My microwave popcorn labeled as “pop and serve” bags. What else would you do with them? “Pop and put back in pantry”? #
Really. If tonight’s batch of Lolla idiots is typical, WILL NOT LEAVE THE HOUSE for next two days unless to light one of them on fire. #
Dear suburbanite Lolla goers: Seriously, DIAF. no love, –sabrina, to whom not one of you idiots would yield the sidewalk while puking. #

What? Why did the strange man in the sIdewalk just extoll the virtues of being embryonic? Some days I regret walking home alone. #
Bon week-end, tout le monde! #
Argh argh argh argh argh. It is not OK to ignore users just because they don’t know who to ask for help or are pesky! #

As much as am looking forward to Scarlet Swallowtail being done, really want to put in some quality time on my own lace designs! #
Hooray! Tinked back 2 whole rows (ugh), fixed mistake, knitted back up, & got 3 more rows done on top of that. It’s almost like progress! #
Decided to resume knitting Swallowtail. 2 beers are enough to cope with frogging several rows, not too much to completely bollocks it up. #
Wuh-oh, @lizg640 in da hizooouuussse…. now I’ll have someone to pester about how “Isn’t it about time for some video poker soon?” :) #
Oh come *on*, youse guys…. argh. #whitesox #
@richardroeper Really? You should’ve worked at my old workplace, that was an everyday occurrence! in reply to richardroeper #
WTF, danks, today is not ‘free SB w/ each plate appearance day’ at the ballpark! #whitesox #
Poor Twitter sysadmins. We’ve all been there. I hope somebody’s buying y’all beer once this day is all over. #

Angry Room is one of the less pleasant aspects of working in this particular office space. May start throwing self-help books at them. #
Angry Room is off and running (raging?) early today. #
Mmmm. Banana for breakfast. Bananas are good. Yay for bananas! #
The antepenultimate Wednesday writing class day dawns. Yes, mostly I just wanted to say ‘antepenultimate.’ #

What I said earlier about us Sox fans being happy Pods is back? Make that “really happy.” Go Go-Go #whitesox!! #
@christensen You’re just jealous of my moral superiority. in reply to christensen #
D’awwww. Listening to Mrs Pods on the radio talk about how happy Scotty is to be back. We’re happy he’s back too! #whitesox #
Way to go Beckham! (Okay, okay, I’ll sing it: I don’t wanna lose your love tonight!) #whitesox #
@christensen Everyone should read the bill! It’s not so hard! Shorter than your average Stephen King, after all! in reply to christensen #
Angry Room is now so loud in their rage that the sound makes it past our two rows of cubes and over the high wall to the team beyond. #
@robotviki Ha. Want! in reply to robotviki #
@Ipstenu Amen, sister. Amen. in reply to Ipstenu #
