Sometimes I go against my better judgement and give out my number rather freely, it's a curse that amuses me all too often. Facebook can be considered the greatest, creepiest thing ever invented; most normal people use it to communicate with friends, family; smarter people use it to network and promote their business; creepy guys use it to try and pick up girls. Here is one of those guys.
Facebook is cool in the sense that when someone sends you a friend request and you don't immediately recognize the name or face (sometimes cleverly concealed by a hat or reflected in a dirty mirror) you can see who your mutual friends are, here are where two thoughts come into mind: 1) I really don't know who this person is, but since we have 10 mutual friends it's possible that I have in face met this person and I will now accept your request, or 2) WOW! What a creep, NO I do NOT know you and therefore I will ignore your request, FREAK!
I teeter between those 2 options, on a good day when I am feeling nice I usually go with option 1 and that is what happened with this particular guy.
I accepted a friend request from a guy who had several random mutual friends, immediately after I accepted the request I got 3 photo comments, a wall post and private message. I thought to myself, ohh kay, a little bit creepy but I was being complimented so how could I be that upset. I entertained the message and we figured out we had never met through any of our friends, he asked for my number and I didn't see any harm in giving it to him, he had seemed decent looking in his pictures, he had a lot of tattoos, and had a lot of clever things written on his page so I guess I had become somewhat interested.
Nothing irritates me more than trying to make plans that are just convenient for one person, if you'd like to take me out, then ask, I will of course say "no" because I do not know you but at least it shows me that you'd want to set time aside and you've thought of a time and place. After several sad attempts at saying we should meet up for a drink and a few more text messages that were just sort of odd, telling me how he's had such a hard life, and blah blah blah, things started to get a little weird. He left a comment on my Facebook wall, which everyone could see, in which he had spelled my last name wrong, my last name has 5 letters, 3 of which are vowels, not to mention that my last name is ON MY FACEBOOK. I, being the mocking bitch that I love to be, called him out on his error in spelling my name and made fun of him for not being able to read. Five minutes later the comment was deleted and so was I, as his friend. The next day he tried friend requesting my sister, we both have the same last name, clearly he still hadn't learned to read.

Who is this girl and does she use big words?
I try to only use words that I can pronounce properly and spell correctly so no this will not require you to go to the dictionary and learn a new word.
I figured this being my first post, I should give a little description about myself, I've been called a lot of things in my day but usually it's Fran, Frannie or hot mess. I'm 23 and I live with my parents in Queens, I'm not bitter about that at all. I'm a Taurus but I drive a Sentra. I have a younger sister, G. I was an English major in college because I am a bookworm and I've always liked making up stories. I enjoy drinking, sometimes heavily, and I've been known to black out many, many times.
I'm pretty awkward (please note that there is not a comma in that statement) which always makes for funny situations. I have a small wolf pack, these are my rocks and my usual audience, I'm sure they'll be mentioned plenty throughout but I'll refer to them by their initials, I wouldn't want to embarrass them more than I already do.
I don't know what I want to do in life, and even though I love planning things (such as birthdays, vacations, etc) I don't have a life plan, but I like it that way, it makes people uncomfortable when I answer I don't know what I'm doing with my life.
I have a completely unsuccessful love life which keeps everyone thoroughly entertained. I haven't had a relationship in 4 years, with that being said, it was my only real relationship and it didn't even last a full year. So I am very much romantically challenged but I don't feel sad about it, I too, enjoy the misfortunes. I'm just all about laughter, causing it, participating in it, it's what keeps me sane.
