Confession

My good friends Misty and Patti are farmers. They grow crops and have livestock and poultry! They will tell you that it takes a long time to gather the eggs. Here's the thing, their farms are virtual. They play Farmville and last week I was laughing at them when they had a conversation about their harvesting. I wasn't laughing behind their backs, I was making fun of them right to their face! They have tried to get me join them on Facebook, but I have resisted...so far. Both of them freely admitted to being slightly addicted.

Then, later in the day when I was looking for some apps to download to my ipod, I came across one called Tap Farm. Since it was free I put it on. Next thing I knew I had 24 patches of ground and was harvesting tomatoes, strawberries and wheat! I wanted chickens and cows. And I don't even like chickens. I don't know what happened. I can't remember where I am going, but I don't forget that it is time to harvest my crops. I was very excited this morning to reach a level that allowed me to plant grapes.

Maybe it's payback for making fun of my friends. Last night I even had a dream that I owned mules and was teaching them to plow! This dream was surely the result of all my virtual farming. So, what do you think, should I give in and join them? You can let me know what you think, but right now I have some strawberries to pick!
