- 14:46 Either coming down with a cold, or allergic to @SmallestWidget and @ThatGizmo. Achoo! #
- 18:23 Still annoyed that this isn't cataloged correctly. bit.ly/4jvih8 It's the coolest book and is completely unfindable with a search! #
- 18:26 Details: mult bks bound together. Digitized The Adamite as part of Project Unica. But catalog entry is for another bk in the shared binding. #

- 16:25 I question the rhetorical skillz of area writers: "That line grew into a behemoth salamander that stretched back to Merry Ann's diner." #
- 16:26 I've often heard lines compared to centipedes. But *salamanders*? #
- 23:08 twitpic.com/jkkto - Angle brackets, hell yeah. #

- 17:29 Been back to 98.6 for a few hours. Does that mean I can go to the show? #
- 18:14 Ok, I'm going to chance that if I feel well enough to go I'm well enough not to be contagious. #

- 14:53 It's three in the afternoon? Seriously? Where did the day go? #

- 13:37 Cats are *so* weird. RT @TomatoNation Human Cat Perch bit.ly/EErcV #
- 14:07 One reason I love Twitter more than Facebook. No one over here is asking me to join Viking clans, or the mafia, or weed their farm. #
- 14:33 Uh oh. We have work t-shirts now. The next logical step is that there will be some event to which we are all "requested" to wear them. #

- 11:43 If, as you claim, you are in line at Panera, please move closer than 10 feet to the register and get off the dang PHONE. #
- 15:04 Got myself right with the law (renewed auto registration), got a good passport photo taken, and got my box of tutus from eBay. Sweet! #
- 15:05 And am apparently still 5 years old at heart, because I squealed and grinned when I opened the box to find it full of tulle. #
- 15:15 I also may have hugged the tutus. Maybe. #
- 18:45 Anyone else noticed that Twitter msgs seem to be showing up late today? I feel like a lot didn't show up when they were first posted. #
