facebook fun.

Don't you just love those people on Facebook who divulge way too much information about their lives?!
I actually really appreciate them. They are the source of a lot of genuine laughter in my life.
People are absolute train wrecks and have no limit to what they'll share with the click of a button.
And it's hilarious what you'll read...
and a few days later you go to laugh at them again...and the post is mysteriously deleted. 
Umm newsflash...you can't delete things from people's minds. Think before you type.
On secondhand...don't. I genuinely appreciate the entertainment.
In fact, at our last girls night...we discussed some of our favorites. 

On another note...why are there such creepster in the world!!?
I received this message today...

"Hello there Ashley. I recently sent you a friend request and I know we have not formally met. I noticed we had several common friends and wanted to reach out to you simply for the fact that you never know how someone might be able to help another out down the road (Can't hurt, might help). I hope you will accept my friend request but if not I understand. If for some reason my request has been erased please send a friend request my way. Thanks."

First of all this guy is 37 years old. And we have ONE mutual friend. I repeat...one. And I really don't even remember getting his request. meaning it had to have been months ago. And the fact that he cares enough to message me... Oh and he's married. With children. CREEPER. 

Last but not least...I have these two Cambodians that keep messaging me who I met on my recent trip. Actually I'm pretty sure I only met one of them. not quite sure who the other guy is. But apparently he loves me so it's cool. I actually look forward to their messages. They hardly make sense and are so cute. They love me and miss me so much and really wish I would come back to Cambodia. They also think that "are" is spelled "a" so they always start with "How a you?" It makes me smile every time.

And then several months ago...I posted this picture from my dear, but big breasted friend's birthday dinner...and this was his comment....
Sarith Toy when will u come back to Cambodia again? we all miss u!!!

You miss me so much huh? Did you really think one of these girl's was me!?!? 
It still makes me laugh.

Then the other night me and my traveling buddy lindsey decided that we should send all our Cambodian friends a Christmas card of us. They would probably just love it. And we would love doing it. So I decided to message Toy for his mailing address.  Then me and Linds decided to be rude and question if they even have a mailing address. Then we got mad at ourselves and decided that of course they do. 

And then I got his reply...
