One of my personal secrets to happiness is setting really low standards in life that even a dullard like me can achieve. I am happy to say that I have surpassed my 11-year-old niece in Farmville. Since I have still not managed to have an exciting and fulfilling career or even a steady-but-unsatisfying job to pay the bills, I have to take my joy where I can find it. My niece had to start back to school this week. While she is away from her computer learning things in the 6th grade, I get to stay home and goof off on the internet between scouring the job boards.
FarmVille is not the only game on Facebook that lures people in and makes addicts of them, but it's the only one I play. I notice other people playing games created by the same company, Zynga. Games like Mafia Wars, World Café, Vampire Wars, and PetVille, just to name a few. But I don't partake in those games. The way I see it, FarmVille is like digital crack, and once one is hooked on crack, there is no need to get hooked on heroin as well. It will only add to your misery.
