something must be wrong with me, I am listening to John Mayer, and actually like it. #
I basically have to restart Twitter each day because the memory usage will climb to 450MB (which is just not cool) #
giving TeleTwitter another try (Windows only) #
http://tinyurl.com/2onu8s Wow, Macheist just broke the $300K mark…damn impressive. #
@k1v1n : Tumblr is quite tempting as well. #
Each and every time I read Freud it reaffirms my belief that everything he wrote was complete bullshit. #
feeling really tired, and stomach is quite gross. thinking about bed soon. #
February 20th will culminate 4 years of blogging. That is kinda crazy to think about. #
http://tinyurl.com/2sqznz 7’7" Kenny George…doesn’t even need to jump to dunk. crazy. #
Philosophy homework was not nearly as bad as I expected. What a nice surprise. Time for bed. #
Woohoo! class cancelled. #
http://tinyurl.com/yqtj9v Windows 7 details about Milestone 1 build begin to leak out #
definitely not a restful sleep. had a dream I had to save people when they were buried alive while scuba diving. definitely not restful. #
I wish I could wear a hoodie to work…that’d be amazing. #
SameTime is freaking out today at work…wonderful, no inter-office IM today. #
finishing use cases, finishing documentation, cleaning up the inbox. #
rocking out to (classic) Weezer at work…this is how work should be. #
Would you give a complete stranger (co-worker) $2? #
twiddling my thumbs for the last 1 1/4 hours of work… #
Playing with Netvibes Ginnger…very nice so far.A little bit laggy though. #
sending all kinds of feedback about Netvibes Ginger…Netvibes status should = Twitter status. #
wow, it will certainly be a very busy night of homework. #
Netvibe Ginger’s "mark as favorite" is handy for collecting "read this later" links. Private = later, public = share. #

good start for the G men. It’s interesting to see the effect of the cold tonight. #
it’s funny trying to clean up code that was written 10 years ago …and by fun I mean, not. #
@billpalmer how many ways can they say "it’s cold"…I agree kinda gets annoying. #
typical Eli… he really needs to work on avoiding the sack. #
They need Plaxico to play out of his mind for them to have a chance in this second half. #
stupid penalties will always kill you. #
Bradshaw will carry this team in the 4th quarter. Here we go Giants, here we go! *clap, clap* #
this will be one hell of an ending…wow. #
fingers crossed…let’s go #
yup, he’s fired. #
funny thing is that the winner will get crushed by the Pats anyways… #
omg!! Int… #
did that just happen??? Redemption! #
holy shit! … no joke, before the game I said to my father "Giants win by 3" … #
I really hope Farve doesn’t decide to go out like that. He deserves better than that. #
@JasonCalacanis I called this a week ago http://snurl.com/1xvvb …hopefully I am wrong about the outcome though 🙂 #
@steverubel They would have been much happier with Pats vs Packers … Perfection vs. Farve. That would have been huge. #
hah…who could have predicted our Giants would be the NFC champions…wow 🙂 #
"The Giants became the first NFC team ever to win three road games and advance to the Super Bowl" …very cool! #
How cool would it be if Eli can win his first Super Bowl (in only his 4th season). It took Peyton 9 seasons.. #
http://snurl.com/1xvwk President Bush trying to pardon himself from potential warcrimes…this is absolutely disgusting. #
http://snurl.com/1xvwp Obama won more delegates than Hillary did in Nevada. He currently leads her in total number of delegates. #
time to read, wind down a bit, and head off to bed soon. night all! #
another very cold day …10, feels like -4 #
class, lunch with the girls, class #
Like normal I am 10 minutes early…I wonder how many days i’ll end up wasting in life by always being early. #
http://snurl.com/1xxu9 how to determine if you should say "oh snap!"… #
I find it amusing that it takes Dell 6 days to build and ship my new computer, but they say it’ll take them 14 to ship me a USB thumb drive. #
planning my exciting evening of homework..Freud, Tolstoy, and Russell. I know I’m excited. #
The Fisher King is on…I wish I could watch that instead of doing homework… #
rediscovering my collection of Rage Against the Machine. #
http://snurl.com/1xy4y Sync your Zune using iTunes or WMP …finally! #

Things to do when this semester is finally over.

