Finally broke down and bought an ipod touch 32gb model. Very nice. Who needs a blackberry anymore? Like keyboard much better. #
Listening to the Cars debut album for the first time in a long while. So many awesome memories from my youth tied to it… #nostalgic #
Liking #Tweetie so far, but would like to set update interval myself and save searches. Also, read vs. unread a little hard to distinguish. #
Just discovered another #Tweetie want – post tweet by hitting either “return” or “enter” key. I hate clicking buttons to trigger an action. #
Umm. Scratch that… Cmd + Return posts the tweet – for those who are clueless like me… #
Helpful article w/ T-SQL query to break apart delimited values in single column in MS SQL. http://tinyurl.com/c2r9nq Old, but very useful. #
Just converted part of an FM6 project to v10. Grateful for chance to trim the fat. Man, I did some lame stuff in my early #FileMaker days. #
#Tweetie for Mac: Possible bug? Mark a favorite tweet, quit, relaunch. Favorite no longer marked. Though fave is saved on twitter.com. #
Dear co-worker… Just because I’m a Mac guy, it doesn’t make me your personal help-desk for issues your spouse is having with their Mac. #
Just spent the evening rewiring all the cables in my office. Oddly enough, I found it very relaxing. Headache now gone. #
First weekend in months not playing a gig. So nice to be able to simply relax with the family for a change. Forgot how important it is. #

Spent the last day and a half getting aquatinted with VBS. Have come to the conclusion that I still like AppleScript better… #

I bought the @MacHeist 3 Bundle. 12 Top Mac apps worth $900+ for just $39 AND I just got Delicious Library 2 FREE! http://mhtweet.com/I0ElHe #
FedEx delivered my FTS 10 pkg. Hopefully disc survived shipping. FTS 9 disc broke in half last time. Got free replacement though (2 books). #
Federal and State taxes complete. Came out $300 ahead of my original estimates. Stress level 16 hours ago: 97%. Stress level now: 2% #

Done coding for the night. Time to vedge on bad TV. #
Spring can officially start. Cleaned BBQ, grilling first burgers of the year. Mmmm. Meat. #
Setting up FM Server 10 development machine, then final touches on client project for UAT tomorrow. #
Just finished the most awesome breakfast burrito from Nick’s Deli in Seal Beach, CA. Yum. I can take anything the world throws at me now… #
Just got the green light to convert part of a legacy #FileMaker 6 project to v10! Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy! #
#FileMaker Server Adv w/ ODBC… Able to edit data directly in live MS SQL tables! Life just got a magnitude of order easier! Tears of joy. #
