    • Watching Brothers & Sisters on DVR. Hubby just erased Celebrity Apprentice. Sorry @zappos! #
    • Just bought a Wii Fit at the Game Stop in Christown Mall. Just learned of reviews on gamestop.com last week & didn’t know they had stores. #
    • BTW, the guy at the Indian restaurant who asked if I were blogging was a young American-accented Indian guy with a turban. He has a G1 too! #
    • Just saw a very tall man and a little dwarf woman within three minutes. If it’s a sign, I’m not sure of what. Anyway, long live diversity! #
    • We’re at Indian Delhi Palace. “Taking a picture of our food?” Yes! “Probably blogging now, right?” Right! 😉 http://short.to/2bxt #
    • Andy & I are heading to the Desert Botanical garden with guest passes. Anyone interested? DM me. The cactus & succulent show is there now. #
    • @bookgrl & @anyvite Thanks for your suggestions. #
    • We’re at Rose Mofford dog park. http://short.to/2b6a #

    • The “Catalan artist” in VickyChristinaBarcelona & his ex-wife (Penelope Cruz) speak Castilian & his father writes poetry in Spanish. Hello? #
    • Vicky’s in Barcelona for her Master’s in Catalan culture, but she takes Spanish, falls in love with a “Catalan artist” who speaks Castilian. #
    • Searched Twitter for vicky christina barcelona catalan: http://tinyurl.com/b88g7o Found someone else who noticed the absence of Catalan. #
    • Watching Vicky Christina Barcelona, which has been on my Netflix Saved queue for months and top of queue for weeks. Very long wait over! #
    • So, #PrivatePractice jumped ahead three months this last episode. And it’s a good thing Addison didn’t kiss her patient’s husband! Ugh! #
    • How would you invite people to a private birthday party? Snail mail? Email? Facebook? Twitter? Evite? Upcoming? Friends only Flickr photo? #
    • Going to fix myself some hot chocolate, and then I must tweak my slideshow to shrink my workshop on Genre Recognition from 5 to 3.5 hours. #
    • Reading comments on my Flickr photos & responding, looking at commenters’ photos, looking at my Friends’ photos. http://tinyurl.com/d236wz #

    • #TGIF Andy & I are going to a friend’s house for dinner. Have a great time at #evfn & #sxsw tonight! Wish I could beam from place to place! #
    • I wonder how soon before I’m invited to join the group, “100,000,000 Against the New Facebook!” #
    • OH @ library That’ll be $2 for a replacement card. Hm… been a long time? You’re not in the system, so a new card is free. (makes sense?) #
    • @calitrano RT “Just get to the F’N point!” Ha! Don’t tell me you’ll be happy to help me; just help me! #TMobile #CustomerService in reply to calitrano #
    • Anyone else out there who can’t stand T-Mobile telephone customer service? All the sympathies, paraphrases, repetitions of everything I say! #

    • Who’s that hot guy guest starring on Grey’s Anatomy? I finally found out it’s Michael Rady, Kostas from Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants! #
    • I was just thinking wasn’t that guy a child actor? Then I realized he was! Councilman Archie was Daniel-san, the Karate Kid. #UglyBetty #
    • Wow! Samantha Who’s coming back two weeks from tonight. Don’t mean to sound like a commercial, but I like the show & Christina Applegate. #
    • “Hilda should totally go out with that councilman guy.” I totally agree! Been wondering when he’d be back on Ugly Betty again. #
    • My third Wii Sports fitness test reveals my Wii age to be 45– only 3 years older than I actually am. Sucking at putting didn’t help. Fit? #
    • @PinchMySalt Yep! I’m on Facebook too. Daniel Greene in Phoenix, Arizona. Search no spam at daniel greene dot com. (Mostly for ppl I know.) in reply to PinchMySalt #
    • I wish I could be home with my husband who’s recouperating from a colonoscopy, but I gotta work. I trust he will be okay at home today. #
    • @pinchmysalt Before I knew you were on Flickr and Twitter, I found and linked to your blog post about red velvet cake. Small world! #

    • @the808girl I don’t think I can do transliteration vs. translation justice in 140 characters. Write me: no spam at Daniel Greene dot com. #
    • Just finished playing Wii Sports for a while. I enjoy the non-threatening training in baseball, bowling, golf, tennis, and boxing. It’s fun! #
    • Prepping to interpret lecture by Alfred Lubrano, Limbo: Blue-Collar Roots, White-Collar Dreams at Phoenix College http://tinyurl.com/akzjon #

    • @Bobilu When HOVRS interviewed me in January 2004, they did so over webcam– even though I was using a Mac (and still am). VRS Co’s should! #
    • Listening to a story on sexting has me thinking over a lot of issues related to nudity, pornography, & social taboos related to sex & youth. #
    • Excuse me; I’m about to get my hands greasy eating a large slice of New York combo pizza at Streets of New York. Om-nom-nom-nom. #
    • I Googled “best local restaurant Thunderbird Glendale” and it led me to Zorbas. My GPS directed me to it but it seems to have been replaced. #
    • I guess you have to have a lot more followers to get quick answers to questions thrown out there on Twitter. 😉 #
    • Anyone know of a great local eatery near 55th Ave & Thunderbird in Glendale? #
    • Just parked at an interpreting job & finished listening to @ev & @biz on @totn. Writing a novel 140 chars at a time… cool idea! #
    • Interesting how waking up at 6 after getting to bed at 10 I feel more refreshed than waking up at 7 after getting to bed at 11! #goodmorning #
