Updates for the week of 2009-12-06

  • Me and @daphneun are bad at math. For instance: 6(am) + 10 (minute snooze) = OMFG IS THAT THE TIME?!? #
  • http://twitpic.com/rgace – Annnnnnd… Fog. #
  • RT @exedore6 RT @MotG: Dear Diaspora publishers. Please, please, please publish a PDF. I want very much to throw (more) money at you. #
  • Pretty tired of being in the car. And fast food. Four hours to go. #
  • 50123k. 3k today. (+20k in #nanowrimo essays) Half hr from home. @daphneun drove more today than she EVER has in 1 stretch, to let me write. #
  • Mom, via text: "Dad said today: 'Doyce can really write, isn't it something?!'" #stupidgrin #
  • Guys, @ChuckWendig does the ideal "last day of Nanowrimo" post here: http://tinyurl.com/ybm7w9a #terribleminds #nanowrimo — Go. Read. #
  • Screw Key Key Ring Screwdriver http://tinyurl.com/op9ala – dunno if I should order these for stocking stuffers or ME ME ME. #
  • What the hell is Cyber Monday? Explain it with small words, cuz I'm an MMO player and that phrase means something VERY DIFFERENT to me. #
  • Okay, so Cyber Monday is like… pretty much every day for me. Good to know. #
  • Surprised kitten is surprised (http://j.mp/8Huaas) – I'm not a cat person, but… #
  • pirate ninja carebear http://flic.kr/p/7jAphs #
  • I have just started playing with, and am really loving, Brizzly: http://bit.ly/4AUdlh #
  • Adrift: Correction: the main question is actually ‘Are we about to die?’ Signs (by which I m.. http://bit.ly/4Dwj6L #
  • RT @ChuckWendig: @wordwill writes a perfect haiku: "The smell of fall leaves / has me dreading the day that / the smell of fall leaves." #
  • RT @BarelyKnit: Something for everyone, indeed. It's Hill Billie Jean! http://bit.ly/3uuJx #
  • Writers, listen: @ChuckWendig dishes on "Crap Habits Of A Highly Ineffective Professional Writer." Dig it. http://tinyurl.com/ylnrdat #
  • Crap, I didn't get today's podcast recorded this weekend, due to the not-being-here-ness. That's going to make things interesting. #
  • It's amazing how much more time I have to work on my writing now that I'm not doing NaNoWriMo. #
  • Adrift: The turret’s raking the area with what looks like… well, it’s a Particle Proje.. http://bit.ly/6ildBU #
  • Thanks! Recording and posting one tonight. RT @portaldoc: Very, very, very sick. Thanks to @doycet and his "Adrift" podcasts, smiling. #
  • Adrift: Episode 8 (podcast) (http://j.mp/8fN0R1) – Pointing this out, since it dropped super-late. #
  • Twitter-length review of The Road: Very good read. Ending did not /quite/ hit me where I live the way I'd expected. #
  • Icy roads + Roundabouts = Exciting way to meet people. Think I'll stay inside for lunch. #
  • Another loss for gay rights. Fucking depressing. #
  • Really interesting conversation with my optometrist today. Smart guy. #
  • Adrift: At this range, a PPC is almost ridiculously lethal. Likely installed just for intimidation, thou.. http://bit.ly/5aAjh2 #
  • Ahh hahahahaa. @finnras got retweeted by a bunch of 'SEO gurus'. He mentioned a Particle Projection Cannon, and PPC is also "Pay Per Click". #
  • RT @wordwill: Today's soup is cream of shut the fuck up and wait your turn. With wild rice. #
  • I like having a DVR; it lets me ignore shows I 'should' be watching all the time, instead of just a single hour a week. Efficiency! #
  • Today's lunch: the last of @chuckwendig's Stuffed Squash recipe (which I mention simply to link to again: http://is.gd/52Y3B ) #
  • Deep wisdom from @maureenjohnson: Q: @BrisOwnWorld "What is the safe word count a first time novelist should aim for?" A: "Twelve." #
  • My arch-nemeses: It's and Its. *shakes fist* #
  • Off to teach a class. If only I were more comfortable in front of people. #
  • Adrift: We should be dead by now. We aren’t. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s because t.. http://bit.ly/5m7zfK #
  • Started reading "On Writing" again today. From the start, without cherry picking. So damned good. #
  • E-Volution (http://j.mp/4QgJM8) – This, right here, is the future I want to live in. How can I help make it happen? #
  • Adrift: “Not dead” doesn’t mean “out of harm’s way”. The PPC slags p.. http://bit.ly/8vhQ2q #
  • Two long days of dayjob in a row, cutting into my daughter time. Really starting to suck. Need me some hugs. #
  • I've said this before: Enver Gjokaj is the best thing going on Dollhouse. Actually? On Television. The guy is a chameleon doppelganger. #
