Month: January 2009

• 19:25 Working overtime on a Friday night! Yet somehow, I’m in a merry mood. Now musing over what decadent dinner I shall order in. Food fo’ free! #
• 19:54 The Onion: Obama Disappointed Cabinet Failed To Understand His Reference To ‘Savage Sword Of Conan’ #24 tinyurl.com/dy5sho #
• 22:10 WHAT. I am not logged on AIM, yet people are IMing me. Being alone at work at 10pm on a Friday night is scary. #
• 23:29 Mwaha! 11:30, and I’m going home! Come to me, Battlestar Galactica and Psych… #

• 07:55 Yay, pretty snow! Far preferable to the "wintry mix to rain" Weather.com promised yesterday. Freezing rain is my least favourite weather. #
• 07:56 Whoops, missed my 1500th tweet! Here’s 1505. #
• 10:28 @fredhicks If it makes you feel any better, the forums are down. *sigh* #
• 10:29 @xiehicks Ugh, take care! Sucks that the cold hit you both at the same time. Get well soon! #
• 12:19 Urgh. Why am I’m only allowed to go out to eat when it’s gross and rainy and/or slushy outside? I miss the summer lunches in Bryant Park! #
• 15:52 Getting to google "hedgehog" for work totally makes up for those times I’ve had to google "obese man" and "shirtless child" and worse. #
• 17:26 Hedgehoooooooog! Baby hedgehogs! There has to be a place in the city where I can play with baby hedgehogs. #
• 17:55 Woe! Finished my audiobook (Bujold’s "Brothers in Arms") with 1 1/2 hrs of work to go. I may actually have to interact with my coworkers. #
• 17:56 @morganc14 Only if you rub the spines the wrong way. Their bellies are soft! #
• 18:06 @mkcho73 Why would hedgehogs be illegal? We should recruit a bunch of spirited teens from an 80s musical to show legislators they’re wrong. #
• 21:03 @feliciaday I will track down anyone that uses the word "Tweeple" and punch them in the jaw. #
• 21:34 @morganc14 Tweedleydeedleydeet! #

• 17:40 @xiehicks It’s snowing in D.C.? Nice! I wonder what the weather is like in NY. Sad to realize I haven’t seen outside in 8 1/2 hours. #
• 17:42 Yeah, I’m going to like moving to the back room. With windows! And natural light! It looks out on the side of another building, but… sun! #
• 19:57 @sinspired Some look out onto streets. The building it looks out on is like six feet away. :D But it does get some natural light! #

• 09:33 OW. Steam is hot, guys. #
• 09:37 Blagojevich considered Oprah for Senate; compares self to Mandela, King, and Gandhi. Life imitates The Onion. tinyurl.com/cxskp3 #
• 12:07 @sinspired Your lolcatz experience makes me think of my relationship with TV Tropes. Except I need *weeks* of my life back. #

• 12:48 @xiehicks Thank you so much for introducing my tastebuds to the wonders of Vermont Grade B maple syrup! Wonder where I can find it in NY… #
• 12:52 @redone17 I think the word you are looking for here is "floccinaucinihilipilification." #
• 13:17 @mkcho73 Vegetable stock is a legendary concert for legume bands. #
• 16:39 Wow. I never thought the sentence "The cream pie of justice flies one way." belonged anywhere but in a Douglas Adams novel. Vorkosigan ftw! #

• 15:16 oh, wow. I just got a Facebook friend request from one of my church youth group leaders. The last time I saw him, I was in eighth grade! #
• 15:17 Well, I ran into him at the Harry Potter midnight release party for book 6, but other than that, eighth grade! #
• 15:18 @mkcho73 Try reloading? If it hasn’t started in a minute or two, generally something messed up. #

• 08:21 Obama’s speeches a bestseller in Japan–as an aid to learning English. Can you imagine this happening under Bush? tinyurl.com/cberrt #
• 17:37 OBAMA OVERTURNED THE GLOBAL GAG RULE! Man, the past few days have been like Christmas in January. Finally, my government agrees with me! #
• 17:39 Why has Twitter done away with the "in reply to" thing? How are we supposed to know what folks are responding to? #
• 18:39 @jimmyaquino Starbuck is a werewolf! Tigh’s favourite color is polka-dot! #
• 18:46 Ooh, @xiehicks posted a picture of where we were in the Inauguration crowd. Look for the red dot! is.gd/h04T #
• 22:28 @beyondabsurdity Looking great, Qui! Can’t wait to get a big group of friends together to see "Soul Samurai." #
• 22:37 Oh, Battlestar Galactica. Only you could make oral hygeine angsty and symbolic. #

