Tweetin’ while I’m eatin’ lunch. That’s like, what you’re supposed to do, right? (Bean burrito, tasty.)
It’s amazing how gout and a 2-hr long cable install that was 2 hours late can totally just ruin a day.
I hate you, gout. Today is not a good day for being unable to walk long distances. :(
Awesome RT @supersloth i used to use variable names ‘boner’, ‘boner1’, etc. until there was a very public ‘boner cannot be defined’ error D:
I think I’m seriously considering making a second Twitter account, locked down and private, where I can feel a bit more free to rant.
On the other hand, private or not, once something is on the ‘net, it’s on the ‘net forever, so… maybe not. Just - frustrating day.
Reading code and seeing two mutually exclusive if-conditionals where an if-else would have sufficed makes me sad.
Said code was not my code, but that of a peer who’s been coding for at least 6-7 years.
A friend just sent me an IM saying “Swallow on it”. If he wasn’t playing with Win7 voice command, I’d be disturbed.
I’m listening to a cover of My Humps by Alanis Morissette. This is amusing, to say the least. I’m way behind on @Coverville, catching up.
The addition of “from Yahoo” to the Flickr logo is horribly ugly.

For the Scribblenauts out there, @ScribbleMaxwell is on Twitter now. Kind of intrigued as to what sorts of updates we’ll see.
SQL Server Mgmt Studio 2008 won’t let me make changes to my table’s data types that I can handily make in SSMS 2005. Odd.
Also, http://scribblesports.wordpress.com/ is now my new favorite means of predicting the outcome of NFL games.
Between Beatles Rock Band and Scribblenauts, it’s been a great couple of weeks in gaming. I hear that ODST game is neat but, not a Halo guy.
Sometimes you just wanna tweet something but you know it goes TMI and you hold back. Now is one of those times for me. Not feeling so good.
Also amused that @CMCAlbuquerque said that they didn’t mean to do that to @fivezerofive in a tweet, but others have reported the same thing.
I really enjoy talking about my happy home WiFi networking setup and how everything is spiffy and fast. #geek #sad
Now that I know replies aren’t seen in your stream unless you also folow the person, I’m turning into like 95% replies. That’s bad.

I want this shirt.
If you’re a Beatles fan and you haven’t bought the remasters yet, GET ON IT. They sound AMAZING. That is all.
Seriously, I am making a copy of this disc for my car so that I can have a pure clean copy that can safely be stolen without losing original
I don’t bother with actual physical CDs in the car usually, but these are SO worth it. Seriously.
I think I have heard 207 variations on the “Kayne West interrupts Swayze’s death because MJ’s was better”. Can we move on to diff jokes now?
#FF People I got to meet last weekend in IN: @madmup @angela_ @frogglin @bdbdbdbd @gregbosma @emmaleigh1779 - don’t think I’m missing anyone
Bought http://thinkgeek.com/bb12/ from @thinkgeek, at first I laughed because it looks so cheap, but it works surprisingly well. I’m a fan.
Not my picture, but http://twitpic.com/i372o is possibly the best Kanye interrupt joke I’ve seen yet.
Observation: I get the most retweets when it’s not my own original content. Not that I necessarily want retweets. Just observing.
Penn & Teller to do a 1-hr comedy show on ABC? http://tinyurl.com/md4dbg I’ll definitely watch, here’s hoping it’s great. :D

If the weather did nothing but kept up rainy days like this for the next month or two, I’d be a very happy camper. Love the rain. LOVE.
Trying to make @JMW pick a place to eat lunch is one of the more painful things I’ve had to endure today. :P
Today is the day of great quotes from friends. “It’s like an adventure in my armpits!” (Person’s feed is locked or I’d name)
I typo’d pirate as “ptrate’ in Scribblenauts and it suggested polyethylene glycol. I really wonder what *isn’t* in this game.
Caved in. Scribblenauts is awesome. God can totally beat up bears.
Okay, so, I’m loving this CPAP, but this sore spot on my nose is getting much worse. I hope the therapist has a suggestion.

One of the first posts in this thread has some GREAT information regarding airline allowances, including that I’m legally authorized to take it alongside any carryons I have without it counting in my…

I like when people at events are meticulous about tagging their tweets. It makes it SO much easier to filter them out in TweetDeck.
I think I may be the only person I know who is okay with Leno. He’s not amazing but I quite like headlines and jaywalking.
Sometimes I wonder if some of my friends would notice or care if I unfollowed them. I doubt I’d notice, as I don’t look at my list often.
Kanye is a d-bag, but Jay’s question of “What would your mom say?” went too far, IMO. I felt kind of bad for Kanye right there.

Sky high WiFi is awesome. Here’s a tweet from 30 thousand feet. :)
Flight delayed 70m or so. I guess at least I can take a little more time to eat. Mythbusters on the phone FTW.
Delayed flight is delayed. Still waiting to board. Looking like a 9:30 home arrival time maybe. Not horribly late, but I’m ready to be home.
En route back home, at my layover in DFW before getting on a plane back to ABQ. Was a fun weekend meeting bunches of people in person. :)
Wheels down in ABQ. About 90 minutes late. Very tired, glad to be home. A great weekend, I must say. Back to the grind in the morning. :)
Enjoying some UHF with friends from around the world in IN. Such a great movie.
