Some Twitter thoughts
August 6th, 2008 -- by Augie De Blieck Jr.
I haven’t compiled these in weeks. My bad. My very very bad. Let’s look at some of the highlights. As always, you can follow my daily Tweets at Twitter.com/augiedb.
- I’d be lost at Comic-Con anymore. I wouldn’t recognize all the big Hollywood stars people keep blogging that they ran into. I’m a lost cause
- Please don’t leave me a 30 second voice mail with your phone number AT THE END. Lead with it, so I can go back and hear again quickly.
- NBC is posting videos of their TV Comic-Con panels to their website. Nuke the fridge, baby. . .
- So very very tired. Will the madness never end? (It still hasn’t.)
- So, to sum up San Diego — bad weather for flights out on Wednesday. More bad weather for flights back Sunday. Glad I didn’t go. I think. (Nah, I still wish I was there.)
- Ugh. Mondays. Someone should do a comic strip about this feeling. Perhaps starring a fat cat. UGH
- Oooh, Lightroom 2.0 is now out. And only a $99 upgrade. Yay!
- Need to get my act together and buy the Lightroom 2.0 upgrade, stat! I have hundreds of pics that need processing, and cataloging! (Still haven’t bought it. I’m lame.)
- My new drug of choice: Home Depot. Stopping there makes me want to rewire the whole house, and then replace random flooring elements.
- Back to ironing while watching “Don’t Forget the Lyrics.” (Honestly, that was the first TV show I watched after a full week of not watching anything while trying to get the new house in order. It felt so good.)
- Done painting for the day. Now I have to troubleshoot the system that’s failing at work. I’m not sure which is worse.
- Troubleshooting is easy when NOBODY REPLIES TO YOUR QUESTIONS! ::sigh:: Thankfully, it can wait till tomorrow. It kinda has to. (And the next day, I discovered the trouble was with me, not the systems. Oh, cruel fate. . .)
- ‘Dark Knight’ made almost $45 million again this weekend, it’s THIRD weekend of release. Most movies would beg for that opening. Awesome.
- Monday. UGH. Wonder if I could get a book deal writing “VariousAndSundry.com Without Augie”? Or did that Garfield book ruin that market?
- Successfully completed first week of baby training class. It’s like watching ALIEN all over again, but with a human head. . .
- I was in a class with 10 pregnant women, all of whom wanted a rain check after seeing the birthing video.
- And everything is the man’s fault, of course! We are pure evil.
- I don’t need sleep — I need more time to do stuff. Crap. Rest wins again.
- Sometimes, no matter how much you think you have your stuff together, you just run later than you wanted to. Argh
- I love that “FAQ” is used in things like printed promotional brochures, not just the internet. I’m a geek
