I love the goofiness that is Facebook, so I appropriate (a much better word than ’steal,’ don’t you think?) as much of the fun stuff as I can. One of the great pleasures in my life is reading the status updates from all my Facebook friends. They are a HOOT! (Yes, I will post some of them eventually.) But what do I expect … my BFFs are mostly writers, teachers, librarians, musicians and teenagers. All funny people.
For those of you not familiar with Facebook, by lunchtime you can be BFFs with people you didn’t know at breakfast by reading their profiles, all the stuff they’ve posted, notes they’ve written, videos they’ve linked to … basically, everything that floats their boat. But also by playing games with them.
So, play the One Word Game with me! The rules are simple — type only one word answers.
Aw, who am I kidding?! You’re not going to play this entire game! So here’s the abbreviated version so we can be best friends too.

Lana … maybe you should be BFFs with Mary. Be sure to bring her shoes, though. Your hair and your life goals seem the same, even though one of you likes your kids better than the other. You seem quite compatible. Just an observation ….
