• Something, somewhere is not right. I have no idea what but it feels very odd today. #
• That can't be right, no email to my business account in three days. Some times I hate technology. #
• Argh. Back To The Future trilogy on BluRay turned up today and too much work to do to watch it. #
• Love the fact the new roof means no glare; it's much easier to work from the kitchen table now. Coding away while the kids run riot outside. #
• 3 hit with a belly bug. Not nice when you only have two loos…. #
• I've just lost my main desktop PC. My main work PC. My main income generating PC. This. Is. Not. A. Good. #
• Everything is backed up okay but the time to build a new one…oh boy. #
• New HD in, Win7SP1 installing. List of software to install waiting to be ticked off. It's good I have a regime in place to cover this. #
• Greetings from the new PC. Installs under way. #
• Of course CS5 would be the problem child… #
• Mouse Without Borders – like Synergy for PCs but with drag and drop file transfer. Great program, thanks @Microsoft http://t.co/ZLaYbTzo #
• Just heard Moo say "How about we turn it off and then turn it back on?" followed by "Told you it would work.". I couldn't be more proud. #
• Worse tech week ever, today the network collapsed and I've lost a day fixing the mess. #
• 9.00am and just back from a two hour drive around town. Time for a nap. #
• Wondering if last night's results means the WIlls' will be coming to the GF BBQ #

• Hmmmm. Email seems to be going everywhere except for where it was intended. #
• Why doesn't Microsoft Word recognise 'spreadsheet' as a word? #
• That's alarming. How did a song by 2Pac make it in to my music library? #
• And that would be the cool change rolling in outside my window. #
• Being driven to distraction by spam filters. #
• Yes feral driver. I will point out to you that it is wrong to drive one handed, on the phone through a school drop off area. #
• And it's also wrong to drive on the wrong side of the road just because you can't be bothered waiting for those turning at a light. #
• Listening to Electronic, Raise The Pressure, while I make pizzas. Had forgotten how good this album is. #
• Fast Empty Folder Finder http://t.co/94omFX3 /via @wordpressdotcom – fantastic free tool, cleaned up my old iTunes folder in seconds. #
• Best two aids to sleep; clear conscience and fresh sheets. #
• Kid Has SERIOUS Problem with Sandals – White Whine – A Collection of First-World Problems http://t.co/HsYeqns via @whiteWhines #
• Wondering if @m_a_walker Michael Walker and my mum would like some advice on things to do on September weekends. #
• New pair of sandals. That's my summer wardrobe update done. #

• How can we have 15 odd channels and nothing at all worth watching? #
• i take that back, Carlos is on ABC 2 #
• Frankie say. Frankie say. Frankie say. Frankie say. No more. #
• Bugger, there's the water meter reader. Means a round of bills on the way. #
• Just about ready to throw this PC out the window. It's like someone gave it a tranquilliser this morning. #
• Bugger, now Moo has discovered she loves sushi too. #whereisallmymoneygoing #
• That's a relief, Media Center will be part of Windows 8 http://t.co/EcUJbQu #

• Poor Bert, such a sick little boy today. #
• Fingers crossed Bert sleeps through the night, but early to bed just in case. #
• Sometimes I amaze myself. The depths of my stupidity truly knows no bounds. #
• I never thought I'd say this but, woh, too much lemon cordial in that one. #
• Good to have @abcdigmusic as a back up when @BBC6Music is repeating a documentary for the 20 billionth time. #
• Amazingly productive day, even more so when there's an incredible book sitting by my bed calling out to be finished. #
• Slow ftp server on this host is sending me around the bend. #
• Sturdy Concrete Towers #SovietSitcom #
• Here goes more blood. http://t.co/PDGfET2 #
• Listening to Primal Scream performing Sreamadelica live. I need Rae to go to the footy so I can watch it on the matching Bluray. #
• Eating at my desk, lucky I'm not employed by BHP #
• 10 minutes waiting in line at the post office and they had put the card in the wrong p.o box. Grrrr #
• Any advice on best DVD/Blu-ray ripping software? #
• North By Northwest on Gem. A good excuse to lie on the couch for a while. #
• Here comes the crop duster…. #
• New Doctor Who, HD torrent is up so here we go. #
• Woo Hoo! Bert just lost his first baby tooth! #
• Good to see Tigers are doing the annual get-our-hopes-for-next-year thing. #gotiges #
• Do Re Mi, Man Overboard, on DIG Music. Nice surprise. #
• Just picked up a Norden (http://t.co/xk9c8NT) dirt cheap on Ebay. At last we can all fit comfortably around the table. #

