the everyday adventures of sabrina

i'm happy, hope you're happy too
  • @Suntimes Ha. My boss is (he hopes) leaving for vacation to Madrid tomorrow — he is so doomed, isn’t he? in reply to Suntimes #
  • I like the hashtag “#snowtastrophe.” I wonder how many failwhales lately have been due to frozen precipitation and tweeting thereupon? #
  • It is a bad sign that I am already annoyed by a prof I have yet to meet. #
  • Loonball Andy Martin is back at it again. Think he may be relying on “any publicity is good” a bit too much. http://is.gd/5OGFD #
  • @Ipstenu Deal! in reply to Ipstenu #
  • Squee! It’s totally “buy #whitesox spring training tickets” day! ♥ ♥ ♥ #
  • @YarnHarlot I shudder to think about Tyra judging my woven-in ends. in reply to YarnHarlot #
  • Wednesday blah. #

  • @Ipstenu Weird mime type on the server? in reply to Ipstenu #
  • I love the #biggaybattle so much. Sorry, Dr. Horrible, I had to throw in with the home-state boy! Illinois solidarity! #
  • @hubbit @Ipstenu So am I … but there are special grandma-related occasions. :-) in reply to hubbit #
  • @Ipstenu @hubbit Shoveling snow is also useful when you have a lot of rage at Windows to work through… :) in reply to Ipstenu #
  • Tomorrow I get to call my #whitesox guy and buy ST tickets! Woohooooo! I am so looking forward, have never gone! It’s gonna be great! #
  • @hubbit @Ipstenu I cleared our sidewalk in my old place there, but the rest of the block… :/ “Hit or miss” is generous. in reply to hubbit #
  • @Ipstenu I never knew that. Probably because no one ever frigging shovels. God, I do not miss Wicker Park! #
  • I am aghast to learn someone tried to pitch Torchwood: The Musical with music by ABBA. Thank god for the word ‘no.’ http://is.gd/5NowK #
  • @thebkwyrm Yay! We should plan now to annoy all our mutual followers next week by spouting lines from the show at each other. in reply to thebkwyrm #
  • @beth825 http://jkpolk.livejournal.com/171798.html amusing iconage (via @hubbit) #
  • Oh, by the way, @smokes70, @seanwarehttp://is.gd/5N8LD – told you Sork was doing a Facebook movie. :) #
  • @Ipstenu Millennium Park. Though I keep meaning to check out the Daley Bicentennial rink behind it… in reply to Ipstenu #
  • Hooray! @robotviki heroically and singlehandedly saved my birfday! We are go for Eddie Izzard! #
  • Zoinks. We’re supposed to get 7-9″ of snow between tmrw night & Thu night. Was going to ice skate Thurs…now I dunno. #
  • Subwoofer neighbor is feeling mellow today: currently singing along with America’s “Horse w/No Name.” La la la la la la la, la la la, la la. #
  • @smokes70 Yeah, pretty much! in reply to smokes70 #
  • Super bummed. I totally spaced buying Eddie Izzard tickets for my birfday Friday and now everybody’s booked. #
  • Inexplicably, prof from Organizational Comm class just sent out this link: http://is.gd/5MTJi Thanks for the helpful hint not to buy CDs? #
  • I could seriously just listen to that Chicago Complaints Choir song over and over, that’s how awesome it is. #
  • Figured out wrong-class? crisis of yesterday. Not wrong class after all, just a glitch in the draft schedule I was looking at ystdy. Phew. #
  • @Ipstenu Go to Consumerist, see if others have horror stories too (submit yours!), and see if they found an effective defense! in reply to Ipstenu #
  • So much love! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvWVxHEaWDU #
  • @Ipstenu Nudge nudge, wink wink! in reply to Ipstenu #
  • Initial thoughts on the electric toofbrush: My, that *tickles*! #

  • Oh, man. I had to keep taking breaks to keep from bursting out into mad laughs at Fark’s Top 20 Headlines of 2009: http://is.gd/5MhMc #
  • @mgfarrelly No way. Fighters protecting things in space is totally the USAF! in reply to mgfarrelly #
  • TequilaBot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5K6NGT0Esc #
  • @richwolf I have honed my skills for well over 10,000 hours and consider myself quite accomplished in the field of slacking! in reply to richwolf #
  • @Ipstenu Got email from the Humane Society about Jorja, went to google for a linky to send you, got your site! Way to steal my thunder. :) #
  • Crapmuffins. Am worried I signed up for the wrong class for spring quarter. Can’t figure it out until after class, after 9PM, too. :( #
  • @seanware I put on the Glee soundtrack. No more helping!!! #
  • @seanware What did I ever do to you?? in reply to seanware #
  • Ha. NSFW but amusing – stumbled upon http://is.gd/5M22B while searching for filter scripts to recognize top-posted emails. #
  • @seanware Why you gotta be like that? :P in reply to seanware #
  • Pleased to report that in its first battle against Chicago January, my fresh-off-the-needles alpaca beret came out on top. Yay! #
  • Okay. I can do this. Monday, I mean. #
  • @ColonelTribune Nice serendipitous tinylink — it looked like it said BLEAK :-) in reply to ColonelTribune #
  • Y’all, I have had this Blackeyed Peas song stuck in my head for a WEEK and it really needs to get its hindquarters in gear and get going. #
  • Just read 2 chapters from book for class that meets 1st time tomorrow. I think this is going to be a good one. #

