  • Wow. 50 dollar annual fee is the ONLY charge on this credit card for the past 12 months. 1. Maybe I don't need the card. 2. FIFTY BUCKS? #

  • Who’s the Biggest Loser in E-Books? (http://j.mp/hzP7Jq) – Need to remember to discuss this math with a couple agents I know… #

  • *googles "treating baby with a head cold"* *grumbles* #
  • My Droid2 is kinda hot, and not in the "I am ready for your make-outs" kinda way — more of a "why are my fingers blistering?" way. #
  • Little Man's first head cold is… about as much fun as I remember. #
  • My actual Twitter page's filled with vapid little 'inspirational' RTs. "Huh. Didn't see those on Brizzly…" Oh. Right. RTer is muted there. #

  • On Turning 40 (http://j.mp/eBouaK) – "No, you just DO that now…" #
  • Naming my Mabari warhound "Templar", while personally amusing, does not bring clarity to the virtual battlefields of #dragonage2 #hindsight #
  • RT @GeorgeTakei: Former SNL star Victoria Jackson thinks Glee is turning boys gay. I think Victoria Jackson is more to blame for that. #
  • Why hasn't someone done an ME2 hack for the Dragon Age TTRPG. Provide for me, internet, sheesh. #
  • Mass Effect 2's still my favorite Bioware thing, but DA2's good. Every voice actor in video games from now on should be Welsh. Just saying. #
  • Least I Could Do: 2011-03-25 (http://j.mp/fas3v9) – This is, in fact, how I greet all visitors. Even the guy selling roofing this afternoon. #

  • At the movies with @DaphneUn, sans children. How did this happen?!? How can we make it happen again? #
  • Went to see The Adjustment Bureau. Good movie. I find it fascinating/sad that Philip K Dick struggled so much as a writer. Timeless themes. #
  • I've always hated daylight savings time, but never so much as when I have a newborn's schedule to reset. #shootmenow #
  • It's the 'small' in Japan that hurts. Husbands looking for wives. Parents looking for kids. They are living my nightmare. Breaks my heart. #
  • PLEX for Good: EVE Players Donate In-game Funds to Real-world Disaster Relief (http://j.mp/e9vdMu) – MMO Reporter. #
  • Pretty decent night with Sean — once asleep, he tends to stay that way — the GETTING to sleep doesn't always gel, though. Rough evening. #
  • In which Tolkein talks about… today. http://amzn.com/k/9SOWAZKROM7I #Kindle #
  • What a fantastically shitty little day. #
  • Coworker brought in Lucky Charms. And milk. And bowls. #pinkhearts #orangestars #yellowmoons #greenclovers #bluediamonds #awesome #

  • RT @apelad: Sleep is so boring. They don't even have internet there. #
  • Well, the good news is I remembered to preorder Dragon Age 2. Umm… twice. Oops. #
  • RT @ChuckWendig: "Lies Writers Tell." To themselves and their loved ones. Any sound familiar to you? http://bit.ly/hfU5vr #terribleminds #
  • Nigh perfect sausage and crawfish gumbo for lunch today. And now, delicious foodcoma. #fattuesday #
  • I've been thinking and talking about this topic a lot today, and I find myself in love with this logo: http://bit.ly/ibwVA0 #
  • Word-making today. Lots of making the clackity-noise, as they say: http://bit.ly/aZnVbJ #
  • Comic book picture frame (http://j.mp/ia1mwZ) – Yeah. I pretty much want 23 of these. #
  • Messing around with Doodle.com – scheduling for when you're working with enough people that coordinating gets stupid-hard. I like it! #
  • Going to play Pilgrims of the Flying Temple tonight. The masters are handing us *several* letters. We must decide who to 'help' first. #
  • Wow. Almost two hours on the shortest of the 'Do:' letters in the game tonight. Very fun; can't wait to write it out. #
  • Pity @weedatheevil and @cyface, who endured a blast of geek babble tonight. House/baby-ridden = chatter has built up a month of pressure. #
  • Good News Day: found out Kaylee got into a k-12 charter school even our friend who teaches in public schools suggested she try for. #
  • Random Average: Actual Play of Do: Pilgrims of the Flying Temple — “Swallowed Whole” http://bit.ly/el1w0p #

