Tanned, Rested and Ready

Oh hello, poopies!
No, Citizen Mom hasn't abandoned you, in fact I'm just back from a few days at the Shore and ready to settle into the summer. Too much news has happened to try to re-cap or snark on it all, but if you've been following my Twitter stream you know where my head's been at, as it were. If it seemed, for a while, that Twitter was killing my blog, it was half my own doing. The instant gratification of social media is addicting in its convenience. And it's been fascinating to watch the hemorrhagic growth of Twitter in the two years I've been using it. 
I'm also fascinated by social media's impact on journalism, though I'm one of those people who thinks it's still way too early to do anything but observe, participate and make reasoned guesses. All these pronouncements make my head hurt.
Right now, I'm lining up things to write about this week (got an idea, suggestion, invitation? citizenmom (at) gmail.com), wondering what to cook for dinner and warming up my blogging muscles with some good old-fashioned blogbuzzdancepop. Mangia!

Passion Pit, "The Reeling." They're at the Sweat Lodge, er, First Unitarian Church on Aug. 15.
