May 7, 2011

I know we haven’t had a midnight movie in a couple weeks and I promise next Friday to screen the long-awaited “Fugitive Girls,” but I’ve got a big weekend lined up with plans at night and a ton of shit to do each day, so tonight’s going to be a bit of a quickity, blickity blog.

I’ve been on Twitter for a couple years now, but never really got into it until the last couple weeks. Now I’m having a lot of fun on there and wasting way too much time on it. I always promote my blog on there, but I also try to put some funny stuff on there. And it’s a real challenge because you’ve only got 140 characters to work with. And so now, I present, some of my favorite tweets. (Note: When you see the @symbol and someone else’s Twitter name, that means I’m responding to their tweet, the # symbol is called a hashtag and it’s a reference as to what you’re tweeting about.)

My Apartment @12:31 am
Chelsea

I was planning on going to Chinatown tonight and wander around and take some photos and maybe go to a bar or something, but those plans have changed. My night turned to shit at work and I’m getting out of here a little later than usual. Plus I have a headache. And it’s freezing outside. And why yes, I would like some ice with my whine, please and thank you! Anyway, I think I’ll do something from home tonight and what I’ve decided is to put up some late night tweets from Twitter. But first I have to get home.

I only live 14 blocks from work and most nights I walk home, but fuck it, I feel like shit so I'm cabbing it home. It's just a six dollar ride and with a dollar tip it's seven bucks. Money well spent on a night like this.

And baboom, here we are home sweet home! I've had that Mothers of Invention poster at every place I've ever lived. My brother Jim gave it to me for my 17th birthday. If only that poster could talk...well, I wouldn't really want to hear the stories.

An obligatory mirror shot of the top of my head over my Beatles butcher block album.

And here's my good friend Mr. Refrigerator which houses...

My even better friend, Mr. Beer!

It's freezing in here, time to light this thing up.

Poof! Fire!

Okay, let's see what's happening in Twitterville.

Good idea! I'm sure that's never been done before!

Kaiczynski Meet MacheDimance. I think the two of you will live and tweet happily ever after.

What, leave your room?

Wow, all the news channels must be pissed that you got the exclusive on that!

No, that's someone in serious need of a real life.

Now this guy knows how to tweet! Brief and to the point!

I had a low floater earlier today, but I flushed the toilet and it was history.

I love Jesus_M_Christ. Always first-class tweets!

And speaking of first-class tweets, our very own resident artist, "Boris" never fails to amuse on Twitter and facebook. Good one, Daddio!

I've seen the future Charlie Sheen Goddess and it is SHEILIA_MAC420. Get ready to be a winner, Sheila!

Speaking of Charlie, here's his last tweet of the evening, #WINNING! Well, he's lost a show he made almost two million an episode, his kids and wife, so I'm not sure exactly what he's winning, but what the hell, let's check in with one of his Goddesses.

And here she is, one half of the Charlie Sheen Goddess team, Bree Olson. A classy lady indeed! In fact this tweet puts the ass back in class! Goodnight everybody and see you tomorrow after dark!

Bonus Photos!

Since we've had posts about hot dogs and food carts, MAD commenter and Leaf Girl Blogger, Kari, sent in a couple of pictures of a trip from a trip she took to New York and a hot dog cart where her and her traveling troupe stopped for a dog.

Here's Kari biting into a dog in all it's ketchup glory!

And here's some of Kari's fellow travelers. I don't recognize the location, but I think it might be midtown. Thanks for the photos, Kari!
