  • I was almost looking forward to homework until I pulled out the assigned reading for tonight. Now I want to take a nap. #
  • Cute. Now $mortgage_co has spontaneously decided they cannot accept the address (which has been there for 9 yrs) on insurance papers. #
  • Yay! With @garrettpopcorn’s help, I can has cheese popcorn! http://twitpic.com/129cnk #
  • Everybody’s packing up to go to Spring Training! http://is.gd/81CN3 #
  • Seriously craving cheese popcorn! But dunno if I want to go out in snow to @GarrettPopcorn w/o knowing they have #whitesox tins in stock! #
  • Why the Red Cross prefers your cold, hard cash and not crap from your garage to be donated for disaster relief: http://is.gd/80Jzv #

Snowball cats

Comments off

Through the careful use of the scientific method and experimentation, I have discovered that cat fur must be a really good insulator:

Cats with snow on them

I put snow on the cats (who were inexplicably unwilling to go out and play in it) and they just sort of sat there and acted like I was the crazy one. Typical!

  • What the…? Trying to figure out where I got the idea that current pattern wants 12 repeats of chart 2. Actually wants 4. I’ve done 6! #
  • I’m scared of #snowmageddon – should I run to Jewel and stock up on cheese popcorn and pistachio pudding mix? Already good on wine. #
  • I now have “T**** E****** o* t** H****” stuck in my head due to subwoofer neighbor at work. THAT IS IT. HE MUST BE STOPPED. #
  • Ha. Ozzie: “Omar no tiene el dinero para comprar mi número.” http://is.gd/7WZJd #whitesox #mediasblancas #
  • 13 days until #whitesox pitchers and catchers report! #

  • Mad thumping in next apt. Perhaps that sporting event thingie is getting interesting. #
  • My latest spinning: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sldownard/4338736503/ #
  • IT IS PUPPY BOWL TIME! http://animal.discovery.com/videos/puppy-bowl-vi/ #
  • Now they’re saying 10″? Chicago National Weather Service guys are sooooo jealous of #snowmageddon! #
  • From my Grandma: Save the Earth — It’s the only planet with chocolate! #
  • But now. Caffeinated and breakfasted, time to go tackle prepping the apt to have strangers walk through taking photos of my stuff. :( #
  • Suffering from knitting resentment: Grumpy that I have too little free time to get anything actually *finished* these days. #
  • One of these days, I need to get the 2005 #whitesox DVDs… just reading about bits of those games still gives me the YEEEEEEAHHHHHH!!!!s. #
  • I think the Chicago NWS office is jealous of #snowmageddon – I keep getting frantic emails warning that we might get 6″ on Tuesday. #
  • Ugh. Awakened by evil alarm clock of doom after sleeping in two 2-hour chunks last night. Coffee, where are you, I need you… *stumble* #
  • Craig on Facebook’s anniv: “Can you believe it was just six years ago you could actually lose touch with douchebags you didn’t like?” #

  • I’m so proud of the Maroon! http://is.gd/7R2TH Our little muckrackers, breaking !NSIT news, all grown up! #
  • More of the non-stop teabagger lulz! RT @tzikeh Sarah Palin’s speech at the teabag conference WRITTEN ON HER HANDS: http://bit.ly/cWrxax #
  • Claire Danes on Craig. Gosh, she’s cute. I feel like watching Romeo + Juliet. In deference to @sanityknit, should I mute the dialogue? #
  • “Daley defends Cohen’s right to run.” Well, of course he’s got a right to it. We’ve all got the right to stupid, ineffectual wastes of time. #
  • That said: zomg squeeeeeeeee! #
  • It’s a good thing @neilhimself didn’t pen a 10th Dr episode. The death-by-fangirl-squee numbers would have been hard for the BBC to explain. #
  • I like the wool I am currently spinning. That said, I cannot wait to be done with it and move on to something new!!! #
  • Doing cleanup and chores, in preparation for tomorrow being Sunday Funday (Slackday). Gonna make some soap! #
  • The irony of doing interesting homework: I want to read *more* papers now! Mmmm, tasty bike+rail commute policy initiatives! #
  • ~2 hours of data entry later, I think iBank finally has my investments right. Now too tired to fix glitches in checking. #
  • Financial software is supposed to make this shit *easier*, not make me want to throw the computer off the balcony. #
  • Me, just now: If yew could give me a caul bahk on that numbehr, Aahd rilly ap’reciate it! Instant Southern Niqui, just add Texan voice mail. #
  • Mortgage Co: Why is your web site so *absurd* with the taking to to other sites to see escrow info, insurance info, etc.? Hate you so much! #
  • 10:38 AM: Already downed a full pot of coffee. May just vibrate the whole rest of the way through Homework Saturday. #
  • Tea party whackaloons: now just plain 100% pure entertainment! http://is.gd/7OATI #
