• Twit-what?

  So, yeah... It's been almost 3 weeks since my last post! Not that anyone really reads this; it's more just my venting/organize thoughts place. Only publicly. Nothing big by today's standards at all.

  Well, one day I got bored and decided I'd join Twitter... I'm still trying to understand the whole thing. I borrowed a book from the library, but since my eyes are a little wonky, my dyslexia is kicking my arse so I can't really understand a word. Yeah, it's easy to fix: get an eye exam and get new prescriptions for my glasses and contacts. However, I ain't gots the money, so it's not really on my need to get done list. I can't even read upside down to get my eyes to focus/concentrate! (That's the trick I use most often when my dyslexia is at a high level and my eyes feel a little weak...) Thank goodness I have a Nook that I can change the color of the screen and words in order to read. But, since the library's e-reader library is a little lusterless, I don't really get anything of too much interest... Wow... I'm scraping the barrel for that bit of news, huh?

  So, yeah, I'm on Twitter now. That's been a very interesting time. I spend most of my time reading news stories and such since I'm a little picky at who I want to follow. In the first couple weeks of me joining, I got those lovely ladies who, upon checking their profile, had the whole triple x links to "their websites." Um... No. Sorry. I'm okay with my sexuality, but I'm not exactly one to watch someone else flaunt theirs! Plus, c'mon... I really don't care about girl on girl action or who's getting laid tonight. I know we've come quite a ways in exploiting our sexuality as a society in the last 100 or so years, but when I see little girls (ages 6 and up) trying to wear something from the Pussy Cat Dolls clothing line, I believe there is a disconnect somewhere in the promotion of sex and sexuality.

  Um... yeah... Twitter... I keep getting sidetracked... Imagine that... I follow mostly veteran related stuff. I try to follow as many other veterans as I can. I've even gotten a few tweeps from across the Pond. It's a very interesting 'networking' site. And I bet it'll be even better when I actually figure out what all the RTs, #FF, and crap is really saying!

  Nothing else really going on. I've had 2 interviews in the past month and didn't get either position. I keep applying for all kinds of secretary, office assistant, administrative assistant positions I can find. It's very frustrating! Tomorrow I'm going to hit up a couple of places that are "Apply in person" applications. Should be very interesting. Going to try to get up a little earlier than usual so I can beat the heat, if I can! I'm still experiencing my good and bad days with my back; I'm just ignoring the bad ones as much as I can!

  Oh, and, you're going to slap me, but for whatever reason, I've been thinking about The Guy and The Kid lately. I haven't in a really long time (a few months maybe?) and it confuses the crap out of me. Every time I find myself thinking about them, I try to focus and remember that I need to stay in the now. I know it's been almost a year since I left, but how do I stop? I thought I had gotten everything out after that book journey I took. I even had my therapist say I'm doing such a good job and that I've really worked on letting the situation go and moved on with my life. And then out of nowhere, they're back... I don't get it...

  Well, I guess that's all for tonight. I'm getting really sleepy... Hope y'all have been well and that all is good! Until next time... CIAO!!
