......THAT is the question.
I've got a twitter account; which means that my sudden bursts of creative genius can be quickly posted online. No longer do I have to sit and remember what my awesome sentences which had been rolling in my head while driving home were. I don't have to read through my crap and spot the typos and other necessary edits. Comments about my thoughts are easily seen and easily responded to. No more do I have to worry about length. I am limited to 140 characters. And my attention deficit is totally enabled. Never more do I have to see a rant through. My utter randomness is embraced. Thank you twitter!
But it's not the same. My writing suffers. I have not sat through and fully expressed a thought or an emotion in a minute. There are so many things I want out there. And not in short bursts of 2-3 sentences. But rather organised paragraphs. Each one with a main idea and a point I need to get across.
I also miss reading. Sitting in front of my laptop and reading a good post from one of my blogger fam. Reading through comments. Laughing. Identifying with other people.
Blogging and commenting on blogs presents opinions and ideas in a way twitter never can. With a blog you can elaborate (just like I'm doing now) whether in your piece or in the comments you leave on a post. Opposing ideas are better expressed with a blog.
Yes, twitter is awesome. My wit and sarcasm are having the time of their lives. As is my ratchety ghetto side. But my intellect suffers. A lot. Cuz ghetto Incoherent doesn't stay in her cage no mo'.
Ugh! There's another annoying thing about blogging: coming up with a title! And y'all know I need to be all clever and what not with. ...bleh I'm lazy. Take what you get.
