A collection of my twitter posts since last I summarized here. If I can figure out a way to have my tweets auto post to the blog, that would make quick posts easier.
New Xbox 360 upgrade = Windows 7 to Windows 3.1 downgrade.

Spending the weekend in DC visiting friends with Killian. Great day at the zoo & double decker bus tour. Beautiful weather for it.
23 Oct
Power 90 (pre-X) Day 1 complete. Starting fitness level estimated at 0.8%. I did not vomit. Classification = success. http://bit.ly/dxXNkS
13 Oct
Where does the "Yogi" in Yogi Bear come from?
18 Sep
Got to hand it to Apple. iPad navigation seems pretty intuitive for Killian.
16 Sep
I resisted buying Dungeon Lords all the way until Sunday night.

Nuc*U*lar remains an unacceptable pronunciation. Ugh!
9 Sep
I picked up an iPad this weekend. Not 100% sure I'll reap the full value of the purchase, but it's fun to play with initially at least.
7 Sep
What I lack in perfection I make up for in imperfection.
21 Aug
Killian just reached the closing credits in a video game for the first time. Props in his general direction. Mario Kart DS was the game.
21 Aug
Ugh. Good morning to you too, 40.
21 Aug
Taking Killian out skateboarding at his request. Woohoo!
15 Aug
I'm a little disappointed that I have never witnessed someone slipping on a banana peel in person. Going to have to up the littering quota.
14 Aug
Just threw away another almost 1/2 box of expired Q-tips. I'm going to have to figure out more uses for those things.
13 Aug
About to let Killian watch Harry Potter while I pass out on the couch. Ugh, summer cold. Bleh.
7 Aug
2nd fiendish lightning storm is < 24 hours. Yipes!
5 Aug
It's like saying "I'd love some Ho Ho's." and someone handing you a pack of Little Debbie Swiss Cake Rolls.
4 Aug
Dislike = men's shoes with any form of tassel
3 Aug
The word "cloister" is a fun one to say. Hard to bust out in everyday conversation but it's fun to pronounce.
3 Aug
Supplies have been assembled. Tomorrow is day 1 of 1st grade. Wow.
1 Aug
Just went and saw Inception. Engaging throughout. Didn't even feel like 2 1/2 hours. A good theater movie as well. Worth the matinee.
31 Jul
I don't know which direction you go, but Nature's Own bread twists are apparently opposed to my natural right twist tie inclination.
30 Jul
We saw Despicable Me last night. I definitely enjoyed it and Killian was interested, engaged and laughing throughout. A good time had.
29 Jul
The answer is "Discombobulation". Now to determine the question...
27 Jul

21 Jul
is not the bronze idol to thousands after a week at the beach thanks to SPF 70.
18 Jul
Despicable Me. Anybody seen it yet? Killian is asking to go and it looks pretty good.
17 Jul
I simply do not get Adventure Time.
17 Jul
So far this week I have managed to burn only the tops of my feet and then only slightly. Go sunscreen!
15 Jul
Killian: "I'm tired of my head being on my neck.". Glad we're not in France.
11 Jul
If at first you don't suck seed, try cupping the balls.
11 Jul
12:05am and 86 degrees. There's something entirely wrong with that.
8 Jul
Wii Fit, you shall pay for what you did to the physique of my poor Mii.
5 Jul
There is water at the bottom of the ocean.
5 Jul
For that matter, a shout out to the company we got the butterflies from: Butterfly Releases By S ( www.ButterflyReleasesByS.com ).
30 Jun
100% success on the butterfly release for Bobbie's birthday. Whew!
30 Jun
Roller skating rink birthday party this weekend was a resounding success, I think. Just about everyone, kids *and* parents, seemed to enjoy.
28 Jun
Wow. Cupcake Pebbles. That sounds some kind of nasty. Bleh!
28 Jun
Ugh. *So* glad this is the last day of T-ball!
26 Jun
I like the look of the Saturn SKY.
25 Jun
Whew! Rough day for a school picnic. And tomorrow is their field day! Ugh.
24 Jun
Red Dead Redemption. It's good stuff.
23 Jun
Woohoo!
