In my real life, I have a lot of friends who just don’t “get” Twitter. They say they don’t have time for it  (WHAT? Do they think I do?) And they always ask, “WHY would I want to know what a total stranger had for breakfast?”
(I always answer, “It’s at least as interesting as knowing [...]

Now that I’ve emerged from my strange-and-most-likely-hormone-induced fog, I’d like to say that I’m no longer Twuant (*absent from the Twitter). I’d like to say that. But really, my visits to the Twitter have still been sporadic.
But lucky you… I’m gonna participate in the Twitter Ho-Down at Fellowship of the Traveling Smarty Pants anyway!
And maybe [...]

As lousy as I STILL feel, I’m surprised at how witty I’ve been on the Twitter this week. I’m also surprised at how often I was on the Twitter this week. And I’m kinda surprised at what I SAID on the Twitter this week.
Are y’all sure I was on the Twitter this week? It’s all [...]

Actual conversation today between Charlie and me:
Charlie enters kitchen from his office. I shout to him from the living room:
“Your last tweet was on my account.”
“That means YOUR account is on my Tweetdeck on my iPhone,” he replies.
“Well, YEAH. It WAS on there before you let me get my OWN iPhone. But I thought I [...]

An unexamined tweet is not worth blogging.
Yeah, I know today’s the Twitter Ho-Down. And I have definitely succeeded at being a Twitter Ho this week. In fact, in the past 48 hours, I enjoyed some really fun-but-maybe-a-bit-disturbing-sometimes conversations on the Twitter. And that’s the problem with today’s post:
I’ve spent too much time playing on the [...]

Hello and welcome to my late-arriving Friday post. Let’s just pretend I’m on the West Coast, shall we? Then I can be three hours less late than I really am.
Okay.
Welcome to the Twitter Ho-Down, as hosted by The Fellowship of the Traveling Smarty Pants. Below, the best of ME from this week. I was oddly [...]

Today’s the Twitter Ho-down over at Fellowship of the Traveling Smartypants. I’ll play along in a minute, but first:
Yesterday I made up a new word. Neato, huh?
But I had no one to share it with.
You know why?
Because the Twitter was down! (The HORROR.)
For hours in the middle of the day, I could not share this [...]

It’s Twitter Ho-Down Time!
(Also known as Post-that-requires-no-thinking-since-my-brain-is-swollen-shut Time!)
If you’re not on the Twitter, you’ve missed some of my cleverest stuff – if I do say so myself. We wouldn’t want that, so without further ado,
My week in 140-character bursts:
(As usual, reading from the bottom up makes a LITTLE more sense.)

Wanna know how random this post is?
I just named it after a fictional show on Demi Lovato’s new Disney Channel show, “Sonny with a Chance.”
That’s how random.
(I know: I am way too knowledgeable about children’s programming.)
Anyway, first, I want to thank my lovely commenters for the warm (and absorbent) response to the Wearable Towel.
Look for [...]

Hey,
Thank you to all who’ve commented or Tweeted your condolences to our family this week on the passing of Charlie’s dad. Charlie has been really busy with funeral arrangements and dealing with the estate. Here in Georgia, life kinda goes on.
So in that vein, yesterday the kids and I went to see “UP.”
The verdict: WONDERFUL [...]
