Well missed the ladies opener. I'll catch the men tomorrow. Went to nieces musical tonight both did really well. It is fun watching them perform, I wish I had 10% of their talent.
 
Figured I'd only make it to one game this year, so I just stubhubbed myself a ticket for the ISU/Oklahoma game in January. They really nail you on the fees with stubhub, jeesh.
 
If I have to see one more of these ******* things on Facebook I'm going to scissor kick that person.


Well, it's official! We have some AMAZING, but shocking news! WE'RE EXPECTING!!! woot woot! A little over 7 weeks and counting. I know we're shocked too!! We can hardly believe it ourselves!! We weren't going to post it, but since you're all family & friends, we wanted to make it official. We're too overwhelmed to keep it a secret!!! Who would of guessed that of all people WE would be expecting?! But we are!! We're expecting Santa Claus in just 7 weeks! Copy and paste if you have a sense of humor. Let's see how many people read the whole status! Hohoho ☃

They should be scissor kicked for saying woot woot. The rest deserves a throat punch.

I think I'm glad we have different friends...I haven't seen that yet. Hope I don't! I have seen enough shelf elfs to last five lifetimes over the last two Christmas seasons.
 
WDSM, I've seen that from one of the same people who does the wraps thing. I feel like they are on two strikes now.
 
This kind of thing being posted over and over is the reason I don't follow Facebook very closely anymore.

... and the incessant ads are the two reasons I don't follow Facebook.

... and the vague insinuations of drama are the three reasons I don't follow Facebook.

... and the inside jokes that would be better handled as a PM, email, text or in a private group are the four reasons I don't follow Facebook.

At least it seems that people quit taking pictures of every meal for the most part (Oh look, here's my kids' mac and cheese WITH hot dogs! #nomnomnomnom).

Sorry for the rant. I actually just got kind of bored with it.

I follow news feeds, ISU sports feeds, and my kids/grandkids. That makes me happy.

I also have a couple of friends who seek out cool music, memes and jokes, and I enjoy a good nerdargument with my kids & their friends from time to time. :)

I try to ignore the other crap.

The youngest daughter and her best friend/neighbor have already started planning for Elf Day! That would be the day after Thanskgiving. Man, it gets hard to come up with almost 30 things to do with the Elf on the Shelf every year. I'm pretty much down to sitting him on the bathroom counter with lines of white powder and putting him in bed with a naked Barbie with empty airline liquor bottles strewn about.
 
speaking of FB - DH's cousin who I often rant about for making so very many poor life choices made a comment last night about "some people just shouldn't reproduce". Now they purposefully got pregnant (posted on FB about how they were 'trying') when they had no money, no insurance, no real job - like I get that accidents happen and timing isn't always perfect, but this was one of those things where everyone in the family who had 4+ brain cells was like WTF are you doing?! So I very loudly guffawed at this person saying how other people shouldn't have kids.


anyway, I read that comment to DH and he goes "you should 'like' it."

you should do this.

Crushed up chalk works well for the white powder, or so I learned in elementary school.

Ya I personally don't post on FB any more hardly at all. May comment on a post or some thing here or there. Just use it to browse and see what friends are up to.

Twitter is where it's at anyway. It's fun to look back on facebooks this day in history.

Nine years ago today was when we beat our arch rival in football to get to the dome. Some interesting posts.

That is the way to handle it. I just always get too distracted by the other stuff.

I'm kind of crabby this morning. I just may not have gotten enough sleep last night. Either that or it's the fact that I'm going to a Huskers' game this weekend.

This made me laugh out loud.

That would drive me up a wall. It irks me when people are all "do as I say, not as I do".
 
All that talk of avatars got me thinking.... I think if I were to ever change mine it would have to be a cardinal and gold version of the Alkaline Trio skull heart.