19 Jun
Bleh. *WAY* to hot for T-ball practice.
14 Jun
Today was much "the suck" with very brief shining moments.
13 Jun
And now I have just been told that "Actually, IV is the last one." So apparently Whale's fate will remain a mystery.
13 Jun
Apparently episode V will take place in a different country and Whale gets killed by Shark in episode VI and "never comes back".
13 Jun
Bath time tonight featured "Karate Shark and Whale IV", I was told. I've learned that they are enemies and got a preview for episode VI.
13 Jun
I'd say that I've had just about enough Exchange migration effort for the weekend/week/month. Good grief, it's never ending!
13 Jun
Just completed my annual physical. I'm a healthy 45 year old man at age 39 5/6.
10 Jun
Rockstar Games must be pretty damned proud of their skinning cut scenes in Red Dead Redemption. They sure do love to show them over & over.
9 Jun
A rediscovery of a passing interest in calligraphy (specifically the writing thereof) has been fun over the past couple of days.
9 Jun
People that wear driving gloves in their car around town make me laugh. Especially if they are talented comedians.
5 Jun
1) Your own driveway. 2) Hospital Emergency room.
5 Jun
Exhaustive list of places it is ok to park like a jackass:
5 Jun
When both eyes are on the same side of your face, only then can you truly flounder. Of course, fins and tastiness help as well.
5 Jun
Killian created a new TV show, theme song included, in the bath last night: "Karate Shark and Whale".
31 May
This Zach & Cody seem quite likely to have long careers... in "Where are they now?" or "Whatever happened to...?" specials.
28 May
Captain Kirk's nipples I'm glad there is no T-ball tomorrow morning. I am *so* looking forward to this 3 day weekend.
28 May
Grr... SharePoint 2003...
27 May
Recommencing Lost season 3.
25 May
Oof. Monkey Joe's + Saturday = (surprise) that's a lot o' kids!
22 May
Tball, errands & now pizza for lunch with the boy. Birthday party at Monkey Joe's up next on the agenda.
22 May
Truly, I shall never likely understand you who enjoy the yard work.
21 May
Ugh, grass mowing, truly you are my nemesis.
21 May
Being transferred to support person that does "log analysis". Pretty sure that's a fecal matter expert. Oh, poop humor, you are priceless.
18 May
No fun = a pleasant sounding 75 degrees in the sun + 62% humidity at 9:30am. I am so not ready for summer.
15 May
And Tball game 1 begins at 8:30am.
15 May
Got a fancy new BlackBerry 8530 Curve at work today. Still not sure between it and the 8830. Not digging the trackpad yet.
14 May
A recital is *totally* different without the "i". Read very carefully next time you are invited to one.
14 May
Toilet trees must be some of the least happy trees there are.
12 May
T-ball first practice complete. Hot but not unbearable. Definitely entertaining to watch. Killian chose 1st base as a starting position.
8 May
had to spend a decent part of the early evening explaining to Killian that Hell does not likely exist.
6 May
Rollerskating for the first time at length since... 1983? Killian's 1st time.
1 May
Just bought Killian his 1st T-ball glove and rollerblades. The rollerblades are an overdue Christmas gift.
1 May
Make-up snow day for Killian today. Made for quite a nice nap slot. Aahhh...
1 May
Of course, it is yet to be seen if they actually fixed the problem. Here's hoping.
30 Apr
Surprise from HP. PC returned to me with replaced motherboard yesterday. That's 4 days after I dropped it at FedEx on its way to HP.
30 Apr
I have recently learned that I am apparently a antitransubstantiationalist.
29 Apr
I've decided to start leaving the "r" out of throngs and start using the word in context but far too frequently.
29 Apr
You know that part in Forest Gump where he starts running & his leg braces break away? That totally didn't happen to me today.
28 Apr
Got a survey from my electric co. with $1 inside as incentive to complete it with an est. of 15-20 mins. Guess they value me at $3-$4/hr.
27 Apr
They issued a recall on my vehicle today. Finally! I've been complaining about "soft" brakes for 2 years now at least.
26 Apr
Goodbye, PC. I'll see you in about 2 weeks (hopefully) with a reformatted hard drive no doubt. = Warranty repair for those about to ask.
