My Life With Twitter (So Far!)


Twitter.  Phew!  I had to learn everything about it!  I am a product of my environment- we still have and read hard cover books, and even check them out from the library on occasion.  I am so blessed to be a substitute teacher!  I walk into a room with the policies and procedures in place and the lesson plans on the desk.  I enjoyed visiting on Twitter about everything all the other teachers do in their classroom, but I think my presence in the lunchroom of a new school gives me a lot of the same.  Going to a new place nearly every day is a terrific challenge, and I learn something new every day and even take a few photos in the event that I would ever teach full time.

I enjoyed following Joan Rivers on Twitter!  She gives me a giggle nearly every time.  What a stress relief to be able to laugh for a second!  For instance, Joan Rivers‏@Joan_Rivers   ‘For Season 2, the cast of "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" wants a per-episode raise from 4,000 to 10,000. Absolutely! Pork rinds are expensive.’   Joan Rivers‏@Joan_Rivers  ‘ Dina Lohan's advice to Amanda Bynes’s parents is, "Just be around.” She probably should have added, “As well as sober and coherent.”’

 I don’t believe I will remain a Twitter user.  I have an addictive personality and have found myself spending way too many hours glued to my computer or phone.  I remind myself of that daughter in the funny commercial when the grown kid is talking about how boring her parents have become because they only have 5 friends online.  In reality, they are out enjoying their lives with their friends while she sits home on the computer.  That’s my plan.  Want to visit with me?  Meet me at the park bench!

  1. Nice post. Glad you gave Twitter a try. You may find Twitter a tool for you if you get back into teaching full time. The network will always be out there waiting for you!
