Cosplayers in alamoghetto?? We just passed a guy walking down the street with a homemade keyblade slung over his shoulder.

Spent the morn so far trying to improve my homepage’s site search – i’ve always hated it but I think it’s a little better now.

Finding that it takes an avg 7mins (incl. cleanup) to make a proper drink at my coffee bar. Hm. Hey, each one is lovingly hand-crafted! 🙂

We’ve decided that tonight’s slumber party will be a PS3 Netflix suggestions serendipity test. So let it be Twittered, so let it be done 😉

Ok, I have so far been a rotten "man-mom" today and am now flying around the house, trying to get stuff done in the little time I have left.

(Uh, "man-mom"? Maybe that’s the word i’ve been looking for this whole time. Not married so "househusband" is a bit misleading.)

(though, some would argue "man" isn’t entirely accurate either, and could list reasons to prove it. I’m looking at you, @Thorobredz.)

@don_rivers xbox 360 has netflix built in and the wii netflix disc is due very soon. But, no hi-def streaming with wii, obviously.

@don_rivers I assume you know more than me about networking but I can only get hd stream (720p) if the ps3 is wired, wireless won’t do it.

Eep! Hastings has a "Now hiring baristas" sign up! Grrrrr. (btw, they need a barista to run those super-autos they use?? (iirc))

It’s our dreaded weekly wed/thurs misery – work really late (it’s 1130p now), brief sleep, then work really early (gotta be up at 5a). Ugh.

@don_rivers not quite that simple – they may sythesize a clove-ish kinda’ flavor, but these are gourmet items and I love my specific brand

@don_rivers it’s a bit like the difference between Johnny Walker and generic bottom-shelf scotch. Picky means nothing else is even close.

Somebody please tell/link me a great chicken enchilada recipe. I’ve never gotten it quite right. Pretend I know nothing.

@don_rivers wow, very thorough answer – exactly what I wanted, thanks a bunch! 🙂

Welcome, @Thorobredz, to the cult of PS3 🙂

Just realized I’ve known @Thorobredz (Chris Dunn) for like 4 years now. Most of it seemed to make some kind of sense at the time 😀

Looking at some pics from 2006. Realizing my life since the divorce (’05) – like a bad movie script – didn’t have much of a second act.

So, though it was not financially wise, it benefits all of us, so, we went ahead and replaced the broken PS3 with a new PS3 slim.

The broke PS3 doesn’t play games, but mom gets it in her room so she can finally organize all those memory cards for her PSP’s.

Sweet! Found VeggieTales on Netflix, streaming it via the PS3 for Wesley 🙂 Had that PS3 Netflix disc for 3 months, finally get to use it!

Sigh. There are times I have to grab a bible and look up Romans 8:28. You know, just to make sure it’s still there.

Replaying Mirror’s Edge on PS3. Stunning in concept, design, and execution. Always reminds me of those great chase scenes in The Matrix.

I uploaded a YouTube video — The Ritual (Me and Wesley making a latte) http://youtu.be/r1mFD_VixTM?a

@don_rivers @1prdpgn I really thought we were gonna stop by but the fates were against us 🙁 we’ll host the coffee tweetup 🙂

@don_rivers waching trending topics? Um, did you bring your laptop to a super bowl party?

@don_rivers ah. Ok, well, that’s not so geeky then 😛

@don_rivers @1prdpgn You’re on my desktop webcam widget. I’m watching you O.O

@1prdpgn I was gonna ask earlier why you didn’t have your cam on but I decided that might seem kinda creepy 😛

Just noticed the pic I took of @1prdpgn‘s cam made it to flickr but didn’t auto-twitter yet.

Cooking dinner while Norah Jones, Beatrice Martin, and Natalie Marchant sing to me via the Bose 🙂 (my "breathy female vocals" playlist 😉 )

I decided to finally respond to some private msgs on facebook and it just says something went wrong. Hrmph. Well, I tried. Back to work.

Downloaded 78 episodes of the Sesame Street Podcast and copied them on to Welsey’s PSP – he is one thrilled kid 🙂

For some reason the sesame street podcast hasn’t worked on psp since august, so I guess i’ll start getting them for him manually.

(Btw, the sesame street podcast has been running for over three years – his psp automagically downloads each new episode for over a year.)

Someday I will do a full how-to on "Sony PSP for Toddlers". He has his own photos, music, podcasts, movies and has for almost 2 years.

And since it’s portable, he isn’t a "couch tater tot", glued to a tv. He carries it around with all his other toys. In a protective case 🙂

.@don_rivers I actually have the japanese LaserDisc of Pulp Fiction (eng w/ jp subs). It’s my only jp LD (except my Criterion of Akira.)

@don_rivers are you saying you have that on ld? If you are an ld collector, too, i’ve never caught on.

@don_rivers … aw, rats. Thought i’d finally found someone to do some trading with 😛

This demarrara sugar we get for the bar is larger crystals than typical sugar and i’ve taken to sprinkling a little bit on top of my lattes.

And I don’t mean much and not to flavor the drink, just a little atop the foam for an ocassional tiny bit of sweet crunchy. Very nice.
