Done working for the day. It’s time to go out an enjoy what’s left of the nice weather.

Really enjoying Whitney (http://tinyurl.com/635w7b)

@Cfling I know! Ridiculous.

Damnit! (http://twitter.com/dkr/statuses/904745120)

About ready to end the laziest day I’ve had in years.

Enjoying a chill night in.

Was having trouble focusing so I cleaned my toaster. Maybe it’s a little unorthodox but it’s seemed to help.

Watching the clouds fly by outside my office window and wishing I was out there.

Boy redoing that entire document for a client all day sure was fun. Thanks burglars.

@Cfling Thanks, yeah, we’re all just going through receipts, filling out reports, etc. You’re right, it’s totally lame.

@meyerweb, @greghoy, @garrettdimon and everyone thanks for the well wishes. We’re just trying to deal with all the logistics now.

Yes, the Blue Flavor office got broken into for the second time in two months even with our new security system. Yeah, we’re all pissed.

@dkr Damnit!

@mrwarren Of course you do.

Prepping for my fantasy football draft.

Was just shot in the back by a co-worker. Luckily it was only Nerf powered.

Is seriously reconsidering my D700 purchase. HD movies on a SLR! http://tinyurl.com/578t8l

@mrwarren Happy birthday sir!

Going for a run, something I haven’t done in far, far too long. Seattle, please don’t rain on me as punishment.

This site structure is filled with lube.

@smadden Kevin Duckworth! Sniff. I still remember meeting him for the first time. That guy was huge!

You’d think all these flies would have scared off this giant line of people at my favorite teriyaki place. Then again, I’m here…

@hoyboy I had no idea you had a secret love for packing peanuts!

Dear Apple, please upgrade your displays. Did you not see the 147m x 22m LED display unrolling during the olympic opening ceremonies?

@nickf Ha! Only if @jcroft gets the matching one!

It’s been just dumping rain here in Seattle for the last few hours. I’m staying in and flipping through photos of sunny yesterday.

@kennym Happy Birthday, big pun!

Just bought a wireless keyboard and laptop stand for some more ergonomic working from home Fridays.

Coworkers in angst (http://www.flickr.com/photos/twatson/tags/coworkerangst/)

sipping on english breakfast tea in the afternoon for the final Friday afternoon push.

One blade? Three blades? Five blades? Seven blades? Really, it’s all about the *new* blade when you shave.

@mattmay Oh, I’ve already started saving for D700. I mean look at this http://tinyurl.com/6lx8c7

The nerf darts whizzing by my head aren’t helping me focus.

Making a list to try and corral my scattered brain.

drinking some green tea from my “Kuzumaki mug” on this dark, grey late August morning. Damn you Seattle.

Enjoying @brownthings Refresh talk about freelance.

Seriously, almost 5 p.m. already? Dude.

@dkr Exactly. It’s like when you’re teaching someone how to shoot a basketball. It’s all about the follow through.

@cowpiesurprise I’m currently debating if I should have that screech be my new alarm. Nope. But, well done sir!

@dkr Thanks man! I’m getting excited for it too!

Client meeting went great! Whew!

@laurengrant Ha! You’re welcome?

Loving EveryBlock but I’m not sure I wanted to know this. (http://tinyurl.com/5wj29j)

@jcroft We? Don’t you live in Missouri?

Everyblock comes to Seattle! (http://seattle.everyblock.com/)

@camflan I think @sketch22 is rolling them out slowly. I’m not sure if everyone has them yet.

I’ve got a few @readernaut invites. Direct message me your email and I’ll send you one.

The perfect end to a long day hiking? The taco truck.

Back from a great day hiking Mt. Pilchuck.

Heading out for drinks and then dinner at Wild Ginger with some old high school friends.

“As I grow to understand life less and less, I learn to love it more and more” - Jules Renard

Picnic lunch at Gasworks complete with sailboats, kites and float planes.

Love how much work I got done in a quite office by myself. Too bad it’s a Saturday.

I know it’s only $2.00 but that Brown Bear countdown timer freaks me out.

Just washed my new car.

