FarmvilleRemember when I lost an entire weekend to Animal Crossing? I do. Welcome to my Sunday. I might as well have hay in my teeth. I set about clearing all my requests from Facebook today. There were something like 150 of them languishing in my procrastination pile. Among them were a least a few dozen Farmville requests, thus my toiling in overalls all day.

If you don’t play this game, stick your fingers in your ears and do the whole “LA LA LA LA LA LA” thing for a second.

Okay, I raked in a ton of money today which I spent, naturally developing my little home away from Animal Crossing. Because I had so many requests pending, I ended up with a fair number of neighbors, so I scared raccoons, gophers and whatnot off their farms to earn more points. Now, I’m stuck waiting for crops to harvest with not nearly enough money to build the house, barn and haunted mansion that I MUST HAVE. Bah. I’m also all about the ribbons. I’ve got the blue ribbon on the spoiled dealio just from you folks sending me goodies, so THANKS.

Also, can I mention for a moment the unabashed thrill of discovering all you closet farmers? Some of the people you would least expect had the most elaborate homesteads going. Stitches, I tell you.
