Boom
I must say, even though it’s only been two days so far I find myself slightly addicted to Twitter. I can say that the reason I like it the most would probably be that it’s helped pass the time while i’ve been at work. On top of that, it’s fascinating how easy it is to connect with people on there when it comes to finding out things. For instance, i’ve been thinking about upgrading WordPress all day, but holding back on the simple fact that I don’t want the site to implode after the upgrade is complete. Following some conversations on Twitter, I’ve seen that people are upgrading seamlessly which has brought my paranoia down somewhat. I’ll probably go ahead with the upgrade tomorrow now since I’ll be home all day & won’t have much else to do anyway.
I never did get up this morning to cook, sleeping seemed like a much better idea at the time especially when people started calling me at 10AM to see if I wanted to play Halo 3 before work. Regardless, after I decided to finally get up to spend quality Xbox Live time with my cousin & brother I headed off to work where i’ve pretty much spent the entire day on Twitter & various other places to kill time.
Spending the day on Twitter has made me realize that I enjoy social networking sites more than I’ve originally let off, or maybe I’ve just been ruined by how clunky Myspace is which made me assume all social sites were the same. People keep asking me why I haven’t made a Facebook yet & apart from the usual “I’m too lazy” excuse I’ve been riding with the “all those sites are lame” line, too. I suppose that’s going to change now, because if Facebook is even half as fun as Twitter is then I’ll enjoy it a lot.
I almost feel defeated because I’ve put off making a Facebook for so long & now I’m all anxious to go home so I can set one up. Like i’ve said before though, I’ll go ahead and place the blame on Myspace for being so clunky, unintuitive & shallow as my reasons for not wanting to venture out into other social sites. Better late than never is what I always say anyway, so that’s always a plus.
I really need to relax this weekend, because it seems like the last few weeks all I’ve been doing is running around while leaving little time for me to just sit down and collect myself. Aside from cleaning the apartment and paying some bills, luckily I have nothing to do until I go back to work on Wednesday. For the most part, I really want to keep this week as slow as possible to give things a change of pace from what it’s been usually.
All in all, today has been pretty good and tomorrow should follow suit since I already know what I need to get done:
- Upgrade WordPress without breaking the site
- Set up a Facebook page
- Stare at Twitter
- Cook/clean
- Waste away on Xbox Live
- Recompile Apache & update the permalinks
Nice & simple, I think.
Later folks.
