I just felt like posting something so that this isn’t completely a ghost site. In the background, I have the Chemical Brothers going loud, strong, and proud. Once again, I will make this post directly in WerdPress and probably won’t spell check or edit for grammar. I like to live dangerous. 2 girls, 1 draft.

I finally saw Maab briefly re-surface on Twitter. She’s my long-lost sister… who I flirt with… Yeah, that’s kinda weird. But she’s awesome! Maab and I seem to have this odd spiritual connection. There’s been many times when I’ve had this odd sense of deja vu about her and it seems to be mutual. That’s one of the more interesting things about Twitter. I’ve made a connection with someone half a world away. She’s been there for me lately in a way that a real friend would. I had recently started to date yet another “bad girl” and Maab was there to grab me by the collar before I could plunge too deep down the rabbit hole. Although we are far apart and may never meet in real life, I know she’s a real friend. Plus, she’s funny, witty, and entertaining. I can’t help but smile when I think of her drinking gin and wrangling her kids.

In the background, I’m listening to the Chemical Brothers, Come With Us. I haven’t listened to this CD in some time. I don’t remember it being quite this good. Ambient tracks layered over big beats. The textures are subtle. It’s easy to see how I might have missed some of the more clever nuances of this recording in the past. I’m not sure when Come With Us was released but I know I bought it the first week it came out.

I’ve been flirting again online with my fellow Twitter’rs. Exceptionally fun flirts have been brendanb, yvonner, and of course, lissa_angeline. I’m sure that I’ve flirted with more people on Twitter so far this week but, those 3 are my current ranking favorites… Sorry Ed. (But you are always in my thoughts.)

brendanb has a blog called SmackFoo… OMG, I’m looking at the Chemical Brothers website–even though I don’t ingest Em Dee Em Eh–their site is making me peak. lissa_angeline’s blog is called Swamp Water Debutante and is a lot of fun to read. I like that lissa_angeline is real, honest, and fun. I appreciate her rawness and integrity. Someday I will muster the courage to make the request for the keys to unlock the protected entries. Until then, I enjoy reading about her life and her passion for knitting.

I’m distracted again from posting… Two songs stand out from the rest; My Elastic Eye and The Test. The entire CD though is fantastic.

Let’s see, what else is going on in the Twitterwood? Oh, I haven’t really mentioned this yet. As a select few know–very select, like 2 people–I’ve had an e-crush on one of teh internets famous. As it turns out, she made the bold move of contacting me by DM and requesting my AIM SN. Of course I went into a complete panic but I DM’d her back and she contacted me. I could not have been more flattered. While I still get nervous when ever we chat, I’m doing much better and can now actually type complete sentences when we’re conversing in ASCII.

markdavidson: Dontcha hate it when you are IM’ing with someone, get nervous and then your IQ drops 40 points? Fantastic.

markdavidson: Never mind the fact that my business partner–partner up until a month ago–is an on-air TV personality/host. Or that it’s my job… Silly me!

markdavidson: This has only happened 2 times before. Once when I was at an art opening and Milla Jovovich made prolonged-eye contact and then flashed me her smile…

markdavidson: And the other was when I was at Mardi Arquette’s house and she asked me if I wanted to talk to her daughter as she shoved the phone in my hand.

markdavidson At the time, her daughter was in my then favorite movie, True Romance and before I could process what was happening, there she was, speaking to me from France. Her beautiful voice resonating in my ear.

markdavidson Those are the only 2 times I can remember becoming retarded in the presence of woman. So, if you read this, please feel complimented.

markdavidson And now I’m being reduced to helping an ex-girlfriend pick out color patterns for her house. I feel completely emasculated.

[The above stories are actually true. They are not a part of the alter-ego posting. These are my actual experiences]

At the moment I am laughing while reading about lissa_angeline discussing her piercing issues. I hope some of you check out her blog or perhaps give her a follow on Twitter. She’s a lot of fun and has a great spirit.

I’ve recently started following leahjones. She is of my people. Oh, iTunes shifted over to Dig Your Own Hole. Piku makes me want to play with glo-sticks and watch the sun rise over my drapes. leahjones is pretty cool and I suspect I’ll be writing more about my interactions with her soon. It’s funny how I will instantly have a soft spot for someone on Twitter. I liked leahjones right off the bat. Leah’s blog is Accidentally Jewish. Leah’s also accidentally awake right now.

I keep meaning to make time to cyber-stalk Melissa Maples but I’ve been busy. I love Melissa Maples. She teases me about being a fan club of one. In truth, Melissa has fans world-wide. Not only is she cool but she is also a master of bazaar commentary.

01000101 was kind enough to send me a Seesmic invite. I’m sure I’ll have plenty to report about Twitter Stars live on video once I get settled in. Fiz is awesome. She and her fiancee Kosso were among the first people I started following on Twitter. Initially, I think it was because of their avatars… which quite accurately communicate their sense of humor and reflect their passion for technology and each other.

I also caved in and began following zaftig-beauty irinaslutsky. My goodness, just look at those delicious curves! I adore her web show Geek Entertainment. If you haven’t seen it before, give a couple of the videos on her site a click. She’s very funny. irinaslutsky has geek culture and humor completely dialed-in. I am almost willing to forgive the fact that she isn’t following me on Twitter… yet. Plus, she seems to be friends with Sizemore and that’s a big plus in my book.

Okay, I think that’s all the Twitterwoodland gossip I can muster for the evening. I think as I continue to write, I’ll loosen up a little. It’s always easier to write for someone else than it is to write for myself. LISTEN TO THIS NOW!

On a closing note, I’ve finally given up on The Bitter One. This makes me sad. I’ve tried to contact her several times but at a certain point, it just becomes too creepy to continue. I will miss her. Not only was she my best friend for many years, but she also bridges my past with my present. I haz sadnez. There’s a gaping hole left in my life that for 2 decades had been filled with her stabbing wit, throbbing sarcasm, and feisty demeanor… Well, at least she adopted N2. Somebody had to.

This concludes another Twitter Stars post. I’m Mark Davidson, reporting live from Twitterwood.
