I have been resisting the pull of Twitter, I think mainly because my attention span is short enough and... ooo! piece of candy!
Where was I? (lol) Anyway, I can totally see the appeal of Tweets, but then again I also don't need more excuses to say EVERY SINGLE FREAKING THING that pops into my head out loud. And believe me, I would.
Like this:
~I felt Jenny's baby kick tonight. It was the COOLEST THING EVER. There is a real live person in there! (More on this later)
~I think the vast majority of radio DJ's are idiots and I would do a much, MUCH better job.
~I really want to have my own travel TV show. Like that girl that goes to all the beaches! Only significantly less skanky.
~I feel 2 zits developing on my face. I thought I used up my zit quota in high school and college! Yes, college. Oy.
~I am working on what should be a very cool post about sewing, knitting, and polygamy.
~I am working on a lot of very cool posts.
~There was a great interview on Cast On with a woman who started an awesome crochet magazine and gave it up. She said, "I'm not a quitter, I'm a starter." I love this!
~Next week, I am going to visit this place. I am insanely excited!!
~I really, really, really, really, really hope Dan gets a job soon so I can move to England!
~Or that I find some incredible open-ended awesome job here in the meantime.
~Because I'm BORED. Being unemployed is not as much fun as it sounds.
~It is sort of fun though - today Tay and I went into the city to have lunch with my cousin who works in fashion to talk about the fashion industry.
~I saw MANY parallels to Jenny's job as a civil engineer.
~Clearly, I tweet better than I blog.
~Speaking of tweeting, I got the cutest fabric today with little birdies on it!
~Dogs are starting to grow on me a little. Despite this, I am more positive than ever that I will never ever ever ever ever have one as a pet.
~I am taking a photography class online with Allison Tyler Jones over at Big Picture Scrapbooking. It is FANTASTIC. Watch this space for AWESOME photos!
Sounds like you'd be great on twitter! I am on twitter... but I still don't get it. I am pondering leaving again but I can't completely decide, mainly because my brother's on it...

Oh thank you so much for your comment on Twitter!
What a waste of time this is. No worthwhile content whatsoever.

Oh I so disagree! I'm enthralled with twitter. I've put some time in networking and created a few key groups. One for healers, one for web development and design, one for doulas and midwives and one for righteous mamas. Anytime I need any kind of information it's there! Great networking tool!
I'd love to tweet with you dear :-)

I disagree too. Twitter can be a time drain if you're not careful but it's been SUCH an awesome one-stop resource for anything I'm looking for - I've found help with web design, recipes, gardening tips, and made some great connections with awesome people. It took me awhile to really "get it" or get anything out of it but now I love it. :)

Oh I know, I'm sure it would be great!! I am just scared to death of how much time I'd spend doing it!
Though it has stolen my dear Hillary, so I may have to go over there to see her :)

No, but seriously I miss you and have been cracking up reading your posts. I want to know more about the photography course your taking.
