Incidental Encounter

* walks along the intertubes and suddenly knocks into the blog*

I’m so sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going. Didn’t see you there.

Oh, it’s you. I totally forgot about our meetings. You know, the ones where I fill you with new stories and photos and all that. Yeah, life’s been sort of busy with school and trying to find a job for the summer and, uh, Twitter.

Yes, Twitter. I’m cheating on you with Twitter. It’s the short little messages; you don’t have to write anything at all. Just 140 characters and you’re done. But my friends are there, too. They write back a couple times the day and their writing comes right to me via TweeetDeck. I don’t have to use Google Reader anymore. Google Reader that likes to break all the time.

I feel like a better person for using Twitter. Not in the save-the-world sense, but the pretensious sense.Yeah, I’m one of those. Blogs are so last year. Twitter’s quickly becoming obsolete, too – I blame Oprah and Ashton Kutcher and, especially, CNN.

But I’m coming back to you. I’m not giving up my Twitter relationship, it’s too shiny and new and fun. But I promise to write more often. I won’t say it will be once a week but I will say that it’s going to be at least once a month. And not just about knitting, anymore.

Yes, there is more to my life than knitting. There’s Matt and school and politics and my horrible taste in television.

Did I mention we got a new car? And that I rocked my final OR project? And that I still don’t understand why a diagonalized matrix so special? No? Well, I’ll save that for another day. You probably have somewhere else to be, anyway.  I’ll just leave you with probably my favorite photo from our Italy trip.

Goodbye. For now.

About angelanoel

I grew up in South Florida, fell in love with a guy who took me to California, then returned to the East Cost in late 2008. I’m a full-time engineering student constantly yearning for more time to take photos, travel, pet my kitties and, of course, knit.
