Twitter

OK so maybe this twitter thing is kind of cool but only because I can post to Twitter using Jott. It's a must. All you do is setup your free Jott account and activate the Twitter tool. Then you call the toll free number from your cell phone and leave a voice mail which is then converted to text and posted to your Twitter account within 5min. Now that's kind of cool. I've gotta agree w/SL Facebook is over you gotta Twitter. Man do I sound like a nerd.

My web spots....

We were at a friends house on Sunday, the CEO and I basically slept with our eyes open the whole time. The company was great and I do apologize but we were just both so tired, I can't wait 'till these little ones sleep 6 hours or more per night consistently. Anyhow our friend said we need to be on Twitter and that Facebook is over and this got me thinking of where my web hot spots are (minus the obvios ones). Before I list them I have to say that I agree that Facebook is over I was done with it pretty quick, I just don't get it. Also check over on the right side of my blog for my Twitter posts and link, I don't think I get Twitter either. Here's my list:

My old favorite

The Boston Celtics were my team growing up. I had an affinity for all of the local teams but none as much as the Boston Celtics. I was sure that someday I'd grow up to play for the Celtics and as my mother recently reminded me my father told me I could play for them. I don't remember the day I finally realized that I wasn't that good of a ball player but apparently I was slightly disappointed in my Dad's support. Anyhow, the real point is that the Celtics are on the verge of winning an NBA title and I'm just as excited as if I was 12. This morning I found myself reading the Boston Globe sports page with a huge smile on my face. Go C's!

Life....................

For some unknown reason it seems that we are expert at keeping sea monkeys alive. Our sea monkey community is rapidly approaching the year and a half mark with no signs of slowing down. It is virtually a self contained ecosystem, I couldn't tell you the last time I fed them maybe 2 months ago. We will often get down to one lone sea monkey and he/she will live for a week or two alone the last surviving member of the clan and then like magic one morning there will be babies swarming all of the water and the community will begin to grow again.

Misc...

Sometimes I have a total sugar meltdown, today I ate about ten Oreo cookies right after dinner. Actually they were the organic version but what's the difference they aren't healthy. And I just finished reading Michael Pollan's latest book "In Defense of Food" where he advocates eating whole foods and avoiding all things processed. It has change my outlook a little but not enough to prevent a sugar meltdown.

I can't get this song out of my head (Maps by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs):

I've always had a soft spot for Girl Rock Vocalists.

7:45PM and everyone is sleeping. The CEO is in bed with "The Little Guy" and "The Big Guy" is sleeping in the much overused swing. The kitchen is a mess and I want to clean it up but I'm sure any clanking sound will wake someone. It has been a wild 7 weeks and I'm pretty....damn it here comes someone...The Kid is restless, I don't think she's going to stay in bed. Anyhow, it has been a wild ride with the brood of kids we now have and I'm thinking that this wild ride is going to continue for perhaps the rest of my life. I'm looking forward to it but I haven't quite adjusted. I spoke with someone in work who had six kids and he said it never gets easy but you just end up letting a lot of stuff slide. Sounds about right.

Hi....

Last time I wrote I was part of a family of four. Now we are a family of six! Yikes. It's been fun, exciting and even scary at times. Right now I'm hoping that we are about 25% through the initial sleepless haze. Four hours that's the big goal, when these boys can sleep for four hours straight then we start to get some of our sanity back.
I'm so tired, I've noticed that my misspelling rate is sky high and that my short term memory is gone and that's pretty amazing considering how bad both of those things were prior to the boys.

Good night......

Come out come out where ever your are...

We seem to be in a holding pattern. We so desperately want these two little boys to arrive on their own terms and at the right time but we so want the right time to be now. The CEO and I spoke earlier about how until she puts something down in writing it often doesn't happen. She busy at her own keyboard right now. Perhaps she's asking the boys to arrive.

We are so very ready for these little guys to come. I can't wait to meet them and find out who they are.

(We've better settle on some names really quick)

Cookie.

Does anyone really like Snickerdoodles? In my opinion they are probably the most overrated cookie.

So Soon.

We are so rapidly closing in on "go time" it's crazy. I know we are going to have two babies in this house very soon yet in someways it still doesn't seem real. We have prepared but not in the manner we did for either kid 1 or 2. We've manage to keep two kids alive for a combined total of 9 years, this gives us some confidence that we will do OK with these new guys.

It seemed like a nice quite morning where I'd be able to write a nice little piece for my blog. But The Kid has decided that she's going to get all up in my space. She's actually behaving very well but is just doing to much space invading. It is all a plot in which she is trying to force me off of the laptop so she can write on hear blog.
