Thursday evening I was on Twitter and tweeted that I was looking for a job on Craigslist. The next morning I woke up and checked my email to find that I’d had a request for my resume during the night, so I sent it on, you never know right?

Well just a few hours later I went to lunch from my job and checked my email again to find that my resume showed exactly what my now employer was looking for so I called him and we started discussing what I had to offer and what he needed done for his business. Seems my skills are right in line with what the company needs so I was extended an offer.

THANK YOU TWITTER. For that alone, it was worth signing up for Twitter, which I’ve now been on for nearly a year. I’ve met tons of great people and more and more are joining daily, recently I’ve started following Christopher Walken, MC Hammer, Mark Cuban (a local hero), President Obama is also on Twitter, as is Britney Spears, Ashton Kutcher and a host of other people you can find on www.wefollow.com or you can look for people close to your location at www.nearbytweets.com, you can even have someone suggest people for you to follow if you follow Mr. Tweet.

Twitter is a great forum for discussion, information and what’s going on all over the world generally. It’s definitely worth your while to check it out. I just sent my 4,000th tweet.

I love web 2.0. Wanna win the new iPhone? Follow @transat1 on Twitter, there are ten to give away!

J and I are still up, listening to music while I rip our cd’s onto my new laptop.

We’ve been reminiscing through some of our favorites and I’m learning what I missed while I was going through my shitkicker phase. LOL. Only listening to country and shunning everything else. Then I heard about Queensryche, which i thought was cool but then I heard Metallica and Queensryche was put into the lame category, in my mind anyways. Metallica took over.

Growing up I was exposed to different kinds of music. My dad has always been a rocker, so I heard rock music all through my young years, and my mom was into country so I was exposed to both. J’s mom only listened to country, so he hates it now which is sad, because some of the country music out there is really great.

Right now, Cold as Ice by Foreigner is playing. We’ve listened to about 8 tracks of Aerosmith – one of my favorites, in fact, one of the other tabs open now in my browser is the Aerosmith shop page .

I actually have a scarf that Steven Tyler once had on a mic during a concert. Very cool piece of history. Sadly, it was not I that went, it was a friend, but she generously gave it to me and now I cherish it.

I bought a laptop on Tuesday night at Fry’s, a nice Lenovo (IBM) and am now loading music onto it. Not the cd’s I’m not a big fan of though. I have quite the musical library. Spanning from country to rock to rap to metal. I’m diverse in my music tastes.

Now it’s Foreigner’s “Head Games”, we love Foreigner.
