Walmart to Begin Selling E-Cigarettes? — http://chicagoindiepress.com/1465/national/walmart-selling-electronic-cigarettes/

RT @vudufans: 99 Cent Movie of the Day for 1/18 is "In Bruges" http://fb.me/MF0tHeGz

Got a cappuccino at Dexter’s (typical big latte calling itself a capp) – alas, missed the proprieter. Will try another time.

Btw, reminder, I try not to judge cafes too harshly – they serve what the public wants. Make it by traditional recipe and they’ll complain.

Most garden variety American cafes, there’s two possibilities when asking for a cappuccino – soap bubbles foam or a latte.

Now at Walmart with my mini-me.

@CoffeeAdventure Nooooooooooooo!!!!

Thrilled. Netflix InstantWatch added a whole bunch of episodes of "Word World" – a 5-7yo reading edu show. Looks good so far.

RT @vudufans: 99 Cent Movie of the Day for 1/17 is "A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)" http://fb.me/QXwlxRgH

RT @prdpgn: Be normal, and the crowd will accept you. Be deranged, and they will make you their leader.

@CoffeeAdventure Oh, that sucks.

$5 pizza with a $25 bottle of wine so it all balances out. "Hunger is the best sauce"? Pshaw. WINE is the best sauce.

Made cappuccinos this morning. Haven’t done that in weeks(?). Been so busy with all the xmas coffee stuff (siphon pot, 20oz presses).

Yes, I am secure enough in my manhood to vape strawberry bubble gum e-juice in a pink atomizer. (…huh?)

To watch a movie on Vudu PS3 is pricy, BUT the free app itself is a portal to info, reviews, even Wikipedia integration, all in a great UI.

We just had a window-rattler. Everyone WAS asleep. RT @RamboKK: They need to quit this boom shit… they’re shaking my whole damn house!

RT @don_rivers: Loud f-ing sonic boom at 9:21pm. WTF.

Dreamcast Collection for 360 and PC Revealed (don’t get excited) http://bit.ly/i1sqxZ

@don_rivers I was wondering if that was what happened. Done that quite a few times over the last couple years.

.@MicheleSims1 New coffee shop? What?

@MicheleSims1 You have a bad link in your last. But i got there via the archive and i’ll be visiting them soon 🙂

@MicheleSims1 Hate to be the bearer of further bad news but, as I look back, I see it’s been messing up your site link every time.

@prdpgn Hey, it’s as much a media powerhouse as the PS3 is, so, who needs games? We PS3’ers have that PSP Remote Play access, though 🙂

RT @sween: Yes. Let’s all freak out over astronomical connect-the-dots.

Package arrived. Just made my first diy bottle of unflavored nic juice. Less than $4 of supplies for an amount I’ve been paying $11+ for.

Terra cooked dinner. Steak, baked potato, broccoli with the leftover fondue cheese sauce, ’07 Red Truck cab sauv. Sick days are good 😉

181.fm Chill just got even cooler – cover of "Tonight You Belong To Me" from The Jerk by The Bird & The Bee. Where else you gonna hear that?

(yeah, I know "Tonight You Belong To Me" is older than The Jerk but it’s certainly the most popular version of my generation.)

WTF??!!! Isn’t it a little late for house-shaking sonic booms?

RT @Samanthosaurus: becoming suspicious that my fondness for Alamogordo is just an extra cruel case of stockholm syndrome. #halp #landof …

Interesting. Thought it sounded familiar. http://christophercornelius.com/wp/2010/01/20/lifestream-for-january-20th-2010/

Soooo, I’m gonna guess there’s something they do yearly at the base right around this time that involves late-evening booms. (??)

RT @vudufans: 99 Cent Movie of the Day for 1/11 is "North by Northwest" http://fb.me/NSOp5zQJ

(I’ve been sitting here, finding out how awesome The Guild is, thanks to Netflix InstantWatch.)

Hrm. Just noticed my tweets yesterday never even left my phone or something.

From jan8: Today, we watched everything on the bluray of Ink. Two short featurettes, trailers, the movie w/ commentary, the movie itself.

jan8: So far, it’s like The Tick (live action) exists in same universe as Dr. Horrible. I keep expecting Pink Pummeler, et al. to show up.

Sick today. Bad cold, I guess. So weak even my mind and moods can barely move. Surrendered and easygoing. Definitely not myself today 😛

RT @failwhalequotes: When your phone is dying and it decides to use every last bit of battery it has by flashing and buzzing to tell you …

Sick day. Laying on the couch, boots off, watching Wesley play. http://flic.kr/p/99dbHT

Wesley’s spn is gummy worms and his first viewing ever of The Goonies in bed with his turtle that shines stars around his room 🙂

We are in Terra’s room, watching a couple (few?) episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents on a $5 disc set she just got at Walmart.

Wesley is congested today. So, it sounds like he keeps saying "bobby" instead of "mommy".

Wesley is watching/reciting xmas vids and I just noticed him fairly accurately mimicking my brother’s gestures and facial expressions.
