post to Twitter and Flickr at 8:36pm every day for a while

Borrowed this from someone that borrowed this — 2 months ago

Twitter

I’ve had a account for about 5 or 6 months and soon after signing up, mostly forgot about it.

I kept asking people, “Have you ever used Twitter?”.

All with the same response, I’ve never heard of it.

Perhaps I need to start running in a different social circle. Wait, perhaps I just need a social circle? Anywho…

Just the other day I saw a
video with Jack Dorsey,CEO of Twitter. explaining what Twitter is and the various ways it can be used. I thought enough of said video to add it to my blog nobody reads.

All of which got me to thinking about folks here on 43things and who might be using this nifty little tool.

Using the handy/dandy search engine I found a entry by the infamous
Buster McLeod who claims to have gotten the idea of posting every day at 8:36pm from
Chadwick. Not being a particularly proud individual I shamelessly jumped on the bandwagon.

Is this post wearing you down yet? I ask because its wearing my narrow white Irish arse out writing the damn thing!

Anyway, thought I’d give this a try for a while. If in fact you have read this far and are still awake you can follow me here.

Whew! I’m going to go lay down for a bit. This wiped me out.

I think Twitter is best utilized by people who have lives. :P My entries would probably look something like this:

10:24 am – Alaythia is doing the dishes.

1:19pm – Alaythia is doing the dishes again.

7:32pm – Guess what Alaythia is doing?! Hint: it rhymes with “wishes”.

What?

I’m not exactly James Bond over here myself.

Last nights tweet involved beans, rice,cheese enchiladas,a Zydeco street concert, ice cream at Dairy Queen, all taken in with my very cute friend. She likes to refer to me as “Not dog ass ugly”. I’ll use it in a sentence.

“I don’t get why you don’t have a girlfriend. Your funny,sweet and your not dog ass ugly”

I’m never quite sure how to respond to that.

“Thanks”?

“Your a cutie but you’d be smoking hot if your breasts were larger.”?

LIke I said, I never know what to say to that.

I just read this back. Cute girl, good food, a little culture, and a D.Q. ice cream. If it sounded like I was complaining before, forgive me. :)

Dairy Queen!

Oh I miss Dairy Queen. They have a few here (in shopping centers, no less) but none are very close to where we live. They also don’t serve beef which I find extremely odd. _{Now I really want an Oreo blizzard. : /}

What is Zydeco music like? I’ve heard the term tossed around before but I don’t really know what it refers to.

You know, Zydeco

You know Cajun, swamp, gator-fest,tail sucking, music with an accordion and a washboard?

Eh,go here you’ll see. Warning, you will be a in a good mood after listening to this music for more than 30 seconds. :)

I'd have to differ

It’s that sawing accordion part I don’t like, as if the accordion is going to blow a gasket and stroke out any second.

Same thing I don’t like about Tejano music.

Accordion, for me, works best in tango, and perhaps that corny French music (can take limited doses of the latter).

But that’s just me, and that’s why it’s so great to have a world with so many kinds of music.

Did I read this right? - Stitch

sort of what Alaythia said - Emily

you know - Emily

It's catchy.

I’m not going to go out and buy a CD of it or anything, but it’s fun.

_{Like Emily, I’m not a fan of the accordion (it’s on my list of loathed instruments—along with the organ and the harmonica) but I can appreciate that other people enjoy it. I feel much the same way about opera. Yes, you have an amazing range and your voice has the ability to shatter glass…now for the love of God be quiet.}

^{To each his own, I guess. :D}

Our Dairy Queen

Gets to be a bit of a mad house this time of year. On Friday and Saturday nights the line at the drive through goes clear around the building and out into the street. Its worth the wait though.

They closed the one in my hometown. _{Sniff Sniff.} They tore it down and built a McDonald’s in its stead. : /

_{Some useless trivia: In Texas, Dairy Queens are referred to as “Texas stop signs”.}
