			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What should I do?</p>
<p>Apart all the work accumulating in my inbox and the numerous ideas that I have in my head but no time to do any of them.</p>
<p>I started to take notice of this <a title="Facebook, what facebook?" href="http://www.facebook.com/" target="_blank">facebook</a> thingy, I mean I heard of it in the past but always refused to try it. Just the though of registering to see what it is gives me goose bumps.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/facebook.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-367" title="facebook" src="http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/facebook-300x112.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="112" /></a></p>
<p>My wife registered but I don&#8217;t know how it go, plus many friends of mine that I didn&#8217;t see or hear in +10 years are sending me e-mails and invitations to the site.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not planing to minimize the importance or the power of the site/tool, I just simply don&#8217;t have any clue or confidence in it.</p>
<p>I feel torn between being left out and getting back in touch <img src='http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif' alt=':-?' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/torn_paper.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img class="size-medium wp-image-368 aligncenter" title="torn_paper" src="http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/torn_paper.jpg" alt="" width="264" height="270" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Can anyone help?</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve always been a lousy person when it comes to keeping contacts with friends and relatives, in fact this blog was a way to bridge that gap.</p>
<p>Unfortunately it failed.</p>
<p>I always get my self entangled with the things that I have between my hands, I can&#8217;t seem to find a balance between the things I do;</p>
<ul>
<li>If I like to eat something I&#8217;ll eat it till I get nausea.</li>
<li>At work I forget everything not related to the job I&#8217;m doing.</li>
<li>..etc..</li>
</ul>
<p>My manager raised the point more than once, I noticed it but always said to myself &#8220;I&#8217;ll cross the <em>bridge </em>when I get to it&#8221; (ironic isn&#8217;t it <img src='http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif' alt=':?' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>

<p>Don&#8217;t worry I&#8217;m not planing to stop blogging (the thought passed my mind a few times) this post is more of a  complaint to myself (who knows I might learn my lesson).</p>
<p>The title of the post is in regards of the wedding preparations, I&#8217;ll be sending the invitations soon, so I&#8217;m starting to gather all the names and e-mails. I&#8217;m currently stuck with my friends in KSA, I can&#8217;t seem to get in touch with them by phone or e-mails.</p>
<p>I really hope to get a lead soon insha&#8217; Allah <img src='http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>P.s. On the side bar you&#8217;ll find a new widget titled &#8220;Twitter Updates&#8221; below the weather and counter. I really hope to be more consistent with the updates <img src='http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>The direct link to my page in twitter is <a href="https://twitter.com/jirukun" title="jirukun's twitter site" target="_blank">here</a>, I still need to discover it&#8217;s possibilities and potentials <img src='http://www.blabbercamel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /></p>