  • Okay, @bafadam and @LuciasM, you've played Dread, right? Dread gave me ideas for Yikerz, which is basically Jenga, backwards. #
  • Related: in what genre(s) does repeated activity of the same type (combat, romance, etc) guarantee eventual badness? (DRYH is not a genre :) #
  • I take a perfectly innocent and fun game (Yikerz!) and do unnatural RPG things to it. Come see! http://bit.ly/e0Koor #
  • Random Average: Yikerz: the game, and mulling over an RPG hack http://bit.ly/hHTwyg #
  • General consensus tonight was that I pick on my son a lot. Still, if I weren't so tired it wouldn't be as funny, so really it's his fault. #

  • Nice afternoon driving around with @daphneun and Beauregard, running errands and burning neighbors' flags to the ground in #ParallelKingdom #
  • The usual debate about whether my 'around the house' clothes are still clean or due for a wash has been VASTLY simplified by Sean's 'input'. #
  • Quality morning wake up time with Sean. He gets the swingchair, I get the elliptical. #virtuous #sweatandspitup #
  • Heading-in-early virtue donkeypunched by forgot-my-keycard-and-have-to-go-back stupidity. #frakkityfrakfrak #
  • The caf oatmeal is not as good as the stuff I make at home in my rice cooker. Downside: meh breakfast. Upside: *my* oatmeal is GOOD. #
  • Droid's integrated support for Exchange mail servers, Lesson #1 Just use the Touchdown app instead. Damn it's good. #
  • Okay, whoever set out the box of Lemon Chalet Cremes that was ACTUALLY EMPTY? I hate you. #girlscoutusinterruptus #
  • On MMO Reporter – Parallel Kingdom: How Did I Not Know About This? – http://bit.ly/hE7ND7 #

  • Me: Half the internet saw the "Sexual Content" warning relating to Felicia Day (DA: Redemption trailer) and shivered in joy. [1/2] #
  • Her: No, we all shivered. Half of us just managed to conceal it. [2/2] (Man I love my wife.) #
  • On Hitting (http://j.mp/h62V3W) – Some good fuel for story-pondering, as well. #
  • China bans unauthorized Tibetan reincarnation (http://j.mp/fBQRLU) – Why hello there, my next story idea. #
  • Hmm. Boingboing.net pulled that reincarnation article. Here's the original: http://thetim.es/i4kgrg #
  • 1. I have too many Twitter accounts. 2. They are all attached to the wrong email addresses. 3. Yeah. Too many twitter accounts. #
  • ET-X: Kind of awesome – http://bit.ly/ejauP3 #
  • My Twitter Diaspora might be an extension/reflection of the fact that I'm spread too thin throughout the internet in general, right now. #
  • (My definition of "too thin" being that I'm writing daily for several sites, but haven't touched my own blogs in a month or more. ) #
  • Brilliant – RT @cpat71: @doycet Am I the only one laughing that you had to re-post an article about reincarnation after the old one died? #
  • RT @FakeAPStylebook: Use the mehxclamation point, ¡, to show how unexciting something is. Example: Eventually, the snail race began¡ #
  • Trying to work through post lunch food coma. Linkin Park helping, but they may need backup. #
  • Morning workout and breakfast with Second Child. Now it's off to the batcave for editing, reviews, and other #shenanigans #
  • In news that will surprise exactly noone who's ever met me, experts have confirmed that my hearing really, really sucks. #
  • Judging from the Twitters today, most people didn't know I'm half-deaf. They just figured I was a dick. #yay #
  • Doctor Who MMO? FanTAStic! (http://bit.ly/gMXVDs) – squeal of geeker joy #
  • 4 Years Later: A Newbie's Return to EVE Online — http://bit.ly/ejLcWz — #tweetfleet #eveonline #

