@so_yun Sure thing! I have lots of Korean food to share that my mom stocked before leaving this morning. I also have large candy bars. 😉 in reply to so_yun #
Change, feed, get baby to sleep, pump, clean pump gear, then baby wants to wake up to be changed and fed again. When can I sleep? #
Wrists feel like they are going to splinter into hot, painful shards. #
@Ryuhi Congrats! I can't wait to read all about the little guy on tgf!! Heh, gramps. 😉 in reply to Ryuhi #
In addition to all her pragmatic, relevant advice, I like that our pediatrician asked which of @helava or I were returning to work first. #
I can't believe Senor Mcchompersons already weighs more than 9lbs. :-O #
Friend @bcaudill says y'all should sign up for @ribbitmobile (her client) – better than Google Voice! http://www.ribbit.com/mobile/ #
I have de Quervain' s tendonitis. Yoinks. #
Obligatory baby feet pic: http://twitpic.com/o69mr #
Get Card Ace on the iPhone. http://bit.ly/3DIc80 Hold 'em you can play on iPhone/Pre/Facebook and with @wordace friends. FREE! #
@eisfore I think they come from @helava's genes. 🙂 in reply to eisfore #
@NBB1 Arg! I knew I forgot to put something on the TiVo. Oh wait, I think I still have time since I'm west coast. No good though? in reply to NBB1 #
Loving Stacy Tookey's choreo on #sytycd. Legacy has won me over with that routine. #
Fell behind on pain meds and WHOA BOY, my body is reminding me that I had major surgery. #
RT @sarahlafon: Denying gay people the right to marry HURTS. Separate but equal isn't! And in Maine and CA, gay Americans deserve better. #
@incidentist What can I do to support the nomination? in reply to incidentist #
@bcaudill Ugh! Do they have any place they are referring or are they leaving you high and dry? I hope the rest of the plans stay solid. in reply to bcaudill #

@bcaudill Ugh, tragically disappointing. Earls of Pembroke! *sigh* in reply to bcaudill #
Cetaphil, Dreft, and Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo all look and smell identical. I suspect they are. The jig is up! #
Hospital bill for me: $50k, for baby: $10k, for antenatal non-stress testing: $5k. Let's see how much insurance covers. #
@AngryChad Yeah, who knew how $$ giving birth was. What kind of insurance does @StephDecker have that is so costly? Health care reform now! in reply to AngryChad #
@helava But we'd get a signing bonus. 😀 in reply to helava #

RT @BarackObama: House passes historic reform to provide health care for every American. Congratulating my colleagues on the floor. #

Sue Sylvester's kitty cat speech was the best part of a great episode of #glee. #
Jin practices ballroom in his sleep. I think he needs to connect with the audience more. 😀 http://twitpic.com/mzieh #
Baby eats a butt-ton but very, very slowly. I wish he were more like @helava and less like me in this way. #
I had said before that @helava was going to be the best dad ever. In reality, he is even better than that. Also, best husband ever. î„† #
Our one-week-old! He looks peaceful here, but he causes a ruckus every hour. Oh the humanity! http://twitpic.com/n3w0u #
Mom: "You have to eat like a cow so you can produce milk like a cow." How dehumanizing. T_T #

Ninja baby photo by @helava: http://twitpic.com/n8ujd #
@AngryChad @StephDecker Wow, thanks, you two! That quilt is so awesome! #

@Glennia We were so excited to have three little trick-or-treaters! They were excited in return by our full-sized candy bars. in reply to Glennia #
@mwilh Where in Texas do you live?My best friend is moving to San Antonio in November and wondered if I knew anyone in the area. #
@so_yun We never get more than one or two kids, so we've learned to buy just a couple of large bars rather than lots of fun-sized candy. 🙂 in reply to so_yun #
Looking forward to seeing all the awesome costumed pics show up on my friends' photostreams tomorrow. #

First, make some kimchi jjigae for lunch. Second, noms. Then clean out fridge. Priorities, people. #

I dread the rainy season because no amount of cleaning keeps the floors from being covered on mud daily, thanks to Mobi. #
*With* mud, I mean. #
@MJ It's amazing that babies can hold so much in there! in reply to MJ #
I'm so glad @helava doesn't have to commute in this rain today, as it's a work-from-remote day for him. Rain like this invites accidents. #
Anyone know of a good general contractor in Oakland who does windows? #
One week post-due date, there has been the tiniest of progress: 60% effaced, almost 1cm dilated. My body is mocking me. I shall mock it back #

@WordAce Balonvi! Someone used this nonword the other day in a hand. We speculated it was Bon Jovi + baloney = crazy delicious. 🙂 in reply to WordAce #
Why would anyone call anyone else at 6am unless it was a dire emergency? And no, there was no emergency. #
I'm at koreana plaza (2370 Telegraph Ave, 24th, Oakland). http://bit.ly/6TEPZ #
The top four from the latest Top Chef have been my top four choices from the beginning to take it to the end. Love them! #

