It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Facebook is like people.com, but for us commoners. I love it and hate it. I love it because it keeps me updated on anything that is going on socially. Instead of mass text messages for bbqs, parties or get togethers, people just create events. It's kind of like a public calendar and you can decide what to attend based on the people that are already "attending". It is also a great way to share photos. We all know "I'll send you that picture" is never going to happen.

Now, I could list of a billion, trillion reasons why I hate it, but then this post will just turn into Natalie-rages-against-Facebook-and-sounds-like-a-manic-freak. And well, I would hate for that to happen. Especially in such a public forum. So, I will instead list something what I find extremely entertaining about Facebook.

The gossip.

"oh, did you see that so-and-so went from "engaged" to "single". I wonder what happened? He's probably addicted to porn"

"Did you see that so-and-so and so-and-so were in pictures together. I bet they are dating"

Well, today I posted some pictures from a recent trip I took to Lake Powell with some friends. And by friends I mean I knew 2 people out of the 10 that were there. It was a great trip and I loved every minute of it. This was the text that I received today from a very good friend after I posted my pictures:

"Which boy am I looking at in your Facebook pictures? Was there a love connection?"

And well, I'll leave the answer to that text private. Because what happens in Lake Powell, stays in Lake Powell.

Enjoy the pics
