H-Bird’s Weekly Twitter-Spatter

In which I play with — and then delete — my @brightkite account, and uphold my reputation as a Crazy Dog Lady.

• Big day at the dog show. Norwich Terriers winning left, right and centre. I should have run a book. #
• Trying to persuade Evie that even if she wants to be a lapdog, that doesn't mean she can sit on the laptop. #
• I'm at Main South Rd, -43.535928 172.560242 – http://bkite.com/2sbsd #
• Main South Rd – Main South Rd – Sockburn – It's nom time in the land of dog dinners: a frenzy followed by eery qu… http://bkite.com/2sbss #
• Now I can enjoy my coming 35th b-day free of tacky reification. RT @grabaseat: our grabaseat Cougar contest closes midnight tonight. [...] #
• Finished Season 3 of Mad Men with @knedd last night, aware that yelling at Betty Draper has become a disproportionate part of my recreation. #
• RT @sockington: I HAVE SOME CREAM #
• Though not visible under clothes, the passenger-bump is now substantial enough not to fit under my desk. I may soon need to type on a tray. #
• 20 Kirkwood Avenue – Ilam – It's the caffeination hour at work, when I face up to the tasks that need to be compl… http://bkite.com/2ss94 #
• 20 Kirkwood Avenue – Ilam – When I learned to type, I did not envisage a life as Queen of Work Email. – http://bkite.com/2str3 #
• 20 Kirkwood Avenue – Ilam – Enough is probably enough. Time to hie me to Sockburn, land of dogs. – http://bkite.com/2sung #
• The whimsical "near-enough" check-in locations on @Brightkite have sent me back to it. You can find me here — almost! #
• More on how is babby formed: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/1/18/ #
• Main South Rd – Sockburn – Now that I'm settled in, why not ask me anything: http://www.formspring.me/harvestbird – http://bkite.com/2svxg #
• Putting formspring link up at @brightkite not best idea. Have deleted account due to anon qns trying to guess where I live. #mymistake #
• Rock of Love Bus on MTV; I never get tired of the line "I've never even been engaged!" as marked of social failure. #
• Attempts at a second blog post this evening thwarted by my version of wordpress playing up — and my accidentally deleting a draft. Feh. #
• Gosh: http://bit.ly/5mXB0o JAL is the employer of a number of my former students. #
• Today's earworm: Verlaine Verlaine Verlaine Verlaine Verlaine Verlaine Verlaine Verlaaaaaaine (http://bit.ly/7TeCCX) #
• RT @FakeAPStylebook: Use standard abbreviations for foreign money: [...] AUD for Australian dollars, CBP for Canadian beaver pelts, etc. #
• Cobby Little Ratting Terriers: my dogs at Christmas (if you haven't seen the Facebook pic). http://flic.kr/p/7×3BPj #
• I think I'll have to read this: http://bit.ly/4MS6IM. @robyngallagher, maybe it will appeal to you too? #
• We were warned about this by @Homage, but it doesn't make it any less scary: http://bit.ly/7d7p6l #
• Kate McGarrigle has died: http://bit.ly/7JuN07 #
• Took my bitches for a scan. None in the oven for Evie but Fern has four fetal whelps (aka puppies) including one wee on-screen backflipper. #
• http://twitpic.com/z61ro – Both of us are in pup but only one (touch wood) is having four. #
• Dog/human pregnancy equivalence: 1 dog week = 1 human month. Fern currently 5 weeks 3 days. She has some low-riding saddle bags. #
• Is your inquiring mind at leisure? Why not ask something of your friendly h-bird? http://bit.ly/7sRZoE #
• I need to finish clearing out the spare room. As a result I've procrastinated my way through many loads of washing & filled the dishwasher. #
• Two new posts today: Kei Hea Te Pene? http://bit.ly/5E8ovL and Summer Husbandry http://bit.ly/5Eb3V7. #
• Clearing up in the spare room took fewer than 30 minutes; a waste of good procrastination! #
• Went to Drexels for breakfast with the @knedd. Excellent food for the pregnant woman whose appetite is currently like a shearer's. #
• The passenger demands continuous fruit, vegetables and protein. You'd think it was a mammal of some kind and not a magical robot-unicorn. #
• Fush and Chip Crane has Landed: this photo from @wellykowhai's stream I like perhaps inordinately. http://flic.kr/p/7xL1B1 #
• I have a dead arm and @knedd has a three-weeks' fractured toe. Both these injuries were sustained from walking, sober, around the house. #
