I went skinny dipping for the first time in my life tonight. Single life is not so bad.
Main reason I have never owned a pickup truck.
Give us the real confession: Which female board member would you approach first.

I'll pay $20 to sniff them after you have worn them.
I click on and watch all the Yahoo cute cat videos.

I hate people who don't return a "good morning" when walking down the street.
Whiskey Sour
2 oz blended whiskey
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1 cherry
1/2 slice lemon
Shake blended whiskey, juice of lemon, and powdered sugar with ice and strain into a whiskey sour glass. Decorate with the half-slice of lemon, top with the cherry, and serve.
Didn't go to work today. Eating chicken wings and watching Maury in my pajamas.

Just found out that one of my best friends got engaged. Too bad I found out over Facebook instead of from her. I mean, I'm happy for her and everything, but it I confess it kind of sucks finding out through social media instead of in person, especially with such a huge life decision like getting married.
EDIT: She just texted me. Turns out her FB was hacked. She isn't really engaged.
do you have other issues with this person?
the reason i ask is i recently found out the exact same thing of a best friend and wasn't bothered at all by finding out on facebook. i texted her and we started talking about the whole thing in a happy manner.
This is one of my big problems with facebook, it's now cut out the need to have actual conversations. I have had people get mad at me for not responding to their major news announcements on facebook. If they are that major they can call/text me to let me know. If I somehow miss it in their news feed because I don't live on facebook then oh well.
My nose and face are so sunburned and swollen that I have been told I look like I got collogen injections.
ah, weird then. that makes more sense as to why you were stunned. in my case, the couple have lived together awhile and have contemplated marriage so it wasn't a huge shocker or anything. if not, i prolly would have felt weird about it like you did.
i actually like facebook for big announcements. i won't get mad if people miss them, but it sure is nice to say "HI EVERYONE, I'M BROKEN UP AND SINGLE AGAIN" in one swoop rather than having to have that awkward conversation with everyone i see. it's also nice for some of my health woes. my friends far away can still keep tabs on what's happening, even though we can't talk daily. but it's silly to get mad at people for not reading facebook.
When I got engaged many of my friends and some extended family found out through Facebook. I know at least one of my best friends found out through Facebook which I can assure you was not out of anything near malice; just a simple oversight. I can say for certain that at no time did I think "I don't want to tell _______ myself because they are not important enough to me."
There's a lot of people to tell. We had to call/Skype parents, siblings, grandparents, etc. None of these people live close. I don't particularly like talking on the phone and for most of my friends having me call them is rare and therefore a little weird (or at least it feels weird for me). Time zones also complicate things and it feels weird to say "don't talk to anyone about this yet; we'll announce it soon" over and over and eventually we gave in and posted on Facebook (and emailed Facebook holdouts).
I can understand all of that. Telling like 200 people in person about getting engaged sounds like a pain in the ass, so that is where FB would come in handy. I was only shocked at the thought of finding out through FB because my friend is like a sister to me, and she tells me almost everything about her relationships as soon as they happen. Of course, she doesn't tell me EVERYTHING but she does keep me informed on major stuff that happens.
