  • 00:57:00: I just thought of this again: http://bit.ly/6SSonA @destroythemeek and @fourteenacross need to be killed with shovels.
  • 08:46:18: @Uilos I see that happen all the time! I've done it once or twice myself. I've never seen anyone get busted. It's like jaywalking.
  • 09:00:47: Mega-weird dream. Ran into @Jamie1km and family at SDCC--all in costume--though he recognized my Molly costume before he recognized me.
  • 09:01:01: Then I went to the restroom, and someone tried to shoot me through the door. Someone was on the other side--bullet holes frothed with blood.
  • 09:01:11: I waited for her to run out of ammo and enter, then I set the assassin's costume on fire with the lighter she was holding and RAN.

  • 10:39:18: @leverus Here are six: "bathysphere," "mongoose," "zesty," "cephalopod," "odorless," and "shimmied." 2994 to go!

  • 10:47:21: D&D "promotes (...) competitive hostility, violence, addictive escape behaviors, and possible gambling." Ergo, @FeliciaDay > Al Capone.
  • 11:04:40: Is there a way to save and view PDFs on the iPhone? Suppose I could use the Dropbox app, but I'd rather it not be internet-dependent.

My college roommate sent this to me this morning, and I wanted to pass it on.
I know a lot of the focus right now in terms of the Haiti earthquake situation is on the humanitarian situation within the country, but there's an additional element that I want to put on your radar screens: we (meaning law dorks like me and my law school classmates, particularly those of us with an interest in immigration law) are trying to get as many people as possible to call their members of Congress and ask that Temporary Protected Status (TPS) be enacted for Haitian nationals currently in the US. This would provide temporary immigration relief to help keep Haitians currently in deportation proceedings from being sent back, as well as allowing some temporary work authorizations. There's a good article here. Information on how to contact your Congresspeople may be found here.

Obviously, please forward widely.
As for the humanitarian effort within Haiti, the Daily Kos put together an excellent link collection for charities funding disaster relief, and Heidi created the Help Haiti LJ comm, where fandom creatives are auctioning off fic, art, and more for donations.

The State Department has set up another cellphone donation link: Text "HAITI" to 90999 and you will be charged for a $10 donation to relief efforts. (Hat tip to Rachel Maddow, the White House twitterfeed, and Heidi Tandy)

  • 00:18:16: D'OH. Just realized that my Microsoft Office installation CDs are in Dallas.
  • 01:11:16: What the? NY Mag is now sending me THREE copies of every issue. I called attention to the fact they were mistakenly sending me 2 in OCTOBER.
  • 08:57:54: The hell kind of ad is this for Weather.com? "See Real Torture -- diehard.com -- Watch torture videos now."
  • 08:58:12: Obviously not on humans, but still... why would anyone click on that, except in horrified incredulity?
  • 11:06:13: *jaw drops* Pat Rothfuss' "Golden Ticket" went for $15,200, won by Subterranean Press (@subpress)! Pat and Bill, you guys are AMAZING.
  • 11:06:37: 15k towards fighting global poverty, and a favor that's likely to turn into a future Rothfuss novella. THE WINNER IS EARTH! @subpress
  • 11:29:15: @AnneSowards I hope NYCC goes without saying? :D
  • 11:43:39: "I'm down like your internet connection! I'm crashing like your MotionBuilder." --George
  • 11:51:49: Ooh! Coworker behind me has "The Name of the Wind" on his desk. Clearly, today is Pat Rothfuss Awesomeness Day. Must exchange recs w/ him.
  • 13:07:52: @RockyShields No release date yet.