Foursquare is wrong. I'm at neither of those places. #
@SwanL I must concur. Use the spicy to scare off illness! in reply to SwanL #
A lot of cocoa butter lotions smell really good, but this one smells like a delicious dessert. I suppose I shouldn't try to eat it though. #
Calling at 2am is infinitely less acceptable than calling at 6am. #
@bcaudill Her diatribe would make it all worth while. She is so awesomely wrong. 🙂 in reply to bcaudill #
My mom is turning into me: http://twitpic.com/lriq6 #

At final non-stress test. #
Now that @helava has played The Final Countdown in full for the baby, I expect him to pay attention and get going. You can do it! #
@NBB1 Bone marrow = delicious. Yum. in reply to NBB1 #
@SwanL Happy birthday! 🙂 in reply to SwanL #
Ugly Betty has lost all its charm. Meh. #

@SwanL I'm pretty psyched for this season too. Lots of good talent. in reply to SwanL #
@hja 🙁 Boo insomnia. I hope you get some uninterrupted rest. in reply to hja #
Did some light vacuuming while waiting for cleaning service to come & do initial assessment for postpartum help. Futile & back-ouch-afying. #
Ok, baby. I'm ready. Just come out already. It's crowded in there, isn't it?Just stop trying to evict my ribs. #
@veraciousjess Can I still find it hilarious that she was drinking from a shot glass? 😀 in reply to veraciousjess #

I'm at Bocanova (55 Webster Street, Jack London Square, Oakland). http://bit.ly/4pbGc #
Insurance fail: My coverage has me listed under the wrong first name AND wrong last name. WTF. #
@mwilh Heh, yeah. Best part is that they were like, yeah, you'd have been denied coverage if you went into labor earlier this week. Thanks. in reply to mwilh #
I'm at Fentons (4226 Piedmont Ave, Ridgeway Ave, Oakland). http://bit.ly/KyJs0 #
@SwanL It sure is! It's a local favorite. Every1 was excited to see it in the movie. My favorite diner is also referenced as a badge. in reply to SwanL #
@Ryuhi @RobZograph @StephDecker @AngryChad Have fun at paintball! Don't forget the pics at the end of the carnage! 😀 #

@AngryChad I keep expecting to see photos of my dog, Mobi. 🙂 in reply to AngryChad #
Just finished the last of the birth classes. Glad to have our evenings free again, if only for a very, very short time. 😀 #
Crappy night of sleep counting frequent yet irregular & painless contractions. They are not getting more intense/regular, so not in labor. #
Korean comfort food for lunch: rice & fried eggs sprinkled with some soy sauce and sesame oil, accompanied by some seaweed. #
Play it now! Hold 'em + Scrabble-like play! RT @WordAce: Word Ace on Facebook: http://tinyurl.com/ye25ucx #

Maybe I'll try to make some authentic Philly cheesesteaks this week. Hmm. #
@abeldanger @patrick_ellis @rachelolimb Ooh, pics! Wish I was there! in reply to abeldanger #
Finally finished BSG. Rather unsatisfying. #
Will be trying to get a flu shot at the local Walgreens today. Will try CVS/Longs after that if it is too crowded or something. #
@JustPete74 Agreed. The wrap ups were both too tidy and not at all tidy at the same time. Frustrating. in reply to JustPete74 #
What?! RT @StephDecker: This pisses me off. Come on Dems, stop being such pansies. Abstinence only funding, really!? http://bit.ly/e5aub #
I feel like I had a decent amount of energy last week, but this week, it's all gone. #
Time to eat lunch. Better late than never! Then off to track down a flu shot. #
Ha! Made of awesome. RT @luciuskwok: Bwitter: like Twitter, except you're only allowed to be angry. Or be from Philly. #
At Walgreen's, waiting for merc- & preservative-free flu shot. There is an older woman in line with boxes of latex gloves & diet coke. ??? #

I just unlocked the "Local" badge on @foursquare! http://bit.ly/Wc9FM #
@SwanL So very MacGuyver of you. Did you sport a glorious mullet in tribute? 🙂 in reply to SwanL #
@SwanL Maybe so! I'm amazed by your ability to be in two states at once. Not that I can verify your supposed AZ presence… Hmm… in reply to SwanL #
Any opinions on the geotagging capabilities of the Eye-fi SD cards? I am thinking of getting one that geotags and uploads videos. #
Played WordAce on iPhone earlier in the evening w a really fun group of strangers, played more just now on Facebook w @helava & friend. 🙂 #
Just made a reservation for Commis http://www.commisrestaurant.com/ for tomorrow night. The chef was Chef de Cuisine at Manresa! Can't wait! #

