Okay, I'm very proud of myself because I quit playing Farmville about 2 weeks ago and haven't gone back once.  Even with the temptations of a cousin offering special limited edition codes to get fancy items.  I stuck to my guns!

Okay, I know it might sound silly, but I really was addicted to that game.  I'd spend hours working on it and then I decided that maybe I could save myself some time and get better bonuses if I installed the Gamers Unit Snag Bar.  Some people think that is cheating.  It probably is.  I installed it and I tried not to be greedy.  But then I started getting hate mail from online "neighbors".  I was so mad, I mean, how self righteous do you have to be to send hate mail to someone on Facebook that you don't even really know??  Then I realized I was being way too self righteous myself, wanting to get all the good stuff no matter who I pissed off.  And because it snagged so many items I was having to go to my farm more often to prevent my gift box from becoming too full...long story short, I was spending way too much of my time on that dumb game.

So since I quit, I've been catching up on much more productive activities.  I'm reading more and I've been coming up with great ideas on my digital scrapbooks and my traditional scrapbooks -- and the brainstorms for new ideas of projects to do with the Girl Scout troop are a constant.  Love it!

What's the point of telling you all this??  Nothing really.  Just wanted to write it down somewhere.

I've always been a little off, but I find that using my creative talents helps keep me on an even keel. I spent most of highschool brooding in a corner and drawing in my sketchbook. Now, 12 years later I still need to express myself. I love to work on my computer, either on digital scrapbooking or creating posters for the monthly displays at the library where I work. I also love to work with traditional scrapbooks because they offer a chance to play with mixed media -- my favorite!! Photography has recently caught my attention, I love being able to capture a feeling created by a moment that I know I couldn't have recreated with a pencil and paper.

I found it. I clicked on a friend's page and up at the top right there is a "give" button with a gift on it. Click there, and one of the options will be "Give a Llama Badge".

In the emoticons, you can find the llama under humor, I think. The llama badge, I'll have to do some looking...give me a minute, then I'll let you know.
