Twitter, Celebrities and Party Rooms ...

For the longest time I resisted following a bunch of celebrities on Twitter. But, I’ve noticed that a lot of them actually are tweeting about things other than self-promotion. And many of them actually reply to their fans and people who ask them questions or whatever. Which is pretty cool actually.

So, I decided that since I needed to organize my Tweetgrid anyway, I would add a bunch of celebs to it. The cool thing about Tweetgrid is that I can add people to it without actually following them on Twitter. Which is kind of stalkerish now that I think about it. Good point. But, oh well.

Basically now Tweetgrid 1 is for all the “regular” people. Blog buddies, Blog Talk Radio buddies and the people I’ve “met” through Twitter. And, Tweetgrid 2 is for media, sports, politics, porn and celebs. Unfortunately Kobe Tai isn’t on Twitter.

Have I ever mentioned that I went to college with Koba Tai? Oh yeah, hundreds of times. I keep forgetting.

Anywho, where was I? The only “celebs” I’ve replied to on Twitter have been a couple of media people and sports media like Stephen A Smith and Bill Simmons. Stephen and Bill haven’t responded to me yet, but I’m sure they will sometime. The rest of the real celebrities I haven’t replied to. Except I did ReTweet something from Alyssa Milano. She’s cool. She tweets about baseball a lot.

And it’s totally okay for me to find Alyssa hot cause I’m only four years older than her. So I wasn’t an adult when she was growing up and, um, developing on “Who’s the Boss.” Unfortunately I can’t say the same thing for Jennifer Love Hewitt and Lacey Chabert cause they were still just kids and I was already 26 when “Party of Five” started. So it always makes me feel dirty when I think of them as hot. A feeling that you probably know I enjoy. Neve Campbell is okay though, she’s Allysa’s age.

Okay, I think I got off topic for a bit there.

So basically that’s how I spent my Friday night. Refining my Tweetgrid, monitoring Facebook for status updates, watching NBA playoffs and exchanging emails with a women who was in the early stages of labor.

And you thought I had no life.


Oh, I did want to mention that I added Lily Allen to my Tweetgrid.

That’s not really important for you to know, I just wanted Karen to roll her eyes at me. Don’t deny it Karen, you know you did! Hehe

Karen is awesome. We pretty much disagree on every single thing. Politics to sports to celebrities to TV shows to whatever. We are on the opposite side of almost everything. I wonder if we lived in the same place we would end up in screaming matches over this stuff. Probably, but since we in the bloggerhood we don’t argue. Much. Hehe


So anyway, it’s now Saturday morning when I’m typing this up. I’m trying to get ahead on some blog posts and not find myself sitting here, staring at the computer screen trying to come up with something to post each night.

While I’m typing this I’m watching this new show on HGTV called “Man Land.” Basically it’s a show where they show off different “man caves” that guys have set up in their homes. Some of them are pretty cool too. Maybe not as cool as Matt-Man’s seasonal holiday tree and Chinese lanterns, but still pretty cool.

I don’t know what I would do if I could build a man cave. Or had enough room here to create one. I think it would probably be full of cardboard standees of Princess Leia and Queen Amidala. And maybe some Rat Pack posters on the wall. And maybe a few action figures around. A poker table would be okay, but I don’t really know how to play poker. Unless someone wants to teach me? But, a blackjack table would be cool. I do enjoy playing blackjack. And a pool table. I’ve always wanted a pool table. And if you’re going to have all that stuff there needs to be a bar. A stocked bar. With some tequila, bourbon, Scotch, gin, vodka, brandy, various mixes and beer. Lots of beer. Maybe a keg so I could have beer on tap for anyone who came over to hang out and watch the game or Gilmore Girls. Which reminds me. A HUGE LCD HDTV would be mandatory too. And what the hell. A stripper pole too. And maybe a smog machine. Oh and a pizza oven. And a microwave for the popcorn.

I don’t really know how I got from celebrities on twitter to man caves and party rooms, but oh well. What would be in your party room?
