• My main gripe with the new #Facebook is that it doesn’t work. Things don’t render properly, I can’t access my apps menu, forms don’t send… #
• @linuxjournal Ping! I would love a subscription to LJ. in reply to linuxjournal #
• @linuxjournal Oh and what’s a “digital subscription?” in reply to linuxjournal #
• So glad I work at home where no-one will bother me about wearing green. I don’t observe Irish holidays any more than I do Christian ones. #
• @msfour I know where it is. It’s been there for months. It doesn’t work anymore. #facebook #fail in reply to msfour #
• Hope el jefe likes Eno. Playing Music for Airports at my pelvis while propping my torso at an angle my stomach hates. Heels up, baby! #

• Is there anyway to get #Firebug to leave certain domains alone? I think it’s messing with some essential web-based services for me… #
• @karitas Thanks, but disabling the console isn’t helping. I think I need to disable #Firebug completely. (If it is the culprit.) in reply to karitas #
• @tracyrusso Does there have to be a meme every year? Each person takes away new info, relationships, insights, etc. #sxsw in reply to tracyrusso #
• Sorry for blaming #Firebug, I disabled the add-on and I still can’t get #Facebook or #GoogleCal to behave properly. eg: http://is.gd/nL9G #
• About to have acupuncture for the first time ever! #

• #UNC up by ONE POINT with one minute left!!! #acc #basketball. #
• Yeah. So UNC lost 70 – 73. It’s obv @waynesutton’s fault for not paying attn to the game. Nothing to do with Ty Lawson sitting out. #acc #ba #

• @msfour So selfish, Ms Tarheel. How could you do this to us! 😉 in reply to msfour #
• @johnjoseph Excellent idea! I had been thinking of making a t-shirt w/ lines, but I’d only have 2 more weeks to wear it. Digital is better. in reply to johnjoseph #

• Was told today that awful vendor has now spent 90% of the budget on fucking around, meanwhile critical features are incomplete. #FAIL #
• I really wasted my organization’s time & money by choosing this vendor. I could have built the site better myself. Now there’s no time. #
• Also, #dreamhost #megafail for our free NP webspace that can’t even manage to run #drupal without dying at least once a day. I give up. #
