Introducing.... Twitter!

I have a tendency to be incredibly random. I used to get daily randomness out of my system by means of texting my 2 BFFs, but when 1 moved to London we couldn't text our random thoughts to each other anymore. I also maintain an unrelated MySpace blog that I would use to deposit my random thoughts of the day (I'd just keep an e-mail window open all day at work and when weird shit would come to me, I'd write it down), kind of like a pensieve from Harry Potter. It is just a way to get the randomness out of my head so it doesn't get cluttered in there. However, since I don't sit at a desk all day anymore, it's even been hard to keep up with that.

Then I discovered Twitter.

At first I didn't get the point.... who would go to that site JUST to read random ass thoughts? (answer: The same hundreds of people who faithfully read my random ass thoughts on MySpace) Then I realized you could post the feeds on OTHER sites (like, say, my blog(s)), and then I had a moment when I was driving home from a wasted Djarum Black run to the downtown Puff 'n Chew (a drive through tobacco shop that's incredibly hood/white trash, but has the best prices in the city.... AND I don't even have to get out of my car) after my dumb ass realized I left my wallet at home, and was like "damn I need to put this in a blog" but didn't have a blog handy......... Eureka! In comes Twitter.

So as an added bonus, I've added a Twitter feed to the blog. Read it if you want to, follow it if you want to, but it's more for my own mental health than anything. Enjoy.

People keep telling me about Twitter. I'm not sure I want to dive into that one...but it'd probably help...you can do it straight from your phone can't you? Off to investigate.

Yup, it posts automatically from sending a text message! Very familiar and comfy for me. :)

Listing in real time.....the wave of the future!
