The karaoke truth remains: @heidihoover nails “Heaven On Their Minds” every damn time. Ironic.
Took a break from karaoke to show off http://i.tuaw.com to a couple of iPhone owners.

Karaoke update: @heidihoover is rockin the Kansas tunes. Price of growing up in the “80s. :)
First “effectiv” file cabinet assembled. File slides don’t spring out as they should, makes it very hard to open the door. Not so effectiv.
Karaoke tonight, 7:30 at Planet Rose, 13th and A in NYC. C’mon down.
Putting together IKEA file drawers for @heidihoover workspace, watching Weather Channel. Does IKEA sell “gustav” furniture?
Kid A dropped off with friends for beach day and sleepover.
Both girls, unexpectedly, have sleepover plans tomorrow. Dinner + karaoke!

RT @Mike_FTW: Tracy Morgan woke up today, turned on the TV and said: “Oh, no! Liz Lemon! What have you gone and done NOW, woman?!?”
heading up to @richrose place for the day.
Household consensus on Palin: a “cynical, calculated” choice. If the governor of AK was a man with same creds, JMcC doesn’t return calls.
Was amusing to hear @richrose keep referring to our telephone installer as “POTSie.”
CNN says Obama tweets DRINK NOW

Cripes, started walking to the train forgetting I needed to move the car. Now winded from uphill run back. Whoo.
David Gergen looks like he may cry.
Carl Bernstein: Maybe the best convention speech I’ve heard since Kennedy.
Was the music selected by Obama’s Kansas family? Pickup truck tunes.
Man, @blankbaby is nailing the DNClulz. K’plaq!
RT @nprpolitics GOP may delay convention because of Hurricane Gustav. Yes, the irony is thick as gumbo.
I don’t think Michael Palin will do well as the Second Husband, he’s too… British.
New phone system: from purchase order to dial tone at the desks in 15 days. Yes, we can.

I can’t really fault the editors on this headline, it’s hard to resist. http://skitch.com/t/8yh
Bein’ awake. Again. Not especially consoled that @richrose is also awake. Blergh.

Sitting on counter at Joe 13th — NYC schools chancellor Joel Klein’s business card. Anyone want to call him?
Cumulative effect of 20-hr days is to make me loopy as a ball of string.
I’m tweeting from the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. Viva Sprint.
Every time I see “bad auth” on one of our SIP phones I hear “Bad Horse, Bad Horse, Bad Horse, he’s bad… he rides across the nation…”
This is why Pandora rocks. http://tinyurl.com/6r8cdc Never would have heard them otherwise.
PBX vendor said T1 hookup would be plug and play; they were correct. 1st thing on this project that’s gone just as advertised.
First call of the day where I go to someone’s office to point out a disconnected Ethernet cable. I expect there may be more.
OMG this is gonna be a long haul.
This wiring closet smells like mouse poop and fail.
Going home now, but enjoying the lively debate on RPN on TUAW. http://tinyurl.com/5bnlzw

Wearing my dealmac.com t-shirt.
Knowing that my tweets update Facebook and Plaxo statuses has made me cautious. I need a way to block them from populating… a #gripe htag?

What is the “whole internet,” anyway? Is it a place you can go, or is it really just an idea? Can you put it in your pants? Apparently not, if the UK’s Advertising…
OK, forgot what I was doing between time I switched to browser and got to location bar. Pandora, for stayin-awake music.
RT @heidihoover: Popsicle stick: Q: What do rabbits put in computers? A: hoppy disks. 7-yr-old didn’t get it. Popsicle ppl need new jokes.
Making a bet with my body to see how late I’m going to work. Food is the prize. Also maybe some sleep.
Spinning several plates in the air.
Now following the talented @easkala — Hi Libby!
Had to decline my dad’s invite to US Open tonight. :-(
Dreamed last night I went to ComiCon and met @kentnichols. I gotta get some better dreams.
