My internet persona was way more awesome in 2006. Unfortunate!

Twit/FB syndication broken approx a week for me. Wondering who are my audiences on each medium? Thinking defeats the benefits of 140 limit.
Verbosity is my natural inclination. Writing a dense tweet has always felt similar to writing a haiku

Really enjoying the 11th Doctor so far. Unsure if that has more b/c of Matt Smith’s portrayal or Steven Moffat’s writing.

Tax season makes me angry. Stupid companies too.
I’m an idiot. Nearly a year in my lease, just noticed there’s a big honking screw to allow easy removal of the shower drain plate.

Someone left a really elaborate, rude, passive aggressive letter on my door step. It’s so childish I shouldn’t care, but I do.
I wish the cake was a lie.
