big night tonight: 10 year old performs in "seussical the musical". first of five shows. wife is making me wear pants to the show. #
seussical the musical intermission. oldest child doing great. I sense I may be able to retire off of her talents one day. #
house passes health care reform bill! sweet – now i can finally take up smoking! #hcr #
wife and kids are out of the house so i'm doing what comes naturally to a man alone: watching football pregame shows. #
just rotated the mattresses – my talents never end. #
the 7 year old and i are going out for a treat. i suppose i'll get suckered into paying again. #
about to give 7 year old a major beat down in spongebob life. it'll build character. #

drinking beer, trying to forget about this grand jury thing. #
loading up on coffee in prep for leaf raking. looks cold enough out there for pants. #
barely survived four hours of leaf raking. now for a big dose of ibuprofen and a shower. i stink. #
based on the performance of the local teens who pack bags at the supermarket, i weep for our country's future. #

at Portland airport having my pre-flight oatmeal. still living dream. #
on board Alaska airlines flight to Boston. you can almost see the swine flu in the air. #
let's hear it for exit row seating! lots of room for my long gams. #
ok, looks like we're all on board. I'm ready to be pampered, coach-class style. #
next tweet will be from Boston. I'm sure these next 6 hours will just zip by. #
wheels down in Boston! time to head home to kid craziness. #
so i get home from my trip to portland to find i've been summoned to jury duty – GRAND jury duty. not good. #

so, i remembered to bring my dongle on this business trip, but, turns out i brought the WRONG dongle. awkward! #
4:30pm here on the west coast. seems way too early for a world series game. but, what the hell. #
conference day over. time for beer and baseball. #
honestly, i don't want to sound negative but it's not looking good for the phillies. #
another conference meal is down the hatch. already picked out beer drinking/dinner spot for later. #
Portland seems like a great place. the kind of place where a man get some thinking done – possibly without pants. #
there should still be a game 7 in the WS tonight. sports teams should be required to play the full length of a series no matter what. #

behold, for I am in portland! let the games begin. #
10:45pm pacific time/1:45am my time (eastern) time. WAY past my bedtime no matter how you cut it. #
good morning, portland! extra points to my hotel for providing the peet's coffee in the room. another plus: i am not gassy! #
missing my 10 year old's birthday party today, while i am across the country on business, i.e. continuing to scar child for life. #
dear maine, which i love so much: you get the boner award of the week for shooting down gay marriage. maybe boner isn't the right word… #

just printed out boarding pass for flight to portland tomorrow. kudos to alaska airlines for putting sudoku puzzles on boarding pass! #
looks like one of the phillies has an ouchy. better get out the boo-boo bunny. #
as long as the phillies don't bring in brad lidge for a 12 out save, they should win this game. #
look at me still up at 10:25, just like a 30 year old. #
Congrats to Mel Gibson and his girlfriend who had a baby last week. Mel was thrilled that she gave birth to happy, healthy, non-Jew. #
just ate two toaster waffles and i'm a better man for it. #
grabbing a pre-flight beer at Logan airport. #
on the plane to Portland! my first flight on Alaska Airlines, you betcha. #

note to self: don't forget to pack dongle for upcoming business trip. #
Scientists in Beijing made it snow by planting special chemicals into clouds. They said it was just like regular snow but with more MSG. #
the boner of the weekend award goes to brad lidge for not covering third base on the johnny damon steal. congrats, brad! #
my stomach has not yet gotten the memo about the time change. #
5:02pm and it's pitch black out. somehow i sense that al qaeda is to blame. either them or glenn beck. #

holy crap, i barely survived taking the kids trick or treating. i'm too old for this. home now drinking beer. #
phillies fans getting extra time to drink before the games starts. what could go wrong? #
my mom set her clocks back saturday morning. time to start getting price quotes for the old folks homes. #
10 years ago tomorrow our first child was born, which means it's been 10 years since i've been able to think straight. #
it's birthday present time for the new 10-year-old! #
note to self: next year don't weigh self the morning after halloween. #
the 10 year old's main birthday present: getting her ears pierced. i had to wait until i was 17. #
if i search for people using bing does that mean i've banged them? #

the kids are already insane and they haven't had any candy yet. adding extra valium to my coffee… #
ok, time to carve the pumpkin. best to work with sharp blades before the halloween drinking has started. #
almost time for a pre-trick or treating party down the street. my liver is ready. #

joe buck looks more like max headroom every year. #
coincidentally, i have the exact same hairdo as pedro martinez. #
the cat's bitching at me again. aren't pets supposed to be enjoyable? #
the only thing missing from the world series so far is a few more nike swooshes. well, that and a streaker. #
uh oh, pedro coughs up another dinger. might be time for him to throw yogi berra to the ground to get the fire back. #
Henry Louis Gates and James Crowley were spotted at a pub in Cambridge, having a drink. At this rate their next meeting will be in rehab. #
watch out – i'm in the zone! could also be gas. #
a certain someone in my household will be turning a certain age on sunday that rhymes with "zen." god help me. #
