  • 00:23:05: Next time I do a ficathon, I'm shortening the posting window. That way, when everyone waits until the end, it won't be as sad and awkward.
  • 00:27:42: @beckyh2112 You are my favourite person in the world right now!
  • 01:08:46: @ksmccarthy24 Oh, I'm not throwing stones! I'd hit myself just as hard. :D
  • 10:55:28: Follow up: I'm not upset at the ficathonners for posting toward the end of the window! I am, too. It was criticism of myself, not you. :D
  • 12:42:15: I typed "Pixar" on my iPhone and it suggested "Picard." Clearly, I am not the right kind of geek for this device.
  • 14:21:41: @terioncalling Blee! Can't wait to read!
  • 18:47:23: @nataliemorales I hope you post pictures later on! I'm curious to see what you're dressing as.
  • 19:23:46: whee, only a few more minutes, and I can get out of here! I love how leaving 30+ minutes late now equates in my brain as "leaving early."
  • 19:23:57: braaaaaaaaaaaaaaainwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaash
  • 21:04:51: @beachkid Joy! Can't wait to taste my first peppermint hot chocolate of the season.
  • 21:06:45: @fredhicks Those EYES. She is gorgeous!
  • 22:17:25: @ksmccarthy24 Reading 40 Characters or watching Xena?
  • 22:32:35: @ShipLizard I tried that once. Things got ugly. Never again.
  • 22:48:48: RT @Dark_Puck, @ksmccarthy24: THIS. http://tinyurl.com/ya2fd8v THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.
  • 22:52:01: RT @amber_benson: http://twitpic.com/ngkeg - The story of my life // The story of my job! Oh wait, my job is becoming my life...
  • 22:53:35: @ShipLizard WOW, awesome!
  • 23:09:44: Just got an email saying "Donnie Hoover is now following you on Twitter!" At first glance, I thought it said "Doogie Howser."

  • 14:47:38: @mkcurry The hell? Did we even read the same book? Reviewer fail.
  • 19:36:34: Whyyyyy did I agree to stay late an extra 30 minutes? It's never just 30 minutes.

  • 19:43:19: *sporfle* Apparently Tina Fey chose to mock Sarah Palin because Liz Lemon is unhappy. ilu Palin apologists. http://tinyurl.com/yhxv6cy
  • 22:09:28: Heading home! I think I'll try taking the bus downtown instead of the subway, even though it's slower. I do my best writing on the bus.
  • 22:39:42: TWO MINUTES FROM HOME. Two minutes, and I get a call dragging me back to work. Aaaaaaaaaaaaarghhh.
  • 22:58:44: Well, there's at least one advantage to being the only person working in the back room. *blasts Doctor Horrible soundtrack*
  • 23:01:14: Oh, cheesy singing @NathanFillion. What bad mood can't you erase?
  • 23:12:26: @xiehicks @fredhicks Congratulations!
  • 23:13:31: @AnneSowards Keep it safe! It may be your pantry's only defense against Bunnicula.
  • 23:24:06: @ShannonKButcher Man, you guys must be partied out! Will you have any energy left for Halloween?
  • 23:25:15: Woohoo! It took exactly the length of the Doctor Horrible soundtrack to finish my work. Minus "Caring Hands," because yawn.
  • 23:25:20: Going home, take 2!

  • 23:39:26: @RockyShields Tickled that the woman who does the female voices, Kate Reading, also does the Alera audio books.
  • 23:44:32: @RockyShields I get little reading time, but I can listen at work or the gym. And there's something Homerian about hearing books performed.

  • 00:28:47: RT @ksmccarthy24: Hosptials won't do VBAC, but insurance won't pay for the Cesearian. Catch-22. We need health care reform.

  • 03:08:27: @ksmccarthy24 Eeeeeeeeee! Awesome roommate is truly awesome!
  • 11:59:02: My god. A girl just walked by with a teacup Doberman, little larger than a Chihuahua. Perhaps science will be our doom after all.
  • 12:07:34: RT @longshotauthor: First sentence of Changes: I answered the phone, and Susan Rodriguez said, "They've taken our daughter."
  • 12:10:17: @longshotauthor Bet he'll be at NYCC! You could ask him if "Dresden" in the 1st draft of "Serenity" was a response to your Buffy shout-outs.
  • 12:14:12: @longshotauthor A synopsis of said script, btw: http://bit.ly/4sNe8F :D

  • 13:50:48: @AnneSowards Oh, absolutely. It was extraordinary. @DichenLachman shone! She, Enver Gjokaj, and @FranKranz are going places.
  • 13:51:59: I still hold that @DichenLachman would make a brilliant Kitai in @LongshotAuthor's Codex Alera.
  • 15:17:49: I have a new show! @WhiteCollarUSA was an absolute delight! As was the gratuitous shirtless scene. Mmmm, Bomer best with no collar at all.
  • 15:19:35: RT @smartpopbooks If you'd given up on Dollhouse, last night's is a great reason to give it another try. (On Hulu: http://tr.im/CT5R)
  • 15:38:43: Woah, it's suddenly raining! Roommate: "It's a monsoon!"
  • 16:35:20: @elrond25 I start posting them two months before the release date. Look for "Changes" chapters in early February!

  • 17:36:18: @dresdenfiles, @RyanMacklin Your awesomeness is pan-media!
  • 17:59:04: @Uilos I gasped aloud when Beckett said she didn't like it on "Castle." It's the STING, how can you not? Man, I need to watch that again...
  • 19:10:43: Clearly, I need further tutelage in the art of the tease! No one is rising to my Twitpic bait. :D

  • 20:12:10: @ShipLizard It was the "surface of the sun" thing that got me.
  • 20:52:01: man, I've had the book next to me all day. Every hour or so, I'll re-notice it, my heart will leap, and I'll have to look at the map again.
  • 20:52:18: I wonder how long it'll take me to get used to the idea that I'm a published illustrator now?
  • 20:52:21: Whenever I visit a bookstore or library, I get a momentary thrill of "the book with my art will be here!"
  • 21:33:41: @feliciaday How many chicken anuses would you need to make a meal?
  • 21:59:15: Does anyone know what's up with Growl? It says "A newer version of Growl is available online," and I install it, but the message persists.
  • 22:15:18: @ShipLizard Not even Justine is as crazy as Morganza. It would be pretty fun to watch, though!

  • 00:21:39: @RockyShields Late next year, actually. I'd wager late November, but I've never gotten anything definitive.
  • 00:22:28: @RockyShields "Webinar" was another. I still refuse to accept it as a word and bristle whenever I see it.
  • 00:29:38: @RockyShields Not to mention two Dresden short stories coming Spring 2010, "Curses" and "Even Hand"!
  • 00:37:31: Short story talk makes me think of my college roomie, who has one in an upcoming Datlow/Windling anthology. So freaking thrilled for her.
  • 08:13:12: @Esperacchius I don't understand the problem...

  • 22:55:26: Wish I'd badgered someone into seeing Billy Boyd with me.
  • 22:56:01: Despite being in group of 5 coworkers for Rifftrax, I felt isolated in the theatre, being 1 of perhaps 3 singing along to "Re: Your Brains."
