- I wish I cared about the Monday Night Football game … neither team does it for me, just really not intriguing #
- @Alexis_centric hah…SO true. Don’t insult small town people by calling Palin that. #
- @Keljo1991 um…no… better? lol, not even vaguely close. Palin is a disgrace to all Americans. She’s the Paris Hilton of politics. #
- @Keljo1991 go Giants 🙂 (stupid bye weeks) #
- http://is.gd/3j2P umbrella says “f**k the rain” (and Google’s satellites) #

- @Keljo1991 heck of a game your Steeler’s got going tonight, huh? #
- just woke up and I’m already for a nap… #
- grey rainy morning…wish I could have just slept in today. #

- @Mobasoft it’s just you. Gmail gets along just fine with WLM …I receive mail all the time. #
- @Mobasoft I’m just saying…I’ve been using Gmail and WLM for 4 years without much problem. I’ve had issues with Gmail’s spam filter sucking #
- @Mobasoft Gmail’s spam filter rarely listens to me. I mark something as spam/safe and it just keeps doing what it wants to. frustrating. #
- @Mobasoft oh but Gmail is “beta” remember? 😛 #
- ok, definitely time for some crack (and reading) #
- @chrisriedinger any trend? Which model is popular? #
- Feeling exhausted and hungry today…and basically like the weather is outside. I’d love a nap if I could nap. #

- Really would like to call in sick to work tomorrow. Really not looking forward to all that work left over from Friday. #
- Damn the world… Taxi time is 50 minutes and the flight time is 52 minutes. Grr. #
- Watching Sunday night football while waiting to take off…at least we have football. #
- …still waiting to take off….grr. 😦 #
- http://is.gd/3gbh absolutely hilarious SNL video of Palin …. funny because it’s actually pretty accurate. #
- @edythemighty things worked out. 🙂 #
- absolutely exhausted after a wonderful (but long) weekend. sooo not ready for work tomorrow though. #
- …coffee and what looks to be a very busy Monday. #
- @aliciamk just doesn’t seem fair does it? 😛 #
- working on the motivation to get started with all of my work today. allergies are killing me today. #
- 7 or 8 different things I should be doing this morning, none of which I actually feel motivated to do. #
- did I miss something? Why is Apple’s stock price plummeting? #
- Verizon Wireless to get the iPhone? http://tinyurl.com/48qv4w #
- soooo much stuff to do in the next 3 1/2 hours. oy vey! #
- oh man… the Dow is tanking today. This is going to be ugly. #
- absolutely exhausted, but I need to try and fix my computer this evening instead of being lazy #
- @edythemighty that would be one very RED iPhone 😛 #
- never actually thought I’d say I was glad to back on Vista. Fixed my registry…maybe I actually can relax tonight. #
- http://is.gd/39QT “What Campaign Ads Would Look Like If the Voting Age Was 6” …lol. actually made me laugh on this otherwise awful day #

- I take that back… I re-read the gun control thing on MySpace …I’m 13 out of 14 with Obama. #
- wonderful… my installation of Vista just got corrupted …the registry is all messed up. That’s just wonderful. #
- http://is.gd/398x election.twitter.com Election Twitter sounds really cool … election.twitter.com won’t be live until midnight though #
- @steelopus karma for what? for speaking poorly of the blessed Mac? …please. #
- missing the girl … looking forward to going to NYC tomorrow, and definitely ready for bed pretty soon. #
- taking suggestions for streaming music sites … blocked: Last.FM, Pandora, Blip.FM, Grooveshark, AOL radio…. any ideas? #
- http://xkcd.com/481/ “Listen to Yourself” …awesome, and I really like the idea! #
- @panache at least we don’t need to fight…you take her, I’ll take Keira Knightley 😛 #
- @_chain great in theory, but without vendor support it’s kind of hollow now isn’t it? #
- @jeremyb …trust me, I agree. Only 3 more months of this BS. #
- really behind on my RSS feeds…busy busy Friday before I head out for NYC. #
- wow…my company even sucks enough to block CNN’s videos. That’s pathetic. #
- totally forgot my girl has her bank account at Wamu …doh. I should have remembered that. #
- it’s idiotic and a sign of incompetence that McCain can’t multitask and debate as well as “assist” with the bail out talks. (part 1 of 2) #
- Does McCain really think the president can choose to only focus on a single problem at any given time? What an idiot. (part 2 of 2) #
- T: “we can huddle under my umbrella” Me: “elllla ellla…” T: “DAMMIT! I RESISTED !” Me: “I didn’t” … 😛 #
- @StarrGazr I’m sure Fox News has several …that are neither “valid” or “logical” #
- @StarrGazr …I was being sarcastic 😛 #
- @creepysleepy yeah, instead he’s the one who screwed up the tentative agreement for the bailout principles. Way to go dumbass! #
- @StarrGazr oh man..I’d pay money to watch that debate actually. It would be hilarious. She can’t speak by herself though, it’d be brutal. #
- “Get ready baby, you’re gonna be kissed. At least a dozen, for each kiss we’ve missed. been so wrong for so long, but I’m so right tonight” #
- @creepysleepy and his obvious lack of a grip on reality. #
- @creepysleepy I’m quite sure both of them are in their own little worlds…I just prefer Obama’s world at the moment. 😛 #
- I think less of people who use the wrong word(s) when it comes to computers. “change the size of my screen (resolution)”, etc *sigh* #
- tonight’s debate is officially on (says CNN) …great news. #
- there is absolutely no way I will get all of my work done before I leave at 2PM *sigh* …oh well I guess. #
- Suggestions needed: good knowledge base/ticketing solutions. Require: web-based, free/open source ideally. #
- lol … easily 3 hours of work left to do, and 2 hours left of work. #
- Damn it. For lunch it’s either McDonald’s or coffee…what choices. grr #
- I’m going to be that alcoholic at the bar with a beer at 2PM…well, and a good book. Killing time at the airport. #
- Oh man… Talk about irony: they are playing George Michaels here in the bathroom. :p #
- @ceejayoz @andymurd I will give Trac a try. Thanks! 🙂 #
- Plane is here, but they are still saying we’re delayed? Why? #
- @StarrGazr NYC…expecting more rain actually :p #
- @ceejayoz this will be on an internal company web server. Installing won’t be my problem…that’s why we pay IT. 🙂 #
