Code 10! Man Down Situation! Twitter EPIC FAIL!

Today should be the first day of my wonderful 4 day mini vacay. I should be enjoying the day, resting, relaxing, catching up with friends. But instead I am completely discombobulated. Every morning, before I even get out of bed, I update my Twitter. I wish a good day to all of my followers and the rest of the TwitterVerse. I catch up on all of the tweets I missed while I was sleeping. I look at the current trending topics and if necessary, add my own daily hashtag in hopes that it will become a trending topic.

I was saddened and confused to see that Twitter was down this morning. I wasn't sure if I should cry or peter pan off of my 3rd story balcony. Where were my friends? Where were my updates? In the words of Young Kanye (@twestfield) "Who would I share my random thoughts with?" Heaven forbid I actually pick up the phone and contact my "twiends". Who would LoL at my pointless observations? Who would share vids and news stories with me that would otherwise be lost in the land of interwebz? What ever shall I do?!?!

I am unable to move from this spot. It is almost as if someone killed 112 of my closest friends. This is surreal. I can not do anything without tweeting. Forget needing something tangible, I just need something visual. I'll even take a glimpse of the fail whale over a blank screen.

Twitter we need you. A few hours down has all of us lost and confused. Whatever shall we do?
