Swedish Performing Rights Society Demands Cash From Companies That Let Employees Listen To Music http://is.gd/1x7ym <= This is insane. #
RT @mike_elgan: Profanity helps you relieve pain. F*ck! http://bit.ly/klGBs <= I must be quite pain filled as I don’t curse at all. #
So exhausted. Couldn’t fall asleep last night. Was almost asleep & JSL fussed. Then he came into our bed a few hrs later. Can I nap now? #
Trying to figure out how long before the employee potluck meal I should head to the cafeteria to get them to reheat my Quinoa pilaf. #
Hate places that don’t update their website. Looking for Pick Your Own orchards. 1 talking about Summer of 2008. Update, people, update!!! #
Employee Potluck lunch at work was amazing. So many people brought in so many diff foods. Bringing my leftover Quinoa & 5 corn on cobs home. #
Eyes killing me. That bright shiny thing in the sky hurt my eyes. (Been cloudy/rainy here recently.) Turning office lights off may help. #
Condo goes into foreclosure. Wells Fargo (1st mortgage), sues other lien holders incl 2nd mortgage holder Wells Fargo http://is.gd/1xp87 #
Wells Fargo has even hired a lawyer to defend themselves against Wells Fargo’s charges. What the…..?!!!! #
Sitting in the dark with the brightness on my monitors turned way down hoping it’ll help my eyes stop hurting. #
It is times like this that I wish I could pop my eyeballs out to relieve some pressure. Though I guess putting them back in would be tricky. #
My Disney World tie is barely 2 months old and it’s already starting to fray! Where’s the Disney Quality?! #
Lugged Portable AC unit upstairs & assembled it. Can’t run it because window is too large. Need to cut piece of wood first. #
I can run it on fan mode, though to circulate air while I dump tons of photos off of filled memory cards to sort later. #
Was going to work out, but I think lugging the AC unit upstairs is going to count as my workout tonight. #
Last memory card almost done. Then I can head downstairs & get something to eat. (Was feeling sick earlier & didn’t eat dinner.) #
Memory card photos all offloaded. All 1,721 of them occupying 4.59 GB. Have I mentioned that I’ll be sorting photos for the next year? #
Trying to get JQuery UI Sortables to work. Once this is done, the rest of my newest web app should be a breeze. #
It’s late and I’m tired. I’ll sort out this jQuery UI Sortables code tomorrow. #
RT @TheAngelForever Character photo crusade at Six Flags http://is.gd/1yvmt <= On way home, NHL called Pepe Le Pew “Stinky Le PU” 😉 #
Told to reduce my 22GB of network drive files. Removed old/outdated/unneeded files & now it’s under 6.8GB. #
If only house cleaning was that easy. I’ll drag this pile here. Click Delete there. House all cleaned up! #
Wow. I just realized that I haven’t made a blog post in almost 3 weeks! Been so busy lately. #
Why oh why must my laptop freeze as I try to do important work?!! Come on laptop. Work with me here!!! #
Wow, my one year blog-o-versary is in less than 2 months. What to do to mark the special occasion? #
RT @LanceUlanoff: Billy Mays Final Spot. http://bit.ly/P2AUI And of course, I totally want this product . I’m a sucker for this stuff. #
Just checked local farm’s Pick-Your-Own schedule. Was in PDF format. Fine. Open PDF & it’s unreadable. #FAIL #
Any #jQuery or #jQueryUI gurus out there? Is there a way to dynamically add items to a Sortable series of DIVs? Couldn’t get it to work. #
RT @HighTechDad Unruly Teen Charges $23 Quadrillion At Drugstore http://bit.ly/AXz1l <= Visa’s response: Add a $20 negative balance fee! #
To put $23 Quandrillion CVS charge in perspective, the World’s GDP is $65.61 trillion. So teen charged over 350 times the World GDP. #
Come Home Perry stuck in my head. “Gonna move to the prairie. Change my name to Larry!” “Larry?” “I ran out of rhymes, ok?!” #PhineasAndFerb #
Snacking on baby carrots & celery sticks dipped in buffalo wing sauce. Delish, but I think I need more water. Mouth’s on fire! #
Bad: I just realized I made a big typo in my wedding anniversary blog post 3 weeks ago. Possibly worse: My wife didn’t notice it at all! #
Think I might have found why #jQueryUI’s Sortable wasn’t working for me. My #JQuery script file was v1.2.6, not v1.3. Will try v1.3 later. #
Just hooked up our upstairs portable AC unit. Hanging around to make sure its working. So far room went from 91 to 84 pretty quickly. #
Tried #JQuery v1.3 but that didn’t fix my #JQueryUI Sortable bug. Can Sortable items be added dynamically? If so, how? #
Yay! Just got #jQueryUI Sortable working! One more small feature and my new web application will be ready. #
So tired this morning. When oh when will JSL sleep through the night & let us get a good night’s sleep?! #
I’ve noticed that when I’m tired during the day I snack more & crave worse-for-me foods. Wonder if any studies have researched this link. #
RT @elijahmanor 50+ Really Cool Twitter Mashups http://bit.ly/msT2v <=Twubble’s like a Twitter app I’m writing, but mine won’t need your pwd #
Told to drop everything & work on super-important project. I completed it within a half hour. Web Dev Win! #
Ok, so technically the project wasn’t hard. The code was already written. Just was adding DB entries. Still, I’ll take my wins where I can. #
NYT: Twitter Hack Raises Flags on Security http://is.gd/1Bafq Me: Title makes it sound like Twitter’s prob but story’s about pwd management. #
RT @zazzle: 10 random people who RT this in the next hour will receive a coupon for a free pack of @zazzle business cards! #
RT @BadAstronomer Already a goofball Apollo denier in the comments. They’re like a virus. http://tr.im/sEfO <= But more fun to play with 😉 #
Recipe for Tie Dye Cheesecake calls for 1 box of Red Velvet Cake Mix. Pour 1/2 into springform pan, discard rest. WTF? Why not make 2 cakes? #
Going to need some #EASActive folks to beta test a web application I made. Anyone interested? #
