  • yeah, virtually no chemistry on that take. ah well. #
  • so apparently my left contact has special plans to annoy me all day long… #
  • @Matthom I can definitely see accidents happening if you try to use a Touch while running…I can barely drive and use it (safely). #
  • definitely ready for it to be Spring break already… #
  • here goes nothing …I really hate having to mess with the live dB. #
  • @Veronica totally, as long as it doesn’t smell funky. #
  • deleting records from a live dB …never a fun thing to be doing. #
  • @Mobasoft I envy you (seriously). I really want to be that well versed sometime in the near future. #
  • @Mobasoft self taught? or job related? My list isn’t nearly as long, but it’s all self taught up to this point. #
  • Just once I’d love to feel competent at what I do. Everything is self taught so I don’t feel 100% knowledgeable which is rather unsettling. #
  • @Mobasoft Well, I am very impressed. When I am done with school I plan to be busy continuing my education (of languages). #
  • @Mobasoft that’s what I love about technology. I love the evolution of it all. It amazes me. #
  • @cindyli I vote an orange stripe – not pink. 😛 #
  • I need a nap…my energy level just plummeted for no apparent reason. Sleeping under the desk is not an option. damn it. #
  • I can’t tell you how happy I am that it may still be light out when I leave work. That is wonderful. #
  • http://tinyurl.com/ytlpwf Know any college student developers? Microsoft is giving way free software again… #
  • MS is a drug dealer. They give students a taste (with the free apps) in hopes that they get hooked later on. #

  • exhausted, and it’s definitely time for bed. g’night all #
  • I find it amusing that 40 feels like a Spring day …I am just thrilled all of the ice is finally melting. #
  • Is it time for baseball yet? Please? #
  • ESPN rates the Red Sox as a "B" for this season. How do bring back the entire world series champion team and only get rated a "B"? #
  • this mouse has a mind of it’s own, it’s moving by itself…so odd. #
  • Definitely just had my ass handed to me on that test. Wow, that was rough. #
  • http://snurl.com/1zw5s I hope someone can make a half way decent video game version of Magic: The Gathering…I’d buy that. #
  • I take that back …apparently I didn’t do too poorly on that test. score! #

  • had some coffee, watched a little Sportcenter, and now it’s time to begin another day of homework #
  • doing some web work for my office. all kinds of small changes to make. #
  • We have a rather refreshing 37*F rain/sleet/slush falling right now….because clearly we needed more ice to cover everything. #
  • http://tinyurl.com/2sm59p Obama – "Just Words?" ….he has such an amazing writer. #
  • (late) lunch, and some more studying. definitely thinking about sitting in front of the fire with some tea this afternoon #
  • Did RTM just break in Gmail (again) for anyone else? #
  • Google better not do something stupid like block RTM’s integration just because they’re going to offer a task list also…that’d be uncool #
  • scratch that – RTM is working fine inside Gmail …my ISP had a hiccup for a few minutes. #
  • http://heroku.com/ Any coders want to play around with Heroku? (online app creation). I can invite you, drop me a DM or an @ #

Redux: Things to do when this semester is finally over

My list of “things to do once the semester is over” keeps growing in length so I thought I’d just I’d add them on:

  • Reinstall XP on my desktop because Vista sucks (even with SP1).
  • Rewrite my current blog theme from scratch (it’s using tables right now…ick!).
  • Update my laptop to Vista SP1 (why not reinstall XP? don’t ask).

  • awake and running errands, then all kinds of homework this afternoon #
  • Getting a new tire and an oil change. Exciting morning, I know. #
  • eating brunch, and then homeworking for the rest of the day. #
  • @steverubel Great find! I think we all hate accidentally opening a PDF file. #
  • http://snurl.com/1zr5k St Louis Rams loser trying to sue the Patriots for beating them … wow, that is pathetic. #
  • http://snurl.com/1zrb7 graphs of Vista SP1 vs XP SP2 …gee look, Vista is still slow as all get out. #
  • http://snurl.com/1zrbi Very intriguing run down of the problems that Twitter faces, and an interesting potential solution. Great read. #
  • I love when new companies create web apps that are so painful difficult to understand/use (for no good reason). #
  • I can’t tell you how many times I have tried to do a "ls" while using the Windows command line… #
  • trying to get Folding@Home working with my quad core …I think I have it working…and it’s actually beating the hell out of my processor. #
  • reading some Plato, and then perhaps taking a trip over to Beers of the World #
  • my prof wants specific dates for when we’ll have parts of this project due. very obnoxious, let me procrastinate if I want to #
  • http://www.teamviewer.com …incredible remote access software. Literally idiot-proof. (no Mac support yet) #
  • I just noticed the theme I wanted to use for my blog is using tables for the layout. That sucks. Looks like I’ll have to rewrite this badboy #

  • FYI: American Gangster is really not very good. Quite boring in fact. #

  • http://tinyurl.com/2mukbf never saw the video for Norah Jones – Come Away with Me …amazing song, great video. #
  • http://tinyurl.com/38kkbt John McCain "Yes We Can" parody…hilarious and scary at the same time. #