I have all kinds of things I SHOULD do, but I think we all know that none of them will happen while the semester is in session. So, I present my list of “things to do” once this semester has ended:

Reinstall Windows Home Server (WHS). I still have the RC2 installed (which has long since expired).
Read “Head First SQL”. I purchased this over Christmas break, and then promptly never read it. Need to fix that.
Read “A History of God”. Again, I purchased this over Christmas break, and now I just need to read it.
Read “The Hobbit or There and Back Again”. I’ve had this book for YEARS, but I never got around to reading it. This Summer I will.
Have some type of relaxing vacation. I am not sure how financially feasible this one will be, we’ll see.
Decide if I will keep my web hosting. This has been on my mind for a while now. I pay for web space for no particular reason as this point. I could use one of the plethora of free hosted blogging platform (like Vox). All of my images are hosted on Flickr, and I use Twitter so much at this point that it’s a borderline addiction. We’ll see.

a local radio station is running a Valentines Day contest where you can win $10,000 towards plastic surgery…that is really messed up. #
buying what will hopefully be the last thumb drive I’ll need for many many years *fingers crossed* #
http://snurl.com/1xt6w iPhone/Touch firmware v1.1.3 jailbroken already … not going to be released until the SDK though. #
Juno is a fabulous movie, highly recommended. #
I like those highlighters that have the little sticky notes built in…very handy. Yes, simple things amuse me. #
it’s currently 10 here right now, feels like -3 with the windchill …great day for coffee, homework, and then some football! Go Giants! #
anyone know a good WinMobile app for backing up txt messages? #
you still know how to hurt me like no other. #
getting ready for some football…go Giants! #
anyone need a license for AppZapper? DM me ASAP if you’re interested (yes, for free) #
I hate when applications decide they have the right to FORCE me to restart my computer …um, no!? I’ll restart when I feel like it. #
hot chocolate and football…pretty good combination. #
go Pats and go Giants!! #
@JasonCalacanis use fumbleview.com 🙂 #
You can’t possibly beat the Patriots by only scoring field goals. #
I like Bret Farve a great deal, but I really really hope the Giants can pull this off. #

filling out FAFSA paperwork, homework, going to see Cloverfield later today #
had an hour long conversation I didn’t intent on having… now to begin some homework. #
Seeing Cloverfield… #
Cloverfield …biggest let down of the year? Yeah, probably. #
Cloverfield was really not very good. uninspired, uninteresting, and unoriginal. #
wow, Clinton just flew past Obama in Nevada…well crap. #
my calendar is looks kinda cool when with all the different colors …yes, I am easily amused. #
reading about Freud so I can more intelligently explain why he is/was an asshat. #
$150 to spend at Dell.com …hmnmm… #
looking at http://web.archive.org/ of websites is such a trip down memory lane #
Picking up Chinese for dinner…it’s been far too long since the last time I had it. #

