  • 09:44:14: I'm fine with you not watching TV. When not asked though, volunteering the information sounds like you're putting me down.
  • 09:59:10: Oh crap. Janitor's on vacation the next two weeks.
  • 09:59:23: Everyone complains about him when he's here, but just watch what happens when he's not.
  • 10:04:05: Crap, I'm gonna have to give into the darkside and buy some Robitussin.

  • 08:16:20: Starting yesterday and sort of peaking today, my seasonal chest congestion has kicked into full gear. I started thinking about it
  • 08:16:49: The timing actually couldn't be any better, since I'm not running anyway. A year or so ago I got it and had to stop running for like 6 weeks
  • 08:17:17: So by getting it while I can't run anyway, as a friend used to put it, it sort of fills two stomachs with one donut.
  • 08:33:16: http://twitpic.com/h75p1 - My coworker's sunburned foot. Ok, I don't feel as bad now.
  • 08:33:37: Crap, I must have left Tweetdeck running at home. I got sent to the penalty box.
  • 08:34:26: The penalty's HUGE, it says it won't reset for another HALF HOUR
  • 09:12:29: Hey, it looks like I'm back :)
  • 09:14:41: Real voicemail: "Hey Greg, I'm getting this strange error, Norton Antivirus... anyway call me." Thanks for the details.
  • 11:02:40: Crap, I was logged into Google when I searched for "baby porn".
  • 12:35:53: RT @sacbee_news: Furloughs immediately canceled for thousands of state workers http://bit.ly/eHKov
  • 12:45:47: RT @HellaSound: Uh okay, this is brilliant http://bit.ly/1JWBUy Protect your chicken from Dokken! :) RAWK ON!
  • 12:46:07: RT I just entered to win a FREE HD Flip Cam from Level 26. Winners picked daily on www.Level26.com. #level26 RT 2 enter.
  • 13:15:22: So by sheer luck, I'm getting sick. I'm calling it luck, because since I can't run anyway, I don't have to feel bad about not running.
  • 14:06:09: RT @eddieizzard: Damaged something in my right ankle. It could turn serious so I have had to run & walk through my 39th marathon today

  • 07:46:45: I've noticed more and more, people saying "reoccurring" instead of "recurring". What's up with that?

  • 08:49:33: So everyone? Call priority repair, all at once! Woo!

  • 18:36:00: OK this isn't good... She took my BP because the top # (systemic?) was 160. Could my injury cause that?

  • 18:47:45: The doc's sending me for an xray. Before he left his face lut up as he said. "Is that the #pre???"
  • 18:47:58: Take that, @karrack.
  • 18:50:53: I just noticed that #Twee says "View Converstation".
  • 20:18:30: I'm back. No break, more RICE, more feeling like a dumbass for going again. Should have listened to Dr. @cyktrussell.
  • 20:33:27: The Tivo just replaced channel 653 ARANG with 653 SETH. Uh, what?
