September Madness: http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/consumerist/2008/09/sepmad.jpg
Anyone else in Twitterland follow Dancing With The Stars? I wouldn’t, but Lisa is very into the show.
Ordered a textbook for class. Dropped class. Canceled book order. Book just arrived. No charge. Confusion and amusement ensue!
Just left the dentist’s office. A little sore, but always important to keep it up. Oral hygiene is important, people. :D
I seem to hear a lot of atheists use Christ, Jesus, etc as exclamations of shock. Why call out a name that’s anathema to your belief system?

http://bit.ly/DontPanic I realize it’s about investing, but srsly, I think it’s probably good general advice. Economy sucks, don’t panic yet
Y’know, at times I considered moving from the local credit union to a bigger bank. However, for some reason I’m totally okay with the CU now
I know everyone’s seen this video already, but I love the image below the video. http://bit.ly/FailinPalin
Heading to Subway for some lunch. Nom nom nom.
Ran an instance on the WoW beta yesterday. My damage output as a tank was over doubled. It was absolutely amazingly fun. Can’t wait for 3.0!
Lisa just finished her first song on Rock Band 2 expert guitar. Four stars even. I’m so proud.
In the east mountains, at my nephew’s soccer game. These 4yo kids are funny. No game at ALL. :D
I can’t believe I’m actually excited to watch a political debate tonight.
Only problem is I catch myself singing the uncensored lyrics. Kinda makes me laugh.
I almost hate to admit how much I enjoy the local rap station’s old school lunch hour. Seriously, I like being in the car to hear it loud :D
Confession: I’m seriously tempted to watch Survivor tonight, but only because it’s the first one in high definition. I’m a sucker for HD. :D
One of the best xkcd strips ever: http://xkcd.com/481/
http://bit.ly/2008wikicomp I would implore all of my friends: Do some research. Be more educated as to who you’re voting for, and why.
My last tweet was exactly 140 characters and got cropped. What’s up, Twitter? Hosing my twooshes? That’s not cool.
Damn it feels good to be a coda. Well, coder. I can’t turn coder into coda like gangster goes into gangsta, as I sound like musical notation
PETA urges Ben & Jerry’s to use Human Milk http://bit.ly/CamlR I really wish I were joking. This is just… so odd. “The breast …
I’m up way too late. Night all.
I’m so agitated over something right now that I want to tweet about that I nearly sent out an F-bomb over a public tweet, very atypical. …
http://bit.ly/4CREm8 Almost bought an iPhone this weekend. I was excited to code for it. No more. I love my Mac, but this? Screw you, Apple.
In other news, I greatly anticipate the release of T-Mobile’s G1 w/ Android, and hope that I can buy one and use on AT&T with unlock …
Sometimes I think I may be the only person I know who seriously has a ridiculous amount of fun while coding stuff.
Realization: I really just don’t enjoy software development using any of the .NET languages - I like more direct control over rendered HTML.
Surfing through some random images on my web server, I found a guest strip I did for @Harmony77 — that comic needs to come back someday. :D
I made a 3D Sierpinski Triangle! http://bit.ly/BA_s3d to view WARNING WARNING JAVA APPLET Sorry, that’s what Processing exports, no control.
Our DVR is set to record five hours of TV tonight: Two of Dancing with the Stars and three of Heroes - haven’t watched that much TV in ages.
I may have to make Rock Band 2 expert drums my new workout program. I’m sweating up a storm, but having a total blast.
I love how a good night’s sleep can act as a reset. It’s a great morning, ahead of what should be a great day. May your day be great too! :)
Currently 82/84 songs complete on Rock Band 2 Expert Guitar. These last two are ridiculously hard nightmares. Great songs, but insanely hard
I think I need a break from the internet. Turning off Twitter for awhile.
The new WebKit JavaScript engine is nearly twice as fast as Chrome. My jaw is on the damn floor. This is simply stunning. OMG. Floored.
Wow, my day went from awesome to crap in an immensely short amount of time. I’m glad it’s a half-day Friday.
Shine (wherein by shine, I mean the World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King expansion Collector’s Edition pre-order) get!
I’m only sending this tweet out to help @madmup demonstrate Twitter to a class. Hello students! Listen well to your teacher, for he is wise!
One of my best friends who lives in DC is currently in town and will be staying with us for a couple of days. It should be fun, lots of RB2.
I just sent a direct message to someone that, if I had accidentally tweeted it, I think I’d die of embarrassment/shame/laughter. Good times.
Sometimes I get nostalgic about my World of Warcraft experiences from a couple of years ago. Odd to be nostalgic over experiences in a game.
Thanks to @Harmony77 I’m now surfing favtape.com - have pulled up music from high school years, and am filled with a strong mix of emotions.
I’m not normally a comic books guy, but this looks absolutely amazing: http://www.warrenellis.com/?p=6451
It bugs the crap out of me when people say “How’s it goin’?” as a greeting rather than a genuine question - just say “Hi” or something else.
I respectfully bite my tongue at sharing political snippets as much as I can. Sometimes, it’s almost too much. I’ll continue to be quiet. :)
http://bit.ly/2bDe5l — stat contained within: 13 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube EVERY MINUTE. That’s over 2 years of video per day.
I get to pick a free book sold by http://packtpub.com/books/ — but I have no idea which one to pick. So many good looking books — choices!
