• Pry…myself…away..from..twitter #
• But before I go, I will extend one hearty middle finger in iDisk’s direction, and curse the day I locked into MobileMe for iPhone sync. #

• Having a child that is learning to read “big kid” books makes your realize just how arbitrary & ridiculous English spelling and grammar are. #
• @foxdougan Wien is great. Depends on what you’re into, though. PM me with your interests, etc., and I’ll assess your future move #
• @extraspecial Wow! What’s sleeping like? Happy with the new locale? #
• Pissed. Just spent €7,00 for the trial of Megaproxy.com and, quite frankly, it sucks. Anyone know a good US-based privacy/web proxy? #
• @danjwin Try again… #

• Maple: Daddy, I don’t know where I get all of this stuff I say. Maybe I get it out of the blues. #

• Maple: Mama and Daddy, in 2009 I want to write books. #

• @skylabops Pretty sure somebody was firing a 9mm on Landstraßer Hauptstraße last night, too. I even thought I heard a bullet whistle by. #
• Enjoying a lovely New Years Day. #

• Did I really just let my 4 y.o. Daughter play with iFart? Why, yes, I did. http://twitpic.com/y857 #

• @extraspecial Haha! You’ve never lived anywhere cold. That’s a pretty standard synonym for shitty weather anywhere north of Mason-Dixon. #
• Champagne: gekauft. #
• I never thought these words would dribble from my mouth, but I am thinking that for next year: fake tree. 1.5 hours sweeping the stairwells #

• The debate over “rank” in Twitter search results is just stupid. Who the fuck searches Twitter anyway? Doing ego searches here, webcocks? #
• Just figured out that Maple turned off the radiators in the bedroom last night. Woke up frozen. #
• I seriously could feed another child with the amount of food my existing children drop on the floor and/or abandon. #
• Maple: Let’s play a silly game called pay for land. Daddy: “Are we paying cash or do we need to get a loan?” Not alone, we’ll pay together. #

• Maple:”My leg is broken off; that means I have a fish in my body.” Daddy: “Are you an absurdist poet?” Maple:”Yes, I am a marine biologist.” #

Henrietta and Merna Sing Go Tell It On The Mountain

• @extraspecial I’m telling you: it’s the consumer apocalypse! #
• Hmm.. Six month in and I still have not solidified my personal information workflow b/w Yojimbo, OmniFocus, Evernote and, now, 1Password. #
• @AmyJane Ooof. That sounds familiar. #
• Thinking that I’m really not feeling the fire in me to go through this whole “bed time routine” thing tonight. Cripes. #

• Sleeping. Santa. Christmas. Eating. #
• Can’t believe that after all that preparation and anticipation, Maple woke up with a 39.5 degree fever and shivered through Christmas #

• Perfect fries: nearly achieved. I’ll fry them 30 seconds or a minute longer in the second fry if I ever do it again. #
• Beginning preparations for tomorrow’s big meal! #
• Maple is wrapping the 6,346 presents she made for Adele. Süß! #
• Checking out my TweetStats! http://tweetstats.com/graphs/scottythebody #
• http://bit.ly/butter—Very useful butter conversions for your holiday cooking! #
• Very fortuitous: temperature is dropping. Food storage on the terrace is a go and a godsend. #
• Stuffing for the bird: concocted. Cleaned and wrapped turkey: on the terrace. Sweet potato souffle: refrigerated. Cocktail? Oh yes! #
