Virtually dizzy.

I was confused.

I stared at an article I was reading…

This should be shared…

The window in the corner kept telling me that people were re-tweeting me, @ mentioning me, and I had 3 DM’s.

My mind drifted…

Then the whispers started…

“It’s a good read.”

Post it on the microblog.

Celebrities have ended their digital lives. Okay.

Digital

Life

Sacrifice.

What is it?  It’s a campaign on behalf of a charity started by Alicia Keys called Keep A Child Alive.  Some heavy hitter celebrities ended their digital lives this past Tuesday (World AIDS Day).  This means they’ve signed off of social media platforms like Facebook, and Twitter, and will not sign on again until the charity raises one million dollars.

Why I am not following you on Twitter.

You want me to follow you.  I know you do.  Or maybe I already am.  I follow a lot of people on Twitter.

I am one of those people that actually checks their new followers on a regular basis- looks at their profiles, maybe checks out the website, then usually follows back out of some sense of obligation.  I like to give people a chance.

Nothing like a Twitter sh*tstorm. #AmazonFail

Nothing like a Twitter shit-storm to get my ass in front of the keyboard.

Today my stream was filled with the hashtag #AmazonFail, and later- a twitter account was opened with the username BOYCOTT_AMAZON.

Why?

Well, if you’ve been living under a rock or secluded in a monastery, I’ll tell you.

HOW TO TWEET WITH THE COOL KIDS- or at least just not annoy the crap out of me on Twitter.

If you’re going to tweet…

do it right.

And yes, of course, I am going to tell how to do that.

Disclaimer: These are my own stupid rules that I made up. However, I am incredibly cool, and almost always right.

Grammy wrap up. PS- I didn’t watch the Grammys.

The Grammys have been around for 52 years, and I have maybe watched it once. I love music- not too fond of award shows. Plus, I don’t really like to hear musicians and singers SPEAK. Nine times out of ten, it ruins the whole lovely image I have of them in my head.

Dear Blog,

Okay, I have become addicted to Twitter. It makes me feel connected to some strange collective consciousness. It’s yummy.

Anyway, one of my fellow mom/blogger/tweeter people sent out a tweet the other day that read like this.

Dear little man,

My bra is not a pocket.

Love,

Mama
