• Our cat is back from the vet. Not clear what’s going on but she doesn’t seem too bad right now. Waiting for results from blood + urine tests #
  • If you only watch one #geocaching video today, why not make it this one: http://bit.ly/FIYrQ , the finale of our trip to Gold Country! #
  • So the sick, blood-in-the-urine cat has been running around here like a young kitteh tonight. :eyeroll: I don’t get it. #
  • Hi-ho, hi-ho, it’s off to sweat in bed I go. TMI? 24C is not comfy sleeping temperature. #
  • Network outage at work, eta noonish for repair. Cell, txt, or DM to reach me. #
  • Network connection restored. Hopefully the shakes will stop now. Glad to see I avoided the latest #TwitterPhisher. #
  • Pottery? What kinda weird anniversary theme is that? Happy anniversary @LeftCoastMama #
  • Dear minions: Please branch *before* making changes, not after. It’ll save us both a metric tonne of frustration. #SVN #
  • VIA Rail overwhelmed when offering tickets discounted 60%. Surprise! If you make prices reasonable, maybe CDNs *will* take the train! #duh #
  • Damn. Sidney Crosby parades the Stanley Cup through Cole Harbour on August 7th. We’ll be there 8 days later :( #
  • RT @JohnHenryBikes: Put the rubber to road & actually sign up for an @AC_Cyclebetes cross Canada relay ride NOW. http://bit.ly/jz9xJ #
  • Just signed up for the @AC_Cyclebetes relay from Hope to Vancouver http://bit.ly/jz9xJ Why don’t you join me for the ride? #
  • Vet called with results of tests for our sick 11 yr old cat. Blood-work looks awesome, but blood in the urine. Prob UTI, waiting for culture #
  • /relieved #
  • So with the #twitter makeover, will it now remember me for longer than a one-night stand? #
  • Distracted @ lunch by video of the Airbus 380 landing at Oshkosh – It was a bit of a hard landing. But then found this: http://bit.ly/wpCma #
  • RT @AmberStrocel My summary of how Canadian health care works http://tinyurl.com/n8lkve (@donttrythis will probably be interested in this!) #
  • Vancouver breaks a record: 33C is its hottest day ever. And we’re still climbing. #
  • Think it’s hot here in Vancouver? It’s *37C* (98F) in SEATTLE right now! #
  • Took an alt (less hilly) route home tonight on my bike. Saw more #asshat cyclists than normal. They give the rest of us a bad name. :( #
  • 6am. 23C/74F outside, hotter inside. Both boys up for an hour. Ugh. #
  • What new wonders does my 12892nd day hold in store? #
  • Dumbfounded that there isn’t more backlash on this H00tsuite spam. It has guaranteed that I won’t be using it. #DontSpamMeBro #
  • #hootsuite got even more annoying! Spam all your followers at http://hootsuite.com/upgrade #
  • RT @kabutar: Holy crap, forest fire literally EXPLODING on Blackcomb. It was just a couple trees and 5 mins later a huge plume. #
  • RT @Teddy2kk: @AnthonyFloyd holy crap, you can see the smoke on the Blackcomb webcam – http://bit.ly/3KxU0 #
  • The Blackcomb fire from the peak of Whistler: http://bit.ly/zBXw5 (h/t @Teddy2kk) #

  • Had to build gcc/gfortran from scratch on an obsolete SLES 9 system to support a customer. Took all afternoon to get deps & compile #ImAGeek #
  • RT @illied: @DixonTam Heatwave tip No. 073: Baby wet naps. Not just for babies. [AMEN! There *is* an upside to buying wipes in bulk!] #
  • Seems that the heat wave has killed our Xbox 360 :'( Hopefully it’ll come back to life after it has cooled down a bit. #
  • Nope, Xbox is hooped. Damnit. #RROD #
  • While everyone is up on their high horse about tonight’s #CriticalMass, consider I had 3 drivers nearly run me over on my ride this AM. #
  • If there were *any* traffic enforcement in YVR everyone would be less combative. But then there’d be whiners complaining about speed traps. #
  • RT @Kimli: #criticalmass starting early? Cyclists armed with waterguns shooting anyone in path downtown. [sigh, that’s *great* PR, guys] #
  • Wow, the Burrard St Bridge sees 2-3x the number of cyclists after bike lane introduced! http://bit.ly/nFOEN Vehicle traffic *UNCHANGED* #
  • OK, maybe not 2-3x. 30-40% increase (oops, scanned too fast) #
  • Wow, the Burrard St Bridge sees 30-40% more cyclists after bike lane introduced, vehicle traffic *UNCHANGED* http://bit.ly/nFOEN #
