  • 07:05 Another 800+ photos uploaded to the photo site last night dbrenner.smugmug.com (note: these are not of Dyson, but archive photos) #
  • 07:05 I'm getting ready to start on another batch of 1000+. I had time while I was waiting for the girls and watching Dyson and Gina sleep. :-) #
  • 07:06 Let me know if you see anything that is tagged incorrectly, I think they are all right. #
  • 14:48 What would possess a child to pour spit into my shoes?!? At least she told me the truth. #
  • 18:18 First dinner put with the little man. Where do we go... Arthur's for burger madness, of course! #
  • 20:54 two weeks since I've been on the bike. It was a short ride tonight on the trainer. I need to check the chain because it was skipping. #
  • 20:55 Now, only 9 weeks until the MS150. Will I be ready in time? Only time will tell... #
  • 22:55 Just uploaded 1,229 new photos to my SmugMug dbrenner.smugmug.com (archive photos from '06/'07, not Dyson) #

  • 10:10 @this_monograph great job on the first day. Keep it up! #
  • 12:10 At the inlaws. Gina is doing better mostly. Kids are testing to see if their limits have changed. Normal stuff. #
  • 16:26 Finished cataloging photos from 2007. That's another 800+ to go up tonight. Now, on to 2006... #

  • 08:06 1st night with baby home. interesting storm woke me. then Peri screaming for mommy. overall not bad from upstairs. wonder how mommy did... #
  • 12:25 @drfuzz make that two of us that don't care about MJ #
  • 12:26 New babies are very sophorific. I didn't realize I needed a two hour nap with my son, but he insisted :-) #
  • 12:36 bit.ly/vu0PR Kroger management shake up. #
  • 12:43 bit.ly/KXaY5 seems appropriate lately. #
  • 15:55 @donttrythis didn't pay attention to T&Cs for contract and AT&T is charging 11k for a few hours of web surfing in Canada. Pls RT! #
  • 15:57 @donttrythis the T&Cs are rediculous but suspension of svc for non-payment is legitimate recourse. #
  • 21:29 Great day at home with family. The girls seem a little insecure about things but otherwise good. On to the weekend. #

  • 09:46 @aRON23 I left that cash in my other pants. Never mind. #
  • 11:00 Work is good today. Catching up on email + other misc things that happened in the last 48 hours. Its amazing how fast you can fall behind. #
  • 14:03 Afternoon cleared up. One more meeting (until 5 though) and then to see my wife and son. #
  • 20:39 Gina and Dyson are doing great. Still working out when they are coming home. Will know in the morning for sure. #

6:04am:
  • 10:10 At some point today I will actually make it back to the hospital. Between some straightening at house and travel it's taking FOREVER. #
  • 13:12 Dyson is looking even cuter today. He has a great disposition. We have been really lucky with all of our children. #
  • 18:30 Really quiet day here. Had some visitors. Going to work the next couple of days while the wife is in the hospital. All things are good. #
  • 19:41 Changing a boy is very different from a girl. Girls don't create Bellaggio-esque fountains if they have the urge while diaperless. #
  • 21:52 Just uploaded 13 new photos to my SmugMug dbrenner.smugmug.com #

  • 07:23 Statement by the Ayatollah demonstrates lack of touch with reality; wouldn't piss of the protesters not make stop? tinyurl.com/lutx8z #

  • 17:23 @miz_anneliese hold finger on app until it wiggles. Click on 'x' to delete. Hit home to get out of delete mode. #

  • 06:24 So many bicycles... #
  • 06:29 No really... twitpic.com/7db06 #
  • 08:52 To half way point. Hills suck. Gonna suck worse on way back. Feeling good though. #
  • 10:31 13 miles to start. Still feeling good. Hills were worse in my head. #