A co-work of my mother said she’d consider killing her husband if it meant she could have Chris Botti. #
@Matthom yeah sorry delayed. your iPhone 3rd party apps are toast right? I would have waited for the SDK to drop. I am waiting with my Touch #
@lisamac …so uh, I am supposed to @ you to get you to follow me back. you’ve been @ed 😛 #
Since Feb 24, 2007 I have 2,905 Tweets, that works out to be roughly 8.9 Tweets per day (including today). I am addicted, yeesh! #
Dear Microsoft, in Entourage 2008…I’d like to SUBSCRIBE to an iCal, not just download it once. Grr, this is not a difficult thing! #
@Rafe Mac users tend to be more fanatical about their choice of computer. They are the most pushy of any hardware group that I’ve "met". #
I met a lady at work today who’s name is "Princess Morgan" …I kid you not. Her first name is Princess. evil evil parents she has. #
@k1v1n I assume you saw the movie? It was pretty good, I thought. #
I JUST figured out how to @ people with Twitterific …wow, that’s unintuitive. #
@k1v1n certainly worth the watch. I think "older" people will definitely get more out of it then us darned "kids". #
The Red Sox season opener will be at 6:07AM EST because it’s in Japan…are you kidding me? ain’t that precious… #
http://tinyurl.com/22wcob "10 Things You Did Not Know You Could Buy On Amazon.Com" funny, scary, and fairly amusing. #
having a very odd discussion about women’s underwear. #
trying to setup Synergy between my desktop and my laptop…we’ll see how well this works. #
very cool, Synergy works pretty well…desktop and laptop sharing 1 mouse/keyboard. is quite handy. #
meeting my prof, class, class, lunch meeting, class, group paper…home around 4ish. #
well crap, can’t drop the class I thought I could…and I didn’t do the homework for today. #
Thank god it’s Friday, indeed. I’m way more tired than I should be. #
Lunch with a potential new prof…nice guy. Hopefully they’ll actually hire him. #
home after what felt like a very long day, even though it wasn’t all that long in reality…perception is what really matters though, right? #
testing a "top secret" mouse, and they decided to get rid of the middle click….really? that’s a very stupid decision. #
Thinking about buy a IronKey hardware-encrypted flash drive…it sucks to lose your portable apps these days. #
thinkin about dinner #

http://snurl.com/1xlaa Windows 7 on track for a H2 2009 release? That sure would be nice …Milestone 1 (M1) has been sent to key partners. #
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html Get screwed with your early iPod Touch? Feel free to let Apple know that you are unhappy. #
not bad … line speed is still 4.5MB down/ 0.5MB up to a location 9,000 miles away #
http://snurl.com/1xln6 …just in case people forgot, you can use symlinks in Vista. very handy. #
http://snurl.com/1xloz signing up for the Windows Server 2008 launch event in my area #
FYI…it appears we’ll be getting some kind of "launch giveaway kit" in case you need an incentive to go to the Server 2008 launch event. #
finishing this chapter, and then thinking about bed time. #
headed off to class…hopefully with coffee in hand. #
my personality class requires us to meet for 1 hour outside of class each week…not cool. #
Well that certainly was not the healthiest of lunches…ah well. tomorrow is another day #
http://pepsistuff.pepsiusa.com/ …the contest isn’t live, and yet the bottles of Pepsi give me a code? um? #
Gmail with the new Better Gmail extension is great. The "highlight current line" is very handy. #
installing Microsoft Mac Office 2008 …quite nice. #
writing use cases, working on documentation — in general stuff that is not sexy. #

@Matthom so you don’t like your 3rd party apps I assume? #
http://snurl.com/1xiuv "Why Appleâ€™s new laptop is basically useless" …I’d have to agree with everything that he points out. #
http://snurl.com/1xiv0 new iPod Touch will include the 5 apps for free, but current owners get absolutely screwed …typical Apple. Such BS #
My dream for the future: a day when I can get iTunes without Quicktime (hate this application with a passion). #
I am fabulous at procrastinating…some things never change. #
nothing like a little <sarcasm>uplifting</sarcasm> Tolstoy on a Tuesday night…talk about depressing, yeesh! #
http://beta.vooeasy.com/ …ironic that it’s called "VooEASY" when the website is so damned hard to navigate. not even worth bookmarking… #
it’s amazing what one will come up with when they are trying to avoid doing math #
Dark room + comfy chairs + watching a movie for my first class. Certainly not an effective way to wake up. #
gotta love when professors apparently have not joined the age of email…kinda makes communication a bit more difficult. #
Totally going to see Cloverfield this weekend…the reviews are quite positive. #
http://www.bureauofcommunication.com/ it’s like the Madlibs of the old days …funny/useful site. #

