Oh, Facebook...

I have feelings about Facebook.

Mixed Feelings.

Okay I lied- I love Facebook, but I really have a problem with what people put on Facebook.

I've already heard the lecture "It's my Facebook and I can do whatever I want to it and if you don't like me then just de-friend me." Harsh, eh? Don't worry I won't de-friend you, I'll just look at your profile when it comes up and shake my head solemnly.

Let me just say: You probably, might, really should act the same way on Facebook that you would in real life. Meaning:

- if you aren't trashy in real life-- please don't put trashy pictures up! Boys will not marry you for what your Facebook picture looks like, they eventually have to meet you face to face.
- if you don't want your mom, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, neighbors, future kids, and/or creepers from around the corner seeing something- don't post it. It lives forever online.
- language that you wouldn't share with the above mentioned group of people, probably isn't appreciated. that's all.
- whether you know it or not, people look up to and respect you- don't ruin it by a momentary (or longer) lapse in judgement when posting a status, post, or picture.

the end.

i feel better now.

...we thought we were done?

A little background:

Last March, for our wedding we opened one of our presents and it was a Toys R Us Telescope.

Um... okay.

It's a cool gift, but what do we do with it? It wasn't strong enough to look at anything really cool, or even cool enough looking to keep out for decoration...so we decided to save it for my 9-year-old brother for Christmas. It would be an awesome gift for a 9-year-old and we would be the best sister and brother-in-law EVER.

Fast Forward 9 months:

Last night in the middle of the night I woke up and thought: Some people put gifts in random boxes- we should probably make sure what it shows on the box is actually what's inside.

Even though the box had already been wrapped and put under the tree, I carefully opened the box to make sure the wrapping paper could be re-taped shut.

I opened the box and lo and behold, was a cake pan and some cooling racks.

Awesome.

Can you imagine the scene if we wouldn't have checked?

"Gee... thanks Mickelle and Rick. I'll use it in 15 years when I'm old and married."

"No problem buddy... no problem..."

We wanted this reaction:

But would probably get this one:

Oh well... it's off to brave the stores now.

Think they still have Telescopes?
