The Evils of Facebook

Facebook really is evil. Trust me, I know.

It steals time from family. It robs one of all rational thought. It causes one to become oblivious to their surroundings. It's evil, take it from me.

I signed up for Facebook months and months ago. The only reason I did, was because my sister-in-law talked me into it. "It's so much fun!" she assured me, and it was.....for a few days. Then, I started acquiring friends. And those friends started sending me stuff. A hug here, and a smile there. It was cute. Then I started getting more stuff.....things I didn't have any idea what to do with. I couldn't keep up with it all, and it was time consuming. So, I stopped visiting Facebook.

Until last week.......

I saw my kids on Facebook playing some cafe game, and a farm game. It looked fun, so I went on to have a look. Before I knew it, I was playing these games and then some! Cafe World, Farmville, Fishville, anything you want to play-ville. It was freakin' fun!

Now, every waking moment is spent on Facebook. Laundry isn't getting done, the kids are mad because Mike is making them clean the house because, "Your mom is busy", and any plans have to be made around when food needs to be served or crops harvested. It's insane, I tell you!

I even had Becky serve some food for me that was ready while I was out this past Saturday night! I'm obsessed! My aunt and I spent an hour on the phone this afternoon discussing ways to set up her restaurant for maximum customer satisfaction. Can it get any crazier than that?

Don't answer that just yet.

How about laying awake at night thinking about how you can make your cafe more profitable?

It's all true, I swear.

Anyway, Facebook is evil, but I can't stop myself.

Speaking of which, I need to go now, I hear that one of my dishes is ready to be served (Cafe World is open in another tab, with the sound on!)
