the everyday adventures of sabrina

• Ah, Chicago summer nights… put on a warm fleece jacket, take a hot cup of tea outside in the balcony, until it gets too cold. Wait, what? #
• Ending the work week having finished with something — and having it work right — is a nice bonus. #
• @windycitizen What, didn’t they see the Very Special Episode of “ER”? in reply to windycitizen #
• Aw! Tonight is Mullet Night! I love Mullet Night… someone make sure and take pics of goofy jumbotron player pix for me! #whitesox #
• @hubbit I … kinda don’t hate the bean. It’s neat to look up once you’re under it. Best when the tourists are elsewhere, of course. in reply to hubbit #
• @richardroeper Thank you for that small mercy! in reply to richardroeper #
• Argh. Was doing okay but then objet de resentment came back up & am now feeling down. Need some sort of destressing mantra or something. #
• Crap. Just realized that $25 book bought by accident (already have) a week ago is not returnable. Argh. At least is one fewer errand to run. #
• Woke up this AM convinced it was Sunday & had gotten nothing done that I needed to do Fri or Sat. This says bad thngs abt my anxiety levels. #

• @smokes70 Make sure you tweet the results of this test! For great justice! in reply to smokes70 #
• Am kind of a little bit in love with the Harold Washington Library lately. It’s so great on the inside! And the librarians are awesome! #
• @hubbit Well, *obvs*, in a free society you would have chosen *that* (version of that) religion, not your silly little not-theirs one. See! in reply to hubbit #
• @sanityknit You did it!!! Congratulations! Now you NEVER have to do 1×1 ribbing for a whole pullover again! in reply to sanityknit #
• iMac has relented and is letting me use my mice today. It must have heard my tears of fear and rage and decided to take pity on me. #
• 8 year old after looking at my cube toys (incl flying pig & screaming monkey slingshot): “You’re into some weird stuff.” #
• @Ipstenu “@slowdownard”? What are you saying here?? *sniff* *sniff* in reply to Ipstenu #
• Dear Firefox: Wd greatly appreciate it if it weren’t a 4 step process to confirm evry time I want to look at someone’s self-signed bug list. #
• http://www.adn.com/2835/story/864687.html (I’ll just play the X-Files theme music while you read) #
• @smokes70 (@Ipstenu @hubbit) Exactly! Truth in advertising! in reply to smokes70 #
• @hubbit (@Ipstenu @smokes70) I don’t think someone really counts as a monopoly when it’s big news that you just got like 8% market share. in reply to hubbit #
• @christensen Because people who just want to give them money are crooks and/or on deathbeds? …WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?!?!?! in reply to christensen #
• @smokes70 I really like the Mac vs. PC ads. Because… Vista, dude. I mean. It really is just *bad*. At least smarmy Mac Guy is clever. in reply to smokes70 #
• @smokes70 Although it is entirely unsurprising that MSFT would choose to totally miss the point & just be twits instead. Twits w/lame ads. in reply to smokes70 #
• @smokes70 Not quite so simple. MSFT ads list specific specs @ price X when price is actually lower than that. Not allowed to outright lie. in reply to smokes70 #
• Dear DePaul: If ystdy tried to mk appt for tdy but you couldn’t & you sd call back tdy, right resp tdy is *not* “Sry, no same-day appts.” #
• If my computer hadn’t lost its mind last nigh, was going to post a pic — I CAN HAS BALCONY NAO! Got home lst nite & it was unbarricaded! #
• @jkknorr Amen brother. in reply to jkknorr #

• @THEDavidTennant Snirk! Nice. :) in reply to THEDavidTennant #
• @writchrd Happy nervousness-inciting day!!! Good luck!!!!! in reply to writchrd #
• @christensen I dunno… that’s kind of a little bit perfect for a short, yappy creature that jumps around on couches. in reply to christensen #
• Prob weirdest thing abt adjusting to using winbook rather than macbook is remembering *not* to ctrl-click for a right-click menu; hv button. #
• So. Tried all ystdy evening to get Mac to cooperate; got mostly nowhere. Do not want to have to go buy a replacement all of a sudden! #
• @writchrd But…but…then I’d have to work for Facebook! in reply to writchrd #
• Oh, USB2.0… you so slow. Copying this data is going to be like compiling a kernel in 1995… come back tomorrow night and see if done yet. #
• @hubbit Have 2 mice connected. Identical problem. in reply to hubbit #
• Mac trying to lure me into false sense of complacency, so I kill this backup, by having leftclick work now after 8-10 reboots.Do not buy it. #
