Statuses for March, 2009

Stalk me. Relentlessly.

00 March 31st, 2009

Running to a bar, for a beer. I might be doing this wrong, but I don’t care.

00 March 31st, 2009

Congratulations @stop on the move to @twitter!

00 March 31st, 2009

I haven’t thought about @37signals in years. I guess that was the main point of their blog post.

00 March 31st, 2009

A bit more on 97 Bottles mobile from @ktamura http://tinyurl.com/derbhc

00 March 31st, 2009

Finally got around to designing my photography sets on T Inc. http://tincorporated.com/library/sets/

00 March 30th, 2009

I have a plant on my desk now. Life is better.

00 March 30th, 2009

Figures. I didn’t give this pair of shoes a proper trial and have already recycled the box. Hello clown shoes.

00 March 29th, 2009

@danrubin See future tweet: Just got back from a great run.

00 March 29th, 2009

Waiting in line for some maple walnut and chocolate mandarin sorbet at Molly Moon’s. The smell of waffle cones are irresistable.

00 March 29th, 2009

Taking polaroids of “Henry” all around Seattle with @dotsara. Finally had a film pack go bad on me. I was due but still annoyed.

00 March 29th, 2009

Laughed all the way through “I Love You, Man”. Highly recommended.

00 March 28th, 2009

@danrubin Nice! I’ll definitely check out a few of those. I’ve been creating my own for a while now, but these look like a lot of fun.

00 March 28th, 2009

Happy with the rolls, but not the fact that all these photos make me want to shoot more film. My pocket book is wincing.

00 March 28th, 2009

Going through some film that I took over the past month. Fingers crossed!

00 March 28th, 2009

There’s something strange about going to by a cactus when it’s pouring down rain.

00 March 28th, 2009

Just watched the premier episode of DTown TV and am sold. http://www.dtowntv.com/ A little cheesy, but great tips for Nikon DSLR users.

00 March 27th, 2009

@Brilliantcrank done. DM me your address and I’ll send you the hot pink rabbit foot @jcroft picked out for you.

00 March 27th, 2009

@Brilliantcrank don’t worry we’ll save you some pizza.

00 March 27th, 2009

Enjoying some basketball with @jcroft, @dotsara and Jodie.

00 March 25th, 2009

Thanks again to everyone who has given suggestions for Level & Tap! http://bitly.com/gE6k4 Reminder: the contest ends tomorrow at midnight.

00 March 25th, 2009

Alfred made a leap for freedom during his bowl cleaning. He’s okay, we discussed it, and thankfully he’s not planning anymore shenanigans.

00 March 24th, 2009

OJ, couch, 30 Rock. These things will make me feel better.

00 March 24th, 2009

Airborne, water, smoothies, alcohol to “flush the system” none of them prevented the SXSW sickness from finally catching me. Dammit.

00 March 24th, 2009

@davemerwin Thanks!

00 March 24th, 2009

Blue Flavor just posted a case study http://bitly.com/cp5NQ about some work I was part of doing http://bitly.com/174xW0.

@whafro Thanks man! @keithmuth No problem!

00 March 23rd, 2009
00 March 23rd, 2009

@bryanveloso Yes! Finally!

00 March 23rd, 2009

@nathanborror That is incredibly good news. What do I have to do to get it?!?

00 March 23rd, 2009

Listening to The Thermals and thinking about sun, Austin and way too much alcohol.

00 March 23rd, 2009

Alfred missed me. He jumped up and tapped my finger when I was feeding him. Fish pound!

00 March 23rd, 2009

Oh Seattle, it’s like you knew I needed a little sun this morning to ease back into your 3 more months of grey spring. Thank you.

00 March 22nd, 2009

@jcroft Oregon always wins. *grin*

00 March 22nd, 2009

@ktamura Happy birthday!

00 March 22nd, 2009

@five98 Well thank you sir! Maybe next time!

00 March 22nd, 2009

It’s good to be home.

00 March 22nd, 2009

Food in Houston and then on to Seattle. Really looking forward to getting home.

00 March 22nd, 2009

Soft water, sandpaper towels and Gestapo housekeeping, until next year Hampton Inn… Seriously though, Austin, you kicked ass.

00 March 21st, 2009

Sitting on the Hampton balcony after yet another great day of sun and shows. Making it an early night tonight for an early flight tomorrow.

00 March 21st, 2009

Just took a photo of a big Obey wall installation and the guy gave me a huge pile of stickers. Awesome.

00 March 21st, 2009

Chilling at Home Slice Pizza listening to The Love Language.

00 March 20th, 2009

Held Steady but damn The Thermals are awesome.

00 March 20th, 2009

Chilling at the Hampton pool and then off to see American Analog Set, The Thermals and The Hold Steady. Rough life, I know.

00 March 20th, 2009

Do the more conservative states use the urinal dividers and the more liberal ones just go with the “look if you want to buddy” philosophy?

00 March 19th, 2009

Andrew Bird and Fritos.

00 March 19th, 2009

Listening to Gomez play Airstream Driver and can’t help but think of @greghoyboy.

00 March 19th, 2009

Damn The Black Joe Lewis was good.

00 March 19th, 2009

Chilling at the park, enjoying a beautiful afternoon in the sun.

00 March 19th, 2009

Up, feeling much more human after a SXSW break and looking for some food and bands to see later.

00 March 18th, 2009

Chilling on the Hampton balcony waiting to meet some Austin friends for dinner.

