Twitter, Tumblr and @bliccy
mr-7:
I have spent a significant period of time harrassing and following some truely lovely people on twitter (and then tumblr as it becomes more of my guilty pleasure) there are many of you really there are.
I know that a lot of people make a great deal of assumptions about others based on their tweets or tumblr postings etc, often filling in the blanks with their own ideas then getting hacked off when they are disproven because they post something they disagree with. (I’m using the word ‘they’ a lot, sorry if it’s in anyway confusing I’m slightly tipsy and may have to edit this later…) anyway…..
I’d like to think it is still possible to form perfectly valid and REAL friendships across the ether so to speak. Some people may suggest that I only open my mouth to change feet. @bliccy has been unfortunate enough to actually realise this first hand and frequently.
There aren’t enough nice things in the world I could say or do to describe her so I will muddle along with gorgeous, intelligent, hilarious, kind and lovely. These aren’t throwaway comments either, I genuinely believe from extended conversations by twitter replies, DMs, and IM conversations that I have actually got to know Nicole quite well, indeed we’ve probably shared more random facts than I have with some of the friends I see everyday. I’d go so far as to say she’s filled a void in my life that I never even knew was there before. And I can’t thank her enough for forcing me to watch ‘arrested development’ and always making me smile even when I was at a low. Something that would have not been possible without Twitter/tumblr.
So basically Nicole, I think your bloody awesome and am proud to consider you a friend. And for anyone reading this that isn’t following her then maybe you should. Unless you’re a pervert of course, because obviously then I’ll have to visit your house with a hammer, possibly whilst you’re out…
Anyway thank you t’interweb for making this possible.
Now where did I leave that shovel?
I love Miles. Mostly because he’s British. It’s the whole accent thing.
This one time he accidentally typed “cumming” because of his iPhone.
(I adore him.)
