my name is "morningstar" and i am an addict.
It started off simply enough..... doesn't it always?? i opened an account on facebook...... for my vanilla side ... for my family .. for sharing photos of family events.
Then i started to add a few vanilla friends.. and then work associates....
The more people i added the more "applications" i discovered.
The first one was Bejeweled...........
i started playing....... once in a blue moon........ it's sorta like (in my mind) popping the bubbles from the bubble wrap paper....... only thing is..... you only get one minute to pop..........
Then i scored a high score...... over 100,000 wow....... the adrenalin started pumping and i HAD to beat my score.... friends started playing and i had to beat their scores.......... i logged on to play before work.. after work.... whenever i could...
Then............ my friends started to invite me to something called Farmville...
i went and looked .... tried it out.... went "pfffffft" boring... and went back to my Bejeweled.... but everyone was talking about this farmville.. so i went back... and started planting crops.... adopting animals.. buying fences.. timing my crops so they wouldn't wither in the fields...
i was playing Bejeweled while i waited for my crops to ripen.............. then .. i saw an ad for something called Cafe World - build your own restaurant.
i went to take a look...... i opened a restaurant......... i bought ingredients and started cooking up a storm...........
Now i was flipping between Farm Ville crops and Cafe World recipes... and dashing over to Bejeweled in between times..
Then i discovered - to my horror - that i was playing face book games instead of writing blogs.. instead of cleaning the house.. instead of doing chores.. instead of doing laundry.............
and so here i stand........ openly admitting ........
i am addicted to "applications" on Face Book...................
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!
me too. Especially Bejeweled. And Farkle. And Farmville. When will it end??!
ReplyDeleteI was.
ReplyDeleteI have since weaned myself off of Facebook ... and all it's sparkly apps!
Be strong, you CAN break the addicition! lol
i understand completely. My sister invited me to facebook about a month ago and i started playing farmville. Daddy is currently looking for a 12 step program for me, lol. i also discovered cafe world. My friends have told me about many other applications, but Daddy has said i am only allowed 2 applications, so i guess i will stick with what i have.
