11:30 Someone is playing christmas music in the office loudly enough that I can hear it in my little corner. Too soon, folks, too soon. #
11:34 @lilMDP We're starting our gingerbread house project on Friday after the ballgame, but I draw the line at before the turkey is cooked. #
11:38 KB and I are getting bolder with our gingerbread house this year. We're going to go from-scratch with this pattern: bit.ly/4rYKfU #
11:44 @prosodic I'm definitely torn between It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street. White Christmas is a definite third, though. #
12:45 Oooh, I have 8 Google Wave invites now... if anyone is still hunting for one, @ me or DM me and I'll try to send you one. #
13:52 As a sign that we've taken the 'kids playing with grownup things' too far, Craftsman sells a MY FIRST NAIL GUN. WTF? bit.ly/5cmU95 #
13:55 @thinkgeek What about a geeky gingerbread house contest? That'd be fun! #
16:06 @kf4okz thx for the heads up, got that just in time. 31's not much better #
16:36 Almost to 459 on 31. That was a dumbass move on my par #
17:35 Oh noes! Mom called and said that KB got thrown from her horse today and might have a broken arm. Poor kid. :( #
18:02 @kf4okz I hear she's most upset about the broken saddle! Let us know what the docs say. #
18:18 @kf4okz mom asked if they're going to check out the rest of her, esp since I had a ruptured spleen after falling once #
18:48 @kf4okz how is her arm? Any news on that? #
19:10 @kf4okz can they set it there? And i'm guessing she'll get her pick of dinner tonight. #
19:35 @kf4okz full fracture or green stick? And that's an unacceptably long wait imo #
23:03 Good luck to @joethepeacock and @calebmasland in tomorrow's ATL half marathon! #
23:54 Meh, I'm not sleepy and I need to get to bed so that I can get up and cook a turkey in the AM. No fair! #

01:16 Nashville! #
01:36 How many interchanges can one city have? Gah. #
03:56 Made it to elizabethtown before deciding to crash, only to be followed around by some drunk/drugged/crazy lady. Dead bolt, check. #
10:59 Cops picked up crazy lady. I am well rested, bright eyed, bushy tailed, and ready to go! #
16:18 Almost to cleveland and there's a big backup on the interstate. Ohio roads are nowhere near as awesome as Kentucky's, btw. #
16:20 3 wreckers. No traffic flow past the accident. Not good. #
17:26 In dwntn cleveland. Would break into the drew carey theme song if I could remember the beginning. #
18:00 Finally found the right hotel, AND my friend from clemson. Eyes peeled for @johnron and dr rainey. #
19:31 We're sharing twitter names and talking about tweeting (and how not to use it or other social networks) at #arnova09 #
21:43 I saw dr guo countless times in the hall at uga. We're finally having our first conversation. #arnova09 #

11:58 @machinegundaisy OMG, you're growing up so fast! *sniffle* #
17:09 At the stables, watching kb ride queenie. She doesn't seem interested in going fast, hehe #
17:48 @kf4okz She kinda loped, but not for very long. She didn't stay out for too long because it's so cold out. #
18:00 KB and I are enjoying ourselves with watching the #wootoff. Shopping fun for the whole family! #

10:32 My sanity is still in place, which I find to be very unusual considering all that I've got going on this month. #
13:30 I think that asking for a side cup of sauce at Milo's inevitably results in getting less sauce on your burger. :( #
16:27 Barry offered pizza earlier, and Terry brought cookies from Edgar's in this afternoon. OMG, I'm going to asplode after the payday-noms.. #
18:11 Going home now. Yay! #
18:12 @lilMDP OMG, I do that too. #
22:23 I can't even get enough bandwidth to stream a stupid tv episode off CBS's website (which doesn't properly buffer). Both they and AT&T #fail. #

18:05 Laundry's almost done, got rid of a bunch of old papers and junk, things are all nice and orderly in time for my travels! #
20:53 I think this is the first time in my life that I've been excited about visiting Atlanta. Hooray for @machinegundaisy and @joethepeacock! #
20:54 In other news, @arturdavis, who I HAD wholeheartedly supported for Governor, lost my vote bc he supports the Norfolk Southern RR hub. :( #
21:24 @lissarose78 For me, taco cravings are usually a precursor to being level-1 tipsy. #

19:51 Holy hogs, the old food world is becoming a piggly wiggly and they're already stocking food! #

