If I could Tweet during work....

Hey everyone!

This post is a deviation from our normal discussions, but it is summer, so what the heck. I am doing an internship this summer involving social networking and new media. It is a really great job and I love it, but it doesn't allow for me to tweet during the day. So today I just jotted a few notes when important or humorous events occurred as if I were really tweeting. A former boss of mine called this "Twitter 1.0."

Below are my insights from the day:
8:27 AM: It’s true that GenY is overdosing on technology, as demonstrated by me now using my desktop computer and my laptop simultaneously…

11:42 AM: 3 minute dance session in my cubicle with no music--a sign that I either need more work or someone to talk to.

11:56 AM: Just took a drink out of my huge water bottle and spilled water down my face, chest, and onto my pants…I am classy!

12:01 PM: Weight Watchers’ Smart Ones Fettucini Alfredo is in the microwave! Woo-hoo, its lunch time!

12:35 PM: Got complimented for my delicate handling of opening the garbage can (the kind with the foot pedal). Had to admit that it is because I tip over.

1:45 PM: My cube looks like my purse exploded in it, no wonder many coworkers avoid my space…Two computers, iPod, pictures, PAPERS, books, food

2:13 PM: Discovered Yammer.com and love it! I shared it with the other youngins here…Wonder how long until IT blocks it…

2:45 PM: Still think about my latest epic moment—used Yammer.com to tip fellow intern off to free food for the taking. :)

3:05 PM: Getting very sleepy…wishing I could take a nap for the next hour or so. I think its probably a bad idea, so I’ll get free food instead.

4:12 PM: Almost time to go home! Lots of errands to run this evening and a City Council meeting to get too…18 more minutes and counting…

With all that said, thank you for humoring me. Also, head over to my other blog to see me *hopefully* live-blog Beloit's City Council meeting tonight. You can find that at Only in Beloit (http://onlyinbeloit.blogspot.com/). Have a great night!

Thanks,
Chynna
