if you are too lazy to blog...


i have been using twitter the past few days and i like it enough so far. i recommend it to those who like to write some "here's what i'm doing right now" type posts or random thoughts, ideas, etc. i am thinking dave might like this format and the quick 20 second effort in posting would be good for busy people (laura). here is my twitter link. read it if you want and if you decide to start your own, i will obviously follow it.

phil has mentioned that my twitter can be linked to my facebook account if i had one...to which i laughed and thought..."what is this? 2007?" seriously though guys...time to retire that facebook account that you never use.

so far i am following 6 people including tobin, who twitters quite frequently, and dan who has not twittered since last july. i am also following shaq's twitter postings as i find him hilarious.

since most of my friends do not use this free service, here are some samplings of what i would think that their twitters would look like:

turbo2oh: ehh...i wasn't feeling that bagel i ate earlier. i wish they would just time them and make them fresh for when i buy them...complain, complain, complain....

pir7plus1: arrr....(something about politics)

ultrimag: here's a secret...every time i look to the side and arch my eyebrows i pretend i am posing on a runway...shhh...

junyercitizen: i never, ever, ever clean my bathroom and it is hilarious.

ok everyone, time to get started.

mixing it up and coining new terms for stuff that obviously already exists


i have not blogged in nearly a month. i guess a fair amount of stuff has been going on and i have been lazy. i also sometimes end up wanting to write about too many unconnected things that i'm just like nevermind. so now i will be trying to blog little short bits (sometimes just a sentence or three) about one specific thing with the occasional long and drawn out post as it comes to me. is this sort of like twitter? here are some things i foresee happening as a result:
  • i will blog more often and include more little things that i would not otherwise have written about or remembered down the line.
  • my verbose essay posts will be met with less criticism and disdain as they will be less frequent.
  • i will get tired of this new style and start blogging with pictures only.
  • i will act like i have invented this style and coin a term that will be quickly picked up by the hip and become part of internet vernacular (maybe i should check with dave before using that word, which i assume i did so incorrectly)
  • that new term will be known as a llblog (short for lil' blog, pretty catchy, eh?)
prepare for llblog #1 coming up soon. read it and be a part of internet history.
