Just Another Girl on the Internet . . .

I don’t even remember what this ticket was for, but I’m tempted to keep it like I do to the tags on my mattress

Inspired by the following Tweets:

“Nobody wants to hang out with you if your not smiling – so I have decided to smile for the rest of my life cuz I <3 people” -Bsimi

“@Bsimi what if I can’t smile ’cause I’m making my fish face? Have you ever tried to smile like that!? Can’t be done!” -Me

I often hear that I don’t smile enough. Acually, I’ve been hearing it all my life. Some people are natural smilers, but I guess I’m not.

I do, however, make one hell of a fish face!

You just CAN’T smile when making a fish face.

Did I make you smile?

My coworkers are the best! When I made a point of letting them all know they missed my 1 year work anny Ray ran out and got us pink cupcakes to celebrate! Being a diva does pay off! Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

I received a delivery from Fruit2Day containing their 4 new new fruit “snack” flavors – Orange/Strawberry, Banana/Pineapple, Peach/Mango and Grape/Cherry.

The first one I tried was the Orange/Strawberry and it was Deeeelicious!! I could seriously see myself having one of these on a regular basis. Unlike a juice, Fruit2Day has real bits of fruit mixed into the bottle of 100% real fruit juice!

Update: I had the Pineapple/Banana this morning and it was just as yummy as the Orange/Strawberry!! The fruit bits are crispy and taste so fresh! It was an excellent start to my morning

This is certainly an awesome product for those of us who love fruit, but have a hard time fitting servings into their daily meals. Personally I buy fruit regularly, but it always ends up going bad before I can eat it. So, if you are anything like me then you should certainly keep an eye out for this new product.You can find it in the produce section of your local supermarket.

I have two coupons for a free two-pack which I will be happy to mail off to the 1st two people who email me with their mailing address

Big Thanks to SingleEdition for including me in this trial!! If you are living Single, like me, be sure to check out SingleEdition.com and subscribe to their weekly newsletter.

Back in the day… I can say that cause Twitter and I go way back… when Twitter was down it seemed every one (in my internets) would talk about it elsewhere – See: Jaiku, Plurk, Facebook, Seesmic, 12Seconds, etc.

I’ve been sitting here doing this n’ that and as usual I have the TV on, a habit I need to break since I am not even watching it. Sitting here for the past 3.5 hours with the E channel on I have heard more references to Twitter then ever!

I was planning to Tweet  ” If I drank every time “E” mentioned Twitter in the past 3 hrs, I’d be passed the Eff out! #TwitterMania – Might just beat The Beatles!”   – then I was reminded about the bit of buzz I caught earlier regarding the outage.

I never did catch where everyone was heading, but I’ve been kinda playing it low key tonight anyway.

PS.  How excited am I about the new show “Kendra“!!??

Times have changed since the days of Danny & Sandy. Relationships these days seem to come and go and it can be quite a task to keep up with who’s on again/off again. Well thanks to the fine folks at Social Diva, we now have “The Social Diva Dating Dictionary”.

These terms should help keep you and your fellow Divas up to speed when discussing the latest man in your life:

Five Minute Man: Our term for a relationship that lasts, oh, about five minutes. Quick and easy, it’s the Diva version of a catch and release program.

Summer Sometimes: The term for a man who you see when you feel like it. This is the guy who’s fun for a party, maybe dinner (and whatever else), but not really long-term relationship material.

Summer Fling: A romance that lasts while the weather is hot. Warm weather means steamy romance and this is the relationship that’s got heat. Whether it makes it past Labor Day or not, these are the men that get a Diva all hot and bothered.

Summer Import: Even though local men are just adorable, sometimes it’s nice to meet someone from another town or even another country, especially if they travel in on business every once in a while.

Blind Date: Ever meet someone at a party and then agree to go on a date with them later only to discover they aren’t nearly as cute as you remember? Yep, you’re on a Blind Date.