  • @beth825 Nice! Whole new clothes shopping opportunities await :) in reply to beth825 #
  • RT @Ipstenu: Hey! January is National Drag History Month! Hug a drag queen and tell her she’s FABULOUS! #
  • I hate dealing with mail, but I looooooooove when it’s all dealt with. #
  • After watching the two TEoT Confidentials, now I’m all sad and mopey. Need something cheerful. Maybe The Unusuals on Hulu. #
  • @Ipstenu It really really is hilarious! in reply to Ipstenu #
  • @Ipstenu Probably they haven’t found how to screw it up yet. in reply to Ipstenu #
  • Fortune cookie says: You will conquer obstacles to achieve success. Finally a fortuney-sounding fortune, rather than advice! #
  • According to forwarded text msg from fam, I have 20 mins to tell 10 people I love them or my 2010 will suck. BLACKMAIL LOVE IS TEH BEST! #
  • I think every copy of TurboTax Deluxe for Mac should come with an opportunity to punch someone at Intuit in the face. #
  • “Purchasing TurboTax is easy and secure!” It must be secure, since it doesn’t appear to DO ANYTHING AT ALL with my data. #
  • Intuit. Whyfore you soooooooo *bad* at everything Mac. Can’t even get the TurboTax purchase CD you *mailed me* to work right. #
  • First knitting FO of the new year: red alpaca beret. Warm and fuzzy, (finally) fits perfectly! #
  • @smokes70 @Ipstenu @seanware Meh. That debate is /so/ last decade. :-) in reply to smokes70 #
  • Pork in the crock pot to make pulled pork. Just need to get the motivation to wash the dishes and finish sorting old mail to be done. #
  • Wow, the FAFSA site is sucking major ass today. #
  • @Ipstenu I’ve got the DVDs if you’re ever interested, though they’re R2. Good little short series. in reply to Ipstenu #
  • @Ipstenu Also, have you seen Ultraviolet, with Jack Davenport? in reply to Ipstenu #
  • @Ipstenu So it’s a “when you’re bored and looking for something new” thing, not a “zomg go get NAO” thing, then? :) in reply to Ipstenu #
  • @beth825 Instant queue it, baby! Tons of old adventures up there! in reply to beth825 #
  • @Ipstenu @hubbit Jury’s still out on that chez niqui. But if so, it totally just got renamed to THE DEATH GLOVE OF RASSILON! in reply to Ipstenu #
  • In contrast to all y’all watching TEoT2 tonight, I instead watched The Seeds of Death. Classic Who, no angst, ROCKETS TO THE MOON, FTW! #
  • @Ipstenu That’s with Philip Glenister, yeah? How is? in reply to Ipstenu #

  • @Ipstenu Personally I’d like to know how a thirty-foot fall killed 4 and *that* didn’t faze 10, but maybe he invested in some kneepads. in reply to Ipstenu #
  • @beth825 Heh. Yes. A million slashers had little heart attacks at that scene. And then retired to their bunks. in reply to beth825 #
  • nom nom nom. Just ordered tasty Indian food delivery. I <3 mutter paneer! #
  • Want to finish up current wool spinning so I can try alpaca for the first time! #
  • Pulled out some DVDs, books, and games to donate to Brown Elephant. It’s that time of year (again/still). #
  • I still don’t understand why iBank thinks certain of my 403(b)s are valueless. Argh. #
  • Ugh. Can’t believe BofA apparently only lets me export my transactions by statement closing date boundaries. Worst Online Banking Ever. #
  • The @Suntimes page currently lists our 3°F weather as “Wicked.” Ouch. #
  • @sweatshopoflove @actifblue 18 sounds a bit low, actually. More like 30. :) But don’t worry, some of them are sadly lost in time :( in reply to sweatshopoflove #
  • @seanware That version’s actually a bit better than what mine would be like — not nearly enough hair band rock! in reply to seanware #
  • Adorkable. http://savethecups.com/ #