20:46 My feet feel like they're going to fall off, but hearing people rave about my food is totally worth it. #
21:00 If it weren't for the foot thing, I could totally be a caterer #
22:03 So exhausted. Still an hour or three to go. Will be bringing home tons of leftovers, though! #

11:45 About to get started with a ton of cooking for the terrier rescue event tomorrow night! www.bhambtr.org #
12:22 @kf4okz chicken cakes, shrimp & grits cakes, meatballs, cypress inn muffins, cornbread, chicken/feta pastry.. Lots of yummy stuff! #
20:03 Wrapped things up for the night. Still a long way to go, but we made tremendous progress. #
20:41 It never ceases to amaze me how busy la fiesta is. Wonder how it'd be if you could actually see it from the road. #
20:54 There's a guy here by himself who's having a long philosophical conversation on the phone. It's funny to hear one side. #
21:16 @kf4okz got into good conversation with philosophy dude. Will leave in a bit. #

08:02 I really, really, REALLY don't like being up this early, but here I am. Ugh. #
10:21 Today is going to be unfathomably crazy. Work, errands, more work, then planning out my 2 day cooking spree. Phew! #
11:52 RT @JohnArchibald: #Smitherman thanks her husband, Sen. Rodger Smitherman. She calls him "First Dude." // Did she HAVE to go Palin on Day 1? #
18:27 Home now. Phew! #
19:07 @d0tmatrix I'm doing the food for the Bham Boston Terrier Rescue's Halloween party.. www.bhambtr.org #

14:16 Once again, a woot-off when I'm low on cash and super busy at work. No fair. #
17:27 @themba I actually think it's ugly - empty header, harder to find news, and Fox will call it the 'Communist News Network' bc it's red. #

15:44 OK, these shipments and cold-calls and meeting requests from vendors about our grant application is getting REALLY old. #
18:42 I wish I'd remembered my netbook today and known that dinner wouldn't be waiting for me when I got home, I would've gone somewhere to write. #

13:08 Please excuse me while I send some warm-and-fuzzy good vibes to @johnron, who's doing his comps defense right now. #
13:37 @vulcansmuse Yeah well, some of us don't go over the mountain in the OTHER direction without good reason :P #
17:02 Just spent a little too much $ on lots of clothes and a little makeup. What remains will be spent on Christmas gifts, I guess. And gas/beer. #

10:27 Just blew the mind of an RUS policy analyst by asking for any historical data from the 30s and 40s, hehe #
11:04 My mom is now sick, too. I, however, remain unscathed by the evils of the flu, because apparently my immune system rocks. #
11:14 @themba That's really sad, because sociology has so many useful applications in the other fields. What psych I use is more soc-based. #
11:51 @kf4okz Check out today's kids.woot, that's hilarious! #
13:03 RT @dcagle: I think this cartoon about the importance of #NPR (even during its pledge drive) hits the nail on the head bit.ly/2iwqXu #
14:51 Apparently a prof at UT-Austin did some work that's almost identical to my broadband research plans about 4 years ago. Email sent! #
14:53 Hahaha.. RT @JohnArchibald: There are a lot of people in the courtroom with $30 socks. None on the jury. #langford #

10:50 I got a pleasant phone call from the NTIA on my way out the door this morning :) #
12:38 @DoctorLindsay This is why I always version up my documents with a datestamp.. it's scary to lose all your hard work! #
13:40 @vulcansmuse I do that too. I love the quiet and hate talking, so if I can I'll try to avoid even making phone calls in the first place. #
16:31 Having my ear talked off... #
16:35 @kf4okz Nah, was on a work call. I might actually be getting out of here in a little while! #
16:45 @AlisonW That almost-happens to me on a weekly basis - now I keep a glasses screwdriver in my purse and tighten them frequently! #
16:47 About to get out of here! A couple of errands to do before heading home, and then some data work tonight. Yay progress! #
21:59 I really wish that I had some county-level data on the rural electrification administration right about now. #
22:00 Apart from that, my broadband models are interesting and have an excellent fit, even if they're very simplistic. #
22:01 RT @joethepeacock: "The greatest thing about Twitter is you can quote whatever you want and make up the source." -- Mark Twain #
22:31 Could someone please tell me why unemp. and broadband avail. have a pos/sig rel'n in both directions even after controlling for pop. den?! #
