Last night a friend of mine challenged me about how I’m using Twitter, which is not much. He’s really enjoying connecting with people via Twitter. And I have to admit that as a writer I love the challenge of trying to communicate something in less than 140 characters. I ramble on this site all the time, so the thought of being creatively confined is pretty interesting to me. And since I’m not writing 97 second with God right now and doing much on the prodigal Jon site I have a bunch of ideas that don’t really have a home. (The fastest way to make Stuff Christians Like suck is for me to cram a bunch of my random thoughts that have nothing to do with the site on it. And connecting it all to this site would add to the clutter. Promise.) So expect more Twitter and more Facebook from me in the coming months. And if you don’t use either, please just know that you are missing gems like this:
From my Twitter post this morning at 6:00AM
I can’t prove this but I think the more precisely you plan your day and schedule, the greater chance your daughter throws up in her hair.
From my Facebook status:
I can’t tell if “17 again” is referring to how old Zac Efron’s character is in his new movie or the number of times they’ve made a film where an adult is turned into a kid and gets to “do life all over again.” Long live “Big.” Shimmy, shimmy coco pop. Shimmy, shimmy rock.
From my Facebook status:
Care Bears are to My Little Pony as the Generals are to the Harlem Globetrotters. My daughter acknowledges their existence but the Ponies are on a completely different level than the bears could ever hope for.
From my Facebook status:
When someone tells you “I just want the best for you” what they really mean is “I just want my personal definition of the best for you.”
Follow me on Facebook or Twitter if you want in on the upcoming cornucopia of words. If not, I promise I’ll pray for you.
