My Life on Twitter

Okay, so I started another Twitter account to promote my new personal blog. I went to the Books A Million and bought two books The Complete Idiot's Guide To Social Media Marketing and Blogging For Dummies. This time, I was determined to start my new blog out successfully. This time, I was determined to use Twitter successfully. Let me tell you, I was having a blast. I was writing blog posts that I like. I was adding pictures and figuring out what to do to make my blog more attractive. I was having fun UNTIL...I had to promote it.

Argh! Both books told me to link my blog to Facebook. That was easy enough. Both books told me to enter my blog into blog directories (still working on that one). And, last but not least, both books told me to promote myself on Twitter.

DUM!DUM!DUM!

I don't have a good relationship with Twitter. I still don't get Twitter. Twitter drives me mad.

BREATH!

I pulled up my big girl drawers and started a new Twitter account specifically for that blog. Check this out, I even put my REAL PICTURE up. Yikes. I never do that. Hey! I could care less whether people know me or not, but I did it.

Twitter Update



So, what has my first week on Twitter been like?


Hmm. It's kinda...interesting.


Okay, how can I put it?


It's kinda like when I was a little kid and I had imaginary friends that I'd talk to. You know what I'm talking about. You had them too. That's what Twitter is like, so far. I'm tweeting and tweeting and I'm almost positive that I'm talking to, well, no one. Lol. Now this was cool when I was seven, but now, uh, I realize when I talking to myself.


This is how I feel after I tweet.


Tweet... tweet ...tweet. No wait! It's more like CRICKETS...CRICKETS...CRICKETS! HELLO, IS ANYONE HOME?!


Ahhh, one is truly the loneliest number in the world. LOL.


The second thing that I've realized is that Twitter really is ALL ABOUT THE CELEBRITIES! Now, I'll keep it one hundred, when I signed up, that was the first thing that I did was look for my favorite A-Z celebs. That's right. I'm a groupie. But, hear me out. Who else would I want to follow? I don't give to snickers about what Joe Blow is doing, but I really do NEED to know when NeNe Leakes of The Real Housewives of Atlanta will be on the next Celebrity Apprentice. I know, I'm a nerd girl.


LOL.


But, I will say this, I do have 4 followers! It's very sad. One's a classmate. Another is a friend of mine and the other two are people I don't know. How'd that happen? Well, naturally, the classmate and friend were  freebies, but the other two were random. I went to my Twitter page and it said that I had two more followers!

Honestly, I got a little excited. Hehehe. "I have followers! I have followers!"


But, wait!


Now, there's pressure! Now, I have to be...EXCITING! Now, I have to pretend that I have a life! Now, I have to pretend that I don't take naps when I get home. Now, I have to pretend that I do more than eat, sleep and...erm...pray all day. Yeah, right. Never that, but, I do have to make myself worthy of being followed...right?


I mean really. I refuse to be the person that tweets my every single move.


"Hey tweeties, I just ate."
"Hey tweeties, I just digested."
"Hey tweeties, I just burped."


OMGeezee. THE PRESSURE!


Stay tuned.
