Facebook

I was the kind of kid who, when camp ended, cried to say goodbye to everyone (even though I wasn't friends with that many kids), vowed to keep in touch, and even DID for some time, writing letters and hoping to be friends for life.

As I grew older and lost touch with many of them, I learned that that was a natural progression in the world, that you cannot and need not stay in touch with everyone.

So I find it strange now to receive invitation after invitation to become a "friend" to people on Facebook that I never even SPOKE to in high school.

In the words of Spock, "intriguing."
