10 signs you are a Twitter addict

Okay, 10 signs that I am a Twitter addict okay. Are you happy now? I admit that I have a problem. Sheesh.

Sign number 1:You have trouble thinking of a number 1 because you had to log on to twitter one more time before you got into your post, sigh.

Sign number 2: You often attempt to see what’s up on Twitter real quick while doing dishes, even though this often results in a wet IPod.

Sign number 3: You try to be more productive so you delete your Twitter app. Yesterday I deleted my Twitter app and redownloaded it 5 times.

I never claimed to be a healthy minded person, people.

Sign number four:You ask hubs to please watch the kids so you can take a bath but once behind locked doors you tweet away for 20 minutes and end up taking a 5 minute shower instead. (That’s more eco friendly any right?)

Sign number 5:You log on because you remembered that you forgot to retweet someone, share a link, thank someone for a retweet or wish someone a Happy Birthday…only to get caught up in your time line with out doing so.

This obviously means logging back on 3 more times before you remember.

Sign number 6:Your children use the term “you know what I’m saying?” a lot because when you’re not tweeting online apparently you are tweeting IRL (in real life).

Sign number 7:You sleep with your IPod under your pillow, you say that’s for the alarm but your IPod is on mute so your late night tweeting doesn’t wake anyone up.

Do I really have to keep going? This is embarrassing….

Sign number 8:  You not only know what a lurker is now…you are one. And not a very good one, your compulsive retweeting always gives you away.

Sign number 9:Your on the phone with your mom and during a lapse in the convo she asks if you are tweeting.

Your mom who doesn’t even own a computer now knows what Twitter is!

Sign number 10: You came up with ten signs that you have a twitter problem way,way too easily.

I know this looks bad but I am taking steps to get better.

I’ve hardly been on Twitter at all today. I won’t lie, It’s been rough and I may have paced around a bit talking nonsense for a good part of my morning.

Thankfully there is always Facebook and Tumblr to take the edge off a little bit….

  1. Ver’ true. I have a habit of leaning over the back of my dining room chair so I can check twitter because the kids go nuts if I actually try to sit down. Then I find myself doing it when the kids aren’t even around.

      Ha, I know about the sitting down, my kids go crazy most of the time if i try to do that. Thats why I usually tweet on my IPod- much easier and much more hard for me to resist.

    I always give away that I’m lurking with my dang RT’s.

    I’ll RT and then go “dang! Now they’ll know I”m here!”

    Funny post, lady.

    And 15 mins only ALWAYS becomes 35.

    Hmm I fit at least 8 out of ten of those signs. Do they have a TA tweeters anonymous? Not to be confused with T and A of course.
