Like Whoa.

I don't get twitter.

Why do people feel so compelled to share every detail of their life? The same thing goes on in facebook land too. Are people really that self-concerned that they feel that EVERYONE needs to know their every move and every thought...

"just ordered pizza for our Scrubs marathon"

"worked from 9-8 today, going in from 11-7 tonight and then back to the clinic for 9-6... it's gonna be a loooooong day!"

"got my first nursing pay cheque today!!! Orientation 8-12...Lunch with 8C girls, gym with Bethany...Paper #2 and MY SISTERS KEEPER!!!! Busy!!!"

"Holy smokes tomorrow will be busy - hospital in the morning for _____'s line maintenance, bloodwork and iron infusion, then AAC consult in the afternoon, _____ is grading for his orange belt in Kempo in the evening and then we have to pick up Papa from the airport. I have a feeling that sleep will be a welcome friend by tomorrow night"

What the hell is that??? And more importantly - who has time for that?? I can't even remember what I did 20 minutes ago let alone be able to repeat the entire day to let everyone on my friends list know step by step my EVERY WAKING MOMENT.

"hey everyone - got off work at 7am, went to superstore to buy some blue cheese and candy, took the car to the autobody, got a ride home from some weird dude, called my dad to tell him about a kick ass sale on diet coke, slept till 2pm, got up, made muffins but forgot the baking powder, walked to yoga in the rain, did yoga -omg there was a girl talking in the class, walked home, talked to my mum, ate a kick ass salad, cleaned my room, put away my laundry, watched some tv and oh my god now i am here... hoooooooolllllla!

Today my cousin actually wrote a facebook status for every major town or landmark she passed on the way between London and Ottawa.

"passing the third service centre, on our way!"
"just went by another dead raccoon, almost there!"

What the hell is that?? Does she actually think that someone cares?

Blog about your favourite movie, tell me about a song you heard that rocks, share an amazing accomplishment - DO not tell me what you ate for breakfast, how long you have been procrastinating, what you're buying at the grocery store or how many times your dog has peed on the carpet.

Good grief.
