Seriously, y’all, set me up with a blind date for this Bulls ticket for tomorrow with a cute person of your acquaintance, or something! #
Cute new haircut! Short again (phew). #
Feeling ridonkulous. Have spare courtside ticket for Bulls v. Knicks tomorrow, can’t find anyone to go with me. :( #
I need to start bringing lunch to work again. I hate the daily indecision. #
Dear Candidate: Lording how you are married and a parent over your gay opponent makes you a schmuck. no love, –s. http://is.gd/5qgHQ #
@smokes70 Yeah. I’ve only ever known one person to admit to liking them. The rest … tend to say the name only in combination with “ugh.” in reply to smokes70 #
@smokes70 Compared to this, Celine Dion was just a shot across the bow. in reply to smokes70 #
@Kbcraigs What did you do? in reply to Kbcraigs #
@smokes70 @hubbit I actually don’t mind Digg so much, bc there is orig content there. But an identical FB status: cmplt waste of my time. in reply to smokes70 #
Like, @SNLDePaul, I should not click on your URL from tweet about shiny new homepage to be taken ELSEWHERE than shiny new homepage! #
Am rlly tired of tweets w/URLs that mislead me to think they are for more info, but just go to Facebook status identical to the tweet. #

Excellent. Haircut scheduled for tomorow. Now I can quit reminding myself to get a haircut. #
Much iBank confusion just sorted now I’ve discovered why it’s taking my manual DLs of checking acct and putting them in other random accts. #

@sanityknit BTW, you’ll have to remind me. I’m accumulating a whole stash of stuff in the closet to haul to your place next time I’m out. :) in reply to sanityknit #
Not even a hint of a coughing fit during my workout tonight! Hooray! Maybe The Cold That Wouldn’t Die is finally dying! #
I coulda been a bus driver anywhere in da world, but I hadda pick Chicago, Illinois! http://is.gd/5nM6U #
What’s dumber than drunkblogging and drunktxting? Drunk-accosting your wife’s political opponent. http://windycitizen.com/wgdT #
I’m really astonished at how fast the enraged desire to beat my fists on the wall at him returned to me. Less than 3 full hours in the ofc. #
Oh. I forgot about office neighbor and his goddamn subwoofer, when I was out on vacation. AM HEARTILY SICK OF MY DESK VIBRATING. #
I don’t waaaaaaaannnnnna be not on vacation anymore. :( #

@christensen Cookie? in reply to christensen #
Cast on for a heavy lacy scarf with some BFL handspun. Feels good to be knitting off a chart again. :) #
Good news: The Cold That Wouldn’t Die must be finally going away; I can sing today without (a) croaking or (b) having a coughing fit. #
OyTunes! http://is.gd/5lSvz I love Matzoh No. 5. #
My favorite Christmas carol, Muppetized: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysIzPF3BfpQ #
Last remark is your fault, @robotviki, by the way :) #
If I took an IQ test while tipsy and scored “very superior,” how might I do sober? Low average, d’you think? #
I think I just fell out of my chair laughing at the “most unParliamentary language, most unParliamentary language.” Really. #
My God, it’s a governmental body where I might feel at home at last. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8TRXJ0SHm4 #

I mean, really, nothing against either merlots or ports (to be sure), I love you both, but surely we can all agree you aren’t fungible. #
Great Injustice in Organization of My Apartment: What on earth is a *Merlot* doing in the *Port* section of the wine rack?!?! #
@secabeen And how. Yum! in reply to secabeen #
@chicagostyle Valois? Oh man, it is has been too long…. <3 in reply to chicagostyle #
@hubbit TEA FTW :) in reply to hubbit #
In case anyone is looking: Pretty much anything from the CTA giftshop or IL Railway Museum shop would be a good xmas pressie for me. FYI. #
I seriously do not understand why web forms that request my ZIP code also demand that I fill in the state. Lists, guys, we has them. #
@beth825 V. cute! Raaawr at the shirt :) in reply to beth825 #
You know what would be really cool? If I could get a job as an accent coach. I love figuring out other accents, it would be fun to study. #
@kjo84 Missed y’all cos of the cold that won’t die, but I waved when you went by! http://is.gd/5lcf5 http://is.gd/5lcgv in reply to kjo84 #
May have to make fast trip to @Loopyyarns for a couple minutes. Needle emergency. Y’all understand. #
@jss1113 Fabulous <3 :-) in reply to jss1113 #
Via @jss1113, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E-47VmFopE is faaabulous. #
I am tired of having the plague. Should probably cancel gym appt today lest I cough germs all over the Bosu ball. Argh. #
