Random Thoughts

My website - www.ElinorRobin.com - was redone (and went live New Years Eve 2009/2010) onto a blog platform so this blog has become somewhat obsolete. However, I am not ready to cash in just yet - I want to keep this blog alive a bit longer even though I am not sure what I want to write about. While I think about it, here is an "anthology" of my twitter posts.
