- Twitter has made me aware of the small yet profound, funny, striking thoughts that rattle around in my head and were lost before.
- If I think a thought and don’t tweet it, did I actually think the thought at all?
- Are my thoughts irrelevant without Twitter?
- Feature phone batteries last FOREVER. Ok, not forever probably, but I left my phone on over night not plugged in, and I woke up this morning and it still had a full charge. Huh.
- Without Twitter, the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is kiss my husband and engage in conversation.
- Without Twitter, I’m not nearly as popular. My Rogue had exactly 0 alerts when I woke up this morning.
- Without Twitter and tech news feeds, the Blackberry is actually a pretty decent data only device. I now have work email, gtalk, work and home calendars synced up to it, work and personal contacts, and Google Voice.
- My friends are already asking if I can get back onto Twitter, they are tired of incessant text messages about random thoughts.
- Without Twitter, when I put the baby to bed, instead of reading through my timeline, I stare at her, smell her, and think about how blessed I am.
I am smart enough to know that even with Twitter in my life, these things could also be true - that it is a choice to place Twitter at the center of my connected world. I also know this about myself. Never. Ever. Ever. Buy a bag of Oreos. Why? Because I eat the entire bag. Same goes for chips, chocolate fudge covered cookies, Thin Mints, any kind of candy, ice cream... you get the picture.
