What My Next Summer Will Look Like On Facebook

Did you go on an exotic trip this summer?  If so, did you post on your vacation shots on Facebook for all your friends to see?  Did you then imagine your co-workers checking their wall during a boring meeting and having to see a shot of you laying out on the beach with a fruity drink in your hand?   Were you sure to get a shot of your tanned feet with the emerald seas behind them and the sun setting on the horizon?  Did you really capture the essence of that Bahama Mama you were drinking, umbrella and all?

And did you check in at every cool place you visited so that your green-with-envy friends could track your every move?

Well, if you didn’t, then know that I didn’t get to do any of that this summer either.  In fact, it was me on the other side of that Facebook wall forced to live vicariously through my friends’ travels as they roamed around the world without a care.  Do I begrudge them their exotic travels?  Of course not.  Am I jealous?  Just a little bit.

But not next summer, folks.  I have a plan.  For even if my lofty goals of having a massive vacation to end all vacations doesn’t pan out, I have a Plan B.  And this means my Facebook friends can expect to see this kind of stuff from me next summer.

Status:  Bon Voyage, suckers!  We’re outta here!
