  • I was going to upgrade my parent's finicky Vista machine to Win7, but the DVD drive doesn't work. Upgrading to Win7 would fix this… #

  • Okay, Christmas is over. Now what am I doing for New Year's? #
  • @pfqrst Have you seen what the new security protocols are for flying into the US? I'd love to join you in Paris, but not a cavity search! #
  • @pfqrst *sticks out tongue* #

  • Merry Christmas, everyone! (Yes, that's it. No witty or sardonic commentary. Adorable nine-month-olds (not mine) render me somewhat cuddly.) #
  • @pfqrst Is seat "K" even inside the plane? =) Have a great trip! #
  • Small children make wrapping paper seem merely an obstacle. #

  • Poking around my parent's basement at years worth of my accumulated youth makes me feel incredibly nostalgic. And man my toys were awesome. #

  • Still awake at 4am after Benadryl, a sleep mask, and a hot bath. What do I have to try next? #
  • @Cytherea Sitting and staring at the ceiling. I added ear plugs, switched pillows, and turned the heat on; then I waited. Sleep came. #
  • I think my napping 9 month old niece has the right idea… #
  • On vacation for only 4 days, and they've already broken my component. Either I can't take a day off again, or they should take a few years. #

  • Not sleeping on a redeye is an absolute waste of a day. #
  • Why did Amazon raise the price on the Lego set I had decided to buy while I was off network for ten hours? #
  • I just realized I can't remember when I started dating my first girlfriend. It doesn't matter in the slightest, but it still depresses me. #
  • @cytherea @pfqrst I can get to fall 1996, but then… September, I think. It was a Friday… I need to look at a calendar. If I care. #
  • Being lent a car that has an "Engine oil low" warning the first time you start it is not relaxing. #
  • After crashing at the hotel for four hours, I feel hungover (I haven't had anything to drink), a little less tired, and I want to see Liza. #
  • I'm apparently still tired enough that I confused @DarthParadox with darthvader. Maybe I shouldn't drive… #
  • I can't remember what I bought from Amazon that's so heavy… #
  • I'm ignoring work emails more than usual while on vacation to avoid ruining any semblance of a holiday mood. #

  • I love traveling during the holidays! (Okay, or not.) #
  • It took me almost an hour to progress from "This Diet Coke tastes funny" to "This Diet Coke is actually Sprite!" #
  • We got the gate o the airport early enough today that they couldn't let us checkin when we first got here, and now my Sudafed has worn off. #
  • …I think the autocomplete on this version of cetwit might hate me. Let's pretend that last post was coherent, hmm? #

  • @scarywhitegirl Is that a comment in favor of getting Barbie, or opposed? #
  • @pfqrst You'll know they've become sophisticated when they start asking when wine starts being served. #
  • I am annoyed that Amazon will let me choose "Lego Star Wars," but not "Lego Star Wars The Original Trilogy And None Of That Prequel Crap." #
  • @DarthParadox You're absolutely right; their acting is merely plasticy, not wooden. But I still want something from the original trilogy. #

  • @DarthParadox @cytherea I look forward to people who weren't there trying to catch up. Playback only shows so much… #
  • I don't want to get my 8-year-old cousin a Barbie doll. I'm getting in trouble for wanting to get her something educational. #
