Twitter . . . I Have a Bone to Pick with You

Yes . . . I have a beef with Twitter.

Why, you ask?

Look to the right . . . next to my picture. See the word "Tweet?"

That's not there so you can "tweet" me or connect to Twitter or follow my tweets.

That's my nickname . . . since I was a wee babe . . . maybe 1 or 2 years old. My mom always called me "Tweet" "Tweetie" "Tweeter" or "Tweeter Bug" . . . when I hear those names, that's me . . . I'll always answer. I even had a vanity plate in the 80s that read "Tweet."

My beef? I don't want everyone thinking you can "tweet" me. Or if I leave a comment on your blog . . . it says it's from "Tweet." Wouldn't that confuse you? I feel like I need to change my nick name on my blog now and that makes me feel sad.

But what new name fits?

*Sigh*

I should make THEM change THEIR name! Chirpy? WOT (Waste of Time)?

We'll see....

Tweetie Pie

That is an unfortunate coincidence....when I saw your comment in my email that is exactly what I thought!

What if you use one of your nickname versions of tweet?

OR better yet

You can go around commenting as if you are TWITTER and twitter itself is commenting...

oooh a power trip?

that is all

hehe, I definitely was a little confused when I read your comment... thought it was somehow a "tweet"...that stinks though, you obviously were "Tweet" before twitter existed.

Maybe a variation would work.

Thank you so much for stopping by and your sweet comment!

Life and Five Question Friday

WoW ! Exactly a month since my last post and I'm going to revert to my usual "Five Question Friday" staple. Life has just been one cRaZY thing after another since the boys and I were in the play. Here are just a few highlights: I turned 51. Woo Hoo !! I may be losing yet another job (but positive thinking is leading me to new possibilities!) My brother was stabbed and almost didn't live to tell the tale (a couple of flat lines in the OR and a VERY long scar from his sternum down past his bellybutton are evidence) My youngest brother and his family were here for a visit (I haven't seen them since 2007) And . . . I'm set for ONE more surgery on my shoulder. And this will be the last one . . . absolutely . . . positively!! PHEW! I think that's enough for the summer. Now . . . on to the questions for the day. If you want to play along, copy and paste the questions to your blog (or just answer them in my comments area), link back to the fabulous Mama M

Where is the year going?

Is it really almost June? Time flies when you're having . . . a. Car issues. b. Play practice until 10p or later every night. c. Haters for Co-workers d. Youngest child is graduating from high school e. All of the above Things feel out of control right now so I'm hoping some time this summer I'll get a nice vacation. "Calgon, take me away!" Now . . . for 5QF . . . or Five Question Friday . . . or the only time I blog these days :) 1. Do you have an iPhone and, if so, how do you get apps and what are your favorites? 2. What is your fondest memory of K-3rd grade? 3. What makes you cringe at the thought of touching? 4. If you could have any celebrity show up on your doorstep who would it be and why? 5. What would you say is your best physical feature? Copy and past these to your blog, or just answer them in my comments area. Have fun. And be sure to thank Mama M !! 1.
