Drive-by am not kidnapped by aliens post

Brammers: Oh god, apparently five of my friends have invited me to be on Facebook.

Brammers' young friend: OMIGOD! I can't believe you're not on Facebook! You should totally be there!

B: I'm old, dear, the first number in my age is a four.

BYF: You're NOT old. And besides, my mum is in her forties and she's on Facebook.

B: I'm old and I have no children I need to stalk on Facebook. Also, I'll just be over there having a little cry for the next few minutes ...



Back to the work, editing and writing. Slowly catching up!

I have multiple 4's, honey. And I refuse to do the facebook thingy, or the myspace thingy, or that twit thingy. My cousin keeps sending me facebook invites - I shun him madly.

It's nothing to do with being old, and everything to do with choosing not to follow a fad for the sake of it. I'm not sure what it is about those forums that I object to (actually, there's a lot of things I do know I object to, but won't go into here), but I do object to them.

Maybe it is about being old after all?

It's about needing more time for the things we already have on! *Holds out in the Mere camp*
