Birthdays, Ankles and Facebook

I must confess that I have a new appreciation of Facebook. A few weeks ago I hurt my ankle and ended up in the ER, which was packed. So while I was waiting, I took a picture of my ID bracelet they make you wear and posted it to FB with a caption that read "Guess where I am?". Within minutes, I received many responses and well wishes. It felt nice to receive all those notes.

And the same thing happened today, on my birthday. By 6:45 a.m. I had already received four birthday wishes and they continued to appear throughout the day. It gave me a nice feeling and put a smile on my face. Thanks to all my "friends" - the ones on and off of Facebook for your nice messages!
