Twitter: A Glorified Way To Complain

I'm not even going to pretend that anyone will ever read this, so if I don't start off by saying "hi, how are ya?", try not to be offended. That's assuming anyone does come across this accidently and decides they are bored enough to spend precious minutes of their time on my ramblings. But I digress.

The random thought I want to allow the world in on today concerns Twitter. Quite honestly, I don't get the point of Twitter. I think it's wholeheartedly stupid. No one really wants to read about their friends diet habits or drunken party adventures. It's silly and useless! It is a glorified way to complain. That's pretty much what I use it for. Yes, I do use it by the way. I post odd blurbs about my summer classes, work and I talk to the only person I actually know in real life on occasion. I ask myself everyday, "Why do you have a Twitter account?" Then I have to remind myself I only have Twitter so I can follow American Idol Season 8 contestant Anoop Desai.
That's him :) I fully don't consider that stalking, just FYI. But if I do decide to keep writing, I will write more about him...especially as July 20th draws closer. That is the epic day where the AI concert tour comes to Glendale, Arizona. Guess what? I have tickets!! Row 8! I don't know how my friend and I got so lucky, but we did and I'm so excited!
Now I'm off topic. Well, rest assured it won't be the last time it happens. Actually, I'm not even sure this blog has a topic, besides Twitter. I never promised to stay exclusive to that topic though. You should see what I write on myspace! I feel horribly guilty for writing here and not myspace but we all need a little change of scenery. Besides, I'm 99.9% certain no one will read this, and that is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. Don't ask me why I'm writing because frankly I have no idea either. I work at my college (Federal Work Study) and when my boss is absent I really don't have much to do. I created this account to leave a comment on my friend Stacys blog about my obsession with Anoop. Here, I'll link it: http://azsunshinebabe7.blogspot.com/2009/06/june-6-2009-346pm-dear-blogger-todays.html
She's quite an excellent writer, but she makes me sound nuts. I am, but the whole world doesn't need to know! No, I gave her permission to write this joke blog, even though most of it isn't a joke. That's a scary thought isn't it? Most of what she says is true. I do have the UNC t-shirt, I did buy the iTunes and I do watch the videos with no sound at work. What? My boss has been gone for a week or so and if I get bored enough soundless Youtube is my savior. You can only study so much before your brain explodes and I prefer to read regular books during my lunch. Now the only thing I can say about that blog is that I wanted to be a librarian in the Smithsonian before I learned about Anoop and his former work experience. You are more than welcome to ask my Women & Religion class, because I told them that during one of those idiotic "getting to know you"exercises at the beginning of January: before Idol.
I do love her blog though. It made me laugh hysterically and realize how insane I can get. Being delusional is a way of life for me and I've come to accept it. I am, after all, a Harry/Hermione fan. We're delusional, militant and we miss anvil-size hints! Wow, it must be three years now since that interview on Mugglenet and I can still remember it nearly word for word. I also realized how comma happy I can be...sorry 'bout that.
Well I'm sick of writing so I suppose I'll go study Spanish or Geology now. Or I can dig out "Phantom"by Susan Kay and finish it for the fourth time. I do have "Beachcomber" by Karen Robards out in my car...but there are other various books in my trunk as well. Hmmm. Never a dull moment huh? ;)
