Facebook - Decreasing Stranger Danger One Friend at a Time

I'm going to write in real Blog style today.

Ah! K, So the weirdest slash coolest thing happen to me today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was like going for a jog Saturday morning and was just about to the doors of Guru’s on Center street just here in P-Town.

And this guy walks out and there was a slight run-in but nothing catastrophic. I made eye contact with the stranger so I could do one of those ‘excuse me’ nods but not have to say it out loud cuz I’m already out of breath . And then we both seem to do a double take. Not because of love at first sight attraction, I mean I'm jogging here, but because I somehow KNEW the stranger but didn’t. And he was having those same thoughts too! Don’t ask me how I knew, I just have good girlie vibes sometimes…. SOMEtimes. So of course all of this has happened within seconds and I have resumed jogging with my back toward him and I felt like he was still bothered by how we knew each other. (the vibes again)

Jogging up and down I was thinking thinking thinking…..'huff huff' out of breath …

‘Ah! how embarrassing!’

I caught on to how we recognized each other.

‘Should I tell him in case he didn’t know???’

I twisted my torso around and saw he was still watching me run away while trying to figure it out too.

So I yelled back,

“Facebook! “

He yelled back,

“Yes! THANK you!”

“We’re Soooo Creepy!”

And to think soemone the other day was saying how careful we all need to be on facebook. But really, the creepiness of it all had just made my jogging experience safer - in a way. You know. Cuz I wouldn't have had to yell, 'Stranger Danger!!'
With the amazing networking of facebook, And if he HAD attacked me. I could have said,

"I will tell your mother on facebook buddy. So just back off."


I think I'll wear this jogging next time.
And no, its not about getting over a thousand friends. It's about being safe out there! Gosh add people - peoplllle!
