Famous Tweets

I don't get Twitter. 
I have had mine for several months and still don't understand why people want to "follow" a bunch of strangers and "Tweet" back to them. Who cares what they have to say when you don't even know them?

Now that I think about this, it seems like what I do on Blogger. Psh...wait a minute...we are blogging FRIENDS! Not strangers! : ) Ok, I feel better...

Anyways, I use Twitter to follow certain celebrities and to see what they are up to because lets face it, their lives are more interesting than ours.

I started following Jef from last seasons, The Bachelorette, a month or so ago because I thought he was adorable and that he and Emily would last forever. Ok, not really. 
Yesterday I replied to one of his tweets and actually got a reply back! Imagine my surprise when I got a notification saying, " @jefholm has replied...". I was grinning from ear to ear. It was really pathetic. 


 Ok, that's my cool Twitter story. 
I'd like to say we had a cool conversation but in actuality I replied back, "'Atta boy!" and that was it. 

Do you guys use Twitter? Do you like it? If so, can you explain to me why you like it, maybe I am missing out on something! 

Happy almost Friday!

  4. Hi Whitney!! That is so cool, and I know the feeling (sort of) I don't know if you watch Duck Dynasty, but I'm a big fan. I got to meet them last weekend and I tagged John Luke in a picture and he started following my Instagram account...neat feeling for sure!!

  5. I am SO GLAD I am not the only one who doesn't get Twitter. Mostly I am following other bloggers right now. I am trying to "get" it still.

  7. LOL! I still don't really get twitter. But... I generally use it just to connect with other bloggers. So more than anything, it's just another branch of blogging.

  8. My friends and I have gotten some responses over the years from random celebrities and I think that is about the coolest part of twitter... Before twitter when would you ever have any communication with someone famous?!
