late nights rock

The original title of this blog was supposed to be 'seduction or laughter' but an unexpected occurrence has caused me to change that. So I was inspired with the former title due to an amazingly lame facebook ad I just saw. It had a picture of a girl and it said: "It all started with a click." It was for some dating profile site, and I had to laugh. How desperate, lonely, and hormone driven do they assume college kids are? I say college kids because the majority of facebook users fall into this age bracket. 

There have been a few other facebook dating ads I've noticed, but I don't deem them worthy of review, so let's just say they're more pathetic than the one I just described. It is hard to believe that some people fall into the trap of being enticed into romance. It seems so cheapened and out of focus. What 'started with a click?' Have we forgotten than relationships are hard work, a process, and more than a bedroom? It's out of faithfulness, honesty, and patience that true joy makes itself real in any relationship, and even then this joy could never be justly represented through some slightly-scandalous facebook advertisement. So, sorry facebook, if you want to reel me in, you're going to have to try harder than that.

Ok, so on to the best part of this post, and the reason why I changed the title of the blog. Realize that I typed all of this out, then went to publish it, only to realize my friend had signed in to his blog on my computer. So I almost posted all of this on his site. How amazing and sweet would that have been for him to read this on his own blog, with no idea how it got there.
Late nights definately do rock.