@aaa Not yet. They say it'll become available this coming week, they think. in reply to aaa #
I believe I've just taken Mobi on my last possible daily walk for a long time. Took 35 min to go ~0.7miles, which equals 1.2 mph. #
Just made contact w a dog walker who might be able to help us the first few weeks after the baby arrives. Hoping the consultation goes well! #
@SwanL We have a treadmill that my dog is deathly terrified of. Heh. He's such a wimp! 😀 in reply to SwanL #
@helava What time? You can go after dinner. 🙂 in reply to helava #
Afternoon nap foiled by it being just too too too hot. I can't wait until mild weather stops affecting me like it's blazing summer heat. #
The baby is staging his prison break, as far as I can tell: http://twitvid.com/2D887 #
Agreed with @helava that Commis was awesome. We are going back tomorrow. So great to have a restaurant of that caliber so close by. #

Stopping for bubble tea after The American Idiot musical, which was great! #
Played a hour of #wordace with noncheating, nonaggressive bettors. Best kind of game to play if you can't play with friends! Lots of fun. #

Doing laundry, made plans to meet with pediatrician, and scheduled what will probably be my last nice haircut in a long time. #
Just booked car maintenance so our cars don't freak out and need help just as the baby is born. I hope the baby waits until next week. #
My sister told me her swelling & joint pain lasted several months after giving birth. She is a killjoy and I'd like everyone to know it. :p #

Pork belly, rice, and lettuce wraps for dinner. #

To do tomorrow: more laundry, clear out dresser drawers, pick up some baby first aid stuff & my vitamins, get haircut, and go to class. #
@abeldanger The intel commercials have been pretty awesome. in reply to abeldanger #
America's Best Dance Crew had a pretty feeble run this season. Was not impressed by Sunday's episode. #
Being nervous about giving birth is almost a stall tactic for not thinking about what it means to bring that baby home. It's terrifying. #
Bumpits: a) hair accessory, b) underarms of the homeless, c) plumber's crack, d) all of the above? What a terrible product name. #
RT @westcoastbill: The First Engadget Show with Palm CEO John Rubinstein and Word Ace mention! http://post.ly/5uzH #

Averaging 5hrs of sleep per night while I'm supposed to be resting up is so wrong. Only managed to nap two days for about an hour. Ugh. #

Sometimes, I run across a username on my IM lists and can't remember who it is. That probably means I should delete the name, but I can't. #

@bcaudill 22 to 33 is kind of a big age gap for someone her age. I am surprised he is only 33, not to say he looks old or anything. 😀 in reply to bcaudill #
Last night was dinner & hanging out w @bcaudill & some guy I vaguely know w no Twitter acct. 😉 2nite is dinner w DUC Corp. 🙂 #

Wow. It's raining now. Weird. #
@MJ LOL! in reply to MJ #
Walking around is pretty hard now. Baby's movements are getting painful. Getting a bit scared of that first contraction, whenever it happens #
Kinda freaked out that as of Tuesday, I will officially be unemployed on paper for the first time since I started working 11 years ago. #
@SwanL Nope, but we are fewer than 50 employees, so FMLA and CFRA don't cover me. Just found out CA PDLL might though. in reply to SwanL #
Back from the Kimchi Mamas Bay Area meetup! Thanks for arranging, @so_yun! Wanted to go karaoke w them, but too tired. #
Man, I just can't believe how awesome The Beatles: Rockband is. Played through 5 chapters of Story Mode w @helava tonight. He's so much fun! #
This unemployed versus taking leave thing is really stressing me out. It's the last thing I expected to be stressed about. Can't sleep. #

Already seem to have shed 3lbs of the water retention. My feet, ankles, and legs more closely resemble that of a human being's. #

Weird when people complain about not being able to use proper nouns in @WordAce. Haven't they played any word games? http://bit.ly/4mFoZP #
@AngryChad LOL, I didn't mean you. I actually had thought Zen had become absorbed into the language as a common noun too. in reply to AngryChad #
@abecedary Sounds like a delicious meal! 😀 Mmmm… in reply to abecedary #
I would like to eat a giant piece of chocolate right now. #
@hja The thing with proper nouns is that I can claim "QUZAJIX" is someone's name or use local company names that are unknown nationally. in reply to hja #
@hja Heck, I can even try to use "EINYUNG". The part I was surprised by: how many people didn't play word games, not what they didn't know. in reply to hja #
@StephDecker I think "lying" since it's for self. 😀 Going to rummage through my pantry now. If I find any choco, will dedicate a piece 2 u. in reply to StephDecker #
It is awkward to get caught by someone else while you are chomping on a truly ginormous brick of semisweet baking chocolate in the morning. #
