Grabbed some prosciutto ends for the lentil soup… and carved off a little slice to much on.
Almost all my lentil soup ingredients were already in the house. Just need to grab some tomatoes. And beer. That’s an ingredient, right?
Bye, tree.
Car inspected, oil changed, and tire de-screwed. Nice to check things off the list.

It’s a good day for G Love.
Boy, it would be nice to be hanging out with my family instead of babysitting this failed network maintenance / db explosion. #rage
Got a blu-ray DVD of Up for xmas. Do I exchange it for standard def, or do I buy a blu-ray player? Yeah, I thought so too.
A very overpriced store just took advantage of my last minute shopping trip.
I spent too long away from Ruby and ActiveRecord. Now I’m having to relearn has_one vs. belongs_to. Got a few backwards.
After complaining about Google not offering OpenID, just read this RWW post. Nice! http://bit.ly/50Dlam
I think I just may have all my xmas shopping done… except for Amy. Gotta get her one more thing. C’mon, idea fairy.
ISC tips for fixing family computers during the holidays: http://bit.ly/4tF5GF “Malware removal software and alcohol” best comment yet.
Anyone have a preference for a specific OpenID provider? I’m a little annoyed that I can’t find Google providing such a service.
Trying to figure out the right smartphone for my dad. iPhone keyboard may not work well for him, but I just can’t recommend a crackberry.
Help me, coffee. You’re my only hope.
Not sure how many more tests I need to write to be comfortable with my test coverage on this app. I may never be totally comfy. Beer time.
Eating my own dog food. Renewing my vehicle registrations online.
Griffin AirCurve at NewEgg for $10 — well worth it. It works better than I expected. And it is compatible with my iPhone 3G. ;)
I wouldn’t mind if I never heard Springsteen’s Santa Claus is Coming to Town again.
I have an Xbox 360, a Wii, and plenty of games on my iPhone… yet, I am playing Browser Pong. http://stewdio.org/pong/

INBOX 0, BABY! First time… possibly ever!
Lunchtime online xmas shopping fail. Got nothing accomplished. Gah!
Winamp released an update today to address some vulnerabilities. Wait… What? Winamp is still a product? #poorllama
Time to reset your Twitter password. Twitter DNS records were compromised last night. Most API clients should have rejected for bad SSL cert

I wish I could go online to buy the Poggio Molina Grappa we had in Italy.
Ok, I’ve used Socialite for free long enough. Time to whip out the ol’ credit card. Great product!
Ok, getting a little nervous about xmas shopping now.
Watching the last half of Food Inc. If you have Netflix and haven’t seen this movie, drop it in your instant queue. It’s really well done.
Haven’t had time to open my rss reader in a week. I’m afraid to open it now.
Are the questions that I ask people really that difficult, or am I just that easy to ignore?

Players win, and winners play. Have a lucky day. #morphine
Trying to create an Automator service in Snow Leopard (upgrade, not fresh inst.), but it automatically saves as a workflow. Anyone else?

Calendars on my iPhone! Set up my iPhone to use ActiveSync against Google. It feels weird, but it’s working. (That’s what she said.)
Damn. Looks like Google calendars won’t let me store events where my gmail account is not one of the attendees. Fail.
For multi users, calendars only: Renew MobileMe or buy BusySync? CalDav for Google with iPhone/iCal isn’t working with > 1 calendar for me
So *that* is what my lung looks like.
Tis the season for electric razor commercials. My face hurts just watching.
There should be an iPhone app for finding a non-ghetto Santa for pictures with your kids.
