listening to @FatherRoderick 's AudioBoo about his training for a marathon http://ping.fm/1fEAj #
goood morning! 🙂 #
Sesame Street about to start. And I'm about to put today's first load of laundry in. #
listening to internet radio. playing Flock of Seagulls "I Ran" http://bit.ly/5Tg6O
classic! #
listening to TWiT 210 "Banned In Sweden" http://twit.tv/210 interesting talk on Snow Leopard #
home from work. eating homegrown pineapple. Sweet! (literally!) #pabl #
listening to Great Speeches in History Podcast "Eulogy for Robert Kennedy" http://is.gd/2KonZ Had heard parts for years, but not all. #
finishing up reading "The Almost Hopeless Challenge Of Web Security" at TechCrunch http://is.gd/2KrhZ #
good night! #
good morning! (soon to be afternoon here) #
Katie is in for her nap (not quite asleep yet), I put a second load of wash, and looking into updating my forums http://ping.fm/sAZdM #
RT @BeatlesTweets: If you live in the USA, VH1 Classic has a Beatles retrospective show tonight with music videos and a screening of Help! #
RT @uncultured: After seeing these photos, I want to move to Switzerland – http://bit.ly/15wixU #
girls are in bed :). I feel fortunate that they do not put up a fuss when it's bedtime #
listening to @FatherRoderick 's "Traveling Light" AudioBoo as he's going to Hong Kong http://ping.fm/Qzx7J #
also trying to figure out how to upgrade my forums. It looks easy…. for me to mess up, lol. I think I know what to do now (X-ing fingers) #
RT @realjohngreen: I just finished @scottwesterfeld's LEVIATHAN. So fun, so brilliant. Trailer: http://bit.ly/yOXBp #
watching "Health Care Overhaul" cartoon using @realjohngreen 's audio from 1 of his earlier vids http://bit.ly/CLrYp #

good morning 🙂 #
watching Special Agent OSO w/ Katie http://ping.fm/WzHQb #
RT @poshmama: Just sayin' if you don't use soap it's not washing your hands but only rinsing them. #
Katie is in for her nap and quiet. And I'm cooking lunch and writing letters (yes, with pen and paper… card rather :D) #

listening to @leolaporte 's "Tech Guy" podcast http://twit.tv/ttg592 while taking care of lunch dishes #
trying to continue writing cards, but kids keep interrupting. Enjoying them going to bed is no mystery! lol #
Decided earlier that I would rough draft on the pc first before wasting a card. Times like now (Katie hanging on me) is one of the reasons. #
