the search is a little quirky, so being creative helps.
for instance, a search for slumber party night will find ANY ONE of the words, while "slumber party night" (in quotes) will only find the exact phrase and i don't always use the complete phrase and sometimes i abbreviate it to SPN.
so, a search for slumber spn with no quotes should find every post that mentions our little weekly ritual.
just a quick thought here, but it was too long for a tweet.
anyway, I want to be able to select tweets for a group (like the lists feature for people) and then twitter assigns a link to a page with all/only those tweets. for instance, when we went to balloon fiesta – a timeline [...]
So, I opened it last night and set it up. There has been much debate about whether to go ahead and open it or wait until Christmas morning. The final deciding factor is that, much as it seems to surprise people, this is my first REAL espresso machine and I have firmly believed [...]
I’m not positive but nothing has been the same since I installed it.
My phone is a Motorola Moto Q9c from Alltel, which means I just now got switched to Verizon. I don’t know enough about phones and networks to know if that would have anything to do with it.
I installed Microsoft’s MyPhone, which is [...]
see, even though my coffee bar is built around budget equipment so i can’t make perfect espresso, i still make better stuff than most coffee shops… better beans, better water, better ice, and much less sugar… when the main ingredients are good, you don’t have to mask the flavor :)
anyway, i stock a [...]
i used to make this post every year and it’s been awhile since i did but, this year, i have an updated version of it… mainly because i found that the message board the links went to is no longer around, but, the internet archive still has copies…

christopher: after several weeks of changing things, i think i finally have the site the way i want it... incl. the daily lifestream post format...
christopher: oh great!!! the bug has returned that causes my site to randomly revert to the default theme and then it is totally ugly (white page, one sidebar, big blue space at the top) and missing content... i thought i had fixed that forever :( dear reader, if you visit and see it that way, please text/email/whatever me so's i can go fix it...
christopher: ok, here goes yet another chat box...

Just got an excellent cappuccino at Milagro Coffee y Espresso next to university in Las Cruces – possibly best i’ve ever had.

Caveat re: my last tweet, i’ve been to very few cafes in my life.

Just gave the "Stockfleth’s move" a first try and pulled an amazing shot! Smooth, thick, sweet. May have been luck. (19g 1.5oz ~27secs)
|
|
|
Too bad i’m just about out of beans or I’d pull three in a row to see what happens. The WDT hasn’t gotten me these results.

@don_rivers I have used a few over the years but once I tried Feedly, I haven’t looked back. It’s web-based (?!).
|
|
|
@don_rivers however, if you want full media, too, look no further than Ziepod. And the paid version is well worth it.

I have just seen my first Lady Gaga video. Um. Amazing cinematography and production design, that much is certain. No further comment.

@dailydemitasse I agree with the sugar, but I see a proper ratio of milk kinda’ the same as water with scotch – to reveal certain subtleties
|
|
|
@dailydemitasse BUT most every nuance of the coffee is quenched by any higher than say 1:3 — and I prefer no higher than 1:2 or less.
|
|
|
@dailydemitasse oops! Obviously, those ratios were meant for espresso. (Though I do add a bit of cream (not milk) to press coffee.)

finished reading The City of Ember. meh. color-by-numbers, adding nothing to the genre. makes me want to re-read Bova’s Exiles trilogy.

Listening to The City of Ember – knew a title and that’s it. Didn’t know it is a kids’ book. But, it’s interesting enough so far. (Ch6of20)

I guess i’d better find net radio equivalents – could listen to my public radio station in Dallas – KERA. They dont play classical though.
|
|
|
And net radio has no one talking :( Stuck in a house all day with no one to talk to, day after day – even a DJ is a welcome voice!

@1prdpgn I added your cam to a desktop webcam widget :) I have 3 – one shows only local cams, another shows abq cams, all others in 3rd.
|
|
|
@1prdpgn I have been a total webcam junkie for years :P I complain at least once a week that I miss MY webcam.
|
|

@don_rivers ha! you’re right, they stream – i never would have guessed a little station like them would. well, that changes everything :)

thanks to @don_rivers for pointing out that KRWG (Las Cruces public radio (incl. NPR and PRI)) streams! http://www.krwg.org/live.html

Internet radio is awesome but no substitute for local info – radio is only the first part of my day, net radio fills the rest.

Making Americanos in the new cups @nurseterra’s parents sent us. I SO needed 4oz cups and they just show up at our door! thanks, y’all :)

@1prdpgn remember jennicam well, but more by reputation, don’t think I watched it much – wasn’t into cams yet back then.

Ya know, there’s just no such thing as a total day off – like complete absence of responsibilities. Might as well wish for a month off.
|
|
|
Welp, everyone is taking a nap. Soooo, I think it’s psp, headphones, podcasts (or maybe audiobook) and make dinner time.
|

@1prdpgn right on! I had a living room cam back home for a long time and loved it. Alas, can’t do that here. Have considered a bar cam tho
