Jen is:staring at the carpet.

Lately I've become part of the mass of sheeple that herds themselves into Facebook day in and day out to check out my friends' status updates.I used to not care what my friends were doing every minute of the day- but now!!it's so!!!exciting!!!One of them just went to the grocery store!!!Omg- ME TOO!!! Another one just cleaned her kitchen! What the what?! I just did that today! See, there are some people that only update when it's I'mthekingoftheworld (ala Leo Dicaprio) exciting. They'll post things like "Just bought a new car!!" or "Just gave birth!" (To which my question then becomes, just WHERE is your computer at this point?) Then there's what the mass of sheeple, myself included, will do. We post things like "I'm eating pizza right now!!!" or "I'm clipping my toenails!!" or "I'm eating pizza AND clipping my toenails!!" I would never actually CALL any of my friends to give them this exciting information, but oh I will just post the heck out of it on a status update! because what if they DON'T know what I'm doing? Maybe none of us should have window coverings anymore. Isn't that the best kind of status update right there? Look!!I'm walking into my kitchen naked and balancing a bowl of cereal on my...well, just look!

I have a theory that music has something to do with it. The other day, while listening to the radio, I heard a song, that sounded more like a Twitter update than a song. It was catchy, don't get me wrong, but I couldn't help but wonder if it was considered song writing if you just talk to music. It was Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" It starts out:
I've had a little bit too much
All of the people start to rush
(Start to rush by)

A dizzy twister dance
Can't find my drink or man
Where are my keys, I lost my phone


Ok, so right about where she says "Where's my keys, I lost my phone" I gave an incredibly confused look to my radio. Did she just sing that she lost her keys and can't find her phone? I've HAD that experience!!! I've DONE that!! Can I sing too? Maybe I AM A SONGWRITER!!! Ok, my song would go something like this:

Just cleaned the cat litter
where's the Scrubbing Bubbles
I need a diet pepsi
then I'll get bloated
So I'll just have water
Did you check the mail?


I think it would be a hit. Ok so THEN Lady Gaga tells us MORE about her exciting life! She goes on to say:

Wish I could shut my playboy mouth
How'd I turn my shirt inside out?
(Inside out right)

Well, I've had this experience. I HAVE put on my shirt inside out, but I was never in public, and I didn't ASK anyone how it got that way- I guess I was able to deduce that I had indeed put my shirt on inside out. And then I changed it. Would I use this as a status update? "Jen wants to know how her shirt got inside out." My friends on facebook would then post things in response such as "Hooker!"

I guess it's better if you sing it though.
