• Watching 'Out of Sight'; lots of unexpected familiar faces. It's a lot more light and lively than I expected too. #
  • @Candan76 You can't spell microblogging without "blogging". :-) in reply to Candan76 #
  • It was lots of fun! RT @shawntuttle: @Freelancelance Thanks for the social media strategy and pep talk! I'm a new woman, online that is =) #
  • Great episode of "Dexter" this week. Best extremely-dark comedy on TV. #
  • @AmberRainDesign Wow, that's crazy…tough coyote! in reply to AmberRainDesign #
  • Lots of animals crackling around in the woods on tonight's walk. No sightings, but plenty of hearings. #
  • I also figured out a good Halloween costume, in case anyone decides to invite me to a Halloween party. #
  • @markshaw In Die Hard 4, McClane's daughter gets stuck in one, and "rescued" by terrorists. That probably won't happen to you though. ;-) in reply to markshaw #
  • All my mentions disappeared from their Tweetdeck column. As did others' DMs from that column. Hoping it's temporary. #
  • @cyndeZu Well, I see your mention, so at least it's working for new ones. I guess maybe I'll have to go on-site to sift through my backlog. #

  • Folks, my great friend, awesome colleague, and simplification inspiration @shawntuttle is making a serious effort to be more twitterly… #
  • …so if you are trying to simplify your life, or like supporting awesome people, please follow her burgeoning Twitter self @shawntuttle #
  • Shawn puts out a great free newsletter (which I write for & co-edit), writes great blog posts, and is working on a great new book. Great! #
  • I am usually a writer. Today I'm feeling more like just a word thinging person. #
  • I'm always an editor though. That should have been "word-thinging person". ;-) #
  • In honor of #poetrytuesday, I'm posting a poem that I've always kind of liked, but never really wanted to show anyone. It's less than happy. #
  • It's short, it has a swear, and it involves duct tape and misery. If any of that interests you, hold tight… #
  • It's weird–or it's just how writing goes–that one of my favorite, truest poems would be one that I wouldn't want to show anyone. #
  • 8 lines from Summer 2006 … #PoetryTuesday – "Breakthrough" by Lance Brown: http://bit.ly/1Hh7Gv #
  • This is funny…you know how people say "They say…"? This video by Sean Tweedley has the shocking truth about "They": http://bit.ly/1ZtPEx #
  • @MarleeMatlin If you can hear low male voices and like James Taylor and Billy Joel, check out Doug Hoekstra, a little-known folk-rock great. in reply to MarleeMatlin #
  • @caligater Congratulations! (right?) in reply to caligater #
  • RT @AmberRainDesign: they should sell at home polygraph tests so people can see just how much they are lying to themselves… #justsaying #
  • If you're up for 2.5 hours and still aren't sure how you feel, & breakfast has been sitting in front of you for a half hour, #youmightbesick #
  • @MarleeMatlin Have you tried to enlist Roger Ebert in your Netflix campaign? His newfound voicelessness might make him a sympathetic voice. in reply to MarleeMatlin #
  • @MarleeMatlin His blog is very widely read and influential: http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/ #
  • That link to Ebert's blog was a slip, but he does deserve linking, if only for his extremely cool Blogs of My Blog post: http://bit.ly/CNu6H #
  • Roger Ebert's blog is going on my list of example blogs to show newly-blogging clients. He is doing it extremely right. #
  • Jesus, yesterday it was "great", today it's "extremely". Word-brain not doing good for me. #
  • FYI, the other example blogs I use with clients are @whatsnext's http://whatsnextblog.com, and the beautiful http://deliciousdays.com. #
  • Though FWIW, both Ebert and BL Ochman are wrong on health care. Still great bloggers. :-) #
  • @LanceKrall Good question – poop's more of a big picture thing. Whoever suggested you get into the details was misguided at best. in reply to LanceKrall #
  • @AmberRainDesign Yikes…hope it turns out alright. in reply to AmberRainDesign #

  • Watching "Lars and the Real Girl". It's LOLier than I expected. #
  • 'Lars and the Real Girl' – A remarkable & original movie, equally heart-moving & hilarious. Brilliant contributions from everyone involved. #
  • Actually, the one who played Lars's girlfriend was a little stiff. (ba dum bum tsssh) #
  • I don't get how Congress has all this free time to take over health care,but filmmakers are still allowed to release DVDs w/out commentaries #
  • @lynchland You're lucky – all my cat does is close my video programs in mid-play, every time. in reply to lynchland #

  • I wrote a little ditty on that song machine, check it out: http://bit.ly/1tBViA #
  • In line with the theme of my ditty comes this bizarrro NSFW music video/cartoon http://www.getonmyhorse.com/ (via @KimEvey from @feliciaday) #
  • If you start wondering when that video ends…I'm not sure it does. #
  • Benefit #74521 of working at home: NSFW does not apply to you. #
  • @joncassar Yes – rubbing alcohol hurts far worse than any beating or bullet. ;-) in reply to joncassar #
  • @dmataconis I think he's just the new Bill Clinton pretty much. With more toys. in reply to dmataconis #
  • Net Neutrality = People to government: "Want more power?" Government: "Well, now that you mention it…" #giveitaname #
  • That just about wraps up the government's 15-year endeavor to get their paws on every part of the commercial Internet. #
  • OK, I'm not going to say how I know, but "Get on My Horse" either doesn't end, or it's over 45 minutes long. #

  • The 90th issue of The Simplifier is warming up the presses as we speak. (Or would it be "as we tweek"? Somehow that doesn't sound right.) #
  • @levarburton I doubt my childhood self could have ever imagined you would eventually suggest I read "@shitmydadsays". Now that's a rainbow! in reply to levarburton #
  • I'm imagining a very funny parody video right now, of @levarburton doing "@shitmydadsays" on Reading Rainbow. #ff #
  • That should get me a "story by" credit if someone actually does it, right? #
  • @deanhunt Really great show. It wavers a little in in the middle of its run, but then it comes around and brings it all home pretty solidly. in reply to deanhunt #
  • @deanhunt Oops! Nope, I was talking about The Shield, but that's clever marketing on your part…I'll check out your podcast later today.:-) in reply to deanhunt #
