Lauren’s Beans

So last night I was considering joining Facebook.  Well….I’m still considering it.  Maybe I will join but, at the moment I’m putting it off by creating a blog instead.  Yesterday was the first time I actually looked at the Facebook website and I’m afraid I felt some of the on coming unease that always assails me when I meet someone from high school at the mall in the town my parents live in.  I feel like some how I’m supposed to have something to say to this person but, I find myself dismayed by the fact that I don’t.  That’s not true for all the people you meet that way…. sometimes it’s a revelation of all the things you want to tell this person, but it’s rare and I don’t know if I want to voluntarily experience all the other unfortunate meetings electronically via Facebook.  I don’t think I’m ready for it.  I haven’t been to a high school or college reunion yet.  I have yet to experience that particular excruciating experience.  And I think I’m going to choose to not relive that before I need to ….. I’ll see if this blog will help me communicate instead.
