Facebook Freak

Hi I’m Anita, and I’m a facebook freak.  (This is where you say, “Hi Anita”…..at least I’ve heard that’s how it’s done.)  Anyway….if you visited me over there you might have noticed these days I’m often at my 5,000 friend limit.  (FINALLY!!)  I’d like to say “I’m NOT proud of it, it just HAPPENED,” but, I’m PROUD of it.  I LOVE that I have 5,000 friends or at least NAMES that when it comes down to parting with some of them, well….I just can’t do it.  I mean a lot of these people are former KSN fans, twitter friends, and while some of us have never met or even really corresponded, we’ve seen each others names now for a year or two, so it feels like I know even THOSE people.  The word “Friend” sort of needs a new definition.

So, I have a waiting list of people who want to be  ”friends”  and some of them I really already KNOW.  They are my friends…..I just don’t have room for them on facebook.  Here’s where it gets tricky.  Because of the dumb rule that one can only have 5,000 friends, I am having to drop people so I can add new ones.  One strategy that works well is to talk about me.  Two dudes got really pissed when I did that the other day and they dropped me, the comment was….”Man all you ever write about is YOU.”   (My response….”SEE YA” )  I got to add two more people who actually wanted to read what I had to say about myself, and not to be vain, but isn’t that what a personal facebook page is about??  The person I mean.  Trust me, whenever I look at YOUR facebook page, I expect to read about YOU!!

So anway, back to the list.  I’m trying like hell-o to get a couple of my OLLLLLDDDD friends on and I let people drop me, then add a few new ones every day, but it’s not happening fast enough.  Enter the Anita Cochran/ Public Figure facebook page.  I made up this new page where ANYONE can “Like” it and thus be a “Liker”, I guess that’s almost as good as  a friend.  This though allows all LIKERS to join in which I’m all for.  Now all I have to do is figure out how to make both pages ALL ABOUT ME, and man I won’t have any friends, any likers, and I’ll have a heck of a lot more free time.   Then again if I could figure out how to hack into my own Facebook Public Figure page I could change Like to Lick.  I just want to see if anyone would admit they want to LICK me   See I am a FREAK.