kinda bored in this class…is it 9:30 yet? #
every time Steve Jobs talks I just want to smack that smug arrogant douche bag smile right off of his face. I think we’ll see it tomorrow. #
http://snurl.com/1xh0r " The United Nations, Encapsulated" …hilarious. #
Hit the car in front of me or hit the curb. I picked the curb…now I have a massive flat tire. Fabulous. #
Apparently 3 other people got in an accident right after me, in the exact same place. What are the odds? #
I take that back, it probably isn’t chance. It’s probably because that intersection is a solid sheet of ice. #
anyone know a Twitter app that can be forced to use https instead of the normal http? #
my tricept shouldn’t be this sore after 3 days, perhaps I strained it much worse than I thought. #
not bothering to follow the keynote…engadget is dead, twitter is dead, gizmodo is dead. #
Apple’s HD movie rentals aren’t a great deal. I rent on demand for $4 right now. #
The Macbook Air’s SSD drive adds $1,000 to the price …um, no thanks. The standard HDD is only 4200 RPM …that sucks. no thanks. #
Twitter just swallowed my post. You can’t increase the RAM in the Macbook Air either, 2GB max …that’s annoying. #
waiting for the v1.1.3 firmware to get cracked/hacked/jailbroken. v1.1.1 is working just fine for me thankyouverymuch. #
@fraying except for the slow 4,200 RPM standard HDD, and the 2GB limit on RAM (maybe we can add more after the fact). #
my package from Newegg just went from TN to NY to MD to NY …um? #
@Aubs I think "dude" has become gender neutral, but I could be wrong. #
the Macbook Air… sexy? sure, practical? no way. Get 6 eee PC’s for the same price #

Giants by 4 woot! Time to play some defense boys!! #
Giants win! Giants win!!! #
Going to watching the Sarah Connor Chronicles…let’s see if this is any good (I highly doubt it). #
@Matthom that would be insane! I’d love to see the Giants beat the Pats in the rematch. #
new Terminator…plot – 4, dialogue – 2, special effects – 3…overall, quite the crappy tv show. Only on Fox… #
http://snurl.com/1xcp1 What the hell happened in the New Hampshire primary? Vote tampering? #
going through all of my Facebook apps and disabling the "Allow this application to contact me via email."…very irritating. #
@leahjones Facebook really is MySpace 2.0 … just a different kind of irritating/obtrusive. #
I look down on people who don’t believe in evolution at this point …does that make me a bad person? #
as a footnote, I don’t think evolution and creationism have to be mutually exclusive either. #
i still get nervous before the first day of class. I probably won’t sleep very well this evening. #
Anyone need an invite for SnapFoo.com? Drop me a @ …I have 5 invites. #
http://www.coveritlive.com/ Need to liveblog something? this is "liveblogging heaven" apparently…just in time for Mac World #
I’ll be bold, I’ll predict Patriots vs Giants in the Super Bowl … Pats win 35-21 #
http://snurl.com/1xdmh Acid 3 test is already being worked on for anyone curiuous #
yeah, definitely a bit nervous on the first day of class #
I have this awkward 15 now becaue we got out early on the first day of class. Lunch break soon…score! #
2 classes down … 3 more to go. lunch break now, 2 more classes, and then a brief dinner break…not too horrible. #
conversation I just overheard "I would have called you last week, but I was drunk off my ass 24/7, and I was kinda being a whore" #
I heart people watching…it’s so amusing/unproductive #
Literally 2/3 of the class is txting right now…pretty funny/sad. And, they are all freshman…ugh. #
sometimes I really wonder why I even talk to people…they clearly don’t bother to listen to me. #
sometimes I am too smart for my own good…I outwit myself. not good. #
