"If addiction is judged by how long a dumb animal will sit pressing a lever to get a "fix" of something, to its own detriment, then I would conclude that [facebook] is far more addictive than cocaine" - Rob Stampfli

Not surprised? Really? It's true. I get sucked in w/ something simple like a text stating it is a friend's birthday. I jump in to send a quick message w/ warm wishes for their day and then feel the need, drive, twitch, compulsion, urge, to check my farms and fish, and oh is it time to work in YoVille? I'm ahead of my friends on Fishville, and want to keep it that way. Because, you know, it matters in life. L
I'm actually much more addicted to Farmtown and Fishville than any of the others. Something about designing the tanks makes me all warm and fuzzy feeling. Sad? Yes I know *hanging my head in shame ((just for show))*
If you are strong enough to resist, by all means do, but if not, there is a Facebook link on the sidebar, friend me and we'll be lifelong neighbors in the land of Oz.That sounded much cooler in my head. L
- Farmtown, level 60 ((intense addiction))
- Farmville, level 33 ((moderate addiction))
- Fishville, level 49 ((strong addiction))
- Yoville, level 38 ((comes and goes))
- Happy Aquarium, level 25 ((I forget about it and my fish die))
- Petville, level 12 ((my pet Floopsy has run off a few times from not being fed))

I don't really care for facebook, actually.
Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!
Yes, I'm a FB addict, too. It started off so innocent, too--doesn't it always.
It's those games, I tell ya!
My faves are Castle Age, and PetVille. [^ﺏ^]
Farm Town, don't like (removed that application, if you haven't noticed), FarmVille is tolerable--gettin' kinda bored of it. Losing interest in Happy Aquarium, but I keep goin' to it.
I've completely neglected YoVille, it slows down my computer for some reason. And there's others that I visit once in a while.
I know what ya mean 'bout stayin' a level ahead all the time--things get kinda competitive, that's the rush. *lol*
