Tweeted to by a Semi-Famous Band

With the announcement of the lineup for the upcoming Twilight Concert Series, my mind turned to bands I need to see before I die. A couple of them will be coming to the series, as I've always wanted to see Explosions in the Sky and Bright Eyes.

My all time favorite band is Everclear. I was raised on 90's Rock and they were the epitome of everything I loved about it. They are far past the glory days they had back then, but they still tour around (mostly in California & Oregon). The lead singer, Art Alexakis, is getting old and has a new band with him, so I feel I'm running out of time to be able see them live.

In my nostalgic despair, I sought them out on twitter and said this:


Later today, I received a tweet back. It's not even a big deal. If you remember, just a couple weeks ago Judd Apatow tweeted to me. I guess celebrities just love me ***ARROGANCE***

A smiley face at the end would have made you sound less annoyed, but I'll take it :)

Now, Everclear doesn't have a whole lot of followers, and not even a verified check next to their account.. but I'm pretty sure it's them..

If not, I still have Judd Apatow as my claim to fame!

I'm beginning to realize how anti-climactic and self-serving this post is... TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

If the World Ends Today (Will you be saved?)

Apparently the Rapture is happening today.
Not this Rapture..


For those of you who don't know what the Rapture is, a couple of things happen.

1. The righteous will ascend into the air to meet the Lord / be captured in Abraham's bosom (yes, that's a good thing)

2. The wicked will be left to Earth to deal with the apocalypse, in which they will burn.

Now of course, don't stress too much. There's way too much grey area to decide whether or not people are wicked or righteous. So I've made some very general guidelines to help you figure out whether you will be chilling in a bosom or burning in the dirt. If you fall anywhere in this great area, I think you're okay.




If you have this bumper sticker,  I think you're overconfident
You're Righteous If:
1. You're generally nice
2. You have generally good intentions
3. You say "Thank You" when appropriate

Don't worry about all the other mumbo-jumbo going around, I think just about everyone I've met meets those requirements.

See You in the Bosom!

Retweeted by a Famous Person

Today will go down in history, my friends.
I am supremely stoked about what just happened.

On May 6, I tweeted this:
Yes, there's a typo - I meant to say "come on"
I was about 45% sure there was a chance it could happen.
just not so soon..

Well, Last night I saw Bridesmaids, which literally was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.
So naturally, as a Twitter enthusiast does, I tweeted to Judd Apatow (the producer - also director of Knocked Up, Funny People, 40 Year Old Virgin) to tell him what I thought:


This morning, as my niece woke me up at 9:30 (2 hours earlier than I was planning to wake up), I checked my Twitter, and was surprised to find this:


My goal of the summer has been reached! sheesh, what am I going to do with the rest of my summer...
but yeah, I responded with this:


 

I don't know if he'll notice this tweet, but even if he doesn't, I still feel like we're really good friends now. Hey Judd, if you're reading my blog now, I'll star in any future bro-mance project you have coming up.

Anyway, this blog post is to let you know that dreams can come true. Who knows? Maybe by the end of this summer, I will have retweets from Justin Bieber, Jonah Hill, & Charlie Sheen.
