The phone call makes sense as more effective communication, the email not so much. I think what he's saying is that he means to make more contact but struggles to actually do it. I am much the same. Checking in with facebook now and again he'll see photos and be able to read a little about what's going on that week. That will no doubt lead to feeling a little closer to family. My parents have a "myfamily.com" page that has led to us all being in contact far more frequently than we used to be. Facebook is every bit as good and it's free.

Log off of this chatboard now and please do not return until you have your life and priorities in order.
At least his priorities include trying to get in touch with his family. Facebook is better than nothing. It's better than spending time talking to strangers on a message board all day. Talk about priorities.

Maybe SteelBlue is just doing his religious duty.

Here she likes another person standoffish to my group of peple I saw. Then again maybe there saying that so I won't chase her and they will.
Another reason why I disabled all of my online social networking accounts.

Stalker net?

If that isn't funny, I don't know what funny is. LOL!

I decided to check it out after reading this post and this girl I went to highschool with is a musician her name is Savvy Savalicious. Also a girl I kind of liked in Highschool hit me up within 5 minutes of signing up on the site.

Anyways I doubt I will get on much but it looks like you can make some good contacts.

I'd mock you, but I'm 40 and I just started one.
