East Central Veterinary Hospital →
So @JimStanford is getting ready, planning to have Zoë to the vet as soon as they open. I hope it’s not too late.
My Jack Russell Terrier became ill Dec 26. We’ve been keeping a close eye & yesterday she was so perky… but now she is quite the opposite.
RT @gwbennett: Twitter’s new tagline. “TWITTER: Where you can drunk text ALL your friends at once” [Sadly…this seems to be true for some.]
Saw “Seven Pounds”. Hard to watch due to complex emotions. Even harder w/2 d-bags bhind us, makng rude sounds at most inappropriate moments.
Just noticed Larry Bud’s specials for Tuesday night’s Tweet Up: $3.50 Corona, Corona Light & Margaritas….. and for dinner, .75 cent Tacos.
My 14yo has been hanging out with @skyjuly, learning a few things re: digital photography, videography & Macs. Hopefully being helpful, too.
Tweet It Up Tuesday: at Zoomdweebie’s 4-5:30 http://tinyurl.com/7ee62l then at Larry Bud’s 7-9 http://tinyurl.com/a5g8dc RSVP on Facebook.
RT “Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it.” - W. Clement Stone [Thanks @powerwriter. Encouraging words!]
Ya know the drop down for selecting a DM recipient? For quite a while now it has not listed all the ppl who follow me. What’s up with that??
I’m at Wichita, KS, US (Wichita, KS, USA) - http://bkite.com/03idO
We’ve been listening to an audio recording of Neil Gaiman’s ‘Anansi Boys’ since we left TX. Fun, fun!
On I-20, heading East over same ground I crossed twice yesterday. All credit for early departure goes to @JimStanford. Shd be in ICT by 5pm.
Leaving in-laws house in Midland. No more George W. & Laura Bush smiling @ me every time I was in the bathroom. Undeniably creepy… yet OK.
So… Tuesday evening… a little drink-up to celebrate my having made 42 trips around the sun (boy, am I tired). Where?
Bed time. After holiday, birthday, cake, family, and sooooo much excitement. The barely 6yo is having a serious meltdown. Must go AFK now…
Tuesday Tweet-up at @Zoomdweebie’s is now on Facebook. http://tinyurl.com/7ee62l 4pm to 5:30. Be there!
Tuesday Evening Tweet-up at Larry Bud’s is now on Facebook. http://tinyurl.com/a5g8dc 7pm-9pm Come early, stay late.
Tuesday Tweet Up Info on Facebook — http://tinyurl.com/7ee62l AND http://tinyurl.com/a5g8dc (Facebook Group - http://tinyurl.com/6c7npz)
First time I’ve accessed the Internet by PC rather than mobile phone since Monday. Cannot tell you how good it feels.
My 6yo, wailing & sobbing: “Everyone’s being mean to me on my birthday! No one should be mean to The Birthday Boy!” Life is so unfair.
So… I have to make a decision about *where* to tweet up Tuesday night. East, West, Old Town… so many options… so little experience!!!!
Any suggestions? Hit me with your best shot… or just a bunch of whatever comes to mind.
I’m at Texas Roadhouse (4512 W SL-250 N Midland, TX 79707) - http://bkite.com/03gQk
Enjoying Shiner Bock on tap while waiting for my prime rib on my son’s birthday. - http://bkite.com/03gQE

Daughter & I are poking around, waiting for @MissMotorMouth. Wind is outrageous.. Tumbleweeds & dust everywhere. Can barely discern the sky.
RT @remarkablogger: “You’re doing [Twitter] right if you get the results you want. If you don’t, you’re not. Test, measure.”
I tweeted a while back that ppl shd identify desired outcomes of their use of social media. If U don’t know what U want, how will U know…
…if U R getting it at all, much less ENOUGH to make social media have value for U? (TX @MissMotorMouth)
Son was beside himself with excitement when told @ midnight it was already his birthday. He swore he’d stay awake until at least sunrise. ;)
Wondering how well Jeep is surviving the storm.
Wish I knew how the “Christmas miracle” meme was started. Search pulls up a ton of “true” miracles. I can haz filter to detect sarcasm, plz?
Dropping idea of seeing a matinee on Tuesday. Thinking about hanging out at @Zoomdweebie’s from 4pm-5:30pm, though. Have other ideas, 2. :]
RT @evskeys: Ok, that’s it. No more pictures, please. http://tinyurl.com/5aqz2x [I never wd’ve guessed, but it makes total sense.]
Considering a matinee on Tuesday (tweeps R welcome 2 come 2). The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ OR ‘The Spirit’. No ‘Frost/Nixon’ in ICT.
My 5yo is whomping @JimStanford at poker. I think @Chingay would be amused.
On Saturday I’ll have to switch to referring to my son as “my former 5yo” OR “my F5yo” OR the more generic “my 6yo”. *le sigh*
I forgot where @tylerstalder went for holiday vacay. Anyone know? No big reason for asking, just wondering ~where~ I should imagine him.
Watching @JimStanford’s nephew & my 5yo play w/ Wii Fit. We’re all ROFLOAO. Running the Highlands, I think. Son tripped & fell off a cliff!!
5yo son loves the pool table at @JimStanford’s brother’s house. I love the 4 golden retrievers & 1 old labrador. Very nice Christmas Day. =)
I’m going to be *aching* for a tweet-up by the time I get back. What time are YOU available on Tuesday? DM me, please. =)
Sleepy again @ 5AM. Merry Christmas! ~~ zzzZZZzzz
Oh Holy Night! Gasoline is $1.29/gallon in Midland, TX. Lots o’ huge pick-em-up trucks & guys in cowboy hats & boots, a’waiting to fill up!!
…wrapping gifts…
OH: um, grandma on dad’s side just added me on facebook. quit letting old people use computers!
Feeling caught in a prisoner’s dilemma. Don’t like the strategy necessary to guarantee *not* to lose, but can’t afford to actually lose.
I’m in Midland, TX - http://bkite.com/03bXG - until Saturday or Sunday.
