On being a cultist.

 

On a whim yesterday I signed myself up for twitter. Or I should say, I now have a twitter account. I have not a clue as to what I will do with it, if anything. Really, I am ‘out there’ more than I should be as it is.

I thought it would be fun to be on the ‘reading end.’

Steve Martin made me laugh out loud. I mean, he made me LOL.

Damn, I am getting good at this already.

One thought that hit me though, I am now one step closer to being the *twit* that my Dad often accused me of being.

Heck, that right there could have been my very first tweet!

I also signed myself up for Groupon.  {Thank you Dawn!} and with that I was able to sign myself up for a photography class at a very reduced price upcoming in a few weeks.  

I joined two things in one day.

Watch out, soon I will be in a real cult.

Yes, I’m talking about AVON.

Kidding.

Not really.

Ok, for you brilliant people and my non commenters too:

Dave Matthews or David Cassidy?

Barry White or Barry Manilow?

You do realize it is very easy to leave a comment don’t you?

Even a boxer can do it.

I double dog dare you.

Don’t you hate it when someone refers to you as a *Sissy*?

Sissy.

XOXOXOX

  1. Dave Matthews, Barry White.

    I have a twitter account I use only for reading. The people I follow really make me laugh. Are you going to use yours to make witty observations about life? I would so read those! I'll have to go back to your post and look for a link I might have missed.

  6. Ok, first my answers are:
    Neither
    Both

    Congrats on becoming an official twit! I still haven't drunk the kool-aid. However, I signed up for Groupon the day I got back from my visit with Tiffany (in Kentucky) because she's totally hooked. Sadly, I have yet to take advantage of any of the deals yet.

  7. You have me laughing again today Suz. Last week when we were in the doctor's office waiting our turn, we could hear the patient's voice in the next room talking to the dr. It sounded exactly like Barry White!!!

  8. Oh golly, please do not make me choose between those 4 choices...I think I'd rather talk about the Beatles :)

  9. Now you just need one of those cute little "follow me on twitter" buttons. I've seen retweets of Steve Martin and they're pretty funny. : )

  10. David Cassidy and Barry White for sure. David Cassidy and "I Think I Love You" is classic. Barry White and a disco ball...fun times.

  12. I knew I'd get you hooked on Birds.
    Cassidy and Manilow.
    (Oh yeah, both comments reveal that I'm out of touch with current events.)

  13. ah, you had me at Dave Matthews

    So - Dave Matthews and Barry Manilow. Oh Mandy.

    follow me on twitter @kimberlyeileen

  14. Dave Matthews. And I am ashamed to say Barry Manilow. I thought I was cooler than that. But his songs are so singable!

    ReplyDelete
  15. DAVE MATTHEWS!! I used to be a groupie. And then I got married, and didn't have time to follow him around the country.

    And I am loving Groupon. I am still not on The Twitter.

  16. Dave Mathews and neither.

    Ok so I have twitter account too...I liked it for about 3 weeks, then it drove me nuts (hate FB too) but I still have my account...if you want to "follow me" I will "follow you" and we can be twit cult buddies together

    @nightstandtales

    Mr. Rogers or Roger Rabbit?

  17. you DID sign up for twitter?! oh my gosh. it has crossed my mind and then i decided i don't wanna learn anything else. well, only the great stuff you teach here on your blog :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. I must admit that I haven't made the leap to either Facebook or Twitter. I get behind enough in blogland! I must say that I don't need Twitter to LOL as long as you keep blogging!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I am on twitter but forget to tweet. When I do I get followers- its weird cos I just tweet rubbish and inane stuff. I don't really understand it. My sister in law is signed up to groupon here in the UK- must investigate XX

  20. I'm stopping at Blogging and FB. FB alone kills me. I bet you could have some good bloggin' material from what you read on Twitter!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Blogging is about all I can handle, Suz... I have not entered the Facebook world OR the Twitter world...

    My son and family love Dave Matthews... I used to love Barry Manilow---but these days, I'm a country music fan (Brad Paisley, Alan Jackson, etc.).

    Hugs,
    Betsy

  22. Cassidy and White. But maybe if I knew who Dave Matthews is, I would choose him. This is so hard!!!
    Anyway, I don't twitter, tweet or whatever. I'm not even sure if I need to buy something that does that or if I do it through my desktop. And I'm not sure of it's purpose either. And like Matthews above, maybe if I knew what it did, I would want it.
    I'm very careful about adding to Facebook because when I was adding to it daily, my Blog suffered. So now I just make smartass comments to my "Friends".
    Your Friend, m.

  25. You have a deadly dry wit that would make me spew milk from my nose, if I drank milk...as it is, I just snort from your funniness and reach for a kleenex! Anyhow, this is my first comment here, because I had to stand up for my men, David Cassidy and ESPECIALLY, Barry Manillow~~ yup, I'm over 50 and proud of it!!! I also see that several others have made this same choice. Good to see we're still out here ;)

    Thanks for your blog...I know you said a little bit ago that you were thinking of throwing in the blogger towel, but I'd rather you didn't...like I said before, lovin' your wit...and YES, AVON is a cult.

  26. Dave Matthews and BARRY MANILOW

    Think I"ll go look up my Twitter account I set up and have never used.

    ReplyDelete
  27. don't know dave matthews and don't like any of the other three..

    i DO comment occasionally, sometimes, rarely, once-in-while, maybe.... ;)

  28. David Cassidy and what were the second choices? OMG! I have been with my MIL for the last 12 days...I can not remember a damn thing! I have been with Hubs for the last 12 days, 24/7 in less than 1000 sq. ft. Our two boxers have been with us as well. I have seen them looking at my throat... I am soooo excited to have internet access again...

  29. I am way too OCD to tweet--I would never get anything done.

    Now that you're on Groupon(amazing deals!), you need to try Juice in the City, Mamapedia, Buy with Me and Living Social.

    Dave Matthews and Barry Manilow (at the Copacabana!)

  30. Can't do it. Won't do it. Need to leave time to pee every day.

  31. LOL I fought twitter for sooo long...now I am a wee bit addicted! See you there! @SassyModernMom

    ReplyDelete
  32. Good grief, Cassidy & Manilow were my teen idols so I guess I'll choose them. My kids hate when I sing their songs. I have a dozen thoughts a day that I think would be good to tweet, but I know they're not really as funny or profound as I'd like to think!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Definitely Dave Matthews, but did you have to put Barry White with Barry Manilow? Can't make a decision on that one!
    I had a twitter account but canceled it because I didn't know what to do with it!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I'm sure you made a typo here. You meant to say, "Soon I'll be a cult", didn't you?

    When you tweet, I think you post about what on earth you tweet about.

    I will say I never thought to set up an account just to read other tweets.

    I like all four singers, but, truth be told, you'd catch me singing to Manilow and Cassidy. Pinkie swear.

  35. I read "David Cassidy" and any coherent thought went right out of my head. *sigh*sigh*sigh*

    ReplyDelete
  36. grrr...it's that live traffic feed thingy, huh...I'll get better..
    I pick Dave and ummm, Berry :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. You mean like, "Listen here, Sissy..."?
    I can't decide between those musicians. I must not have had enough coffee today.
    BEEing good & BEEing sweet are natural for you, Suz! But BEEing in a cult? Not so much - you are more of a leader than a follower, and certainly not a twit.

  38. I have not twitted or tweeted yet. Perhaps you will link us to some of your first tweets so we won't miss out on anything fun.
