Facebook ..Changing the World

I am gonna sit here and be amazed at Facebook. How can a thing, social networking 2.0, bring together people that haven't thought about or seen each other in 20 years? It is soooo bizarre.

Don't tell me you haven't looked up someone that you crushed on or dated at one time. I know I have. Do you friend him? Do you wish he would friend you? If you friend him, will he think you are a mad stalker and its time to move on? If you friend him, will he be happy that you friended him or annoyed?

And what about this new term, "friending", "friend her", friended him"? I wonder if it will show up in the dictionary soon? Anyway, I went off on a tangent.

So if you do join a facebook group, isn't it really just a group of people who never talk to each other? I'm in this group and that group, but it really isn't a group because you never get together either online or in a coffee shop.

You know when you have a friend request, you are so excited to see who is thinking about you. Aren't you? I know I am, then I see the name and can't recall the person or I have no idea who the person is. Its soooo bizarre.

Then you decide to reconnect with an old friend who is a new facebook friend and decide to go for some coffee or lunch or something. You spend some time with them and then REMEMBER why you let that relationship go in the first place. HaHaHaHa...

In Atlanta

I'm in Atlanta for the AADE Annual Conference. This conference is ginormous. There is supposed to be 4000 people here. Crazy, its a testament to the diabetes epidemic that is circling the world. Especially in the United States. So, now there are Certified Diabetes Educators popping up everywhere as the demand for education is soooo high. Supply and Demand. Supply and Demand.

Did you know that for every pound of fat you gain your body forms 200 miles of capillaries to support the extra blood flow?
