Say Something Original

I'm loving my friends on twitter. If you don't engage in the social media circles like twitter, facebook, and myspace, let me invite you to join us. For the most part, we all just your average Joe's (except for the celebrities), and we are building real relationships. My only complaint is when some people on twitter have nothing to say. They follow thousands of people and Re-tweet those people all day long. Re-tweeting or RTing is when you send along to your followers what other people you follow have said. It's certainly fine when someone says something obviously funny, or poignant, but every little thing? Not so much.

For me, it's so much more fun to have real conversations and share our lives than it is to quote Henry Ford, Zig Ziglar, or any number of other over-quoted successful people. Aren't we all successful in our own rights? I think yes! Say something original and make my day. Heck, I might even RT you! Smiling!

This is why I deleted a lot of the people I was following :-)

I have a few more to go. Just didn't want to go delete happy all in one day :-)
...and what's with that delay? I'm tweeting along to you just to see 15 minutes later, your tweet pop up saying you are going to bed.
Oh yeah, so it looks like you said bye and 15 minutes after that I'm in denial and still talking to you blah blah blah... hahaha
