Wet Saturday




What do you do on a rainy Saturday? Well, dye Easter eggs of course. Then when it stops raining you get dressed up in your best Easter dress and pose for pictures. Well, that's how Peaches spent her weekend.

USC vs. LSU Game

I had free tickets to the game last night so we all went. We had a blast. The new stadium is really nice and the seats are pretty comfortable. Gamecocks won 7-3. Peaches feel asleep during the 7th inning & slept the rest of the game.

Facebook

So I wanted to see what all the hype was about so I logged onto Facebook. Actually, I was invited by a friend to join Facebook. I accepted her invitation and once I did I started getting invitations from family and friends. I think I got 8 invitations in one day. I had 14 messages in one afternoon. I do think it is pretty cool and now I understand why people spend HOURS on it, it can be addictive. My problem is that I don't have enough time to keep up with it. I am lucky if I check my e-mail once a day. In the last couple of weeks that I have been checking Facebook out, I have met up with some people that I haven't seen in years. I'm not sure what a Mofia Family is, or being kidnapped or 8 balled............. it is all a bit overwhelming! What happened to just calling someone or sending a letter? I guess those days are over. Hey, I wonder if I can do my VT through Facebook!!!!
