Max’s suggestion/barely disguised insult/critique of my blog and face book writing —

Out of the blue, while I’m putting his clean clothes away on the shelves in his walk-in closet, Max said, “You should get a Twitter account.”

I said, “Because there’s a word limit…thereby keeping my statements/essays/ramblings brief?”

Clearly surprised that I read his tone of voice and the silent message in his simple statement, Max said, “Yes…exactly!”
