSESSION because NOTHING can only be 1/2 WAY WITH ME....
I run home from work... only to jump on the computer... (yesterday I went into my office, BEFORE I said hello to my family....I KNOW,... how BAD is that ?...)
It isn't my blog.... (that was last months obsession/ADDICTION) it is
FACEBOOK AKA ... FB(for those of us on the "in" )
I admit it...I am ADDICTED...
I should also admit, I am also being a little bit "whoreish" with my new addiction.... I added 30 friends yesterday.... I know it is wrong...but it just felt SO...RIGHT.
"Do you want to add so-so to your friend list?"
ME: "Sure...why not?" Maybe THEY have someone on their list that I might want to be friends with??....
I connected with people from my graduating class.... my neighbor who I used to play Flashlight tag with.... a long lost cousin in Germany...(same last name...) friends from our Cruise Ship days... my teenage nieces..... I AM ADDICTED!
Are you on FB? If not.... WHY? It is 5,000 x's better than MY SPACE... & safer (I think... is myspace "un safe"?)
Weirdos can not look at your profile unless you have added them as a friend... Boo Haa haa waa..
So now that I have made contact with all of my friends from HS....I have decided that I want to go home for my 20 year Class reunion.... I should right? JUST DO IT.... I have yet to make it home to a single reunion, I was either out at sea somewhere or birthing babies during the last reunions.... so this time (seeing as I am not planning on having anymore children) I should just go....
Which opens up a couple cans of worms.... ONE...telling Bjørn I want to go back to the states next summer.... (sans family....)
TWO losing umm, about 30 lbs....HELLO "Operation Skinny Bitch".... (swear I am going to get added to that group, tomorrow...)
Speaking of Skinny Bio-tches.... came across something VERY exciting today....
Blueberry PIE.. (at what is supposed to be our SAMS club....) OK, granted, for the rest of the world NOT living in Norway...it might not be so exciting... But for me... & some other expats here....PRETTY EXCITING... People don't eat pie here.... not sure they do anywhere in Europe.
DID I buy it? NO... because I determination to drop 30 lbs & go to my reunion?
... Mmmm ya... NOT... because it cost $37 & we are not talking like a HUNGRY MAN, feed the football team kind of Pie... we are talking about a "Tressa atethewholething, watching Oprah"... sized Pie. Sad but true... guess I better learn how to make Pie Crust....
I know I sound like I am on crack....talking about everything all at once... but I must put the laptop away before the family gets home...& pretend to be a normal mommy/wife....
Final thing.... this is post 99.... Can you believe it? (& they said it wouldn't last....)
Any ideas what I should do for the big 100
(it should be kindda special shouldn't it?)...
Waiting for your suggestions....

I did get back in touch with a few random people it was nice to hear from though. I give Facebook kudos for that. And you're right, it is safer than My Space.
Now blueberry pie??!! That's something I can join you in. I'll get the forks.
Suggestions for you 100th post .., an online party? :-)

Besides it's more about you discovering just how musically cool I was (;) than the trip to Ireland w/ Trish...and it just seemed appropriate
How did you get the 'top commenter" thingie on your sidebar? i want one and cant figure it out. HELP!!!
And I'm totally with you on the whole run to the computer without sparing the time to say hello to anyone! lol Sad, isn't it?
As far as FB... I also love it. I was able to reconnect with some other high school friends--from the year I attended in Ecuador. That was awesome!
How long have you been in Norway? My husband lived in Denmark for two years and can speak and understand Norweigen
Go to your 20th. It's the funnest. People have grown up and are themselves. Not so much of the ego thing.
I wish my friends would stop MyFacing me!! lol Cause I hate it plus I haven't found one person I have been looking for.
And getting to your 100th post...that is like when the school kids get to the 100th day of school... super BIG DEAL!! :o)
And I have friends that want me to join FB (I'm pretending to be "in") and I just might now. ;)
I've had a facebook page for about a year and I just cant get into it. I don't think I'm cool enough for it. All the people I hadn't talked to from High school and college I stumbled upon on myspace like 5 years ago. So the excitement of that is pretty much over, haha.
We are celebrating our first anniversary of blogging and wanted to thank you for being a special part of the last year!
blessings,
kari & kijsa
I have had a blast catching up with old college friends. It's so fun! I have friends that are like "facebook? why are you doing that??" They just don't get it. *sigh*
