How Popular am I and other Random Notions

How Popular am I?

I followed Carissa to Twitter.com. Is this site for instant messages or maybe just a message board? I didn't take time to really check it out, Carissa has been begging so I'm trying to make her happy, since she has a 2nd foot surgery and having to move all a the same time. CARISSA...WE FEEL YOUR PAIN!

Anyway, I twittered. I don't know what I did, but I did it.

I thought that I was through with the popularity thing when High School ended...nope...twitter.com brought back smashing waves of memories of that dreaded popularity contest everyone competed in, in high school. You have to admit (since this is the blog world no one will hear you) that we were all just a little bit jealous of the most popular girls in school.....WELL NOT ME ANYMORE....NOPE, THANKS TO TWITTER I KNOW EXACTLY HOW POPULAR I AM.

When you sign into twitter...you can find and follow your friends...for a first timer its a little different....

I click find friends....

and this cute little pop up comes up and it says......

"IT MIGHT TAKE A BIT LONGER IF YOU ARE POPULAR"
I laughed. I figure this will pop away in a matter of seconds.

NOPE! I'M SO DANG POPULAR IT LOCKED UP MY COMPUTER.
Take that! (I really just think that my computer froze...but a girl can dream, right?)


OTHER RANDOM NOTIONS

You know that your kid has watched too much "HAIRSPRAY" the movie when you hear this comment while walking through the mall shopping...

"Wow! That's absolutely AFRO-TASTIC!" I stopped dead in my tracks. We were in the Turtle Creek Mall in mixed company. I say....(you all thought M & M) TAYLOR! You can not say that things are Afro-tastic. That's not nice. Queen Latifa says it in Hairspray, replies Taylor.

I tell her what it means and who it is poking fun at, and she is stunned. She had absolutely no idea that it could be considered racist coming from a white girl as she put it.

Dianne, Dianna, Carissa, and everyone else....Stop laughing, I can hear you. (okay, you can laugh just a little bit.)
