This week in Tweets

March 8, 2009 TechyDad This Week in Tweets

Wondering how much snow we have. Here in The Cave (aka my windowless office) I can’t tell if we have a dusting, 1 inch, 6 inches, or a foot. #
RT @HighTechDad: I love the Dr. Seuss Google image! – http://www.google.com <= I *LIKE* this logo in a box. I *LIKE* this logo w/ a fox. 😉 #
I’m doing three different things at once right now. Ok, I have 2 different scripts running & a log analyzer program doing all the work. #
Of course, all of these automated scripts/programs are slowing my computer so that *I* can’t personally do any work right now. #
Bank declined my car loan because of fraud alert on my credit. Need to call them to clear it. Ah the fun of being an identity theft victim. #
Being transferred to Dealer Services. Hopefully this is just a small bump & not a sign of a frell-up w/ my credit that I didn’t know about. #
Ok, everything set. What happened was I had gotten 1 free year of Debix ID theft protection after my ID theft incident. #
They keep placing 90 day fraud alerts on your credit. Good, but after 1yr, I decided to freeze my credit instead. #
So my Debix account wasn’t active, but the fraud alert still was. After answering some questions (e.g. who’s my mortgage with) all’s well. #
John McCain twitters a Star Wars joke! What’s the world coming to? http://twitter.com/SenJohnMcCain/status/1270749895 #

Moved the DB for TheAngelForever. Set up the domain. Switched it over. Not working. DUH! Forgot to upload the files. Brain need sleep! #
I’m all in favor of breastfeeding in public, but this is too far: http://is.gd/lxaR Come on! If your baby’s that hungry, pull over first! #
Got my domain moved to Arvixe now. TheAngelForever.com is next. #
Yikes. Over 3,200 files to copy. On file #360 now. #
So tired from 2 nights of staying up till 1am. Need sleep, but my To Do list is overflowing. Need to somehow motivate myself to do work. #
Site I’m working on looks fine in FireFox… Looks fine in IE6… Looks fine in IE8… Looks messed up in IE7! #
Really want to get a webcam for chatting with family but don’t want to spend a lot. Any suggestions? (Please RT) #
Laptop is locking up. Combination of monthly report and McAfee. And (of course) just when I was feeling productive too! #
Yay! Report that’s freezing my PC up is almost done. #
Why do people leave VM messages nice & slow & then rattle off their phone # rapidly forcing me to listen to the message 3x to get it right? #
is thinking that my office needs a sign on the wall: “I’d rather be Busting Myths.” #
Wow. Lunchtime already. Where’s this day going to so quickly? #
RT @allenmireles New social networking computer worm. http://is.gd/lOil <= If an unsolicited link ever asks you to install something, DON’T! #
Our 1st support issue w/ Arvixe web hosting. Server gave “Service Unavailable” message. Tech restarted service & all was well. #
I was impressed when he said he’d look through the logs so he could see what happened & figure out how to keep it from happening again. #

Can’t get my Twitter App working. mySQL seems to choke on the massive amount of data I’m shifting through. Any #mySQL experts out there? #
#Kashi Tuscan Veggie Bake for lunch. *Yum!* Yellow squash, eggplant, red onion & sweet potato inside 2 lasagna noodles w/ tomato sauce. #
ARGH! WordPress just ate a post I was making. #
RT @TwitPic: We are back up! Please retweet #
Heading out now. Probably won’t be on Twitter again until tomorrow night. Goodnight all! #
Got my Twitter app working finally! Unfortunately, it takes about 8 mins to run & there’s no way to tell how if it’s working or freezing. #
Going to need to rewrite some portions of it. People prob won’t mind the long wait so long as there’s some progress indication. #
