Apparently 2013 wasn’t quite the total zero that my reflex memory says it was. Because when I went to tally some of my tangible creative accomplishments, I came up with all the stuff below….

#Countdownto40 – Age 12
(This is continuing my “Countdown to 40” series of posts, which I introduced a couple days ago.) When I was 12… …I took the SATs for the first time. Why was I taking the SATs in grade 7, you ask? There’s a program called CTY (Center for Talented Youth), run by Johns Hopkins University. It’s […]
#Countdownto40: Age 11
I’ve been doing a series of tweets for the past couple days, counting down (or up, technically) to my 40th birthday on August 20th. I’ve been using the hashtag #Countdownto40 and posting some tidbits about my life in the years leading up to now. I started with age 9 a couple days ago, and then […]
Valley Girl in 82 Tweets
Last night I “live-tweeted” the movie Valley Girl (1983), starring Nicolas Cage and Deborah Foreman, as I watched it in full for the first time (on DVD). I really enjoyed the movie, and had fun tweeting along with it. Here’s what came out, unedited: 22:34:51 Watching “Valley Girl”. I know, I’m like, such a fad […]

I have somehow opened up a channel of clairvoyance to the world of show business
It would be outrageous to claim that I have somehow opened up a channel of clairvoyance to the world of show business. So I’m not going to claim that. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. Consider this: On January 12, actor Josh Malina was bemoaning his career woes on Twitter (a recurring theme for […]
My Twitter Accounts
I have a pretty absurd amount of Twitter accounts at this point. Most of them are dormant–accounts I started tentatively, in association with a project that I have planned (or that is nominally underway). Having dealt ad nauseam with the frustration of searching for domain names and finding them taken, I have become pretty aggressive […]
New job title: Reince Priebus joke curator (?!?)
In an extremely unexpected turn of events, I have launched a site dedicated to jokes about the new Republican National Committee chairman with the funny name, Reince Priebus. The site is called (surprise!) ReincePriebusJokes.com. It’s mostly based off of tweets that I have skimmed off of the Internet – some 250+ jokes have been re-tweeted […]

My Favorite Tweets on Twitter
I have to say, living alone for a very long time has made me really, really funny. To me. –Tweeted by me, Sept. 5, 2009 It’s finally come time for me to admit something. It’s been out there in plain sight; people who cared to look would have immediately seen my dark and disturbing “secret”. […]
My Follow-or-Not Criteria
When I decide whether or not to follow someone on Twitter, I always visit their profile page–even if I already know I’m going to follow them because of a tweet they made, or their bio blurb, or a recommendation. I’m following around 1500 people now. At a rough guess, 500 of those might be people […]
The Cast of "Community" on Twitter
It didn’t seem super-easy to find a simple list of the Twitter accounts for the cast members of NBC’s “Community”, and since I was already following them all, I took a moment to make a Twitter “List” featuring them. You can follow it here: Tweets from the Cast of Community (@FreelanceLance/cast-of-community). The accounts of the […]
