You have to go twisted...

Your program should call reactor.run() once and everything you need
your program to do should be started off from twisted callbacks (eg
timer callbacks or deferred objects).

To get your program to do something immediately after it is started,
use reactor.callLater() before calling reactor.run().

You can't mix and match programming styles with twisted - it is all
asynchronous callbacks or nothing in my experience!  That takes a bit
of getting your head round at first.