  • 11:46 Hooray twitpic.com/7dsdm #

  • 07:31 @miz_anneliese do you need a ride home from the airport? #
  • 08:55 I just joined Facebook. Let's see what the hype is about. #
  • 09:07 Getting ready to try out new Burley bike trailer/stroller. Need to see how the girls fit and if they like it before take them on the bike. #
  • 11:57 Mowed lawn. Gina trimmed up the bushes. Yard work done for day. It's getting warm. Glad tomorrow's ride is early. #
  • 11:59 @rdlugosz I'm using another client until Twitterific is fixed. I'm annoyed by it. #
  • 12:02 Why didn't anyone learn a lesson from Y2K?!? Twitter 32bit issue is inexcusible. It's not like 8 bytes for a 64bit would be expensive. #
  • 14:01 @JR_Hughson tell your youngest "happy bday" for me #
  • 14:15 I think it's awesome that "Space Ace" was released for the iPhone. #
  • 14:15 @JR_Hughson I did friend Jen. Or are you talking about Sam? #
  • 15:33 We finally have a quiet Saturday at home with no commitments and I have no fraking idea what to do with myself. That is completely weird. #
  • 16:29 Moe's for dinner! carbs before a long ride FTW #
  • 16:55 Broke valve while filling tires prepping for tomorrow. Needed to practice tire changes anyway. CO2 cartridges rock. #
  • 19:17 Aiming to be in bed by 9 to get enough sleep. Wonder I the girls will let that happen... #
  • 04:59 5am is really early. But I think I'm ready for the ride. Time to get some breakfast and head out. #

  • 07:27 luckily, I backed up the phone last night... just waiting for the restore... #
  • 08:37 just ordered Watchmen BluRay. I can't wait! #
  • 09:21 When you're half-way through development, it's a bad time for a scope change #
  • 09:28 @StaticGuy true that! but at least then, you can call it a new project :-) #
  • 14:10 @miz_anneliese only do it on expense account :-) #

  • 11:09 checking the #wwdc feeds. apparently, everyone needs to say they are waiting in line :-) #
  • 13:28 Twitter is awesome for wwdc updates. Kind of think the new MacBooks sound cool but I don't think I NEED it :-) #
  • 14:17 @BenKuchera totally agree that AT&T is fucking the users of the iPhone with this new release #
  • 15:42 Looking forward to iPhone OS 3.0. Not sure if 3Gs is the right upgrade. Need to look closer at features and see how software plays out. #

  • 10:43 Talking bike safety class. Getting ready to venture out onto Colrein Ave! #
  • 11:50 I think I destroyed my chain. FUCK #
  • 13:23 Chain was broken. Torqued a link when it came loose. Got a new one at Oakley Cycles. They rock. Now to clean off all the grease from bike. #
  • 13:24 BTW I did manage to survive ride on Colerain. Good teacher and good company. Wouldn't attempt alone. #
  • 19:26 Ready to be home. Long afternoon. Took girls swimming at dad's house. Gina loved being weightless for once :-) #

  • 07:56 some days I hate owning a home. found a new leak... the downstairs shower. luckily only happens in use. FUCK!!! #
  • 08:39 Ignoring leak since it doesn't when it's off. Going to the zoo with the girls so Gina can get some rest. Maybe she'll let me ride later. #
  • 08:41 Okay maybe "let me" is the wrong phrase. Let's try "get things organized enough that it is not a burden" is a better way to say it. #
  • 08:43 And yes, Gina took offense at the original phrasing. Don't tell her I told you ;-) #
  • 13:37 Zoo trip didn't go so well. Now we are home #
  • 13:42 @JR_Hughson @miz_anneliese I do realize she is on. That was supposed to be amusing. Clearly a FAIL. #

  • 09:44 Just registered for the breast cancer ride on June 14. I hope I'm not taking on too much. #
  • 11:16 @aRON23 depends on whether you live near a beach :-) #
  • 15:07 @aRON23 we can fix the no link problem. Call me later. #

  • 08:36 @miz_anneliese you touchy feely? Stop! You're freaking me out. #
  • 09:05 I hate dealing with txns from different timezones. Why couldn't CS majors come up with a consistent method. F*cking non-networked computers! #
  • 10:10 Off to CHMC for Peri's cast #
  • 12:01 Peri got a pink cast with rainbow sparkles. twitpic.com/6lr82 #
  • 13:40 @ANBrenner she fell off of a window seat and into the floor and a pile of toys. She's amazingly happy for a kid with a broken arm. #

  • 17:20 @JR_Hughson Add french fries. see if that helps :-) #
  • 17:38 @JR_Hughson its all a matter of quantities. For quantity(FF) >> quantity(NaCl+H20) its okay. For q(FF) << q(NaCl+H20) you are correct. :-) #
  • 19:05 I think it's awesome that "how it's made" is Ripley's favorite TV show #
  • 19:54 I hadn't heard of a cast that MUST get wet daily. twitpic.com/6mvqo #
