So what did you do last night?

I went out to dinner with my awesome sister-in-law, had a great dinner at King Eider's Pub, and walked back to my house in the pouring rain. Luckily it was a warm summer rain, complete with lightning and thunder and the occasional flash of headlights.

Now it's just the rain coming down outside my window, steady, soft, accompanied by the distant rumble of thunder and the occasional thunk of an acorn dropping hard onto the deck. Makes me glad I'm not sitting out there without a helmet or something.

Anyway. Here's a nice pic my son sent me from where he was working on Yellow Tail Rd. in either Pemaquid or New Harbor, he wasn't sure.

Hope you're doing something fun :)

should I?

I know you might find this surprising, but I finally got my first cell phone yesterday. I know, I was probably the last person in the entire world who didn't have one, but budget considerations forced to me to remain cell-less - until yesterday. I got my taxes back on friday and decided to splurge a tiny bit. But because I'm trying to spend my money more wisely than I have in the past I did not go all out and get a blackberry or an iphone, which is what I would've liked. Instead I went to my local - forgive me - walmart and got straight talk for a mere $30/mo and a little samsung phone, nothing too fancy but it does have the qwerty keyboard to make texting easy. Sadly no aps, no surfing the web, no checking on my blog or yours, altho I can access the web in limited fashion. But at least I'm connected, right? Anyway, the question is, should I tweet? I hadn't before because, hey, no cell. Now that I can, however, I wonder if I really want to. Do you tweet? Is it a time suck? Or have you found it helpful? And if so, how?
