A few things

First of all I wanted to share this story with you: do you know Twitter? An application that so many people seem to use, but nobody so far was able to tell me the exact purpose of using it?

I use it too, but I'm still quite a bit unsure as to what to do with it :). So one day, I sat down and started browsing through profiles of people here in NJ, just to see if I can "meet" someone interesting and friend them, and I came across many interesting profiles, most of which were promoting something they do, or sell... *sigh*. And I added them, and kept on going about my social networking profiles, writing updates, responding to emails and messages, when BANG! Or, should I say - RING!

My cell phone rings, number unknown - I pick up and hear this: "Hi, my name is Drew, you just friended me on Twitter!". Imagine my shock :).

Long story short, we had a very nice conversation, I am having lunch with that person today - he's a local artist whose work inspires me. I'm very much looking forward to that. But the fact remains - I never expected to receive a real down to earth phone call from a real person, who I JUST friended on Twitter! I'm so glad there're people out there, who think outside the "what we ought to be doing", you know?

Summer seems to seep through the rainy moist sticky weather - here's a little peek into it:



And also - let this day or week bring miracles to you - life is full of opportunities and pleasant surprises!
