It&#8217;s funny, when I first heard about Twitter I really didn&#8217;t get it, I just couldn&#8217;t understand why anyone would use it&#8230; Not really sure what changed, except that <a href="http://www.auspiciouscoincidence.org/ac/">the girl</a> got on <a href="http://twitter.com/grrrl">it</a> and it was a nice way of staying in touch. And then lately some other people started following me or me <a href="http://twitter.com/judell">them</a>, and I started to really enjoy what <a href="http://twitter.com/neshka">they</a> were saying.<br />
It is kinda strange to have people follow me, that I don&#8217;t really know, don&#8217;t know if they know me, or how they found me. Davee seems to feel the <a href="http://www.owlmonkey.com/blog/archives/2008/05/09/minor-interaction-issue-with-twitter/">same</a>. But also sometimes quite interesting and fun! </p>

Out of the dreams we had, they&#8217;re bad<br />

Tell them the fairytale gone bad </em></p>

<p>You know, if I&#8217;d spent as much time practicing as I am wallowing around in these love dramas of mine, I&#8217;d be enlightened by now&#8230;</p>
<p>Well, I sure hope this current one is finally finished&#8230;</p>
