• Twitter switching maint to the middle of US day to reduce impact of downtime on Iranian users. Outstanding decision, Twitterfolk. /salute #
• Turns out that the interviews going on for the last few weeks downtown were a waste of time/camouflage for an internal hiring. Bah. #
• Writing people: check out WriteMonkey again. Pure word processor, wiki-style formating, write-or-die-like timer/quota, .doc export. Love? #
• And hat tip to @rdonoghue for suggesting it both this week and last month. (Rob, I’ve been using on my netbook all morning. Most excellent.) #
• Re: @ElanaJ Yeah… in my experience, the 12th time through edits is just the end of the honeymoon phase. in reply to ElanaJ #

• Tired but smiling after a weekend play-cation. Excellent Mouse Guard game on Saturday, and lots of fun in Middle Earth with @dapheun. #
• Joining a Twitter group. http://twibes.com/LOTRO?v=1 – I keep hoping twibes will … you know… accomplish something. #

• Got the ASUS 1000he this evening. Battery won’t charge. I think I just dropped a big chunk of change to have an new netbook RMA’d. Fuck. #
• RMA: fine for later failures, but I can return the thing to Amazon, get my money back, & get a new 1 in 1/3rd the RMA’s time. #asus #netbook #
• I’ve been spell-corrected on twitter. Westley told me ROUSes didn’t exist. #
• This broken Asus netbook thing really makes me sad. Ironically, I chose this one for the battery life, and it doesn’t. fucking. work. #
• Yep. Asus support says I have to RMA the whole bloody thing for this battery problem. (Or… return to AMZ.) Upside: fast suppost response. #
• RT @glecharles RT @drewmaniac: Today is #followfriday. Don’t make long lists of names. Give me a recommendation & tell me why. Be USEFUL. #
• What? Amazon will send me a replacement netbook BEFORE I send the original back? See… THIS is why I welcome our new robot overlords. #
• Anyone know of a word processor that takes raw text and formats it based on ascii symbols, wiki-style? Frex: *bold* or /italics/. #
• For #followfriday, I recommend @VeryShortStory, which delivers exactly what’s advertised on the tin. Good stuff. in reply to VeryShortStory #
• Re: word processor q: I want a w.p. that does the same thing as GTalk (props: @cyface), so I can write in metapad but ‘do’ formatting. in reply to cyface #
• Dear Amazon: you’re not only replacing my netbook, but doing so via 1-day shipping, w/ clear return instructions and apology. *manly tears* #
• Rain falling in the afternoon sunshine. Beautiful. #

• Nothing like a call to poison control to really wake you up. #
• To be fair, if I had BEEN fully awake, I probably would have avoided the events that led to calling poison control in the first place. #
• RT @rdonoghue Bookmarklet to make the web more readable – http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/ – Rob, this is awesome. Thank you. #
• I am ALL SET to reveal a really good reason to head home early, assuming the new netbook ARRIVES and gives me a REASON for DECEPTION. #
• Adrift: Looks like he’s too confused to resort to violence. I tell him we’re off to earn his .. http://tinyurl.com/mzl3t5 #
• Sending off the end of the work day with a little hard-rocking ukulele. Yes, it exists. It DOES. Shut UP. No YOU. *huff* #
• Salmon, cheddar cheese mashed potatos, fresh carrots and zucchini… Washed down with a Boddingtons and lovely talk with @daphneun. Bliss. #

• Samhain/Halloween has faith-significance for some. For me/current story: more useful as the time to cull herds; when the dark months begin. #
• RT: @angelajames: The Truth About Twitter (“it’s not about how many followers you have”) http://bit.ly/VyzSi #
• No problem @glecharles: I think I’m going to load my new eee netbook with eeebuntu, so expect posts on the subject in coming weeks. in reply to glecharles #
• Filling moleskine up with notes for Hidden Things… revision? Can I call it that? No one’s asking for ‘different’/’better’ – just ‘more’. #
• RT: @weedatheevil: Ah yes, Summer in the Rockies — the sun, the blue sky…the tornados. #
• RT: @DaphneUn: This may be my new favorite YouTube video: http://bit.ly/eZVah Thanks, @megcabot! #

• Really, it’s unfair that my eyes and nose burn like this without an accompanying coke habit. Stupid allergies. Stupid cottonwood trees. #

• Agent sent feedback on WIP this morning. /Damn/ them for putting the thing back in my hands with much work to do, and being /right/. #
• The final version of this story better be mf-ing GENIUS, is all I’m saying. Someone see to it… I’m going to have a lie-down. #
• To those as asked: my (brilliant) lit agent is not @daphneun (who is also brilliant). She suffers enough without having having to rep me. #
