Reasons:
1) I keep running into folks I want to stay in touch with who, for some reason I can't discern, don't have livejournals.
2) It's WAY prettier than MySpace.
3) I can't get this song out of my head.
HOWEVER!!! It is part self-loathing and part social experiment that I caved and did this. My facebook, and this post, shall remain a SECRET until people realize I have it. At which point it will go all public like a whirlwind tornado, and folks, they will say, "HEY I THOUGHT YOU WERE NEVER GETTING A FACEBOOK" and I will say, "IT TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH TO NOTICE, GEEZ."
I'll be bitter and angsty about it, like people not noticing a new haircut.
I have friended no one. I have added no userpics. I have updated my profile only to include my high school and birthday. LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Maybe I will give a little prize to the first person to discover my Facebook!
Unless it was someone from high school I hated.
No prize for them.
