How is your Tuesday going? Are you feeling okay? Do you have anything to brag or complain about?
Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships?

Re: Tuesday check in
Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships? no online friends, I used to bump more while TTC but somehow it has all gone to the wayside. Other than that I just go on FB which are are real friends/acquaintances/co-workers/family.
Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships? No real online friends. I'm pretty introverted and stick with family and a small group of friends mostly.
Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships? I actually found DH online. Back when Facebook was strictly college students and all you had was the college social network. Other than that I tend to be pretty private online as far as identity because I've had some nutty nutty people harass me online. There's some crazy ass people out there!
I am still sort of close with a small group of ladies who were on my anniversary board on the knot/nest, but we've moved to facebook and I find it more difficult to keep up on there for some reason.
Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships? I don't think I have friends that I've met from online. Other than the bump, I usually only communicate with people I know in real life.

Do you have many friends that you've made online? Do you tend to go on to become friends with them in real life or just maintain virtual friendships? Not really. Most of my on line friends started out as in person friends and then moved on line due to location changes or job changes. Only exception is DH - we met on line and that one obviously moved into real life.

I have some friends I've made in FB groups (usually health and fitness groups), but I try to keep them confined to those groups. I find that we often don't share many other interests and more than once I've been deeply offended by some of the things (like political cartoons) that they post on their personal pages. No fun.
I woke up stressed today. I woke up at 5am or so on my back and then turned and felt an ache in my stomach and because I'm still not feeling the baby kick much, I'm tense. I called my doctor and the nurse said I shouldn't be worried, but that if I wanted to I could come in for a doppler. Work too busy to go in today but think if I don't feel any kicks later, going to go in tomorrow morning.
No real complaints today - just wish I had more time for exercise. I get a run or something cardio in each day but can't also find time for strength training and my thighs and arms are getting flabby as a result.

I don't have any real online friends. I'm not one for social meda that much and this is the most active I've ever been on a message board, etc.... I'm not adverse to making friends online, I just don't find time to do much with message boards, online communities, etc.... really I spend more time on here than I probably should in a work day, and sooner or later work may notice.

It's ok, just moving way too slow. Is it Friday yet? I feel great, I'm currently enjoying my caffeinated beverage
. Nothing to really complain about except wanting to go home and curl up on the couch.

I made one friend online when he randomly messaged me on myspace after he had just moved to my town. We eventually met up once, but since then we've kept the communication limited to g-chat. I met DH online, so I suppose he counts too
. I also play World of Warcraft, and a few years ago I got very friendly with some of the guild members. We met up once, but now we only keep in touch via facebook occasionally.
