Almost, but didn't

I almost signed up for face book.
Loneliness is creeping in to my heart like a sneaky, dark intruder.  It has no face.  It has no place.  But yet it waits patiently for me to let my guard down.
My husband is away on a call, the kids are in bed.  I have surfed the web, flipped channels and now am wondering what to do.  I would love to have someone to talk to, to laugh with, to stand in the kitchen with me while I do dishes..but I am alone. 
So, I sat at the little flashing screen thinking there has got to be someone else out there who is lonely too, right?
Oh, but to open that door...
I know it would not be good for me, I push the urge away.  Just another time waster waiting to happen, gossip and drama waiting in the wings, a possible inappropriate relationship hanging within reach...this is how I feel about Face book.
And, I almost signed up anyway.