• There is not enough paracetamol in the world at the moment. #
• Appears TPG is having routing issues today, makes work tricky when you can't get where you need to. #
• Chose to have a shower just as the ice-cream man made his fortnightly visit to the street. Not sure the kids have truly forgiven me. #
• 5 loads of washing done, hung out and brought in. #thankyoufreakishlywarmdayforthistimeofyear #
• Scavenger just skulked up the street picking off all the electrical items put out for hard garbage. #
• Why is that many hard rubbish thieves seem to drive really nice cars? #
• We need to make wills. Kits okay or is it something that we really should get advice. No complex affairs to take care of. #
• Moo just came in and told me, quite earnestly, that she needs a Tiger tattoo. #
• Smartphone wars: Android topples iPhone http://t.co/qQ3DDgt via @theage #
• That's weird – postie delivered twice today, hours apart. #
• If you haven't watched Supersizers Go before switch over to SBS now! #
• Grrrrr. We need a bigger a house. Or one about 40cm wider. #
• Watching Insidious. If I had a gourd I'd be scared out of it. #
• Enough work for today, I'm claiming a little of my Sunday for some reading. #

• #teatowelclub My new retro radio. The Hawk sounds great. http://t.co/hT0pJU2 via @twitpic #
• Love clients who say yes to a conference call. Two hours in Friday evening traffic would not have been fun. #
• My feet are freezing but I have a client coming so I can't swap the shoes for nice warm slippers. #
• Meeting postponed!! Slippers here I come. #
• Telstra spent 4 hours trying to set up a clients phone and couldn't get it to work. Took me 7 minutes including waiting for the test email. #
• Glad Henry isn't home today, I got all the sushi all to myself. #
• Zero degrees. Is that even a real temperature? #
• Been a good 6th birthday for Bert so far, now we face The Macca's Party. #
• Looks like there's a party at The Ferals tonight. Sigh, #
• Rae is at the footy. Means Frost/Nixon on the telly and half a tub of lemon sorbet for dinner. #iwillmisstheofftywhenitsgone #

• Poor Bert, his first sick day. He still has all manner of stuff oozing from his eye. #
• I have never heard Alro Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant before. Dear god it's funny. Thanks @bbcchrishawkins #
• Looks like another day off school and a trip to the doctor for Bert tomorrow. #
• My dealer popped by last night, happy boy now. There's a jar full of Oddfellows on my desk. #

• Can't. Stop. Eating. Cheese. #
• Bye bye King Tutt. http://t.co/Kv94qUS #

• Can't this football season just be over already… #

• Tonight it will be Close Encounters on BluRay. But which one? The theatrical release, the re-release or directors cut #firstworldgeekproblem #
• Bugger, so much for Close Encounter tonight. Emergency work must be done. Sigh. #
• A bit of Wishing Chair magic and everyone is in a much calmer mood. Now if I can get this design brief done I may yet get to watch a movie. #

• Beyond excited. Tonight I get to see Pulp live. I've waited a long time to say that. #
• There is a good, his name is Jarvis Cocker @pulp2011 #
• Home now but still buzzing. What a band, what a man, what a show. Every song you wanted and then even more. #
• Sunday pancakes. "Bonus pancake day!" yells Bert. #
• Where's the best (ie cheapest) site to order Bluray discs? #
• Just out nerded myself explaining the different versions of Blade Runner to Rae. #
