• Tried to walk w/baby to coffeshop. Only made it to the park. Recovery from childbirth is slow. But at least I’m not F-ing pregnant anymore! #
• WryBaby makes hilarious kid stuff! Sad to see idiotic gender stereotypes on their site: http://bit.ly/b6ZTq #
• It seems like FriendFeed is what Twitter ought to be (friend lists, threaded comments, images, etc.). Wish we could all move there. #
• @yancyscot FriendFeed is no extra effort, it just sucks in the stuff you’re already doing on other sites. in reply to yancyscot #
• Only 2 women out of 32 recommended feeds, @FriendFeed? Really? Is it just me? http://www.flickr.com/photos/rubyji/3543539990/ #

• Last night @IzzySinreich set a personal record, waking me up to feed no less than 5 times, & topped it off w/ some diaper antics this AM. #
• The tasks “feature” they’ve added to @Google Calendar are so badly done that they are literally worse than nothing. Stick w/ @RTM. #
• @tbeckett Yes we do, but have some logistical challenges. #
• Spent the morning researching how to deal w/ sleep deprivation http://is.gd/ALHp (between feedings, natch). #
• Trying catch up on e-mail from the immediate post-partum period. There is a lot of it. #
• ! @TrixieTracker Love your new non-grapic submit buttons – a small change that will make my life a lot easier! #Usability FTW. #
• ! @fem2pt0 Yr twitter event always starts when I’m going to bed (or exhausted). I guess that illustrates yr feminist/mommy divide. #
• @minorjive The @trixietracker isn’t public, just web based. Needs an SMS interface, tho. #

• ! @LauraLeslie Touché. Thanks for the live news from the N.C. General Assembly & the sense of humor. #
• Good thing Twitter made that change to @replies to improve performance, huh? #fixreplies #twitterfail #
• Amen! Rtwt @rootwork: Email appeals that have no web version make Tweets about them impossible. #nptech #
• Jut tried to plug a Twitter feed into Feedburner (which has now been swallowed by Teh Goog), but it didn’t validate. 🙁 C’mon, Twitter! #
• I’m sure some of you will appreciate this. Rtwt @wootoff: $1.49 : Bacon Salt http://www.woot.com #
• ! @trixietracker It’s times like this (signal is crappy & Treo browser barfs) that I really wish you’d take commands via txt or tweet. #

• @coxn B/c I retweeted it. If I replied to him, you wouldn’t see that. It depends on whether tweet starts w/ “@” character. in reply to coxn #
• Ah quiet. I hope it’s because my son has calmed down and fallen asleep, and not because my husband had to take him outside… #
• Getting extremely anxious about this “almost done” web site that is not really close to done at all. This is a very Bad Thing. #
• @amazonmp3 Can I vote against both of them? #

• Rtwt @PPCNC: N.C. bill to study licensing midwifes to provide homebirths passes, serial ref means it’s probably dead. #

• Obama’s brilliant and funny speech @ Saturday’s Whitehouse Correspondents’ dinner: http://is.gd/yRv8. Cleverest Preznit Evar? #
• Interesting: Obama says watchdog media makes government better, I say watchdog blogs make media better. Where are the props for grassroots? #
• @natthedem I live in a happy land devoid of criticism of Wanda Sykes. (I <3 Biggie Shorty!) Who is stupid enough to hassle her? in reply to natthedem #
• A day late, but here’s my mommy’s-eye-view from Mother’s Day: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rubyji/3522603216/ #babywearing #
• Rtwt @LamaSuryaDas: Love and accept yourself, and the world will embrace you. #

• @tarekrizk @Mychal_Smith @kanter @midcenturysal @amyrsward Thanks for the Mothers Day wishes! I hope the moms among you enjoyed it as well. in reply to tarekrizk #
• OK, starting to work part time this week (besides the never-ending work of mothering). Very hard to get my head back into it! #focus #
• Rtwt @tubafrenzy: Nothing says “2009” like this pic of the Heels presenting Obama with a #1 jersey: http://is.gd/yVIn What a diff a yr makes #
• Hey folks, what’s your favorite tool for automatically following your followers on Twitter? #
• @johnmerritt In some cases. I manage an organizational account and don’t have time to check out each new follower, but want to follow back. in reply to johnmerritt #
• @findingurstyle I agree, but can’t get colleagues to deal with Twitter. This is the only way to share the love with followers. in reply to findingurstyle #
• OK, I’m convinced. I won’t use auto-follow for my org. I can see how it facilitates spam and such. Wish Twitter would make this easier, tho. #
• @hughlh No, auto-DMing followers is the devil. Auto-follow is just lazy, IMO. in reply to hughlh #
• Very nice to see @ayse & @davidb this evening. Now trying to get myself psyched up for Izzy’s first tub bath. :-O #
• Looking for a Twitter name for Izzy. I think accounts without at least 1 tweet per month for 6 months should be deleted. Lame squatters… #
• @ayse Fortunately we did (just barely) think to take pictures of @IzzySinreich’s (temp Twitter name) first bath. Will post soon… in reply to ayse #
• @Ayse Do I just tweet @Twitter about the squatter? #

• It’s my first Mother’s Day! (Thx, @BrianR.) And thx to @emeritbadges for the gift of a good night’s sleep – what every mom wants. #
• My son is the best Mother’s Day present I can imagine. <3 But presents & surprises are nice too, especially involving alcohol &/or massages. #
• @msfour Cool. Another happy Mother’s Day to you! in reply to msfour #
• I have decreed that on this day no moms should ever worry about their hair or make-up (unless they feel like it). #mothersday #
• I think all women should get to make a new rule on their first Mother’s day. 🙂 #
• @ayse Definitely, let’s rock that rule every day in honor of all moms. in reply to ayse #
• I have started what I hope will be a new tradition: Margaritas for Mother’s Day. 🙂 #
