I had a moment tonight that I thought I'd share.
I was living social media.
Yes, LIVING it.
I was dancing around in my living room to music while taking pictures of my dog while a cake baked in the oven.
Nothing special you say? Well what if I told you:
The music I was listening to came from the Cheap Easy Show by Michael Nolan, a friend I've come to know on Twitter. Hot damn that was a lot of fun! I'm going to download previous podcasts to my iPod for when boredom strikes at work.
I was taking pictures with my new external flash because my blog friend Andy of Yellow Wood Photography sent me an email a little over a year ago asking why I wasn't selling my pictures. And now he's put in motion my quest to become a photographer, which is why I broke down and finally bought an external flash. Woo baby. I can't believe I didn't own one until today!
And the cake? The cake is from a Robin at Bumblebeeblog.com - Buttermilk Chocolate Chip cake (aka Yum Yum Cake). I read the recipe last October and was reminded of it yesterday. (I got the chance to meet Robin at Spring Fling in Chicago in May and she's just as lovely in person as she is online.)
A confluence of social media right there in my living room and kitchen.
And yes, I did have the cake for dinner.
These are the moments, folks.

Sounds like a great evening. Love your pup-pup!
I LOVE your dog - she/he's just like my Stella-dog. Sheps are just the best.
What a beautiful dance partner! The cake sounds yummy, I'll have to take a look...after I'm off my diet!
Please tell me that you had ice cream with the cake. :)
Just goes to show you what can happen when Twitter is down...
Nice blog. Keep on good work. Hope you add me, too.

I just love doggy pictures! That is a wonderful picture of Jake! I still remember the picture you sent me of Jake trampling your pumpkin patch for my 'dogblog' a couple of years ago.
Does the dog have a Twitter account? That's the only extra social media-ish thing I can think of.
love it...living social media, dancing with your dog, cake for dinner. Great pic of your pooch!
OH, I love your "moment".
I am so not a twitter-er and this just shows how everybody definitely needs to get on their social media game forreal. Get recognized!