25 Apr
"Making sure it smells good so I don't have a stinky day tomorrow.". - Killian after sniffing the bar of soap in the shower.
25 Apr
just remembered something.
22 Apr
Had to wake Killian up at 9:45am. Aww yeah...
11 Apr
Bruce Buffer, you are no Michael.
10 Apr
Being home so far has meant cutting grass, errands, laundry, dishes, vacuuming and sweeping. Definitely back to reality. :(
10 Apr
Nap = great idea. Wonderful time at Downtown Disney. Now the tricky part of getting him back to sleep for the night.
9 Apr
Sea World today. Now headed to Downtown Disney after a nap for a bit of shopping. Tired Killian made for a slightly rough day at the park.
8 Apr
Killian & I had a great day 3 at Hollywood Studios & Epcot. Killian met 5 Power Rangers today as his highlight.
7 Apr
Back to Hollywood Studios today. So far, so great!
7 Apr
Magic Kingdom was officially UNfun today. *Obscenely* overcrowded. Character dinner at Chef Mickey, however, was a HUGE hit!
6 Apr
No full-on Internet access at Fort Wilderness & WiFi signal iPhone is sucking pretty hard.
6 Apr
60 minute wait time for Dumbo ride. Ugh.
6 Apr
Disney day 1 complete. Whew! Days 2-4 are gonna hurt. :)
5 Apr
Getting ready to watch Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios in Disney.
5 Apr
The eagle has landed. We are now entering Central Florida.
4 Apr
At the airport awaiting departure. http://tweetphoto.com/17112272
4 Apr
Apparently, knowledge that he departs for Disney World tomorrow will keep a 5 year old up well beyond his bedtime. Surprise.
4 Apr
Only 1 more day before Disney departure.
2 Apr
"Dicketry" retains it's status as a comical term to me.
31 Mar
Pet peeve: The use of the preposition "at" to end a sentence. So painful to hear or read.
29 Mar
Let the Disney countdown begin. 6...
29 Mar
First lawn, er... weed, mowing of the year complete. Blah do I abhor this activity.
28 Mar
Terrible parent or coolest dad ever, I watched Raiders of the Lost Ark with Killian tonight. Best quote: "He looks just like Han Solo."
27 Mar
Yeesh. *Another* Monday?!? What a week.
26 Mar
A thank you to Mr. Harrison for this little tidbit: http://tinyurl.com/yfn79wk
22 Mar
Wow. Karen Carpenter. What a voice.
18 Mar
Yeah, he's definitely off his rocker, and you know how difficult rockers are to stay on. http://tinyurl.com/yhmuurk
15 Mar
Started Sons of Anarchy today - season 1, disc 1. Good so far. Getting ready to watch the first episode of The Pacific now.
14 Mar
Finished The Wire series. Enjoyed it thoroughly and suggest it if you are so inclined to watch.
14 Mar
I don't exactly know why, but I have always found the cover art for Dead Like Me to be very clever. http://tinyurl.com/yeutscy
12 Mar
Commencing the last disc of the final season of The Wire. Kind of sad.
10 Mar
Initial diagnosis = sinus infection with drainage as likely cause of vomiting. Antibiotics to be retrieved shortly and then off to school.
9 Mar
Pediatrician appt at 11:30am. Hopefully it will be something minor.
9 Mar
Another stomach purging midnight wake up call for the little guy. First time since Friday night. Poor kid. Going to call the doc in the AM.
9 Mar
Indeed it does.
7 Mar
Well, Killian made it until just after midnight. Guess I should have stuck to the BRAT diet through dinner. Yuck. :(
6 Mar
I should definitely know better than to say it out loud, but I dropped Killian off at school at 10am and not a word from them yet. Woohoo!
5 Mar
Indeed I spoke too soon. I now share your vehicular fun, Rebekah. Guess the trip for Gatorade wasn't such a good idea.
4 Mar
I'm sure I'm speaking too soon, but so far, so good on no additional events since this morning's symptomatic display for Killian.
4 Mar
Killian is home sick with stomach virus symptoms today. Awesome.
