  • 15:06 So, Ice Age 3? We’re really gonna do this, huh? #
  • 21:55 Timing the Papa Johns delivery guy – he’s got about 15 – 25 minutes left. WILL HE MAKE THE DELIVERY ON-TIME??? Stay tuned. #
  • 22:33 Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock … hmmmm, some PIZZA sure would be nice right about now… #
  • 22:43 Twenty minutes late, but the delivery guy was cool about it – said only two of them were working tonight and that they were super busy. #
  • 22:44 So the blame goes to management, not the peons … like usual. And now, if you’ll excuse me – PIZZA!!! #
  • 22:49 Also, this pizza looks a little lop-sided, at least from a crust-perspective. Not sure what that’s all about… #
  • 23:06 "Now you see that evil will always win because good is dumb." #
  • 23:56 Twitter for Dogs? Why do I think this was created by the same people who dress up their pets on a regular basis??? (ibarkd.com/) #

Mini-Update!

Man vs. Wild
I found myself just a tad bit addicted to this show on Saturday when I encountered a mini-marathon of it running on Discovery HD. Mind you, most of the situations would’ve no doubt killed me in a heartbeat, like the episode where he had to burrow into a snow drift to make shelter for the night which just read as snowy grave to me, but ultimately it was still kinda interesting to watch him scale absolutely ridiculous cliffs and eat things that wouldn’t normally come pre-packaged, if you know what I mean…

Bacardi Dragon Berry Strawberry Rum
Very random reference, but I was tooling around the Bacardi website for “research” and thought this stuff sounded pretty good. Adding to list of indulgences we shall entertain a plenty once Sara finally graduates this fall!

Guess Who’s Coming to Town?!
Rumor has it that my sister is currently heading this way via vehicular transport, albeit from the sounds of it she and her boyfriend are also planning on visiting every other state in the contigious United States prior to making an appearance. Nonetheless, by my approximations that should put them in the vicinity of Florida sometime around Thanksgiving, so a good feast should be enjoyed by all!

  • 01:18 @edeckers – this might make a good social media story for your blog – winery holds contest to hire social media expert, then ignores results #
  • 01:20 @edeckers …and the voters are feeling a bit deceived now (bit.ly/fuoGL, tinyurl.com/qs6gdt, tinyurl.com/c34c35) #
  • 01:24 I think it’s funny how Murphy Goode’s site no longer has the "Favorites" votes listed for each video … covering tracks??? #
  • 01:25 Social media – she’s a hard stream to turn BACK OFF once you’ve opened the floodgates… (bit.ly/fuoGL) #
  • 16:19 Watching Man vs. Wild with Bear Grylls on the Discovery channel … not sure if I’ll ever be going outside again… #
  • 16:20 Hey, there are BEARS "outside!" (tinyurl.com/6mygkc) #
  • 17:35 Why do those Geico commercials with the googly eyes always make me smile??? "I always feel like somebody’s watching me…" #
  • 19:31 Wow – listening to "sanctity of marriage" idiots on TV try to downplay hate crimes against gay people as just another form of violence. #
  • 19:32 I can’t wait for the day when these ideals aren’t the popular vote in our country anymore. That level of radical judgment just sickens me… #
  • 23:31 Ugh – downgrading from Discovery HD to the SD channel because we’re getting a bad signal from the cable company tonight. No fun… 🙁 #

  • 07:59 Off to a lousy start on getting the AC fixed – first the contact phone # is wrong, then the voicemail is full on the correct #. #
  • 08:02 Seriously, who let’s their work voicemail get so full that they can’t receive new messages?! How professional is that? #
  • 09:08 Appointment set for sometime between 10am & Noon … it’s all just a waiting game now. #
  • 11:00 AC repair guy has come and gone, and the temperature in our domicile, she is a decreasing once again! Got a ways to go, though… 🙁 #
  • 12:39 LOL, very good point – www.chainsawsuit.com/20090618.shtml. #
  • 14:51 Stuck in a traffic jam on the freeway-some chick just pulled off to the side and walked into the edge of the woods…presumably to pee. Wow. #
  • 17:40 "I certify that I have read all 17 sections of the Terms of Use contained in the box above and I agree with all of their terms." Right… #

  • 17:53 I wish that stupid TinyURL conversion would only happen when it was necesary… (correct Chainsaw Suit link – tinyurl.com/lza7hd) #

  • 22:50 @rickiep00h People used to RAVE about Starcraft, but I always enjoyed the Warcraft games better. Plus, some of those alien swarms were nuts! #
  • 22:52 I don’t care about all of the rumors – Michael Jackson was an awesome musician and truly deserved his title as the King of Pop. #

  • 23:51 It’s gonna be one hot & sweaty night, and not in the good way… #

  • 23:58 So Progress Energy is 0 for 2 with these damn power outages this summer. At least TECO was only ever out for a few minutes at a time… #

  • 03:05 Word to the wise – if you haven’t yet upgraded to WordPress 2.8, DON’T!!! I wouldn’t be up at 3am if I hadn’t… #
  • 03:18 2.8.1-beta didn’t help, but finally got the post date changed by going into the database directly. Hope it gets fixed soon – still no tags. #
  • 09:16 @rickiep00h Self defense? I can understand not wanting to be calm and rational when some stranger comes into my house, intentions unknown. #
  • 10:04 Word of the day is SWELTERING, as in, "It is swelteringly hot and humid in Florida today." #
  • 12:38 @edeckers I had some last night – lost my edit post date function and some plug-ins don’t work. Beta update for 2.8.1 didn’t fix, either. #
  • 12:39 @edeckers If you do decide to try, don’t be stupid like me – make your backups first so you can rollback to 2.7 if something goes wrong. #
  • 17:31 @lorisaurus I’d love that to frame on my wall, except it’d scare the bejesus out of me every time I saw it… #
  • 18:19 It looks like WordPress 2.8 is causing all sorts of people problems – wordpress.org/support/topic/279132 #
  • 18:21 Here are some of the scarier ones, though – wordpress.org/support/topic/279104. Cleared an entire /public_html/ directory?! #
  • 18:23 I’ve definitely learned from this upgrade that it’s time to move to a test/production system with my sites instead of blind auto-updates. #
  • 18:24 It may be a little more work, but it sure beats losing time … or worse yet, advertising dollars! Welcome to the big time, indeed… #

  • 21:57 Getting ready to go walk outside, but I just stuck my head out the door and it feels like a furnace out there. #
  • 21:58 Nonetheless, that’s what I get for being supremely lazy and not going to the gym anytime in the last 16 HOURS when it was actually open! #
  • 22:03 Holy shit, am I gonna be a sweaty mass of crabiness in about 45 minutes! #
  • 22:37 Halfway through tonight’s walk and sweating like a banshee. Hopefully that’ll pay off during tomorrow’s weigh-in, though… #
  • 23:22 Officially home, 75 minutes and 88 degrees later – whew! Nice night for a walk, despite the heat, though. #
