  • It's plain to see, the evil inside of me is on the rise … ? http://blip.fm/~cd88m #
  • A bit, err, frisky, while working from home. Damned 11-day headache makes doing anything about it painful :( ? http://blip.fm/~cdhoq #
  • @meganrogers Err, not this one … :( in reply to meganrogers #
  • Hmm, sunny (but windy) outside. I should take a walk! Haven't walked the neighbourhood recently – plenty of new houses to look at. #
  • @markhughes3000 The precipitate of course. :D in reply to markhughes3000 #
  • Hmph. Walk failed. Got about 150m down the street before head exploded. Too many loud beep-y earthmovers :( #
  • watching Torchwood on Boxee. check it out at http://bit.ly/3oIKL #
  • @Lectric torchwood running on the imac while I work from the win7 laptop :) surprisingly effective and relaxing in reply to Lectric #
  • Hmm, since I'm home, I get to make dinner tonight! Red lentil, kumara, potato 'soup' sounds good! #
  • @Dianne_ http://twitpic.com/ff6og – *cough* orb *cough* #
  • Doh. Blood tests all completely normal. Good news I guess, but doesn't offer any clues to cause of headache. Brain scan time perhaps? #
  • @Gertrudesteinjr No, back, neck, vision, and now blood all check out ok. Have to keep looking. in reply to Gertrudesteinjr #
  • @Gertrudesteinjr I've been suspected of those before … 15+ years ago :/ If they are back, why now I wonder? in reply to Gertrudesteinjr #
  • @raena LOL! Yes, that one! :D in reply to raena #
  • I've achieved a whole lot more work today that I thought possible. Capital! Now to make dinner. Unless someone would like to distract me? :) #
  • @lelak Ooooh, shiny! http://is.gd/2B6s2 in reply to lelak #
  • Doh, ideally I would have sone vegetable stock. But, alas, not even any cubes :( #
  • Excellent! (Hopefully) Delicious dinner creation cooking away. Family due home in an hour or so. Some TV time? I think so! #
  • @Lectric no, I was working, really. Got more done than usual, even with the headache. No interruptions or distractions. in reply to Lectric #
  • The working starts now. Brain much improved overnight, but not quite ready for office time. #

  • Yay, I got to break my fast after blood was taken for testing. Now flaked out on couch with painkillers as my new best friend. #
  • Interesting, the only non-developer-of-the-product to respond to my Boxcar v iTweetReply query was a Boxcar user. No iTweetReply users care? #
  • Oh yeah, Hippo Birdies Two Ewes to @HalloranElder!! Have a great day sir! #
  • @HalloranElder It's a birthday card I couldn't link to at the time: http://is.gd/2yWEK in reply to HalloranElder #
  • @aeoth I'll wait for v2.5.1 the Mono-compatible version :P in reply to aeoth #
  • Just stumbled across this card that my old workmates created for me a year ago. Awesome. http://twitpic.com/faw3r #

  • Make a little birdhouse in your soul ? http://blip.fm/~cc2qo #

  • Oh. Hell. No. The penalty for being home sick: daytime TV. Specifically Oprah. And I thought my head hurt before… :( #
  • @kissability a bit too cannibalistic for me… Doesn't stop me wondering though :) in reply to kissability #
  • @HellZiggy heh, yes I'll have extra work to catch up on tomoz. At least I do get sick pay now. in reply to HellZiggy #
  • Dear friends, whiskers or clean shaven? [note: @TessaFroosh has veto rights anyway, but I'm curious] http://ping.fm/QnJkK #
  • @aDB that's actually what I like about the iPhone alarm, particulary when I leave it on silent overnight… in reply to aDB #
  • [sigh] panadeine forte really only efficacious for 30-60 mins but I can only take it every 6 hours. :( #
  • @aeoth I'm just following directions right now. About to follow-up with preferred doctor for more info. in reply to aeoth #
  • @moldor had this near-migraine level headache for 9 days now :( normally mersyndol does the trick though. in reply to moldor #
  • @MamaBearRed last night's doc was a waste. Seeing regular doc at 3-ish … If he's on time. in reply to MamaBearRed #
  • @HalloranElder about to see my regular doc rather than the extra I saw out-of-hours last night. Not a fan of chiro's – prefer science-based. in reply to HalloranElder #
  • Home, with instructions from the doctor to hit the drugs hard :/ plus blood tests to do after fasting, and a certificate for the rest of wk. #
  • @hlnr non-drowsy! :) in reply to hlnr #
  • @TessaFroosh thems cuddlin' words! Let's cuddle! <3 in reply to TessaFroosh #

