- 08:36 So very depped. Surely got enough sleep. Oh, wait. In many broken pieces. There you go. There's your problem. #mmmmmm #
- 08:36 Guess who's kid had the rough night from heck. The one I was expecting Saturday night. All it took was Dad being late home last night. #
- 08:37 Bingo. #cuethenightterrorsandtantrumswhilesleeping #
- 09:07 I've also come to the conclusion that electronic books in my world are akin to punching myself in the face, repeatedly. #sad #
- 09:08 To actually utilize, to discuss as a concept - to actually *read* - name it. Since I won't buy a proprietary platform, I'm kinda stuck. #
- 09:09 The pirates have made it nicely impossible for me to get an open source version (no surprise), so. I'z stuck. #
- 09:10 To make my argument on why I don't do books electronically, I pose this scenario to you. Buy a Kindle. Buy two books for it. #
- 09:11 Now, two people want to read a book each. If I had bought two book books? NP. Two Kindle books? Problem. No, I'm not getting two Kindles. #
- 09:11 O HAI THE FACE PUNCHING LINE FORMS ON THE LEFT. #
- 09:16 @motherissues I'm so with you about the sleeping. Oh man. Right now would be GREAT. #
- 09:19 @benpatrick90069 I am so sorry about Kelly. (Been signed up for the donor thing since I could drive.) May her memory bring peace. #
- 09:21 (This is also why having two DS machines works better than two game console platforms.) #
- 09:35 @amymebberson Want a challenge? Go back, waaaay back and look for Astro Boy - or if you want, Astro Girl. Have fun! #
- 09:36 @GiniJudd Ow ow ow. Ow. Apply scotch internally. #
- 09:42 @GiniJudd A wee bit? I know, I know - Ow. Man, ow. #
- 09:54 Today, my kid is officially no longer a preschooler. He's too old - at the ripe old age of 6 years. #kids #thatwasfast #
- 10:22 Okay, it was a vente and it's gone and it wasn't enough. Bwwaaaaaaains. #sleepdep #zombie #
- 10:27 @Charm_CityCakes Holy spit, you're *here* - welcome neighbor! Wow. (Kid's 6th birthday is TODAY. Wish I'd known....) #
- 12:35 I'm at Los Chilaquiles t.co/8jg8zsU #
- 14:00 @gfish I have to share anything one can read with more than two people - and the idea that you buy it once, for one device? No worky. #
- 14:00 @gfish (I will defs keep that in mind, though. I *did* try using my Palm III for reading on vacation once. It got wet, lost everything.) #
- 14:06 Best slide show of the day. The itty Bitty Kitty Committee turns 4 today. t.co/mmhEaoL #kittylurve #
- 14:16 @theDivaLea @edonald I think I need to find that Epson printer I need, and buy two of them. This is nuts. #kodak #
- 14:28 Elvis was 42 when he died. I'm older. I'm not sure going neener neener I'm better at this living thing than you is good, but there you go. #
- 14:44 @gfish And it would imply a network connection to boot. Now, one could get around that...or I just buy two book books. Used, even. #
- 14:45 @hannnk I know where dinner tomorrow is going to be! #curryhouserun @tommyisawesome #
- 14:46 @gfish It's great for what it is - but what it replaces, it doesn't. #
- 14:47 @gfish For example, Sis loves hers because she travels a lot and her library is very work-career specific. 30 books, one device, bingo. #
- 14:49 @gfish In my house, there are two voracious readers with similar tastes. And we literally live in each other's back pockets. #
- 14:51 @gfish About the only thing we have two of is cars. There is no need for a second of of anything. (Maybe dinner, but. :9 ) #
- 14:52 @gfish And frankly, reading on our phones is tough. #presbyopia #
- 14:55 @timhutton It's your birthday? It's my kid's too - he's six today. You're in awesome company! Happy happy birthday. #
- 14:58 @gfish I also admit I am cheap and frugal unto death. Two of anything just breaks my brain. #
- 15:06 EDI. Another way to say you're anal. #facepalm #
- 15:09 @gfish It's a low-tech life, for us! #tomorrowtherewillbepie #
