As Seen on Twitter



I'm not sure what the issue is here. I have been able to download it on my PC using Chrome and my iPad using Safari. A friend was able to open it in Firefox on a mac. I haven't made any changes to the calculator. Is anyone else having a problem downloading the file?

Batman, Take Over!

I'm busy/distracted/anxious because I leave for TNNA tomorrow morning. One the one hand TNNA is a big yarny party and all the cool kids will be there. On the other hand I have a lot of work to get done when I'm there. It stresses me out worrying that I either won't get enough done or I won't have a chance to see people I only get to see at TNNA. It looks like there might be some really exciting things this year. I'll give a full report when I get home.

In the meantime my older son and I had a really good time reading through the tweets of @God_Damn_Batman. Our favorite so far.

Darn You, Twitter

Twitter has been stealing my blog fodder. I don't mean that anyone is taking stuff from my blog. I mean that when strange, funny, or oddly entertaining things happen in my life, and I can express them in 140 characters or less, I tweet about them instead of blogging. Which pretty much just leaves knitting content for the blog and I can only knit so fast.
Some things you've been missing.
  • Older son didn't come home from school on Friday. He forgot his phone and never showed up. I had no way of reaching him. I was freaking out when we sauntered in an hour later. There was a lot of yelling and crying.

  • Older son was home sick on Monday. In the middle of his cello practice he paused and yelled, "MOOOOOMMM, what's hydrocephalus?" I cannot explain why he asked or what he did with the information.

  • We have started hosting a Glee potluck every Sunday night. A group of friends come over for a potluck dinner then we watch Glee and then play a little Rock Band.

  • We have Beatles Rockband. And it's awesome.

  • Younger son doesn't think the Beatles are all that great and really wants a Weezer Rockband. This past Sunday he wrote a letter to MTV Games and EA, the makers of Rockband, to ask if they would make a Weezer Rockband.

  • We have continued on the cleaning and organizing streak. There is still much to do.

  • Wes and I have a lot of silly exchanges on Twitter.


Okay, I think you're kind of caught up. Except for missing lots of tweets saying that I'm tired, need coffee, have a headache, should be working, etc.

The Featherweight Cardigan is moving along. I separated the arms last night and knit an inch on the body. I'm watching the yarn carefully. I think this might end up being another short-sleeved sweater.

Trouble With Twitters

Since I'm only half-way through my first sleeve tab I'll share this very funny animation about Twitter.*

(Enbedded link not working. Video is here.)

*Don't worry, Twitter. I still love you.

Technical Mid-Life Crisis

First I was Twittering.
Now I'm Yelping.
I'm trying to keep up with those young'uns.