• 07:56 @mkcho73 Aren’t "quotation marks" used for skepticism/mockery? *Asteriskes* are used for emphasis. These "grammarians" are *dumb*. #
• 11:44 And just like that, Obama issues executive order to close Guantanamo Bay prison. It’s starting, people. tinyurl.com/b4lpcf #
• 12:16 Sweet! My plastic bottle recycling program has spread to three different locations in the office! Together, we shall recycle THE WORLD! #
• 14:58 Coworker’s ringtone is the same as my alarm clock. Keep expecting to wake up and realize my workday was a dream, and I need to start over. #
• 15:01 @morganc14 It’s okay, indulgences are on sale two for the price of one at Wal-Mart. You’re not a Lutheran, are you? #
• 22:03 Whee, Burn Notice is back! #
• 22:27 Got a ticket to @viennateng’s Cafe Vivaldi benefit on Feb 15th. Anyone else interested in going? tinyurl.com/ah2dmo #
• 23:00 …Why are BSG ads still asking "Who is the final cylon?" Wasn’t that answered last week? #
• 23:12 Ooh! Suddenly remembered that @viennateng’s new album comes out April 7th, the same day as Jim Butcher and Pat Rothfuss’ new books. RAPTURE! #
• 23:24 @sinspired You must endure! Misery and pain build character. Has Harry taught you nothing? (Besides, sample chapters in 2 1/2 wks! Yay!) #
• 23:25 @gypsyjr OH MY GOD. I loved that show! "Under The Umbrella Tree" was the first show I ever taped! #
• 00:18 @boymonster She would be hotter if she’d eat a burger or something. She wore a bikini in tonight’s episode, and you could count her ribs. #

• 07:05 On the metro, far calmer than yesterday! Heading to Chinatown to catch the bus back to NY. Too early to brain good. #
• 07:45 MWAHA. Buses running crazy late–7:15 still hadn’t left by 7:45–but I managed to get on it, rather than waiting in the cold for the 8:15! #
• 08:04 Do I watch ‘Repo!’ musical on my laptop or take a nap? Do I slaughter a village or bake cookies for orphans? #
• 09:26 Huh. Must’ve snowed in Baltimore. River next to bus stop is snowy and half-frozen. Wonder what NY will be like. #
• 16:49 Ow ow OW! Just tried to stretch out my sore shoulders, but somehow I made the knots quadruple in size. #
• 16:51 (Back in NY, btw. Despite leaving 15 minutes early, I arrived 15 minutes later than schedule predicted. Still, at work with time to spare. #
• 17:38 My brain hurts. But Obama is President, so it’s okay. #
• 18:38 Seriously, Zappos. I returned those shoes over a week ago. How long until you receive them? I want mah moneys! #
• 18:40 This is one blemish on what has been UNPARALLELED BRILLIANCE from the Zappos customer service department, btw. LOVE ZAPPOS. But moneys=good. #
• 18:44 @boymonster You should make the six projects FIGHT EACH OTHER for your attention! #
• 20:23 @Zappos_Service WOW. Zappos truly has the greatest customer service in WORLD HISTORY. #
• 20:23 You guys saw my tweet, found my account, called me, and solved the issue over the phone in under two minutes! I CANNOT GUSH ENOUGH! #

• 11:09 Hand and toe warmers are the greatest invention of all mankind. #
• 11:39 Bush getting booed. Christie and I restrained ourselves of of dignity to office, singing only a respectful "na na hey hey hey goodbye." #
• 12:14 HAIL PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA. #
• 13:18 Deb observes, "The sun went away when Obama left." #
• 13:21 Oh! Deb stands corrected! The sun is shining only on the Capitol building! We are amused. #
• 17:57 Getting out of city as nightmarish as getting in. All Metro stations admitting people at a slow trickle. Took 3 hrs to get back to Fred’s! #
• 17:59 Heard about Sens. Kennedy and Bird on way home. My thoughts are with them and their families. #
• 22:23 I feel so lame, being this tired at 10:20, but… zzzzzz. #
