Makeup issues definitely, jaw falling off maybe.
Yesterday was the greatest Halloween ever. I love Halloween and I love my wifey!
Now number 2 in various search terms for my web design company. I should really start focusing more energy on SEO and I'd be numero uno.
These scammers aren't even trying anymore. Just got this email: "You won 750,000gbp.Send:Name,Age,Country" Wow, looks legit!

Posted this morning. You should be seeing a slight spike in traffic.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. http://bit.ly/35AypE
Replying to @thatsiebguy
No problem man... let me know any other cool Mac related stuff you post too. And I'm curious to know how many hits you got...
I hate you fedex for holding my magic mouse hostage.
Out with the old, in with the new. http://yfrog.com/149utaj
I love this new office chair! My old one was 8 years old and had basically no padding. It's like a brand new office!
Replying to @tysilzer
Why are you awake?! It's late! Get some sleep!
Going to try to go right from work to sleep. This never works, but i'll give it a shot.
Just freed up almost 30 gigs of space by deleting a shitload of old podcasts I'll never listen to again. My hard drive is thanking me.
Got my Magic Mouse, finally! The low profile is going to take some getting used to.
IE6 usage down to 10% according to W3. When can we stop supporting it as web designers? Answer: 2 years ago.
Replying to @ttscoff
Preach it brotha. I have taken to upgrading their browser rather than "fix" their site. This makes me either brilliant or lazy.
Replying to @ttscoff
You and I would make great business partners.
Replying to @ohTwentyone
You need new clients. I kid, I kid.
Work work work... dying for a famine with too much feasting.
Dinner at Alexander's Steakhouse tonight. Collected on some debts so it was free, making it even more delicious.
There is something wrong with my work schedule when I consider quitting at 12:30 an early night.
I don't know why this is so damn funny to me.
Replying to @AronT
Quit complainin'... After working 14 - 16 hour days the past week or 2, I'd kill for only 12.
Note to self: save early, save often.
Related thought: Damn it.
Replying to @AronT
I like it for around 9 hours per day, tops. Then I start hating everything.
Keep your eyes open, Timmy... just a little more work tonight and you'll be able to sleep well.
Got done 99% of what I planned on getting done tonight, and that's close enough. Now to veg out on the couch for a bit before sleep.
Finally! After just 2.5 months my initial @backblaze backup is finished. Now my house can burn down and it's no biggie.
Captcha fail. http://bit.ly/2KPilE
I got Twitterrific on the MacHeist nano bundle thing. After using Tweetie I gotta say, this thing SUCKS.
I know, free, I can't complain. But it still sucks.
Replying to @radjose
Thanks for the heads up buddy!
Replying to @radjose
Fixed now, but also nothing new.
@FreelanceFolder I am a freelance web designer and developer (and soon contributor to your site!) #freelancefolder.
I wish I hadn't abused caffeine so harshly for my entire life so it could actually help at times like this.
@michelob's Bavarian Style Wheat is delicious. Highly recommended if you're a drinkin' type.

I need to follow more Twitter peeps who are awake and tweeting at stupid hours like this one.
Canceled meeting! Thank God, now I can get work done. Too bad I already changed out of my pajamas.
What a happy family. http://yfrog.com/7bg0cbj
Wow, my Mac just crashed hard. Twice in a row. And fried my Time Machine backup disk in the process. That sucks.
I think my computer is rebelling against the work I've been making it do lately. That means I'm done for the night.
PS- feelin' guilty I only put in 10.5 hours today.
I love how Google always logs me out right in the middle of typing a long email. Where's my option to stay logged in for eternity?
Replying to @horrorpodcast
Yeah yeah, smart-ass, but my point is that it logs you off every few weeks anyway.
Replying to @horrorpodcast
Also, totally unrelated, but the wifey had her first interview with a company in London a week or 2 back. We're comin'....
Just turned out a consistent freelancing gig. Feels weird to turn something down I was so excited about a few weeks ago.
Replying to @horrorpodcast
Some recruitment company, so they place people all over the country. Went well. We're looking at April-ish to head over.
Alright, pullin' out my space heater to keep my freelancing cave warm enough. If Apple would create a heated Magic Mouse I'd be a happy man.
Can't forget to pimp my stuff for @tuaw...

