plez sez: i'm still a novice, so be gentle with me. but if you have a blog, you need to have twitter. i shouldn't have any problems coming up with something to blog about.

i won't be pulling these things down on my cell phone until i get an unlimited text message plan. from the short time i've been doing it, i can see how one's phone bill can grow astronomically!
