I’m thinking of dressing up as sexy Noam Chomsky for Halloween.

Got my coffee. The world now has my permission to exist.

Rbenv, perlbrew, virtualenvwrapper set up. Hey, now all I need is an virtualshwrapper.

Per @vmbrasseur’s guidelines, I sent a “thanks but no thanks” reply to a recruiter email. Per my own guidelines, I kept it printable. ++me

Oh hey, and I wasn’t the only one to get by that particular recruiter email blast:

I wonder if the spoons analogy could be applied to attention span.

I enjoy retweeting random events from far off places - especially if fire is involved.

Twitter: 2013-10-28 Mon 12:15

I can’t tell if I’ve accomplished work or lowered my employer’s expectations over time, but either way: job well done.

“@mjkirk: There is more to programming than just websites” true! I’m just not getting paid for that other programming.

Carefully detangling classic evil CGI “do stuff; print stuff; do stuff; print stuff” flow. Some of it almost makes sense now.

The barista called me “ma’am.”

I bet I’m pretty today.

Oh yeah. First the filter, then the grounds.

Starting work on an Ember.js frontend for the hobby app, which should make it easier to move the app itself away from current Rails mess.

Yep. Confirmed that I still enjoy Python. And JavaScript. And Perl. And Ruby. I wish I discriminated a bit more.

If only it was that tidy. RT @MadLutian: @brianwisti Your mind is a code Benetton commercial. :)

Sometimes I make a random guttural noise walking down the street in reaction to the weather. People don’t seem to like that.

When I’m locked out of my desktop and my first thought is “layoffs,” we are reminded that I’m not actually an optimist

Got my soothing mix on: Clash and Gogol Bordello.

Sometimes I’m using an older Perl & wish I could use given/when. Then I remember that they’re considered broken & I’m just glad it’s Friday.

Thick fog and a low threshold for outrage throughout the day. This has been your emotional weather report.

“@TBlackford3: You know what they say - when you can’t beat ’em, get a huge metal pipe and try again.” Worked for me.

OH: “Put that thing back where it came from or so help me”

At least I now know what movie I want to watch tonight.

Sorry, boss. Didn’t have time to write the code. But look at all these elaborate new tests based on Monty Python skits!

Two days before the farmer’s market is open. Down to our last organic locally sourced apple. We might starve. Send quinoa.

Okay nobody panic but I just ate the last Asian pear in the apartment.

Adding salt to the soy sauce was probably excessive.

More caffeine, please.

My Python skills are a bit rusty and dusty. I think I’ll work on that in my copious free time.

Okay. Putting my hat in the refrigerator may not be the dumbest thing I’ve ever done. It is a bit dumb, though.

Somebody said something about Hooker News and for a second I was real excited because it would be a great resource for crochet enthusiasts.

Ah, thanks for the original context, @tedder42. The sad, depressing original context.

Spent 20 minutes skimming ~100 minutes of Apple event Twitter reactions. Much more entertaining than watching the event.

Mavericks upgrade has been at “less than a minute” fit about ten minutes. Time is an illusion.

Despite all my rage I am still just a dated reference to a bygone age.

I have several tabs open for work topics such as ActionScript and CVS. Perhaps not coincidentally, feeling a little depressed today.

Amazon sending me an email to sign up for Instant Prime while I’m watching a video on Instant Prime is an off moment for marketing.

Nice thing about the mortality rate on Walking Dead is that I don’t have to memorize a lot of new names. Oh yeah - spoiler alert.
