Sometimes I tweet instead of blog, because random (or not so random) phrases will come to mind, or a lyric from a song, or a saying that I was thinking about writing down later, or just plain complaints. All of them have to do with whatever I'm feeling at the time. I am so emotional that I barely understand anything but feelings. I don't understand how someone can make a decision without first feeling something about it. But that's me. I realize that plenty of people aren't like that. The thing is, I should probably put all of this energy into blogging or my screenplays or my journal. Or if I'm going to explode tweets everywhere, making a mess, I might as well copy some of them into my journal, or at least explain what each one of them means. So here's some tweet from the last week, with explanations:
Just walked back with five bags of groceries and I don't think I'm in good shape. #myshouldershurt. -->I hate grocery shopping. I wanted to stalk up so I didn't have to go again for the next two weeks. I guess I thought I could handle walking back with all of that.
True Grit 1969 is far better than this Coen Brothers - thing. I wish this younger generation could appreciate the beauty of the original.
6 Feb -->I don't think I have to explain this too much. Everyone I know likes the new True Grit. Even that father of mine who raised me on John Wayne. Not to say that I'm a John Wayne fan. But there's some nostalgia there.
I'm diggin' your laugh and I'm lovin' your quick wit. I even love it when you're fakin' it. #IckyThump 8 Feb --> The White Stripes broke up on February 2nd. Since then I've been having a marathon. I didn't particularly feel like the lyrics suggest at the moment toward any particular person but I would like to.
Getting an eerie feeling that I'm being watched or something.
8 Feb --> My Skype status is always set to online. Hardly ever are other people onlline unless I set up a time with them, but when they are online, I mistakenly think that they can hear me. Though I know they can't until we are on the phone.
@cliffy4all and not anymore. :/
8 Feb --> Was skyping, and was not anymore. Nadia and Cliff's internet sucks.
"I'm getting old, my skin's coming off, nothing makes any sense to me. Nothing makes any sense."
9 Feb --> I feel like Clementine half of the time. On this day I was angry at everything and I felt ugly and stupid.
I wouldn't raise my child inside the city anyway.
10 Feb --> yep. This is a lyric. Regina Spektor, "Boababs." But I really wouldn't. I used to think I would. But not after being here. They really would grow up too fast.
Reading through my old tweets. Why am I so dramatic? Why are there so many typos? #whereismymind 10 Feb --> I didn't like myself while reading them. I suddenly became terrified of becoming my mother.
I would write some more explaining these tweets but I'm dangerously teetering on the edge of becoming a narcissist.
Erin Elizabeth I relate to you about not understanding anything other than emotions. I want to copy and paste this entire entry into my own blog and let it portray Nadia. I know that I didn't tweet those, but I can relate to everything in those tweets. The only difference besides the fact that I am not in L.A. is that I love grocery shopping.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am not teetering on the edge of becoming a narcissist. I am a narcissist.
Nadj, I'm glad that you want to post this whole thing on your own blog. It makes me feel good because I often participate in others people's stuff/art so much so that I think they can express it better than I can.
ReplyDeleteI miss being able to relate to someone who is of such like mind. love you.