  • @phillipquin looking fwd to tonights trivia related sketches. I even recognised the Lady Fleur in your drawings from last time. Excellent! #
  • @matthew858 lol, only a little bit biased perhaps? Got a handy feature/benefits comparison? :) in reply to matthew858 #
  • @matthew858 cool. I have to admit suspicion for comparisons that don't criticise themselves. Eg boxcar does oauth, itweetreply does?/not? in reply to matthew858 #
  • @matthew858 Excellent reasons why not to, so list it and explain. Full disclosure ftw. Aussie made works for me too :D in reply to matthew858 #
  • D'oh. Wanted to dm someone but they aren't following me. Probably means what I had to say is not that important to them. #
  • @jchutchins e … mail? Oh yeah, I remember! People still use that? Huh. Might have to try it :) thank you sir for continued awesomeness :D in reply to jchutchins #
  • listening to "Moby – Wait For Me" ? http://blip.fm/~ca0sx #
  • @grum I believe @BenBarren created the MTUB appellation, with @CathyE being the main meetup instigator in reply to grum #
  • @jdg no probs. I freely admit I have no idea :) I had heard of oauth issues though, but not duration. in reply to jdg #

  • @aDB @headwellred Gah! Got Cubs, so no @mtub for me… :/ Want to come to Cubs? :D in reply to aDB #
  • Mmm, ping.fm dilemma: Twhirl posts to twitter+ping.fm, TwitterFon posts only to ping.fm when enabled. Current config may double-post… #
  • And here we go again. crap data in = crap data out = crap results. Why are you surprised? #
  • .@HalloranElder GIGOLO – Garbage in, garbage out, lousy outcome in reply to HalloranElder #
  • Brain completely pffttyftftnsdjsdfjksdkl-ed. Time to point myself in the direction of 20+ manic kids aka Cub Scouts. Like that will help! :P #

  • Large quantity of orange juice consumed. Will add caffeine closer to Cubs time and hope it gets me through. #fb #
  • Other than "Black Holes and Revelations", what Muse CD's do I need to buy? #
  • Thx to friends for Muse album recommendations, evidently "Absolution" will be my 2nd purchase. :) #

  • I always have such strange dreams when my brain is broken. You were there, and you, but not that other person. Didn't say it was bad ;) #
  • Tech win: using iTunes remote to put some music on while kitteh #3 "looks after me" … By sitting on me. http://twitpic.com/ejgkm #

  • @rickybuchanan Cool! Plus MrsFroosh is now @TessaFroosh … just to be confusing :) in reply to rickybuchanan #
  • @rickybuchanan No, too much Mythbusters and YouTube. Search for non-newtonian fluid or oobleck :D in reply to rickybuchanan #

  • @jodiem There is always that little niggle: What if I forgot to back something up? Also, profile settings, etc can be a pain. in reply to jodiem #
  • Right, off to be domestic dad. Some people would be horrified at the state I left the kitchen last night… #
  • Poll: do you iron with the pointy end or the blunt end of the ironing board?(I use the blunt end) #
  • @andrewbarnett hehe, I used a heat gun for that, but used to iron 1mm balsa into curves :) in reply to andrewbarnett #
  • Summary so far: I'm a little weird using the blunt end predominantly, but it is best for shirts or other large areas … Like Im ironing now #
  • @Maab that would be why I've never understood or used the iron rack thing – it's on the wrong end :) hangers go on a portable rail/rack here in reply to Maab #
  • The ironing in progress. (in response to @Maab) http://twitpic.com/d84pw #
  • Oops, out of water. Break for coffee :) #
  • @Maab err, yes, a permanent rumpus room fixture in this case :D in reply to Maab #
  • @rickybuchanan hmm, I need to get more non-iron shirts and things, but I enjoy ironing too much to abandon it completely… in reply to rickybuchanan #
  • @andrewbarnett turns out driving the car for a whole year is cheaper than a decent helicopter rig :/ in reply to andrewbarnett #
  • Ahhhhh, if only the wrinkles in my life were as easy to smooth out as the wrinkles in my clothes and my mind. Ironing is very therapeutic :) #
  • @Gabfran No, never underwear or socks, sometime jeans if they are just too crinkled. in reply to Gabfran #
