Gah! Of course the @fiveironfrenzy + @mxpx Chicago show is after I move. And the Seattle date has already passed. #FIFproblems

@MsSwank She’s doing well. Going in tomorrow for a checkup.

You're still in the badass adults category, though.

Another month, another handle. :]

@michaelsayeth Where at in the souf?

@michaelsayeth Yep! I arrive in Bellingham on April 27th. Want to help me unpack? jk :]

Took me a moment to catch it since I wasn’t looking at the names/photos right away, but then I cracked up. Awesome.

Had a bad dream that I woke up and it was snowing in Chicago.

Aw, crap.

Great tip! I added some simple sanitizing: if “http” appears in the string and isn’t at position zero, remove everything before its position. This way it strips the “check out so-and-so’s tweet” text and just leaves the URL.

Mom’s pacemaker surgery went well yesterday. We just got back from the hospital today and she’s resting/building up her cyborg power. Thanks for the thoughts/prayers, everyone.

Everything is looking good with Mom. Getting discharged from the hospital currently.

@kateemick [jerks]

Whoa, you're right.

“That was the most fun surgery ever.” Something Mom actually said, not ironically.

Mom's surgery is done and went well!

Mom’s going into surgery now. Estimated to take 2–3 hours.

@indiana_mama They were telegrams actually.

@indiana_mama You're sooo old, mom of two. :P

@indiana_mama Did you get my texts yesterday?

At the VA hospital overhearing how awful people are today and how perfect things used to be.

Mom’s pacemaker surgery will be about 12:30PM Eastern. Thoughts/prayers appreciated.
