don't think i'm doing the a/port ride tomorrow... rain looks likely and even though temps will be fine i'm not really in the mood for it.
ltcm, one of my fave "business + mathematics + computers + billions" emergent behavior stories, gets some press http://ping.fm/a75dN
@benjdyer correct you are sir... technology to the rescue of law-abiding citizens who enjoy g-forces while out buying eggs for the wives.
@benjdyer understeer never sells in a down economy... people conserve arm strength to hit the etrade sell button with more force :)
got a couple ebay auctions ending tonight... already made money on them... secret: well-lit, hq pics at low aperture w/ fuzzy, artsy bg
got a short workout in... testing some server deployment stuff i built today... marc's coming over in a bit to watch ufc.
laptop seems to be working again after an anxious backup-checking hour letting it repair itself. not a fan of 1st gen ssd drives.
laptop complained of corrupt files after a crash/restart. running chkdisk now but screen's ominously blank w/active hdd light. unwoot.
researching computer games for a 3.5 y/o... any tips? want to get one for ava today because she "loves the letters" on screen.
hanging out with aves, getting to some email, figuring out what's happening on this slightly damp and rainy day.

how to handle twitter followers you don't know who're just following to get you to check out their stuff? i clean house every month-ish.
what's on tap today? a little work. hopefully a little workout. then terp's going to the high museum and i'll watch the kids.

picking up some pedialyte for a sick emme in case nobody's open tomorrow... she's so stuffed-up that she can't take bottle
don't like this whole lying to kids about santa thing... little lies become elaborate rouzes... no need for it.
heading back to atlanta... torrential downpour... the imaginary santa/rudolph contingent is proverbially hosed
heading out to villa rica for the dean family xmas eve. scheuled for 3:00p, an hour away from our house. it's 3:39p now. right on time.
held 300w for 5min... had more in me... just my first test, getting used to the duration/intensity. more riding then a short run.
@metamarshall too kind... mythredz on sidebar could work... gimme a couple days, maybe a week... gonna add css control so it's perty.
kendy stopped by with a present for ava from bigc. terp took kiddos to doctor. i'm hoping for a short workout this morning.

something nostalgic about flashing xmas tree lights... so iconic... they trigger memories of xmas eve as a child... and of epilepsy
managed to get a short indoor ride done. did some intervals and higher intensity stuff to make up for the short duration.
no workout yet... heather had me running errands and watching the kids from 2-7p... would like to hop onto bike but it's late.
test... updating status to 23 social media services at once using http://mythredz.com and http://ping.fm... let's see if it works
