Guilt 2.0…My Mother is Friending Me on Facebook

What’s the appropriate time to get back to a friend request when that request is from your Mother?

Will it start something I can’t stop?

My sisters are up to something and it reeks of trouble.

I have been ‘Poked’ and now ‘Kvetched’. She’s creating her own apps to push me over the edge.

So I bit, and now we are ‘Friends’. All hell is breaking loose. My Uncle Henry is 85 and now got a profile. My aunt Florence was right behind her. I have become the conduit to ‘Old Jews on Facebook’

My News Feed is starting to look like an obituary roll.

Should she get out of her smock today…Is there a doctor in Toronto that can help her with her Corn on her foot..Aunt ‘Flo’ almost choked on a piece of Kishka at Pearl’s delicatessen.

The bummer of it is that Facebook just launched a cool application to run smoothly on the iPhone .

Screw it, I am heading over to Bebo.

  • my kids laid down the law a long time ago. they will not friend me on any social network and i should not even ask.