00 March 18th, 2009

Mellow walk around the Texas capitol building complete with plenty of twangs and y’alls.

00 March 17th, 2009

Really enjoyed Objectified, but I liked Helvetica a bit better.

00 March 17th, 2009

In line waiting to see Objectified with @mikeindustries.

00 March 16th, 2009

I always feel awkward at this point with our party. I just want all my friends to get in.

00 March 16th, 2009

At Juan in a Million with @markhuot and @iamjolly eating some delicious salsa and quicky turning that color.

00 March 16th, 2009

Learning enough to be dangerous.

00 March 15th, 2009

At the Winnebago Man opening checking out Grant Hamilton’s gallery.

00 March 15th, 2009

Having dinner at Iron Cactus with @magnetbox, @lonelysandwich, @hotdogsladies and many others.

00 March 13th, 2009

00 March 13th, 2009

@greghoyboy yeah, that’s me. All my computer stuff is named after the West Wing.

00 March 12th, 2009

Unpacked and at the Hampton. I need food, but I’m thinking I might just go straight to Buffalo Billiards.

00 March 12th, 2009

Catching up with @ryanmcminn in the Houston airport.

00 March 12th, 2009

After five “woahs”, three people asking “Do you play basketball?” and one bug eyed toddler, I’m in Houston.

00 March 12th, 2009

@ivanivanivan On TV.

00 March 12th, 2009

Just saw a second grader on CNN explain Twitter better than I can.

00 March 12th, 2009

Well, whatever it was, it didn’t take long. On to Austin!

00 March 12th, 2009

I have no idea what “code bravo” means but this can’t be good for me getting through security.

00 March 12th, 2009

Bags are packed. Now I’m just savoring the sun on this beautiful Seattle morning. Apparently Austin isn’t providing much this year.

00 March 11th, 2009

@ktamura Nuun. Whatever you do, don’t forget the Nuun.

00 March 11th, 2009

At the Elysian with my neighbors for a beer before the madness.

00 March 11th, 2009

@geekgiant I fly out tomorrow at 11:20. Continental.

00 March 11th, 2009

Running around doing a few errands and taking care of all the last minute things before my flight to Austin tomorrow.

00 March 11th, 2009

@jimray Happy birthday sir!

00 March 9th, 2009

Trying, very, very hard to unplug for the evening.

00 March 9th, 2009

It’s official, 97 Bottles http://97bottles.com is live and open to the public! Get yer drinking shoes on!

00 March 9th, 2009

@brownthings Thanks man! It just feels great to have it finished!

00 March 9th, 2009

@gravesit Thanks, but yeah, it feels so good just to have it done.

00 March 9th, 2009

After years of saying, “I’ll get around to it”, I finally just spent a day and did it. My portfolio is finally up http://bitly.com/NxqOE

00 March 8th, 2009

Scored a goal, won the soccer game, but Jodie got injured. No jubilation tonight.

00 March 8th, 2009

After a morning/early afternoon of working on my portfolio the suns finally out. Right on cue for me to go enjoy the rest of my Sunday.

00 March 8th, 2009

I remind myself, put it on my calendar, my computer automatically adjusts and yet every single year Springing ahead sneaks up on me.

00 March 7th, 2009

Watched The Watchmen… “And I whispered… long.”

00 March 7th, 2009

Good run. Somehow managed to avoid the rain.

00 March 7th, 2009
00 March 7th, 2009

@dkr Sweet! I didn’t know The Thermals were going to be there! I’ve only listened to a few albums, but what I’ve heard, I’ve loved.

00 March 6th, 2009

3/3 from Zappos! I’m never this successful with shoe purchases.

00 March 6th, 2009

Excited to see my name in print! http://www.flickr.com/photos/twatson/3333760756/

00 March 6th, 2009

@jcroft Brilliant! Creepy Birthday ending is gone!

00 March 6th, 2009

Whenever I add someone’s birthday to my calendar I make sure it repeats every year. The problem is, it makes that ends field so morbid.

00 March 5th, 2009

Flipping through some photos and settling in for a calm night in.

00 March 5th, 2009

Getting all the little things in order for the official launch of @97Bottles next week.

00 March 5th, 2009

Fired up some “recession stew” in the crock pot this morning.

00 March 4th, 2009

Has opted for a long shower and some strong tea, in hopes of thwarting this lackluster morning.

00 March 4th, 2009

Motivation and inspiration are lacking on this grey morning here in Seattle.

00 March 4th, 2009

@martinjy Thanks!

00 March 3rd, 2009

@danrubin Oh I’m in!

00 March 3rd, 2009

Staring out at the sun and wishing I wasn’t inside working.

@mintchaos I love it. I borrowed one for a few months and just had to get my own.

00 March 2nd, 2009

Yes! The 85mm has arrived!

00 March 2nd, 2009

Dropping off my 10 year high school reunion “Did we find you?” postcard in the mail. Yeah, I don’t know what to think about it either.

00 March 1st, 2009

Men are stupid. Women are crazy. These six words speak more truth than stacks and stacks of philosophy books.

00 March 1st, 2009

The Polaroid Breakfast is now up on Sched: http://sxsw2009.sched.org/event/52f52d8caa032877d3cca1c9c7ecd4dd

00 March 1st, 2009

Laundry, cleaning and grocery shopping. All the makings of a wild Sunday.
