09:18:35: Pika-CHUUUUUU! http://twitpic.com/31vw5p
09:28:44: Yup, and it is definitely 'horns and tails ' season. It's here.
09:37:42: RT @caitlinchris: if the insurance companies are raising rates and making record profits, why are they blaming the reform law?
09:39:21: @mhowardkarp That's awesome. Congrats!
09:39:49: @mhowardkarp Also, it's time for that awesome stupid adoption comment hashtag again. What was it?
09:41:30: @komodofood Wow. You're CLOSE today.
09:42:14: @mhowardkarp Heh. Watch this.
09:44:54: So last night, no shit there I was - minding my own business feeding me and napless kid at Burger King. When all of a sudden -
09:46:35: There's 'one of me' (white, over 40 and female) following us around. 'He's SO CUTE! Is he yours?' #jackassadoptioncomments
09:47:39: (That's the assumption in my neck of the woods, when it's just kid and I. He's my biokid and his father is twice as Chinese as he is.) #uhno
09:48:49: And then she starts circling the restaurant. She's by herself, see. And I think the burger is long gone. 'How old is he?'
09:49:33: 'Are you going to have another one?" #jackassadoptioncomments "Oh sure," I say. "In a year and a half or so."
09:51:20: She finds this somewhat out of line, but fails to get the hint. "Why so long?" #jackassadoptioncomments
09:52:41: I don't give it to her. "He's only five right now - " But we put up with attention like that throughout the meal. #jackassadoptioncomments.
09:53:58: If she had started asking if his father was Korean, Chinese, Japanese, something - that would have gotten ugly. #bubblebustingin321
09:55:16: I need to be grateful. The word 'adopted' never came up, and with this broad, it would have not been a good thing. #jackassadoptioncomments
09:56:46: @komodofood Me too, but it's Halloween office party day. ;_;
09:57:49: Talk about your perfect storm for night terrors last night.
09:59:15: I've got a kid developing right on schedule for defiant behavior (and getting consequences of same), this crap, Halloween BOO! and no nap.
10:01:03: I've gotten my first 'I don't like you any more' sulk this week and I'm patting myself on the back for it. Right on schedule.
10:01:44: He doesn't have to like picking up after himself, getting dressed in the morning and all that. But I am a Mean Mommy.
10:02:39: And the noodles won't bite you, eat them and the TV has to go off until you finish your dinner - yeah, all that. He's been working hard.
10:05:45: @komodofood Hope the location works out for you and you'll be back next week? *^^*
10:06:52: @mhowardkarp Um, when did we get to be the dinner show entertainment? #burgkerkingfollies
10:09:34: @vixy Peanut buttah and HONEY.
10:12:05: @seananmcguire There was something along the line of smallpox, but only applicable in livestock in the same category...now WHAT was it....
10:12:51: @seananmcguire That nobody hears about, because...duh. But you might find it pertinent to your interests...now where the EFF is it?
10:19:07: @seananmcguire And it wasn't the related variola either. BLAST. OH HAI viral induced diabetes mellitus, my old friend. Thanks AIDS, thanks.
10:26:26: RT @thinkgeek: Pokemon writer Takeshi Shudo has passed away: http://j.mp/cJzFyP He collected them all.

12:28:13: Anyone doing Chilean miner cosplay at work? YOU ROCK SO HARD. (There were 21 of them at my work today. No shit.)
12:29:01: @motherissues *dusts off hands* Yup. Change hats, change jobs - it'll be an adventure, for sure!
12:30:20: @mhowardkarp You wonder what you'd get for a round $200 figure, doesn't it? >_<

21:49:14: @vixy Mine are wrapping around the silhouettes. Not pretty, but yeah - noticed.
21:55:38: @seananmcguire *smiles*
21:57:29: @seananmcguire I hope someone noted the snickerdoodle preference. You and Jim, and not surprised. Enjoy!
22:00:48: There are things about today I am pleased with. There are things I'd like to open a vein over. Halloween is supposed to fun, right?
