Twitter Updates for 2008-08-08

  • @feliciaday I use canned air, mostly. #
  • I think FTL will *always* be “faster than light” to me, which makes reading it funny when meant otherwise. #
  • It’d be like using WTF to mean, say, “we’re trend followers.” #
  • Missing my music headphones. Thinking I should test cheesy microphone headset for cord length to see if they can work for dictation. #
  • Testing vista dictation, which doesn’t seem to work directly in twitter via FireFox so I am copying and pasting from wordpad. #
  • Clarification on the headset think Deb has been borrowing them. So they are hooked to her computer. #
  • Vista’s built-in dictation is remarkably good, easy to handle after supporting Dragon so long, but allows no text dictation in Mozilla… #
  • based text fields, meaning a textbox in Twitter or in w.bloggar using the Mozilla rather than IE engine. #
  • OTOH it excels at commands. On Blogblivion I was able to say “click Lintefiniel Musings” and it opened the right thing on the blogroll. #
  • I should try Twitter in IE with Vista voice recognition… #
  • This is a test from Internet explorer where naturally dictating into Twitter works just fine. #
  • Ready to be taken away from all this. #
  • Just spent several minutes locked in bedroom away from kids, Val was being so hysterical for nothing. #
  • Really feeling the lack of sleep and crappy sleep today, on top of being mildly sicked. #
  • Sadie talking to self about “going to the pool” reminded me to confirm that we are indeed supposed to meet people for same tomorrow. #
  • Just discovered Bizosphere achieved PR of 6, up from 5. Blown away. #
  • One dropped from 4 to 3, and 2 that were 5 & dropped to 3 stayed, but 4 domains that were 4 went to PR5. #
  • My nephew’s domain that was 3 if www and 0 if not now registers as 3 either way. Thought to look after someone at Google visited bizosphere. #
  • Wish the office weren’t the preferred place to play for the kids. #
  • @pixxiespaz It was rumored maybe Saturday too… #
  • @pixxiespaz Just heard from @sharone75 it’s not definite & she never got response from @Shurakai about pool in Carver. Ry told me Sunday. #
  • @pixxiespaz Anyway, Sunday for sure if nothing weird happens, and even if car probs someone’d come get us. #
  • Feeling victorious about having fed the kids before they could melt down. Even if Henry disliked shredded wheat intensely. #
  • @Ithildyn “I’m just a bystander in my own brain” is the stuff of great taglines or quotables. #
  • @pixxiespaz It’s centered on cookout food which Jimmy usually cooks, plus more to it than bad cooking… #
  • @pixxiespaz traditionally her cooking us great but she lost her touch & sense of food safety with age. The lasagna thing… #
  • @pixxiespaz Lasagna used to be huge big deal & she was good at & took great pains but now shortcuts etc but stuck… #
  • @pixxiespaz back in days of ppl freaking over omg it’s lasagna rarity + made super well. Make bunch quick to freeze meh. #
  • @pixxiespaz As for gram, no idea why but starting b4 gramp went into nursing home I noticed it was a tossup as to… #
  • @pixxiespaz eating their Sunday would mean fecal enthusiasm Monday, like about 1/3 to 1/2 the time. Still true though #
  • @pixxiespaz if anything LESS likely since my mother moved there, like 1/3 or less. #
  • That was a long nap. Nice to have my office back! Except it’d be stupid to stop what I’m doing in the kitchen just yet, so back to it… #
  • @Shurakai Nope, she is home! Snacking and pondering a nap. #
  • @Shurakai Were you planning to stop here per usual and stuff? You never replied to my e-mail earlier in week. #
  • @pixxiespaz Noonish is about the right answer. Safe to get there anywhere after about 11 probably. #
  • @Shurakai Yes. You’ve seen the place at its worst, and it’s hardly that. Was just trying to figure out what to make for supper. #
  • That was fun. At least the power came back fast. #
  • I should probably make sure my Win2k machine is well backed up Real Soon Now. It was built when P3 1 GHz was ooh, aahhh. #
  • @feliciaday I’ve seen worse, but that’s up there. #
  • A shame Val is feverishly sick & sleeping. Turned on opening ceremonies because I thought she in particular would enjoy the spectacle. #
