Twitter, Facebook , Hockey, and Beer

Am I a Twitter-stalker?

I feel like a total stalker when I 'follow' someone on Twitter - whether they are a friend, colleague, or just generally cool person - and they do not follow me back. I think this makes me an unwilling twitter-stalker.

At least on Facebook I can 'lurk' on someone's profile...but they have to make me a friend first. I don't feel quite as creepy when checking out someone's status updates, pictures of their family barbecue, and adding their cell phone number to my BlackBerry.

On that note...if you post your cell phone number on the internet ANYWHERE, please do not complain via your status updates about how you received a telemarketing call on said cell phone. Let's be a little more careful with our personal information, people!

I am happily writing this after getting some inspiration today from my friend Amy, who has a very fun and well-written blog titled: The Petite Filet

I warn you...After reading her blog, you will want a snack. I just had a bowl of cereal...it's late and I don't want to eat too much before bed. Although what time I hit the hay all depends on how late the Boston Bruins vs. Carolina Hurricanes Overtime lasts.

They are in Game 7 of their Eastern Conference SemiFinal playoff series...winner moves on. The Detroit Redwings (my favorite team since I met Gordy Howe when I was 9 years old) triumphed over the Anaheim Ducks tonight with a 4-3 Game 7 victory in their Western Conference SemiFinal game.

Either way, I will enjoy a delicious Yuengling Light Lager...which is not available in New England. Luckily, my fiance's brother's girlfriend (got that?) goes to Penn State. When she came home for her summer break from school, she brought us 8 cases of my favorite beer. I am very excited to have another....RIGHT NOW.
