Fun is what you make of it. My usual brand of fun is sitting around in my pajamas while my in-laws entertain my children. Which I don’t photograph, because no one wants to see me in my pajamas.
Next time I lounge around the house letting various relatives raise my children, I should do it while sky-diving. And I should pay some one to photograph it so I could post it on facebook for my tens of friends to see. THAT would be fun.
I am not a huge fan of facebook…too much opportunity for oversharing (and I am sort of in agreement with Debbie’s comment about bragging – comment # 8). But, it was fun to look at the photos of the activities that people have been engaging in over the past couple of weeks. But, I like looking at people’s vacation photos so maybe I am not a good judge. Anyway, I agree with Angela, fun it what you make of any situation you are in! So, maybe you are having fun and do not realize it!
Oh, I was feeling sorry for all of Bossy’s friends because of their funny faces. They all had circles, or is that the way Bossy sees people?
But you have fun – who else had those marvelous around the country tours, with more people signed up than you could get to?
Yeah but how many of these people had an awesome no-book tour? No FB for me. Technically challenged and I have enough trouble getting things done, without another distraction.
Ha! One of my friends was at the GBV concert in Philly & has almost identical photos (that was GBV right? Am not good at knowing middle aged white male bands by quick glance…)…she got to go backstage though. I remember thinking wow I don’t really like GBV all that much but geez all I’m doing is looking at her photos while my kid bounces on the couch…
I have a facebook account, but don’t ever post anything. I think I’ve forgotten the password and where it is. That is really not having anything to do that much. I think I have hacked off my sister and cousin over a video they sent me and they thought was funny and my husband and I thought it not. We have odd ways of entertaining ourselves.
Oh, I LOVED this! I wanted it to go on for a few minutes longer. So fun to see how different people are living their lives. And the song is clever and catchy. I must watch again.

Megan who you met in Austin because she came to the No Book Tour blogger meetup even though she doesn’t have a blog.
I requested your friendship on Facebook after reading this. Don’t know why I didn’t sooner. If you choose to accept it, you will see that my life is a crashing bore. You will feel like an international woman of mystery. You’re welcome.
Great, now I feel like even more of a boring schlub than I am. Thanks, Bossy. I’m going to go Photoshop myself into an awesome situation right now and then post it on FB.
Well, all I recognized was Bossy’s son, the Golden Gate Bridge, Half Dome, and Poohie, who leads a more exciting life than I do. I only joined FaceBook so I could Farm. Sigh.
That’s because you don’t see the fight that happens when the husband decides to just “follow the coast” to La Jolla instead of a map and lands you in downtown San Diego before you make the long trek back to La Jolla to take the picture.

November 8, 2010 at 2:26 pmOh, Bossy, I would like to have half as much of the fun you think you don’t have judging from your photos and little knows facts and favorite things.
