Probably won’t use Woot again. They don’t appear to safeguard credit card numbers. Good thing my peeps at the bank shut down that jazz. #
Apparently not, @chickenlittle. Used a card I rarely use at all at Woot, and soon after several charges were rung up at various stores. #
I don’t like podcasts sounding like radio. Something weird about “real radio” voices on my Mac. Like This Week in Tech. Gives me the willies #
Finally, Netflix delivering Watch Instantly over Mac. Props, props — works awesome, even over my janky Internet connection. #

Herd of fat people at the gym. AKA, 48 Hours of New Year Resolutions, Soon To Be Resolved. #

At cafe, where nerds are arguing whether Gandalf is human. Meanwhile, I’m reading volume 10 of Vertigo’s “Fables.” And I know the answer. #
“Liches are bitches to fight, man, especially if you’re just human.” “Is that how you say liches?” So now I’m leaving. #
I mean, OF COURSE liches are bitches to fight. DUH! We needn’t talk about this, just as we don’t speak aloud whenever we breathe or blink. #

And now? Now, I shall tweet. #
Headed to BART, ladyfriend in tow. We’re already halfway smashed. So tonight should rock. #
Ladyfriend doesn’t know silver from gold. She makes awesome lasagna, though. #
Hate it when my pants are too long and I’m standing in the San Francisco stew. #
Did I say hate, @califmom? I meant love. #
Drinking at The Latin American in the Mission. Hipsters are hip deep. And wishing they were me. But who doesn’t? Don’t answer that. #
Somebody totally ripped it at The Latin American and it is not going away. The horror. The horror… #

“I’m part of the solution, instead of THE solution.” Me, explaining the difference between new job and Nolo (which didn’t get the solution). #
(Yeah, yeah, I’m a dick when it comes to work.) #
To everyone except @joethepeacock, I wish you a very merry Christmas. Joe, I wish you a Christmas. I bet you get a Christmas tomorrow! #
Dear Santa: I want a monkey, one with dagger skills and ninja sneakiness. And does assassinations on command. Name should be Bonzo. Thanks! #

No traffic on the Bay Bridge today — took me 25 minutes to get from Berkeley to SF. Such joy engendered! I finally feel the holiday spirit! #
Can’t wait to see what color the flick version of “The Road” is, @TIHSHO. #
If the iPhone nano happens, it will: A) just be a weak version of 3G, or B) won’t have all the goods, nor be tied to one carrier. #

You know you’ve reached new heights of sophistication and maturity when you can say, “No one makes gummi bears like Trolli.” And mean it. #

The bad thing about my Twitter OGs being way popular is that they miss my tweets. The good thing? I’m about to talk SOOO much shit. #
Oh Christ. Old man ruining my quiet moment at Starbucks by singing along to “Georgia on my Mind.” My silent sonic shouts of STOP do nothin’. #
Not going to Boise for Xmas, thank god. Couldn’t announce until mom had signed off, but just got the word and it’s official. #

Forgot my book today, so I’m at Starbucks. There’s an obese woman doing the pee dance in front of the restroom. Highly entertaining. #
Sure, we should educate society, but problems abound with widespread literacy, too. Example: Everyone thinks they are writers. Totally lame. #
Anyone? Anyone? Also: Can I get a WHA-WHAAA? #
What the hell are the shorty awards? Will the ladies be impressed if I win one? #

Missed NPR? Recap: 1) Ponzi schemes, another flavor of Wall Street rip-off. 2) The Fed cutting rates. 3) Obama. So, nothing new. Again. #
Huge, slow line at Starbucks, so I tried to take advantage of AT&T’s free-wifi-for-iPhones deal. But it never connected. So now I’m peeved. #
I want Twitter to give me back my shortcuts to my victims. I mean, my favorite tweeters. Anyway, 33 tweeps listed on sidebar is not enough. #
