I took a break after creating count 41 of my 44-count child molestation/rape case verdict forms to take a peek at Barney Stinson’s blog (see my blogroll on right to link in the future). “How I Met Your Mother” just started back up and I’d forgotten to see if the blog were updated as well.

My eyes and heart swelled as I saw all the Barney awesomeness sitting there, one post to correspond with each of the 5 episodes that have been aired this season. I’m behind! I devoured greedily, reliving each episode, chuckling at Barney’s witticism, sarcasm, and sexism, and toward the end, I saw to my dismay the biggest temptation toward something I’d been holding out against. Barney now TWEETS. I’ve thus far refused to get on Twitter, saying I’m not gonna be involved in yet another social networking addiction, and certainly not going to be leashed to it via my omnipresent cell phone. Thankfully, though, I discovered that I can click on Barney’s Twitter page and read all his tweets on a webpage without ever subscribing to the service itself. I caught up quickly, swallowing the jealousy over seeing other people actually interact with Barney via Twitter (he even hit on some women! I wanna be one of them!).

For now, I can stay strong. I can turn away from participating in Twitter. But only because I have 6 more sexual penetration verdict forms to create.
