Heading out in the rain for my photography class. Won't this be fun. 🙂 #
Back from my photography class. Wow am I cold. I really hope some of the shots turn out. #
We are late for preschool. I am not waking the sleeping toddler for anything right now. Sigh. #
I didn't realize that it was a clothing optional day. The toddler has stripped off everything but the diaper. (for now) #
On the old laptop w/the external monitor because @AnthonyFloyd forgot to give me the password to the new one. Tried all the usual suspects. #
Never seen anyone eat as fast as Q just did. He ate a whole pkg of oatmeal in 30 secs. Spoon wasn't quick enough so he stuffed in in by hand #
My next post will be titled "The Slasher Scream." Quinlan's scream rivals Jamie Lee Curtis' any day. I may have permanent hearing damage. #
RT @AnthonyFloyd: A lunchtime FTF! Awesome! http://bit.ly/cxZGOS [woot!] #
Darwin award #1: Jogger running around a park, with a trail AND a sidewalk, ON the street with very little clearance. #dumbass #
Darwin award #2 : Pickup truck backing up into a traffic circle without f*cking looking. #dumbass #
Darwin award #3: Yellow sports car, tailgating a scooter, cuts off a pepsi truck in the other lane. #dumbass #
All 3 Darwin awards in the 5 minute drive from the preschool. #
Grooving to a-ha while I clean up. Apart from the sweat, getting my house clean feels awesome. Cleaning FTW! #
Though I guess burning all the calories with the cleaning and dancing make the sweat a good thing too. #gettingmycardio #
If I do bike to NV on friday, will 45 minutes be enough time to get there? And will anyone mock me if I walk it up part of the long hill? #
And in my room against the wall, there sits a picture very small. A photograph I took some years ago, of some people in the room I know. #
I sit and wait alone. . . in my room. #
Aidan is officially 5 now. He learned to make farting noises on his arm. Quinlan finds this tres ammusant. #
We were just invited to have "peace". Who knew Northern Voice was so churchlike? #NV10 #
Ok, time to mingle will tweet more later. #NV10 #
50 Stories One Way, not exactly what I thought it would be. Is actually about academic podcasting. #NV10 #

Aoiding Defamtion: Def. is any negative statement abt a person/company; legal defence for opinions is broad. #NV10 #

RT @penmachine: I knew @uncleweed would make a great video for #nv10 – especially the Mr. Rogers slipper change. Feel well, good sir. #
Check keyword tools and check out what keywords people are searching for. #NV10 #

It is interesting how the keynotes work with out slides at a tech conference. #NV10 #stories #
In "Should Journalists Use Social Media?" with @lisaj and @kirklapointe #
Twitter especailly, makes @lisaj 's city smaller. Is another way to source material rather than just friends of journalists. #NV10 #
In "Should Journalists Use Social Media?" with @lisasj and @kirklapointe Interesting points so far. #
RT @AnthonyFloyd: Walking thru the Pacific Spirit Park on 3 different 'on leash' trails, not 1 of 8 dogs leashed [Arg!] #
My brain is still on life support. Spelling and grammar out the window. #sleepisfortheweak #