Created my first alias in my .bash_profile. My nerd credibility has just gone up half a point.

New hiking pack acquired, and I’m currently debating where to go test it out this weekend.

Just got my copy of Live at KEXP vol. 4!

@sushimonster Happy Birthday!

@halseyhoff Yep. I need to print it and post it somewhere to keep reminding myself.

Working smarter not harder. I seem to forget that rule sometimes.

And I ended up with YBU for my plates. Three letters and three words! It’s like they knew I was a type geek.

Going to pick up my license plates for my new ride, and hoping for a good number/letter combination.

@comcastcares I just had a great experience with your customer care support, which is the first time that’s ever happened. Well done.

@allgood2 Thanks! I figured I should start highlighting my photos a bit more.

Hey Twitter. Yes, I’m still here. We’ll hang out again soon, I promise.

just passed @magnetbox chilling in the back of the Microsoft Connector. He too had that grey Monday morning look on his face.

@simplebits Well, I wear 3/4 length sleeves almost every day, just not by choice!

Sipping green tea from my Carpe Diem mug and getting ready to do just that.

Relaxing and watching some Olympics before another busy week at work.

Just wasted 2 hours on a “bug” that was, yep, a typo.

Just went through “that box” and now I don’t feel so good. I’m glad I finally went through it though.

Had a great brunch and ran a few errands with @mikeindustries and Chelan.

New plants for my apartment purchased. Although I think my eyes were a bit bigger than my pots. Might have to go pot shopping tomorrow.

Watching some pre-season Seahawks

Oh, that’s right it’s 08/08/08!

Looking forward to watching the opening ceremonies tonight. Well, okay, having it on while working.

@ticjones called my desktop background “slightly pornographic”. It’s this photo (http://www.flickr.com/photos/dotsara/1259082677/).

Still excited about my new car http://www.flickr.com/photos/twatson/sets/72157606588805327/ I just used the remote key from my window. Heh.

@kennym Sweet interior!

@joshbloom Ha ha ha! I got nothing. Awesome.

@WanderingMatt Thanks Matt! I’m quite smitten.

And finally a few photos of my new car (http://www.flickr.com/photos/twatson/sets/72157606588805327/)

I don’t know if my brain can handle Brett Favre as a Jet.

@dglazier I got a black one.

Listening to the sound of a fiddle float through my open window from the farmer’s market below my apartment.

@WanderingMatt Anytime! You just have to come over to the west side!

@weskimcom, @jcroft ha ha ha. Jeff you couldn’t hear me in Kansas?

New car (Volvo C30) purchased! Pictures soon!

Client meeting went well. Now on to sell my car.

Summoning my inner Don Draper for a big client meeting this afternoon. Anyone want to grab a martini lunch? I know I could use one.

Anyone else using the delicious API and having problems?

@chipd A little. My Dad’s a cougar. Being from Oregon I’m united in hating UW though. It’s tough living blocks from “the U”. Blegh.

Gearing up for a busy, busy day today. At this point it’s either going to be awesome, or end up horrible. Who needs boring? Fingers crossed!

and I’m now paginating and filtering my stream too http://tincorporated.com/stream/. Thanks @jcroft!

Been running around all night getting ready to sell my car tomorrow and buy a new one.

Is so annoyed that I just used “touch base” in a client email. Going to go write “I will not use touch base” on the whiteboard 50 times now.

@shauninman I know, I know, it’s on the list! Hopefully they’ll get to it next year!

There’s something soothing about Al Michaels and John Madden on TV in the background. I’ve missed you guys.

S’mores on Lake Union!

Brunch at 5 Spot, Theo Chocolate tour, walk around Green Lake and BluWater happy hour. It’s been a great day already.

Finally turned on MobileMe syncing on my iPhone. So far, so good, but I’m a little annoyed there wasn’t a prompt in iTunes when I upgraded.

Time for some more Mad Men.

Is bringing Vanilla Ice back.

Looking over the work I did for the new http://sxsw.com/. They haven’t implemented everything we suggested but it’s looking good!

Just spent some time kicking the tires of @readernaut and am really impressed. Well done @sketch22.
