I work in an office with about 500 people. So far I have seen FIVE Halloween costumes. Welcome to Loserville.

@emmarockin You’re never too old to trick or treat. :-)
@Rockhopperbot_ Just so you know… I’m not THAT Rockhopper (but I do know him, and he’s pretty cool).
I have my Halloween costume prepared… but also a trimmed down lighter-weight version for my morning run.
Bought a bunch of Halloween candy that I hate… no leftovers for me!
@OldCrank Wait, you have messages! But first, you need to complete your profile. Little red circles with numbers in them. See who likes you!
Apparently, I fail at modern web design. I’m supposed to get in your way and interrupt you at every turn, leaving you disoriented and angry.
@WNFIV @NewRaleigh When you search Google maps for a particular city, it outlines the city limits with red dots. Sorry to disappoint.
Nice of @JakeShimabukuro to schedule his NC concert on veteran’s day. School holiday means our kids can go, too!
Python 3 is like the metric system. It’s way past time to switch, and we know it. But we’re still stalling…
Big thanks to @davidmarschall for inviting our family to see @DiWuPiano and @ncsymphony tonight!
We’re a good 10 miles from the NC State Fairgrounds, but we can still hear the fireworks! From inside our house!
Tiny sliver of a new moon trying to hide against a deep blue morning sky.
Today I moved my contacts from Apple iCloud to self-hosted ownCloud. It syncs (vCards) with iPhone and Mac contacts.app. #FTW
This morning’s wispy clouds ALMOST make the chilly wait at the bus stop worthwhile. pic.twitter.com/elPU7JI7Yp
Harper has a new button (and I sweated through the whole operation). pic.twitter.com/TnAwsWA9f0
I find it funny that so many YouTube videos are filmed with the subject sitting on a bed, regardless of the content.
For this week’s Python lesson with D2, I left my phone in another room. Much better! #focus

Lucky! We arrived at the lighthouse just in time for the last tour of the day, last day of the season! pic.twitter.com/Xzkc9ykKgD
Exploring KFFA (by bike and on foot).
@kateleth To learn a new word, you’re supposed to use it several times in the next week. You’ve really challenged me this time!
@Vermelho0106 @Jonnh_85CP Not me! You can’t just put an @ sign in front of the pirate captain’s name!
Found a disposable camera on the beach, took a picture of my girls, then left it where owner might find it. That landed me in the doghouse.
Leave it to me to take a simple analog hobby like acoustic ukulele and mess it all up with wires and USB cables. :-)
Bought a bike rack. Got stuck on assembly step #1. Kit was missing one nut (a large and crucial one). Hardware store trip, now fixed.
@pwbrewer No, but print(“x=%d, y=%d” % (x,y) ) is easier to understand if it’s called a madlib. (BTW, not interested in “corrections” ATM).
For today’s Python lesson, it helped if we referred to the string format operator as “madlibs”.
@zobskewed BTW, is your avatar pic a violin (or relative), a bass guitar or an electric ukulele?
@zobskewed @mkennedy2d It’s just a balancing act of cost vs demand vs quality. And they want to push streamed iTunes radio instead.
@mkennedy2d @zobskewed I worked on an FM radio phone at Ericsson in ’99. Hard to get quality sound so small. Apple would never approve.
I think my main value-add at $WORK is to prevent us from doing stupid things. Sadly, I am not keeping up with that ever-growing workload.
If you’ve been thinking about attending @AllThingsOpen open source conference, early bird prices ($199 for 2 days) ends on Wednesday.
If a normal day at the office is like a merry-go-round, then today is a square dance!
Today was just another tap dancing, Python learning, festival going, uke playing, theater acting, pizza partying kind of day. Whew!
My best material is wasted. #comedy
We had to cut our visit to the Wide Open Bluegrass festival short today… our two thespians have another performance tonight!
Thanks to the folks at the @MartinGuitar tent at Raleigh’s Wide Open Bluegrass festival for hosting an open mic. My first uke song on stage!
D2 doesn’t want everyone to know it, but she’s learning a bit of Python.
So proud of my two little actresses! D1 shown here… pic.twitter.com/Rbwex5SEuG
@JakeShimabukuro Just missed you in NC, waiting for your return.
@JakeShimabukuro “Four strings for life” (borrowed from your documentary title)
@RunKeeper Now I see you can only edit manual activities. Would be nice to enter heart rate on GPS runs using iOS app.
@RunKeeper Can I type heart rate into an activity on the iOS app? Web help says yes, but app just edits note. Using azumio HR app.
Three weeks ago, I burned my already-callused finger on a coffee pot. Just this week, the callus finally peeled off. Feels more normal now.

$COMPANY had a “virtual 10k run” this morning - 7am in your time zone, wherever you are. 10k at 7am? Virtual? I slept in instead.