Replying to @TechDaddyK
Lots of suggestions. What is your current workflow?
Replying to @TechDaddyK
You got mail!
Took a timeout to be lazy and play Mario Kart. I think I'm becoming obsessed.
I rarely fill a sketchbook, but I am always ready to buy new ones.
Replying to @film_girl
happy birthday! And also happy birthday to @AronT!
At a coffee shop working while some solicitor tries to sell the owners cleaning products. It is getting uncomfortable up in here.
You know how they say the more one has to do, the more they get done? Well, welcome to my world.
Happy Friday the 13th! I should be watching horror movies, not working.
Anyone out there need a Google Voice invite? I know I'm late the the invite party, but just in case you don't have one yet, hit me up.
Replying to @cpurest
Sent. Enjoy.

britney marketing britney marketing britney marketing! This has been a test of the spammers awesome marketing strategy.
Replying to @ttscoff
Nothin' yet. I wonder if it was XXX that was the trigger?
Replying to @AronT and @ttscoff
No spam followers from my experiment. I am very disappointed.
Replying to @ttscoff and @AronT
effective social marketing! effective social marketing! even more effective social marketing! the most times infinity!
Replying to @ttscoff
The spammers love you and they hate me. Consider this experiment closed.
Replying to @ttscoff
I take that back, I did get a spammer... a "Twittsultant". Seriously?
Replying to @AronT
I only got one and @ttscoff got 12! My only explanation is that his smiling avatar is more attractive to spammers than mine.
Replying to @radjose
I do! I'll send it now.
"Compensation will be in the form of equity in the company". Yeah, right... movin' on...
I need to consider some serious changing to hosting and payment requirements on my standard contract.
Jack Johnson, Joe Purdy and Johnny Cash are my new favorite "in-order-almost-all-day-no-skipping-or-playlists-necessary" music selections.
I bet a lot of band names are born out of bizarre captcha phrases.
Starting the day with a hot chocolate is my new favorite thing about freelancing. Not that I couldn't do this with a regular job, but still.
Thanks to the latest MacHeist bundle I didn't pay a dime for Mariner Write, and yet, somehow, I still feel ripped off.
Contracts, proposals, invoices and negotiating, oh my! I feel almost like a real business man. Almost.
Dear Life,
Thank you for rocking so hard. You rule.
Love forever,
Tim
I love it when my clients try to design for me. Ah well, another project I won't put my name on.
Next week I temporarily go back to my former employer, this time as a vendor rather than employee. Feels weird and good at the same time.
It's one of those days where I'm adding items to my to-do list just to cross them off.
Replying to @tysilzer
I see your point, but as a huge fan of the fail blog I cannot agree with your stance.
Was just turned down for a website bid by coming in at 10 times the lowest bidder. Whoops!
Replying to @ttscoff
I agree, but this was a country/bluegrass singer which would have been a cool project! Oh well, no big loss.
Request time-out by LightSpeed web server. Ironic.
Replying to @vagredajr
Definitely wine bar.
My job in a nutshell. http://businessguysonbusinesstrips.com/?p=188
I suck at video games. And, somehow, my life is still complete.
It only took 2 comments before someone called my article stupid. Thanks commenters! http://bit.ly/5DNFfz/
Replying to @verso
That's what you get for running Vista.
Watching werewolf marsupials in Howling 3. It's just as awesome as it sounds. Maybe even more.
I'm watching Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. Awesome that they thought in 1991 we'd have ape slaves. I wish!
I really hate styling forms. The bane of a web designer's existence, table-less forms.
Tomorrow, bright and early, it's back to the grindstone. I have to wear nice clothes, and report to work in a cubicle. But such is life.
Thank God I am only going to be a cube-dwellar for a month, and a sporadic one, but it's still a weird dose of how normal people work.
@quickspit Thanks for the follow! Always good to see another Peoria Mac fan.
Back to work a little earlier, and much more sharply-dressed, than usual. Feels good to be back, I guess?
I'd forgotten some of the joys of working in an office: overhearing nose-blows, muzak, and endless typing all around me.
Hill had a good point today. 1 year ago I was stressed out because I had no work. This year, I'm stressed because I have too much.
What a difference a year makes.
I hate being awake this early.
Sitting on my desk: 4 bars, full 3G. Pick up to text, searching for signal. A difference of about 4 inches. Great job, AT&T!
Thanksgiving savings: 1Password Touch Pro is free in the app store (normally $7.99US)! http://is.gd/52KFv (via @ttscoff)
Things to be thankful for this turkey day: My life allows me to wake up without an alarm clock most days. On the days I use one though, ouch
Replying to @tysilzer
The 2nd one.
Happy day-before-thanksgiving! At Kouris if anyone wants to joins us for a brew. http://yfrog.com/3nqrsjj
Woah, a whoppin' 8 invites to Google Wave! If you want one, DM or email me.
Freelance Overload: How To Deal With Too Much Work http://bit.ly/7hFZzk (via @FreelanceFolder) - My first blog post for Freelance Folder!
Replying to @tyatsymbolyou
You forgot "don't worry about sleeping". But yeah, coulda summed it up in 1 sentence.
I should charge my clients extra for having to work on their super-slow servers. How frustrating.
Came home to find my mailbox had been knocked over. A pissed off client or honest mistake? The world will never know.
Sorry Tweetie, looks like you're about to be replaced by Socialite.
"Create a CCK content type to store images as nodes using ImageField." Jesus, I have a lot to learn about Drupal-speak.
I just generated a #TweetCloud out of a year of my tweets. Top three words: time, love, life - http://w33.us/4gk1
