Random Thought for Thursday 1/13/11

I know I said I'd post a retelling of my dream from the weekend ... but then Facebook went and threw me a curve ball today and forced me into the new profile (dream-telling will occur next Thursday!). After taking its tour, I have to say it doesn't seem too too different, but it has caused some concern for me. One of the new features is to list your family members (or those that agree to publicly admit such a connection) -- and I just hope that it's prepared to handle my situation.

Over the years, I've been blessed to have not been limited by any legal definition of family and to have not been restricted by only considering those of blood relations to be in that category. [Here's hoping I worked those negatives right.] Zuckerberg, I don't know your "family" background (I'll get to the Social Network before the Oscars), but I hope you are ready for a boy with multiple "mothers", all kinds of "brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces", etc., etc."!

THE SPIN IS NOW I'LL HAVE MORE AMAZING CONNECTIONS:

NOT EVERYONE's HAPPY ABOUT THE CHANGES (NOR ARE THEY SUPER WORDY):
