@dylanw thinking Medford, Salinas, Santa Barbara…but it's a moot point. not going anywhere except STIR CRAZY with 2 crap summers in a row. #
@dylanw Medford, Salinas, Santa Barbara…but it's a moot point anyway. not going anywhere except STIR CRAZY with two crap summers in a row. #
@dylanw you couldn't pay me enough money to move away from the coast. that's just…I mean…I don't even…dude, like whoa. #
@dylanw oh, I know. I keep fantasizing about somehow getting mom's house in CA & then remember the 100+ days of my childhood. in reply to dylanw #
@dylanw I don't know if I can handle that, honestly. (this spring was really tough.) declaring defeat may mean moving away. 🙁 in reply to dylanw #

Sasha chilling in her chair, which @zografispaula gave us many years ago! Quilt by mom. 🙂 http://moby.to/5xg31q #
Ah, this is where they got the idea for "our mrs reynolds"! #nerdCrossover #sttng #
Watching st:tng…dude, check out @wilw's ip*d! S3E9 (I think) #

Drinking raspberry cider, making thai soup, and my weekend starts tonite. Yes. #
@myerman although, yeah, I wouldn't do 100+ days for love nor money. in reply to myerman #
@myerman earlier this week I got soaked biking home. ugh. f'ing cold, is what it is. (which reminds me, it's about time to ride home.) in reply to myerman #
@myerman if we averaged out temps here & there, you'd actually get a pretty nice summer day. (60F today!) in reply to myerman #
@emmettoconnell @rogue_3 so like many "community" involvements, it's geared towards people with money and time/flexible schedules. in reply to emmettoconnell #
@emmettoconnell @rogue_3 and also you have to accompany their float (? or chaperone princesses?) to at least 1 other event. #betterlakefair in reply to emmettoconnell #
looking for a good place for brunch on Saturday in #Portland (with mom & sis) suggestions? #
@kmcdade G+ protip: set your current employer in yr profile as your Twitter handle. Shows up when u hover over name. (Absurd, but it works.) in reply to kmcdade #
@eaton don't drown it in the bathtub!!!! in reply to eaton #
as far as event itself, not really my thing (not big on crowds in summer) but it seems ppl are always enjoying themselves. #betterlakefair #
main issue with Lakefair, from my POV, is that it makes east-west rte thru downtown unpassable. dunno what to do abt that. #betterlakefair #
a website that doesn't make my eyes bleed would be a good start. :\ #snark #betterlakefair #
@tomvanderbilt @jamesdosborne @bobtimmermann I looked up my daily commute, looks like they're estimating 12mph. in reply to tomvanderbilt #
@heatregister I have that problem too. in reply to heatregister #

@toddfahrner I bow to your superior #design_og Don't remember that! in reply to toddfahrner #
@olybuzz @gerrypignite @brosage michener is freaking epic. (Went thru JAM phase in high school. Was oddly fond of The Drifters.) in reply to olybuzz #
Indeed! RT @clevercycles: @epersonae You mean @toddfahrner! @clevercycles is a lot more than that #design_og #
@brosage @olybuzz I find the juxtaposition of those last 2 tweets, accidental tho it may be, totally hilarious. #donttouchityoufool in reply to brosage #
RAIN. #
@olyhillary I do that to @olybuzz all the time. :\ Not sure why, actually. A habit of "checking in"? in reply to olyhillary #
@kitchenmage @DataG one of my processes at my last job involved massive (100+ pgs) Word to HTML (to XML IIRC) cleanup 3x/yr. It was insane. in reply to kitchenmage #
I *loved* "Creating Killer Websites" – there, I said it. (also, if you ever designed a non-Flash splash page….) #design_og #
also, #design_og might find it interesting that @clevercycles is Todd Fahrner. #
if you ever used Pagemill … were excited about BRAND NEW IE5 … learned how to code tables from Webmonkey … yep, #design_og #
@simonstl read this book on history of English grammar last year: http://t.co/UHWUlad – quite interesting. (Webster was quite a character.) in reply to simonstl #