  • 00:44:21: @blazeorama Oh, "airlock" has always been a noun. But thanks to BSG, it's been verbed! And that is beautiful.
  • 01:48:03: @mightykatemusic Can't wait to hear it!
  • 09:22:23: @ksmccarthy24 Yay, thanks for checking in! The Northeast misses you already!
  • 12:12:26: Dear Priscilla, Before sending out emails and making news posts that reach many thousands of people, proofread. Bad beta. Love, Yourself.
  • 14:36:05: Aaaaaaarg. Forgot to press "send" on my lunch order. Have been waiting for 30 minutes for food that hasn't been ordered yet.
  • 15:39:15: RT @AnneSowards: in honor of 01.11.10, I suggest watching "The Palindrome Reversal Palindrome" ep of THE MIDDLEMAN (thx @priscellie)
  • 20:03:08: Lovely. Coworker gave me the wrong information, so I spent 3/4 of today working on the wrong file. *shakes fist* PALINDROOOOOME!
  • 22:40:59: *jaw drops* I just... I don't even know, people. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37832641
  • 22:43:27: @Uilos Cheer up, emo kid! #Castle is on in 17 minutes! *hugs*
  • 23:01:14: WOOHOO, #Castle time!
  • 23:05:39: AUGH. The embryo lady friended me on twitter!
  • 23:10:19: Hate the cell phone ad w/ the blonde chick with the plaster arm and leg. Spelling out the joke is an insult to the audience's intelligence.
  • 23:20:29: WOOHOO! Ad for ABC's "The Deep End"! I have ulterior motives for wanting this show to succeed, so I'll definitely be checking it out. :D
  • 23:27:14: How can you dance under the clock at Crand Central? Unless you were in the information kiosk. #geographyFail #Castle
  • 23:34:35: WOOHOO! #Leverage ad! WANT.

  • 11:47:19: Sweet! My computer is ready for pickup! Repairs usually take 5-7 days, but this time I got the call after 25 hours. I love Apple.
  • 14:10:25: At the Apple store to pick up laptop, masquerading once more as "Brenda."
  • 15:25:54: Picked up some stuff at Bed Bath & Beyond, now cabbing it home. Driver's name is Jabba.
  • 17:02:17: Installing Snow Leopard and rewatching "The Fall." Good day.
  • 18:05:57: @nataliemorales Hey, Owen Wilson is a hottie. Now you have hotness AND street cred!
  • 21:17:02: FRAK. Didn't export playlists--just assumed I could import the iTunes library file and restore them that way. Any way I can get them back?
  • 21:44:35: HAHA! I tried importing the xml library file instead on the proprietary itl file, and it reconstructed the whole thing!
  • 21:46:52: Though I feel quite brainy for figuring out a way to excavate playlist contents by viewing the xml file in a text editor
  • 21:46:57: and looking up which song files correlated with the hash numbers in the playlist.
  • 22:25:55: RT @Dark_Puck: http://www.us.dockers.com/season/landing.aspx WHAT THE SHIT IS THIS? // WHAT THE EVER-LOVING CRAP?
  • 22:33:24: Thanks, @Dark_Puck, for suggesting "The Lumberjack Song" to remedy Dockers-rage. And thank you, BSG: The Plan, for providing a distraction.
  • 22:43:54: @blazeorama Dockers: In Just Seven Days, I Can Make You a Maaaaaaaaan!
  • 23:59:15: I like that "airlock" is a verb.

  • 00:34:35: GLEE! @mightykatemusic is too wonderful for words.
  • 02:19:46: @viennateng Congrats!
  • 02:21:43: Sleep time for all good Cellies who must take their computers to be lobotomized tomorrow, then go to work. Sigh. But then Vampire Cowboys!
  • 11:12:23: At work, but were given the wrong keys, so can't access the computer rooms. All coworkers with correct keys are apparently asleep. Lovely.
  • 11:47:24: Yay, we're in! We were only sitting around uselessly for 47 minutes!
  • 15:46:34: @Uilos More than a horse head? The twelve-year-old daughter of a senator? Cthulhu?
  • 15:52:56: RT @AuthorGabrielle: "Silence is golden, but duct tape is silver."

