  • Ohhhh my bank… my aching bank… #
  • The people down the street who like to build bonfires in their backyard just got a visit from the Albany FD. Swear I didn’t call! #

  • @Ihnatko: I’m afraid of that too! I never blog on my blog anymore, but here I can’t shut up. You’re hands down my favorite tech writer btw. #

  • (I mean, you can group your friends now.) See here: http://tinyurl.com/ypeolo #

  • So the deal is, a lady is selling her Kindle on Craigslist for $399!!! She could be doubling her money! I almost shit myself. So I told her. #

  • On the iPhone, the terms “sleep”, “lock” and “standby” all mean exactly the same thing, correct? I gotta problem with that. #
  • Once again experiencing crushing guilt over my walled F’book garden of RLFs and family. @leolaporte has opened his up to everyone… waaah!! #
  • Doing a full erase and restore. If that doesn’t work I’m gonna set it up as a “new iphone” but I gotta grab my Notes first (lyric snippets). #
  • Wow, fancy label colors in Gmail #
  • Kitty Wigs! (via Laughing Squid)
  • No charges in the Megan Meier suicide case. It figures. http://tinyurl.com/2ect8k #

  • F’book newsflash: (name withheld)’s relationship status is no longer listed as “complicated”. Heh. And btw my site went kablooey just now. #
  • OMG Daddy bought a Kindle! Fished in, fished in! I am vicariously super excited about it. #
  • Just got back from Apple Store. THEY GAVE ME A NEW ONE! And headphones too! (the old ones were pretty fuckered up.) Steve, you are my king. #
  • (I meant a new iPhone. I would’ve edited that but Twitter won’t let me.) #
  • @BluesBro: naw, the Sprint comes with it for “free” (heh). But yeah I don’t think you can use the network outside the US. Hopefully soon! #
  • Huh. The new iPhone is at 1.1.1, gotta upgrade. BTW it doesn’t have the bell icon on the mute-switch! I’m no longer SUPER special, just OK. #
  • And on the tenth day, the ol’ jalopy was moved out of our spot. I hope they didn’t read it here though. I’m not THAT passive-aggressive. #
  • Somebody on Craigslist is offering *$550* to anyone who’ll sell him a Kindle this weekend. Man alive, I haven’t seen such hype since June 29 #
  • Wil got a big box from Amazon today. It’s been staring at me, sticking out its tongue even though it’s just a buncha deodorant or something. #

  • Ugh. htaccess and mod_rewrite are straining my brain something awful. I need to get better at regex, I shoulda had that down cold years ago. #
  • It may be dawning on me that the Twitter plugin I’m using is generating funky dates. Need to roll my own, but that’s a huge can’o'worms. #
  • I just blew my occasional allowance for luxuriousness. It’s a Levenger Circa Zip Folio, size compact, in eggplant. Yay! Can’t wait for UPS. #
  • F’book says (with a broken-heart icon) that a friend went from being "in a relationship" to "single". Am I to post condolences on his wall? #

  • I feel like such a prick, turning down Facebook requests from certain highly awesome people who don’t happen to be family or RLFs (yet)… #
  • Twitter found a bunch of Gmail contacts for me, but DOESN’T say who the hell they are. Some have funky usernames & I have no idea who’s who. #
  • Don’t take off your headset when hoisting your messenger bag! Put iPhone through the strap, THEN the bag over your head. Yes, I am a genius. #

  • Following Leo’s lead on Facebook: “Unlike my other networks I only accept friend requests here from actual real-life friends.” (Too bad Leo) #
