Haircut makes my head feel lighter, or perhaps it was the slight sour-milk bilious odor (possible liver problems). http://barberjay.com
Waterfalls view from Manhattan Bridge is pretty darned good.
Sending emails from the subway, yes indeedy I am.
OH in rehearsal: “That’s so Sweeney Todd. I love that shit.”
Bad traffic on West Side highway and @heidihoover suddenly realized why: Pride march. Wrong day to drive thru Chelsea!

As Cory just noted, it’s the iPhone’s first birthday today, and we’ve got a present for you: the Sunday night talkcast, hosted this week by…
Just got a LinkedIn invite from my middle school Dungeon Master. Yikes.
Getting into the thick of it with idiot commenters does make the 3 hour drive go faster. Thanks, Sprint EVDO!
Billboard on I-78 WB. “God created the heaven and the earth” with hands & stigmata. Hmm?
Price of peace: freedom for the unrepentant killer of a 4-year-old girl? Some days there are no good answers. http://tinyurl.com/64n7wk

Yes! Starring “America’s Emmy-Nominated Neil Patrick Harris” and coming to your computer in July… Joss Whedon’s http://drhorrible.com/ :-)
Yay: replies tab is back. Boo: missed @s from @wisequark, @davejohnston, @chrissieb and @anniemal. Whoops!
Wow, there were Muppets on SNL back in the day. Trippy.
It’s not funny. No, not in the slightest. It’s just that the NYT ran an Onion headline :-) http://twitter.com/nytimes/statuses/846015957
Congratulating @heidihoover’s sister Brenda on her engagement.
Too hot NOT to swim right now. - Photo: http://bkite.com/00LUs
Made it to Opa’s house, only a 5 hour drive that should have taken 3. Going to bed! L:17070
Now at least heading in the correct direction again. ETA about 10 pm, hopefully we will dodge the Meltdown Hour (meaning me; very hungry).
Cruising west on I-78, directly into the setting sun. Family mood much improved by forward motion. http://tinyurl.com/4hsnkw
Crapity crap. I78 Westbound closed at exit 60 — detouring through scenic Bethlehem PA.
Stuck in traffic on 7th Avenue trying to get into Holland Tunnel. @heidihoover is fuming.
trying to get out of town.
Playing theme from “escape from new york”
A colleague’s Boot Camp XP install is restarting spontaneously every 15 minutes. My suggestion of playing “Groundhog Day” DVD not welcomed.
29 GB Entourage DB drops to 9 GB after rebuild/resync. What the hell was it keeping in there, the Lindbergh baby?
Gah, it’s 8 pm. Going home, got to pack for PA weekend.
File under “Figures”: AD-bound 10.5 Server’s Samba process will dump core if Mac clock is more than 5 min off the domain controller’s.
Trying to go 5 days w/o red meat. Viva la sushi.
Win2K3 R2 media speeds up reinstall process a lot. Still can’t force “Boot” and “System” volumes to same drive tho.
Dear N train passengers: the part of “guy in Firefox 3 t-shirt who spilled iced coffee” was played today by me. My apologies.
Finally loaded iPhysics on the touch. 7 year old is entranced.
Seen on Q train: “Boba Fett Is My Sugar Daddy” messenger bag. Wha? (Also I’m running late)
Lazytweet: Win2K3 server C: drive says “System,” D: says “Boot” (and D is the actual Win install). Safe to wipe C and mirror D?
Older girl eating a popsicle. I look over and she is holding a towel to her brow, pained expression. “I hate brainfreeze,” she says.
Screencast, marketing template, server config, SSL for Clearspace, and/or eat dinner. This evening will be a barnburner.

“What Is Love?” playing in deli. Urge to do “Roxbury” move overwhelming, but then I think of Chris Kattan’s cervical cartilage.

Apologies to Dr. Peter Venkman, but it’s hard to believe that it’s taken this long for a webcam vendor to encroach on the vacuum left by the discontinued…
Clearspace startup problem finally fixed. Same old lesson: Assume DNS is the cause and you’ll be right 90% of the time.
Upside: great show. Downside: I left the video camera at the office. Crap.
Late! Running to show now.
Dear dude at deli: You may want to reconsider your cologne choices; “Cannabis for Men” is going to get you into trouble.
You die now, bank websites that only work in IE but are only one big java applet. You crawl away and die alone.
Funny that when @gruber or @bynkii tweet the 7 Words, it’s normal; when @pistachio does, it’s shocking. #7words
