"you should innovate with your writing. maybe a love rhombus? & one of them turns out to be a squid?" â€” my father, story expert #
@mkazoo i should tweet more responsibly, no doubt. #okra #repentencetweets in reply to mkazoo #
@danaROrana this guilt tastes like mom's homemade meatballs. #deliciousguilts in reply to danaROrana #
@rquat all emanations of people are a commentary on their environment. especially squidacious love pentacles. in reply to rquat #
@taylor_audrey it's a trap: if somebody tells me what to write, it's not innovation. in reply to taylor_audrey #
WHERE IS YOUR WALDO NOW? http://t.co/THZbQSS #
where's waldo: foxhunt #
where's waldo: urban fugitive #
WERE-WALDO, when waldo bites the normal folks around him & suddenly the whole park is full of waldos, & the object becomes "flee waldo" #
i'm just saying i want to make a "where's waldo" game that includes a pack of hunting mastiffs. #nowheretorun #nowheretohide #
when a job listing says "Ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide in all units of measure," do they mean lumens? ephahs? parsecs? #
somebody hire me to make fun of job listings. #

@danaROrana you'd get better anyway; my way is just arguably faster sometimes. & then other times i'm just wrong, so watch out for that. in reply to danaROrana #
now i really want soup. RT @qikipedia: If you could take all the bacteria out of your body, they would be enough to fill a large soup can. #

out with the oldmonia, in with the pneu. #
@mkazoo docket = finish the story about angels i started in london, then start the one from the attic. in reply to mkazoo #

@Keffy so i did that @klout thing (you pushed me to) & apparently i'm "influential" about shakespeare, william shakespeare, & boston. what? in reply to Keffy #
@Keffy obviously the first one is the lesser known Phillipe Shakespeare, the french 100 years war reenacter. he's functionally illiterate. in reply to Keffy #
Found my trove of caffeine pills from That Job. #
No real effect except i've been galloping around the house, bellowing 'STAY ALERT, STAY ALIVE' for a while. #
@kateulinah why, are the jim-jams in danger? email explanations for maximum efficient privacy. in reply to kateulinah #

Frei lebt wer sterben kann. — isak dinesen #
oh that time of night when my eyes become autonomous flames. excellent choice, sleepless brain. #
@themattlondon those anti-force sloths tripped me right out. in reply to themattlondon #
@themattlondon i agree. my initial enthusiasm for the prequels was based on zahn. also: noghri. yes. in reply to themattlondon #
@themattlondon exactly right. wreaks all kinds of hell with motivation, teamwork (could you work with yourself?), possible traitors, &c in reply to themattlondon #
@themattlondon as in, given enough possible chances, would some version of yourself turn & run? re-ally with somebody else? (obi-waaaaaaans) in reply to themattlondon #

@ittyprecious don't you just? perfect temperature, nice and overcast. nc currently contains the finest of all the weathers. in reply to ittyprecious #
@kelceyherrera some bodies contain more dancing than others. my body contains a lot of awkward standing, for instance. in reply to kelceyherrera #
all my plot-cogs are doing plot-coggy stuff in this story, all on their own. like a herd of freshly buttered snails down a slip n' slide. #
@kelceyherrera the awkward standing dance = shift from foot to foot, clamp your upper arms against your torso, & drywash your hands. #stylin in reply to kelceyherrera #
@realvalnolan we have also hollowed out the earth & built an escape moon inside. when we use up this husk of a planet we will fly away on it in reply to realvalnolan #

@realvalnolan you puppet of hell-gibbons, you. in reply to realvalnolan #
@realvalnolan YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH in reply to realvalnolan #
'you know, you're a lot like john boy walton.' — my grandmother, character consultant #
