  • ABC’s Seattle affiliate is not carrying the debate. Maybe they are trying to tell me something. #
  • Obamanuts in Vancouver:http://is.gd/6Ki #
  • Sounds like I did a good thing by falling asleep after only watching the debate for 10 minutes. #
  • Watching Michelle Obama on Colbert. I *heart* her. #
  • Know how much I like my new job? Instead of "working from home" while sick, I’m actually working from home, and got up at 6AM to do it. #
  • It’s always fun making additions to technical documents when you and the original writer have distinctly different writing styles. #
  • @stevencohen Uh-oh. I just started working in a public library. What should I look out for? #
  • @stevencohen Having worked with developers the first four years after library school, librarians are a welcome change. #
  • As much as I bitch about the show, I just checked to see if new Grey’s Anatomy eps were starting tonight before accepting a free ticket. #
  • I really wish political campaigns would check to see if you’ve contributed within the last 24 hours before sending out fundraising emails. #
  • Ellen Degeneres has pissed off librarians: http://is.gd/6TQ – Yet what this really shows is that some librarians are humorless prigs. #
  • I really do want to make it into the office today, but I don’t want to take transit. Can I have a free-pass to drive into work if I’m sick? #
  • I feel dirty that I used Word 2008 Mac to create a document instead of Pages or Nisus Writer. *beats self with palm fronds* #
  • I just saw a black rodeo cowboy. Black people are taking over. :-D #
  • Twitterati: what say you about Shyftr? http://mashable.com/2008/04/12/shyftr/ #
  • @hillarygayle They had classes like this in my high school – called ‘lifeskills’ – but it was only offered to the non-college prep kids. #
  • @hillarygayle I guess they think us college gradu-twits will be rich enough to have people do those things for us. #
  • Got a grad announcement from my niece who went to Ga. Tech. She’s graduating with a BS in Chem. Eng. and has a job with Exxon already. #
  • LibrarianTwits: Any of you work at libraries that host patron-generated content (blogs, videos, podcasts, etc)? I need good examples and bad #
  • BTW, Hennepin County Library wins the patron generated content award hands down: http://www.hclib.org/pub/bookspace/ #
  • @dykc What @mellemusic just said. #
  • The big boss just came up to talk to me before I had a chance to pick the rice out of my braces. #
  • Wishing that the wifi in the library didn’t use browser-based authentication so I could upload pictures to flickr all day long for free. #
  • Someone in my office has the Red Dwarf theme as their ringtone. *JELLOUS* #
  • Handy tip: if you want to remain spoiler-free when checking out a book from the library, don’t read the subject headings. Frakkin LoC. #
  • I hate it when the vending machine becomes my conscience. It wouldn’t give me the M&Ms I asked for because it can see the size of my ass. #
  • Adobe has published a Classroom in a Book edition for Lightroom 2… which is still in Beta. Who would buy that book now? #
  • @gnumoon Did they show…. "THE VIDEO"? #
  • @gnumoon It’s HOT HOT HOT! #
  • I’m as tired of coughing as my coworkers are of hearing me cough. #
  • Do str8 people ever say "it’s nobody’s business" when asked about their sexuality? I’m looking at you, michelle rodriguez. #
  • @geekandahalf I mean, really it isn’t anybody else’s business truth be told, but only people who smell like mothballs seem to say it. #
  • @swirlspice Mm-hm. See? *sucks teeth* #
  • I keep running into classmates who are gobsmacked to see me working at a public library. People can change in four years. Honest. #
  • @geekandahalf I’m going to start carrying plastic hangers and throwing them at people’s feet. #
  • @mellemusic Four years ago I was a bit of a snob about working in libraries. As my mom (rightly) says (dammit), "Keep on living." #
  • MacTweeple – on Pukka: what say you? Yea? Nay? #
  • The authors on VPL’s short list of One Book, One Vancouver titles include a lesbian, a genderqueer, and a black dude. Vancouver FTW. #
