Facebook Friends

In addition to my guildies, I've managed to add a few of my Zuluhed flirting buddies to my Facebook friends list. Only a few, mind you, and they're pretty much buried between the photography friends and the total-strangers-who-play-mobwars friends, but they're in there.

It's interesting how Warcraft and social networking has allowed me to make "friends" with people I've never met or talked to...just exchanged forum messages with. The really mind-blowing (for us old farts) part is that in many cases these virtual friends not only spend more time with me, they know more about me than some relatives or real world friends.

But some things remain the same -- the effort to be seen as having a good life (i.e. no blemishes) and the desire to be admired I carry with me whether I'm flirting on a game forum or meeting friends for dinner. I have to admire my own lies.
