And that’s why I love twitter.
MY BOOKS:
THINGS I LOVE TODAY: THESE SOCKS
Bizarre thoughts from author Jenny Lawson – Like Mother Teresa, only better.
ALL THE COOL KIDS ADVERTISE HERE:
I fucking love these people & not just because they support my wine-slushee habit:

Advice I Needed Yesterday:Unsolicited advice from an unreliable source.
candidkay: Journalist, single mother of two. Taking the journey, bumps and all . . . you will laugh or cry in the passenger seat. Promise.
Blog Con Queso: Cheese, robots, margarita jello shots. The essentials.
RomComDojo: I am often comically pissed off about things.
Hyperbole and a Half Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem and Other Things That Happened.

Lori Duff Writes: “Please, for the love of all that is good and holy, don’t read our Mom’s blog. It just encourages her.” ~ Lori’s kids
Tinplate Studios: Your one stop shop for all your Cabinet of Curiosity needs. Sideshow Oddities, Travesties in Teacups, Steampunk Rayguns, Disturbing Timepieces and more.
Josh Across the Universe: Life is a journey and I lost the map. But it’s okay, I have a fork.

Awkwardly Alive & Pleasantly Peculiar: I’m not stealthy. You’ll see me coming.

David Thorne: So fucking awesome it hurts.
Misfit Marjorie: Conversations from a leather and fetishwear shop. It’s basically a mommyblog with less spanking. Oh, and Marjorie is a dude. This is totally not a mommyblog.
The Hot Bid: Intriguing and delightful things coming up at auction. New posts every Monday and Thursday.
Something Went Wrong With The Stirrups: I’d like to move to a remote island of kind people, golf carts, yurts and maybe one cell phone tower.

The Corso Papers: Where random thought go to become words.

Twitter is amazing. I know a lot of people complain that it’s now dominated by commercial companies wanting to make money but it’s still a real space for real people to make an enduring connection. I love my Twitter friends.

Some people feel normal until they go to Twitter. Others feel normal because they’re on Twitter.

Ahhhh, so that’s the trick to keeping the clowns at bay. Feed them something other than ropes. Doll brains, perhaps? What else do clowns eat? I wouldn’t know because I don’t let any of them ANYWHERE NEAR ME!!!

I love Twitter, too. I love that I found you there (not that you were missing, or anything, or, um.). I love that you’ve found us, your tribe, there, and that we’ve found each other there. Also, I love that I’m no longer missing, I guess.
Ennyhoo. Thanks for getting closer to your “normal” and letting us know, and also for letting us know when life feels shit for you, like your xanax post from what, yesterday? Please stick with us, for as long as you can. We need you, both in times of loving Twitter and in times of feeling total shit.
