I finished my first draft of Immaterial and #amediting (how is it Twitter tags are seeping into my everyday thoughts and grammar?). I can only imagine what my communication will look like in a year or two. Probably something like this:
(Warning: If you don't speak Twitter, this will be gibberish)

Haha.... is it disturbing that I read that with no problem whatsoever? Yay! Now I know that I will be reading something awesome very soon! Hooray! #exclamationpointsareveryappropriatehere #dontquestionme
I always find myself trying to use tags in posts on Facebook... people there think there is something wrong with me.
Dear J.R. Johansson,
Welcome to my blog. Thanks for being a #newreader #stoppingby. Oh wait, is that you Jenn!? Your new moniker is kinda wiggin me out. #definitelynotaguy :)
I'm still new to the twitter tag phenomenon. I really need to figure this out. Maybe in September. Congrats on finishing. We are in the same boat because I just finished my last round of edits as well. Here's to the next step - Querying - ugh.
Total gibberish. Is there a class I can take to learn the Twitter language? If it's anything like german than there's no hope for me.
Congrats on the finish!
Ha, ha. Cute, Candice :)
lol And I know you're talking about #TheVoice in that letter because @adamlevine's hair did look amazing. :)
Says the #stillhappilymarriedmomwithahugecrush.
And yeah, like J.R. (what the--?) I read it perfectly which is really sad. :)
LOL! Awesome post! RT tinyrul.18263.fake.com @CandiceRulz
I'm see hashtags on Tumblr and Facebook, too. I hope I never see them in my students' essays, though. Some things seep into standard language when they're not supposed to.
Ha! I find myself using them on facebook too. :P #gladyouarebloggingagain #missedyou :D
