This Explains A Lot …

Okay, this explains a lot.

And here I just thought that twitter was the new dating marketing, albeit one with rather crass and not all that eloquent men.  Kept wondering why they could never quite follow through. Computer impotency or just clumsy digits?

Back to the Dating Pool Tech Advice

This back to school advice for parents from The Onion, also rings true for observing the behaviors of  potential suitors and scaring off the competition.  We are after all mammals and this is simply the new form of survival of the fittest.

Thanks for the heads up on these great tech dating tips Monica and memelabs!

Yorkton Film Festival Social Media Stalker

Well, it looks like Tris and Erica did their job as a whole tonne of people from the Yorkton Film Festival are cropping up on various social media platforms.  So, if like me, you care to stalk any of them (or as Erica put it in her PC terms, ‘connect with them’), here’s a list of those I’ve found so far.  Oh and if you know of others, drop a comment with them and I’ll add them to the list.

On Twitter:

Post Election Smiles

Couldn’t help myself – got pulled back in by some great post election tweets.  Here they are:

Tweeting My Love Life

Been enjoying a rather entertaining week on twitter.  Having fun with this form of Social Media and meeting many new faces in and outside the Van City scene.  A few twitterlious moments for me have been:

  • Getting to know @hummingbird604 better through his tweets
  • Meeting the dastardly @seeper76, who keeps me laughing.
  • Discovering that we have a following in Europe – thanks to @saabir – whom like a chivalrous European knight has been providing me with tunes to start my day off right.
  • An introduction to the musical stylings of @chrisblake

But what I’ve been finding funniest has been the number of tweeters, as of late, that have been taking a vested interest in my love life.  Apparently, I appear to be in of help.  Hell, I am 34 and single, after all.

  • @JuiceBoxRadio is giving me weekly advice on how to meet men in Van City.
  • One unnamed tweeter has told me I’m pretty and that he’d like to meet-up sometime soon. That was his first tweet me and no I haven’t met him.
  • @OnlineBootyCall has told me that it is okay to be single and just enjoy lots and lots of commitment free sex.
  • @DatingCoach is promising to teach me the secrets of dating men – from a man.
  • And as of this morning, @MyTweetheart is promising to broadcast my singledom to the tweetisphere and, of course, find me a Tweetheart.

So what’s a girl to do!?!  Well this girl, was in a bit of a whacky mood this morning and thought @MyTweetheart was far too funny.  So she tweeted, “Sure add me to the site.”  And they actually did.  Check it out – Females Seeking Males. Can just picture my Mom now not being sure whether to laugh or shake her head and say, “Where did I go wrong?”

So the moral of this story?  If you’re not on Twitter now, join me there and you too can delve more into my personal life.  I know – exciting, right? You don’t have to be embarrassed, most people can barely contain their excitement at the prospect of befriending me and delving into my oh so exciting personal life.

Kisses to all you sexy things,

Emme
