Happy t day folks. Let’s eat.
Wait. Isn’t “Yo Gabba Gabba” a Ramones reference? This parade is confusing me.
Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s a deliberate Ramones reference. I may have discovered the best kid’s show ever.
Turkey & potatoes are in the oven. Setup dishes are cleaned & put away. Time for a short break.

So now that I’m on Google Wave I just need to remember what it was I wanted to do with it.
That’s just the sort of day it is: http://bit.ly/fQqC2
I shouldn’t have loaded Sifl & Olly on YouTube. In danger of losing all productivity. Closing tab now. Okay, now. No, seriously.
There appears to be leftover Halloween candy in the break room. Could be dangerous, but reserves are low. I’m going in.

Ready for work. Got laptop, knitting, pants … Oh wait. No pants yet.
I’ve lost enough weight to wear the 34" jeans with thermal underwear. I have not lost enough weight for it to be a good idea.
I think it’s time for Christmas music. How about The Pogues “Fairytale of New York”?: http://bit.ly/47CJnG

Sometimes my brain attempts its own autocompletion. However, perl Conifer.pl does not result in seeing the forest or the trees.
Zombie Outbreak Simulator: http://bit.ly/69GqHj Gets pretty ugly after 6 minutes on standard settings (via Reddit)
Updated #parrot babysteps for 1.8.0 (mainly installation instructions) http://bit.ly/4x9Q3A
Kinda brain dead on #parrot stuff right now. Maybe I’ll write about #rakudo next. Then again maybe sleep will help.

Trying Fireworks since the Gimp doesn’t support PSD layer groups & I don’t want to buy/steal Photoshop.
Wondering what the HTML entity escape for the interrobang might be, and whether Twitter supports it.
Fun crowd. I’m just saying - if you are going to see New Moon, see it surrounded by fans of the book. Much more entertaining.

Damp Seattle morning. Flogging Molly in the ears. Feeling just about right.
http://blogs.perl.org is great, but my writing seems to be limited to very short or very long. Haven’t got the hang of blogging.
Okay, now it’s time for The Dirtbombs.
Really appreciate being in #ff list of @toddschoonover and @CatSea1959, though I have no idea why. Follow them, too.

Looking at traffic & feeling happy I took the bus.
Yes. I forgot to turn iPhone sound off. Apologies to everyone on the bus for the noisy Twitter update sound.
spent the bus ride winding yarn. Would it be more butch if I was listening to korpiklanni? How about if I didn’t use the word “butch”?

Here’s how I get new music these days: hear it on Pandora/KEXP, look it up on Youtube, buy it on Emusic/Amazon. I heart the hive mind.
I think I’m better now.
Tried the Torchlight game tonight. It’s always fun to kill things and take their stuff. I think I’ll buy it.
Wait - no opportunity for insightful commentary for the #twitter retweet mechanism? I’ll stick with “RT”. Thanks, though.

Forgot my darning needle, so finishing this sock must wait until tonight.
Listening to Mighty Underdogs “Gunfight” & thinking of Firefly. Just one of those mornings.
Sorting complex values in #python is annoying.
Finally. coolnamehehere.com has an RSS feed.
Waiting for coworkers to head out for lunch so I can rifle through their things – I mean “deploy the application.”
