Twitter Experiment

So here is something that I've come to accept about myself, for the most part I really don't like having conversations on the phone. Most of my conversations fall into two categories, either really short, or really long. The short conversations are usually with those people that I see on a regular basis and its short and to the point and I know its going to be like that. But then there are people that I havn't talked to in a while and I know a short conversation just isn't going to do, too much time has passed for a quick, "Hey whats up, gotta go." I just hate going into a conversation like that knowing that I'm going to leave it soon. But here is my dilemma, if I don't have a long time to talk to those people I'm not going to talk to them. And becuase I don't have much free time I want to spend that alone time just not talking to anyone. So either I dont have the time to talk or when I do I don't want to spend it talking to people. And heres why this bothers me. Becuase the people who are actually imporant in my life are the ones that I usually don't talk to for very often. So I feel worse and worse the longer I go without catching up but my dilemma still remains. So what to do about this? I need to find a way to keep in touch that isn't the phone. So here comes Twitter, and this blog.

One of the first things I learned about in college was AIM and Facebook. It was so extremely popular it was unreal, it was how we all communicated with each other. One of my favorite things of all times was the away messages on AIM. For one thing I had a tendency to post every little god damn event that was going on life day. People, especially my parents, really loved it. It let people know what I was up to and it was a way to tell my stories. But, those programs don't really work for my anymore. I don't know, it feels like I'm a little too old for them and I'm not in the same type of community who uses those anymore. But I still think that I can use these as a way to keep the people who I never talk to, but care about, up to date with my life.

My first blog

So I've never really been interseted in blogging or doing anything like it, but heres why I'm doing it. I have just come to accept the fact, that I don't like talking on the phone very much. And anyone who has known me for a long time knows this, especially my family. So what I hope to do is have a place to keep the ones I care about informed about whats going on in my life. I don't know who all is going to read this, but hopefully you enjoy.
