Facebook Freddy...

This is a story about a friend...


A Facebook friend that is...


This friend and I supposedly were in the same grade at the same St. Hell Mary grade school...


I am taking his word for that...


I sort of remember someone in my class with his name...


Facebook Freddy...


Ok, that's not his real name because there was no Facebook way back then...


But I'll call him that here ...


Just because I can...


I sure as hell have no good memory of what Freddy looked like back in 2nd grade...


Tho' I sort of remember being in Sr. Mary Principal's office with this kid who may have been Freddy; he was getting smacked around because apparently after his First Confession Fr.Celibate got up and walked right out of the church mumbling something about being done with this priesthood shit...


I never did find out what the kid confessed to...



Anyway...


Facebook Freddy sent me a friend request awhile back when the St. Hell Mary class of WayBackWhen started to organize a reunion...


Freddy was one of many friendships I re-established from grade school over the last few months due to this reunion thingy....


I have to admit, I was and am still a little wary of some of these so-called  friend requests...


I was not the most popular kid in school...


In fact, I was on the total opposite end of popular...


When kids in school acted like they wanted to be my friend...


Well, they usually didn't...


I was most likely being set up as the butt of some joke...


In fact, I was the butt of so many jokes growing up, that I know have a very big ...


But I digress...


Whatever kind of kid FacebookFreddy was way back when, he seems to have matured into...


Well, maybe he hasn't matured...


I really do knot know him other than on Facebook...


But he is one of my more likable friends on Facebook...


Right up there with my kids...


Who keep threatening to delete me because I "Like" them too much....


But that's a story  for another post...


Back to Freddy...


Who I do not know other than on Facebook...


That is important here...


Not that I haven't thought that I might like to get to know him other than on Facebook...


But you know that whole grade school butt joke thing still has a grip ....


So Freddy, from his FB postings anyway, did not seem to have a steady GF...


In fact, he had just posted an ad seeking a sugar momma...


Hmmm....


And Freddy makes no secret about his love for BEER....it's always beer-thirty somewhere...


And he does seem to know how to have a good time...


Apparently, too good of a time....


Suddenly, about a week or so ago, Freddy changed his FB relationship status to "engaged"...


Freddy?????


Engaged????


Well, congrats, I guess....
Oh, she's having his baby...
The rabbit died....
Gotta do the right thing....
Someone he has been seeing a while...
I can understand...


I know what it's like to have a good time and not quite remember of all the details the next day...


But it seems strange that none of his other Facebook friends seem to know this girl ...


I assume most of his other Facebook  friends actually do know him outside of Facebook ...


But I could be wrong....


I have been wrong a couple of times before in my life...


Apparently his relationship with this "someone" was suddenly being renewed with vigor...


Or a shotgun....


The date is set...


April 1st...


We're all invited...


.......


And that's when the light came on....


Now I remember Freddy....


He was an ass...


And still is....


But a likable one at that...


BTW, does anyone know what the protocol is in a situation like this...


If presents have been bought already, Freddy claims that are no take-backs...


But that gift-boxed bottle of Jose sitting on my dining room table is calling my name...