  • @mashable ❤ #
  • @Lost ❤ #
  • SP1 installed …yup, Vista still sucks. #
  • watching Lost, with a beer. The good life. #
  • playing with Windows Server 2008 a bit …then headed off to bed soon. #
  • hmm…scratch that. It seems that Parallels can handle WinServer 2008. odd #
  • @joec0914 MS Office 2008 #
  • hopefully another day with a bit of sunshine …*fingers crossed*. at least no snow, please? #
  • Yeah, definitely exhausted today and really hoping the next 2 classes fly by. #
  • deciding if there is a point in going to a review session for a test that I am not worried about… #
  • They just showed a picture of the gunman from yesterday …he looks …."normal". It doesn’t make any sense. #
  • thought for the day: "The heart has its reasons, which reason does not know." – Pascal #
  • definitely starving…time to snack a bit (I know, I am weak) #

  • today is definitely one of those days…geez, I just wish something would work like it’s supposed to. #
  • wow…figured out my Treo problem. An event freaked out, created a few hundred copies of itself, causing my phone to freak out. how weird #
  • totally going to bomb this test tomorrow morning…a bit more reviewing, a little me time, and a good night’s rest. #
  • Dear Twitter, please figure out life. You’re make me sad when you fail so miserably. Thanks. #
  • @wmacphail a very accurate analogy! heh, I just watched that movie last week actually. #
  • Does anyone else really not care about Valentines day? I despise the "holiday" with or without a significant other. It’s a commercial joke. #
  • Well here goes nothing…wish me luck. I’ll just be happy when this test is done (either way) #
  • I think I did shockingly well on my test this morning. Happy fake holiday everyone. #
  • We should be showing our loved ones that you care every day, not just on some stupid fake commercial excuse to spend money holiday #
  • Wow, that glowing thing in the sky came out this afternoon. I can’t remember the last time we had a sunny day! 🙂 #
  • @microformats @dacort @warzabidul how are you adding the heart icon? #
  • @dacort gotcha. Thank you. 🙂 #
  • Sometimes I really shouldn’t answer the phone…totally lost my train of thought #
  • Twitter bug: can’t delete a tweet if you use HTTPS …works fine via HTTP though. They know about it, still working on it. #
  • I have an intriguing SQL problem that doesn’t make any logical sense. …the story of my life I suppose. #
  • @StarrGazr I agree. They made some nice improvements (finally). It’s no longer painful to use (compared to a desktop client) #
  • trying to kill some time …1.5 hours more. *sigh* #
  • Google Docs is completely pink today….wow, no thanks. #
  • @BreakingNewsOn you guys rock CNN and NY Times …you had the story at least 10 minutes before they did. #
  • @dacort sleep FTW! We don’t need a new TwitterStats feature that badly. we can wait (well most of us can). #

  • Wow, Obama absolutely rocked Hillary in Virginia …they are showing 62% to 37% right now. #

  • I definitely should be studying right now, but I am definitely not studying. #
  • Why are the DC results not being reported? They supposedly closed at 8PM… #
  • @StarrGazr "twittering"? …like it’s a verb that describes not working? 😛 I am having trouble too (and gCal) #
  • @StarrGazr It’s been funky for me the past 36 hours or so, but it seems to be a bit better now. #
  • Obama sweeps tonight – Virginia, Maryland, and DC. …excellent news. #
  • @manton Yeah, things are really beginning to turn towards Obama across the board. #

  • I am absolutely freezing today for some reason…I am wearing plenty of layers of close, but I am still cold. #
  • Shocking. I am 15 early for my class…roads weren’t nearly as bad as I expected. #
  • wow, these new shoes are destroying my feet…definitely need to stop home during lunch. #
  • http://tinyurl.com/9v426 Interesting talk – even if Obama wins all of the remaining primaries he won’t have enough (unless huge margin) #
  • @Mobasoft por que? (why?) #
  • I love when people say "well you certainly don’t look ‘pretty good’…" what is that supposed to mean? #
  • @Matthom iTunes also needs to not suck on Windows, and perhaps use less than 200MB of RAM, and perhaps not take 40 seconds to startup, etc.. #
  • dude my f**kin treo will not sync again …wtf? #

  • @dacort Indeed. I have often wondered how people found me on Twitter. That would be very interesting information. #
  • @dacort No, I am at a different school in the area though. Did you go to RIT? #
  • @dacort Did you enjoy your time in Rochester? #
  • http://snurl.com/1zhq7 What it looks like after you run "sudo rm -rf /" …Note: don’t try this. Trust me. #
  • @dacort If you said you enjoyed it I would have called you a liar. =P I will be thrilled to move else where when I graduate #

  • http://snurl.com/1zhvr Vista SP1 working activiation hack #

  • surprise, susprise. they are expecting some massive snow storm this afternoon/evening. odds we’ll get it? virtually zero. #
  • Death to Lotus Notes! Death I say! #
  • and the snow begins…I was hoping it’d wait for me to get home. #

  • clam chowder sounds like a great lunch on this cold cold day. #
  • Killing time before class, but not being very productive about it. #
  • Totally random, I just realized that Obama is left handed. #
  • I like when I check my work email, and don’t see anything new. That is a wonderful feeling. #