  • 09:20:55: Hey, it snowed last night! Like half an inch, sure, but it was surprising nonetheless to wake up to wintry whiteness. Good morning, snow!
  • 11:15:42: @Dark_Puck Whoops! Here's @devilbunnyart's in-progress illustration: http://jenniferrodgers.livejournal.com/52828.html Love her stuff.
  • 11:18:18: RT @neilhimself: A small reminder if you're in the New York area: I'll be narrating PETER & THE WOLF 7pm Jan16th. FREE. Details at http ...
  • 11:19:49: @boymonster Keep your precipitation where it is! Snow in Manhattan stops being fun after about an hour.
  • 11:22:31: @boymonster This was extra-fun when I was nine years old, telling people my favourite movie was "Little Shop of Horrors."
  • 11:25:43: RT @Esperacchius: I make this point all the time. We are ALL geeks, folks. http://tweetphoto.com/8271669 // *chortles*
  • 11:27:42: @Esperacchius Talking about football (UK) hooligans vs. sci-fi fans, Pratchett imagined folks taking to the street, whooping "DOCTOR WHOOO!"
  • 14:27:41: No matter how often I have Indian food, I always want it. Is this what it's like to be a guy?
  • 15:30:47: I was just reminded of my favourite commercial ever, Folgers' "Happy Morning." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMkkQO5HUXM Thanks, Fred.
  • 16:00:03: @fredhicks The only advice a layout artist ever needs: http://bit.ly/7aNE2B
  • 16:43:19: I think "Coed Alera" is my new favourite @longshotauthor-related typo. Furries/Furys is always hilarious, but it makes my brain cry.
  • 16:43:40: Now I'm picturing life at the Academy with the stylings of Gossip Girl.
  • 22:35:41: Dear Priscilla, Let go. Delegate. Love, Your Sanity.

  • 00:32:03: Being a beta and a fanficcer is a toxic combination. In @fourteenacross' Writing Chat Thingy tonight, all I can think about is "Changes." XD
  • 00:34:48: RT @JeffCarlisle: Is @feliciaday going to be in James Cameron's sequel to AVATAR? A spoiler image seems to think so: http://tinyurl.com ...
  • 00:45:43: RT @neilhimself: RT @jessebdylan: New scanners break child porn laws -- oops - this is a large problem. http://bit.ly/7R643h
  • 01:17:53: Good night, internet! I have an appointment in the morning to get my hard drive replaced. Let's hope everything backed up properly.
  • 11:45:52: @ShannonKButcher Ooh, have fun! 3D/IMAX or normal?
  • 12:34:14: @ShannonKButcher Get there early! I went Friday in Dallas, and it was so packed I had to sit in the 2nd row.
  • 13:32:24: Rather staggering: SONY's "Did You Know?" video -- http://bit.ly/LGu8z
  • 14:16:29: Ryan just referred to libraries as "smut houses." I love this company. :D
  • 14:21:29: Was just Twitter friended by someone otherwise following only Jim Butcher and Neil Gaiman. One of these things is not like the other.
  • 23:12:03: Stumbled upon a blog entry by a soon-to-be-published novelist who used my map (among others) as inspiration for her own. Warmfuzzies!

  • 00:53:18: Is it just me, or does the Doctor's new companion look a little like @FeliciaDay?
  • 02:28:23: Movies I Saw While On Vacation: Sherlock Holmes, An Education, The Princess and the Frog, Young Victoria, Nine, Avatar.
  • 02:28:26: More movies in a week and a half than I saw the whole rest of the year.
  • 13:20:29: @watchestomuchtv No, not Donna. The Eleventh Doctor's companion.
  • 19:17:54: At the airport! My flight was bumped back from 6:40 to 7:55, and it's 5:15 now. Sigh.
  • 19:18:43: But thanks to another cosmic screwup, I'm in first class again! Was I unusually kind to a haggard old man or something recently?
  • 21:05:59: Flight has been delayed to 8:15. Sigh again. I'm probably not going to get back to my apartment until 2am.
  • 21:40:41: Updated the Jim-Butcher.com store so that the short stories are listed in chronological order, with one-sentence blurbs. I have OCD.
  • 21:53:18: Why do airports lieeeeeeee?
  • 21:53:37: @nelspen Yup. A11.
  • 22:01:40: @anglophile80 Maybe Thomas felt the need to travel, too! Even supernatural sex vampires need vacations sometimes. :D
  • 22:12:19: @anglophile80 Are you kidding? The Vatican crew is the White Court's *favourite*. They love seeing that long-repressed sexuality break. :D
  • 22:26:25: Whee, boarded!
