I have to admit that sometimes, making my thoughts less than 140 characters can be a bit of a challenge, which is probably a sign that I have a lot to say and maybe should come back to this blog as an outlet.At any rate, click here to check out my new Twitter feed.

I wonder who the next person will be to go apeshit crazy on national TV and then feign innocence. I swear. Serena was so upbeat during her press conference, I half expected her to say "Oooooohhhhh.
