Chasm of Books: Twitter & Me (5)

I come across a ridiculous amount of things on twitter that either make me laugh right out loud or fangirl. I'm not kidding you. I try to smother my laughing and freak outs for most of them and I'm usually successful but then there are these other things that I just can't smother. So I retweet and favorite then move on. But I've always felt kind of sad that these things will soon fade from memory (or most people's at least) in a few days.

Therefore, to give you a break from all of the book reviews, I'll be blogging some "Twitter & Me" posts every so often. The regularity of this all depends on what I come across on twitter.

WARNING: Laughing, fangirling, and smiling may occur.

We had a special someone to watch over us and keep us motivated on our writing retreat ;) Thanks to @Bethany_Hagen! pic.twitter.com/tPjYNhlcfc

This didn't make me laugh but it sure is cute.

Did you know that in 2004 a French author wrote a book entirely without verbs? #conversationstarter

Interesting.

I get so tired when the twitter feed turns into the comments section. For once, can't we just look for the good?

Oh my word. Yes. The comments section can get so nasty and can even make the happiest of articles depressing.

I don't really need to say anything here, do I?

We're not surprised.

@margotwood I went to bathroom, came back, and bagel was gone from my desk. I'll also attribute this to magic, instead of full-looking dog

It's imperative to check your self pity at the door to success. It's hard to be empowered when you're playing the victim.

Not a funny one but I love it so much. Very true.

@marierutkoski Probably. Even just going down to the mailbox, I think about what I'd do if someone tried to grab me from the road. :P

Me, last night, to a friend: "No, that's ok, thanks. I'll just carry the burden of my own paranoia."

My dog is a passive aggressive bully to our other dogs. Where did she get this? I'm careful to only model aggressively aggressive behavior.
