09:58 @Kailen Yes, I watched the series when it was first broadcast. #

10:37 Tree massacre on campus today. Hopefully the ensuing homeless squirrels will have time to build new nests before nightfall. #

13:15 Down with pants!!! #

14:10 @ScribblerRigby The tree on the quad with the squirrel box in it is coming down. It's the one directly down the sidewalk from CdC east door #

17:07 @ashleythevegan They claimed that the tree was diseased but I don't buy it. #

18:08 Up with skirts!! #

18:39 Stories As Told From a Bed feat. Barbara Berlovitz today through Sunday at Bedlam Theatre. #

14:01 Anyone else think that the opening chords of "The Wall" should play whenever you put a door's key into its lock? #

21:17 @craigvanders Damn! Now I don't feel so bad for scheduling 4 theater shoots in 3 days. I kept my shot count reasonable too. #

00:12 Happy birthday @cwethern ! #

10:28 @stateofthearts I love this website! Now I no longer have to use Community Shares as my agent for arts donations. #

10:33 Donate to Bedlam Theatre today at givemn.org! twurl.nl/yvsq8n Any amount helps. Be sure to watch Bueche's video on the site. #

11:32 @kill_the_wabbit The match is down to about 0.14 on the dollar and sinking quickly. #

13:54 Interesting tactic change: now getting email from theaters encouraging $10 donations on #giveMN in order to get the bonus $$ for most donors #

18:04 RT @FakeAPStylebook: Use "faith-based," as "nuts" or "probably dangerous" may be seen as disrespectful. #

22:32 @Bekette That's better than making a phone call while you're on the can. #

22:33 @easierbeingreen I love that place! I'm so glad there's one right down the block from me on Arcade. Their huaraches are awesome. #

22:45 The #GiveMN match is now down to 4.7c on the dollar. #

19:12 twitpic.com/pp8ok - I have no clue what this is. It's merely labeled "Cambodian dessert ." #

21:42 @sillycecelia Yes, that's what it was. The fruit was unidentifiable though. It was not mango. #

12:02 @sillycecelia That happens to me whenever I go into Patina. They often have excellent squirrel knick-knacks. #

14:33 Windows 7 upgrade was amazingly easy. My system runs faster than under Vista too. #

00:13 My cats are acting like they're on some sort of stakeout. I wonder if there's a mouse in here again. #

 You've got to be kidding me
As if giving up a kidney isn't enough, I have to arrive at the hospital at 5:30AM on the day of the surgery. 5 fucking 30. This means that I'll have to wake up around 4:30. I usually go to sleep around 2. Yeah, that's so not happening. I'll have to force myself to go to bed by like 8pm or so. I won't get to visit with my rodents that morning since they'll all be asleep. I suppose I should just go in and wake them anyway. I'll miss them on the day before surgery since I have to be at the hospital by 7:30am for a day of outpatient testing and I don't want to go an entire week without seeing my critters.

On the plus side, I do not have to take any Super Colon Blow prior to surgery. The doctors have deemed it unnecessary and for that I am quite thankful. I probably will not be allowed to have my phone with me in the hospital but I can bring my laptop. There's no gallery in the operating suite, so my idea of having someone live-Twitter the operation is scratched.

I just called Qwest to upgrade my DSL to 7MB/s. I compared their rate to Comcast's and they're significantly lower. The higher speed should kick in next week. That'll make my streaming Netflix viewing all the better.

Swans Soundtracks for the Blind. Its lush and textural music makes my mind wander into its innermost recesses.

 Cute!
I went to see a show at the Red Eye tonight. In line behind me was an older couple, probably in their 50s. They were bantering playfully with each other and it seemed to me that they had one of those deep connections that's formed from years of shared experiences. They sat near me in the theater. Before the show began, the woman was reading a Reader's Digest and gave her husband a word quiz. I found this rather charming. After the show, I saw the two of them walk hand in hand all the way back to their car. People like them make me smile.

 Squirrelfans
When I was on campus yesterday, I watched as entire family hung out in the quad & fed squirrels. It was cute. The dad was hunkered down with 2 squirrels near him, a little boy was standing next to a tree where a squirrel was on the opposite side, and the mom stood on the sidewalk watching the whole thing. It was a charming sight. The little boy noticed when a herd of squirrels ran toward me and followed them. He didn't get too close to me but if he had, I would have told him to let the squirrels come to him instead of chasing after them.
