Yesterday afternoon, my laptop decided that Facebook was not a site I should be able to access. I kept getting a message, when I tried to go there, that the site couldn't be verified because it didn't have a valid security certificate. Scott was having no problems getting in, so I assumed a problem with my browser and cleared the cache and the cookies and restarted it. No joy. I tried with Chrome and got the same error. I couldn't get at any page in the domain, not a one.

I restarted my laptop entirely, and that seems to have done it, but... I have no idea what happened there.

I just want to be able to see pictures of my friends' kids and pets and gardens and...

There are two reactions/emojis that I really want on Facebook. One is an option for ::hugs:: when nothing else is quite right as a response to a post. The other is an 'I boggle' in addition to the 'Wow' because I tend to skew Wow as positive/impressed. That may not be how everyone uses it. It's just how I tend to. Something for 'I boggle' would differentiate between positive or neutral wows and a negative.

Oh my god, *hugs* would be SUCH a good emoji! Upon reflection, I am baffled that Facebook doesn't have it already.

I know! When someone says they have a cold or that it's cold outside, tears seem like too much, and when someone's lost a person or pet, I want to offer comfort rather than just saying, "That's sad."

I wish FB could differentiate between "wow!" as in yay, and "wow" as in, I boggle. I guess I end up using the heart emoji for hugs most often.

I use heart for hugs. There's no emoji for boggling, but a comment with "O.o" translates nicely, even if it ends up as a comment. :/

The reaction/emoji that I keep wishing for is one that goes, "Huh?" It's the perfect reaction for so many things.