Duck and Cover: The maneuver where you’re out and about and you spot someone you’d rather not see so you basically bury yourself in a crowd so they can’t see you.  This is especially useful if you’re with your Summer Sometimes and your Summer Fling happens to walk in.

There is a new BlackBerry Twitter Client in town and I’m very excited!! Longtime Twitter Friend and Rockstar Coder, @Dossy has teamed up with BoyGenius to bring the world TweetGenius!!! I got set up with an account earlier today and I have been casually kicking it’s tires.

Be advised I am running it on my pearl and visually there are a few kinks since the app is programmed for a larger screen size then my little pearl, but overall functionality is working quite nicely

For one, I am in love with the icon. I think it looks really cute on my home screen…and as a girl cute is very important to me!

These little chat bubbles expand as you type and when you send the message the explode with a poof ! Again, rates high on the cuteness scale

The time line is clean and easy to scan which is important when you follow so many awesome people, like I do! (Props to @kspidel , @Banannie, @Bud_Caddell, @ChazFrench).

I haven’t tested all the features just yet, but I know you guys like to know about what’s hot & happening so who am I to hold you back? Check the TweetGenius Blog for the latest features and get your Download Here!! The app is priced at $9.99 but you can get it now at only $4.99 for a limited time.

Tweet Responsibly!

There is a woman hanging over the toilet in my parent’s guest bathroom. When I use it I see her reflection in the vanity mirror and think about all that her life has become.

She sits in a restaurant with a glass of wine and writing paper & pen. At times she appears to be waiting, others she is reflecting over what she has written or going to write. Deep in thought.

I would not want to have to face her head on like a guy does. She does NOT look impressed and it’s gotta be a bit of a kick in the ego to stand there with her staring at you. LOL

I wish I could tell you who’s painting this is. I want to say Renoir, but I am not sure.

If you’re on Twitter (these days who isn’t?) you would have had to be blind to not notice the uproar over some changes to @replies. I caught a bit of it Tuesday evening when a few friend posted links mentioning changes, but I didn’t stop to learn about what exactly was happening. By the time I went to turn off my Twitter nightlight all holly hashtag hell had broken lose and practically every Tweet was chanting #fixreplies.

Lucky me to have, what I consider, a very “in the know” and “on the pulse” friend list. I rely on my Tweeps to provide insight on what is happening in the world, social media and the internets in general. Since returning to a Corporate world of employment I’ve lost a lot of my networking & social time.

I’m still not entirely sure what the scope of the changes were that caused the revolt, but I get amusement out of watching my Tweeps rant & rave whenever the service changes or performs badly. Inevitably everyone feels the need to migrate to some other service, whether it be in search of a Twitter replacement or just to stick it to Twitter for jacking with us.

Over the course of the years I have followed suit with the migrations, acquiring new accounts on various Twitter like services. First it was Pounce, followed closely by Jaiku – both moves from what I can recall were based on massive Twitter service interruptions… and this was long before the days of that fancy lil Fail Whale. Then there was a bit of time where Twitter was kind of working, but many of us held on and adapted twitku – a Twitter/Jaiku hybrid.

It seemed like every few months we were jumping ship and running to some shiny new service to keep up with each other, I can’t even remember all the accounts I have out there!, but we always returned to Twitter (well most of us). There’s no denying that Twitter was the 1st of it’s kind and despite the bumps and grinds of becoming who they are today, they are the best at what they do.

So you can imagine when I saw what was happening Tues night my 1st thought was – Where are we going now? Seems like FriendFeed is the choice this time around, and has been quite a few times in the past. What cracks me up is if you look closely you will see that the majority of users are primarily aggregating their Twitters over! I’m getting a kick out of this… enough to inspire me to babble on about it here

So go on Twittervers! Hashtag it up & Stick it to the Bird!! He always welcomes his Tweeties back with open wings.

Ah, and I am happy to see @Biz’s recent post on the new plan of action on the way @replies are handled – Very much looking forward to kickin those tires. Hope they consider rolling it out to their beta group before public release solely for the fact that I’m in