  • #Brizzly I would LOVE it if you'd remember that I've already seen all 'mentions', and stopped telling me I have new ones when i don't. #
  • So, all SIDS information says 'your infant must sleep on their back'. Sure. Got it. Problem: Sean only actually SLEEPS when on his stomach. #
  • Thanks for the support and suggestions, guys — I know no parents are ever the only ones with a given problem, but it helps to hear it. #
  • Expuberance (http://bit.ly/h8szv1) – I was trying to remember this phrase just a few days ago… #
  • Little man has a batman utility belts worth of Gastrointestinal tricks to pull out for our enjoyment and education. #
  • Also I highly recommend Swiftkey's predictive typing and voice recognition Droid app. Perfect for 1 handed tweeting. #
  • Any voice recognition that hears 'batman utility belt' and then actually types 'batman utility belt' is worth the money. #

  • My major regret from my parent's (too short) visit: we didn't have time to get the usual suspects over to play Turkey Foot. #
  • Tomorrow will mark the first evening with no guests in the house since a week before Sean D was born. #
  • It is AWESOME that so many people are spamming NIV quotes with the #toc hashtag and making Tools of Change impossible to follow. #notawesome #
  • RT @toc: The official tag of the O'Reilly TOC Conference is #toccon #
  • This year, I managed to get my dad a birthday present he wanted and seems to enjoy. That happens about once a decade, so I'm enjoying it. #
  • I'm sometimes overwhelmed by a task's magnitude. In this case: finding a card encompassing @daphneun's b-day/v-day excellence. #itistoomuch #
  • Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. *snrk* huzzah? wha? zzzzzzzzzzzzz… #vdaypotluck #
  • South Dakota Moves To Legalize Killing Abortion Providers | Mother Jones (http://j.mp/gPwTOn) – I'm ashamed. #
  • Would Shakespeare tweet? (http://j.mp/e2GHeS) – I'm trying to think of anything the AG has done or said that I've respected… #
  • I cannot express with words how awesome @AgentShana is, and expressing things with words is What I Do. #agentappreciation #
  • Felicia Day breathes fire into 'Dragon Age' series – USATODAY.com (http://j.mp/gdchBW) – Brilliant. #
  • People, this book: http://amzn.to/g0BNu1 – a CSI instructional workbook with – no joke – scratch and sniff inserts for crime scene smells. #
  • RT @glyneth: Don't like NewTwitter? Tell them why! http://svy.mk/eN81Ua #
  • RT @jamesbridle: Accessibility is one of the best, least refutable arguments against DRM and closed platforms. #toccon <- Yes. This. #
  • Book light lets baby sleep through nighttime diaper changes (http://j.mp/gxo8yb) – Digs out book light. #
  • This weekend, @daphneun (repeatedly) tried to start a flickr slideshow by tapping the laptop screen. We've been using our Droids a LOT. #
  • Looks like it was a really nice day today.

    *stares out the window*

    Was it? #

  • All of my notes on how last night's feedings went are being written as Burning Wheel terminology. I miss gaming. #

  • RT @rdonoghue: Dagnabit Green Ronin, I want to give you my money NOW!!! http://bit.ly/gmUSHx #
  • Man… babies. Am I right? #
  • I mean, when it doesn't suck, it's pretty awesome. Babies, I mean. Awesome. When they don't suck. #
  • I don't mean suck as in 'on bottles', obviously. That's okay. I mean suck as in "Why am I awake again? What is that horrible noise?" #
  • Sleep. Yeah. That stuff is nice. Wow. Yeah. I should have some. #
  • The biggest challenge to the baby's bedtime is getting him to burp. That is going to be SO ironic in a couple years. #
