I munched and listened to the message.
Afterwards:
O-kaaay. "Hm."
I played it again and started moving to it as I munched some more.

Third time, I was doing hip hop moves in my kitchen."Yeah, YEAH, this is TIGHT!"
I've usually hesitated from joining Twitter for fear that I'd spend too much time trying to think of cool "tweets" to share with my "followers."
However, as of late, I've already been going on Facebook religiously (mainly to check on who accepted the invitation to my May 9 gig) and as a side effect, I've updated my Facebook status message pretty consistently. (I haven't dropped the habit, although the gig's over...)
Also, it IS hard to blog regularly. So with Twitter, I could "talk" to you more often, and then you wouldn't have to wait weeks, but only hours, even minutes, for deep thoughts, by Carolyn Chen. (And you'd probably get less deep thoughts, too.)
But is that what you want?
Is that what I want?
Even if I joined, I would still not "tweet" during work hours although a big portion of my day is spent at work. I've decided to never go on social networking sites during work hours, which is probably a good thing -- work can be kind of annoying, and there's no need to bring you into that world ("If I see another attorneys' fees request, I'm going to gag," but there could also be the potential for cool tweets like "OMG- just saw Erwin Chemerinsky in the Court of Appeals!").
Regardless, I could still tweet during off-hours -- which is still a lot of time in a day for Carolyn exposure.
Could we all handle that?
I don't know if I can even handle writing about it on this blog post, ughhh...
But I am open.
And as Mike says, it may just be a matter of time.
Susan B., if you're reading this, I miss you. When are you going to grace us with your presence on The Permanent New Girl?
