Mmmm... panic

So I've neglected my poooooor Twitter. (I start too many posts with 'So' I think...)

And there's really no excuse. I update FB a thousand times a day via text. Twitter is just as simple.

But I'm an attention whore. And 90% of tweets go unread. And I can't sign on to FB without a notification.

So I actually went onto Twitter today, followed some of my friends who added me eons ago (sorry) and updated my ridiculously out-of-date profile.

Next stop... the blog... and I just can't bring myself to update my "about me" section. It means erasing The Observer, The Courier and even my retail job (naw, didn't quit, but I'm now part-time).

I'm pathetic.

In moronic news... I sent a verrrrrry stupid text to Irish. Or, at least I thought it was to Irish. I just assumed she was the last person I texted (and usually, she is... I need a bf...)

So, who was the last person I texted?!? TWITTER. F....M....L....!

In an unexpected twist of irony, my effort to utilize Twitter more has made me NEVER want to use twitter EVER again.

I realized my error almost immediately. And then panicked, trying to figure out how to delete the tweet.

On a possibly related note... I think that if you've found my Twitter, then surely you've been here too... And I just wanted you to know... that I googled you. And even though I may have more to hide, you have more to lose. (Why does this sound like a threat? I wanna be your friend, but I don't know what the rules are...)

New semester, new me...

So what do ya think of the redesign? Pretty damn sexy if I do say so myself. 2 1/2 hours of dicking around and not liking anything, followed by an hour of solid work. Don't get excited, all I did was customize the template and back ground, then tweaked the settings. I wasn't messing around with HTML. Some new features include my Twitter feed, links to other websites that I've worked on or have featured my work, and a welcome message (with the much-needed disclaimer!) Also, there's a search option, and now you can follow and subscribe! So please do! I would like to have a rough idea of who's reading this thing. This is my audition for the Web Editor position at The Courier, Centennial College's student paper. I have grand plans for that site. GRAND. Everyone cross your fingers, toes and eyes for me. Another new feature is the jumps.
