Music dump.

If this dosent move your soul, then you don't have one. I miss him. So so much. *sigh*

I can't sleep. This is a disaster in waiting.

Music purge over. I normally try and put more uh. Solid stuff up but. It just felt right.

This is enought to make me miss Trent Reznor in advance. And pray that he continues with music in some form.

I can't embed this for some reason. Man! This is one of the best songs out there right now. major lazer - hold the line

Coldpay covering Michael Jackson... I was supposed to be at this show, but I decided that I really hate Coldplay more than life.

I dont think I need to say anything more than. Tori Amos - Seattle. Most amazing show ever.

When it comes to terms with the internet in some situations I've always wondered, how much is too much? We are all so digitally in twined with one another. It's like the scene with Drew Barrymore in "He's Just Not That Into You" where she lists off all the networking sites and electronic options this man she is "seeing" (fucking? who knows I barely watched the movie!) has to reject her. A lot of us communicate via Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, Email, Texting, Twitter and LinkedIn. Of course every once and awhile we'll meet face to face or have a random phone conversation. But, are we really relying on technology to have relationships too much?

This is why I asked. When I joined Twitter (aka Mecca) last year I was of course jumping on the bandwagon to see what it was about. I tried it out.. and at first I couldn't understand what to @ someone was and OMFG why do these people care. In the end I gave up. For some reason I logged back in again and started actually attempting to use it. For someone who has had personal websites and you know, even a LiveJournal (remember those?) I was not going to let this thing called Twitter get the best of me.

The damnest thing happened. I met people. People that I know in real life now. People that make me laugh when I need it, people I make laugh when they need it and honestly, people who I share a real connection with and some days don't know what I did without.

Now, here is where the whole over connected thing comes into play. My significant other is someone who doesn’t really do the whole social networking thing. It doesn’t make sense to him and you know, I respect that. To him it's almost an OCD like behavior to have my phone with me at all times and be checking Twitter. Which really, to me it's like I'm just checking in on my peeps. A lot of whom I know outside of Twitter now and even have lunch with on a regular basis. Of course I've wound down my usage pretty significantly and attempt to not check it (as) often when we are with one another. A Twitter friend calls time like this bubble time, I call it torture.

So. I use Twitter a lot at work and I've really tried to explain it to people. But. Do I want them to know? Do I want them to see my endless whining and complaining about whatever or about how I'm going to get pho? Eff no. There seems to be this invisible line that is drawn between the Twitter and Non-Twitter people in my life (Obviously the Twitter people are better, and low matainance) and I've even found myself telling people on Twitter more stuff than people than I know and speak with on a regular basis. Is there something wrong with this? I think not. Especially since I hate most people! Just kidding.... KINDA.

To me it's just amazing that something as small as a 140 semi-paragraph can build friendships that are omg! Meaningful. We can manage to get each other though some tough times... SO DAMMIT WE ARE GONNA SAVE #IRAN.
