Not just a story...

00:25 @franniepants smiling's my favorite! #

00:27 Edit: Motel 6 is so underrated. Man, this place is great - clean, pet-friendly, cheap, and most importantly: a place to SLEEP! #fb #

07:50 Ok, well, I am not so hot on the paper-thin walls and loud plumbing, but hey, it's only $50. Hahaha #fb #

11:41 We're somewhere on the 5 fwy. L: tinyurl.com/y925bo8 #fb #

13:14 At In N Out in Santa Clarita. This split drive is painless compared to hauling for 8ish hours straight. #fb #

14:49 Ah, so good to be home and to find that our alarm going off on Thursday was apparently due to a glitch. God only knows what happened. #fb #

19:25 Ok, I have to give it to you, fake tree lovers. I kinda wish I could put my tree up NOW. Gotta wait for my real live Noble Fir though. #

20:14 @SarahLeon79 Hmm... wonder if they have Nobles. As far as I know it's downright impossible to grow those in So Cal. #

20:15 @BeccaG lol, nah, it's just cause it's Sunday night. We've been getting our tree at Target the past few years, they're at least open til 9 #

20:40 I know it's weird, but I enjoy the smell of burnt dust the first few times I turn on the heat. Reminds me of the beginning of the season. :) #

21:47 I still just can't get over how cute it was to be awakened from my nap by my favorite paw being gently stretched on my cheek. Adorable! #fb #

22:44 I love good gifts from attentive people, like seasons 1&2 of 30Rock after I wondered if it would be on sale this morning. Thanks, sis! #fb #

09:07 I can't believe it's already Saturday and we have to start the long trek home this evening. Hope Aaron is up for pushing the envelope. #fb #

10:29 @franniepants booooo #

13:43 My little sister is a rock star. Love it! twitpic.com/rcwvt #fb #

18:31 @maggisaar um, don't know if u realize, Thanksgiving weekend is busiest travel weekend of the year. ;) #

20:56 On our way home, and so very glad we are splitting the drive (though I'd rather be staying up playing board games tonight with the fam) #fb #

20:56 @BeccaG what? That's an outrage! Lol #

20:57 @maggisaar oh yeah, I forgot it was Saturday. We're heading out tonight so it feels like Sunday #

09:33 Opted to stay in bed instead of venturing out with my sister and brother at 3:30am. Kinda sad, but it was probably best to get sleeeep. #fb #

18:24 @BeccaG there should just be an app for google talk preinstalled #

22:16 @Sessa2u go to the doctor!!!! Ps I got seasons 1 & 2 of 30Rock from my sister for my bday! :) #

13:10 Watching the new Star Trek with my lap-dog. twitpic.com/r2776 #

14:31 Today I'm thankful for friends, stereotypical small towns, my unique family, my hubby, my dog, my house, and baby Isaac. Life is grand. #fb #

00:23 Almost there... at least we should be in by 1am. Soooooooo tired! #fb #

11:39 @welovethebart keepass, my friend #

15:44 Girl time at the movies with my sisters and my cousin... waiting for New Moon to start (and yes, this is my first time seeing it!) #fb #

21:44 So THAT'S what all this Dr. Who hoopla is about. What a fun show! #fb #

07:38 Good thing I didn't have to sleep well last night in order to save my life cause this tweet would be coming to you from "the other side" #fb #

08:28 @franniepants oooo, exciting! #

09:25 @Sessa2u don't you make fun of Kelly!!!! Hahaha #

13:26 Waiting for Aaron to get home with lunch and a full tank of gas so we can head out. #fb #

17:07 @welovethebart what? I thought Macs never had problems. :P #

20:44 @Li77ieJ you are adorable #

20:45 261 down, 254 to go. #fb #

21:19 @BeccaG same applies in hawaii. Just quick breakfast food and some snacks would be plenty #

10:09 Every minut past your appointment time in which you are required to have a full bladder feels like a decade! Come on, call meeeeee #

11:13 @BeccaG yup #

11:13 @leviweaver you don't sync with google contacts? #

12:08 @SarahLeon79 yep #

12:10 Okay, the big question has been answered and will soon be revealed. Anyone wanna guess? Winners gets a self-addressed pat on the back. #fb #

13:11 @Sessa2u couldn't do it with being emotional. This thing we're doing instead is more fun anyway #

13:11 @leviweaver boooo! That is just evil. #

15:50 @Sessa2u you'll see. ;) #

17:51 @franniepants hmm, you underestimate my ability to keep my info to myself. We'll see. #

18:56 @Sessa2u ugh, I hope you don't have swine flu!!! better go to Dr. Leoni! #

19:03 Drumroll please... tinyurl.com/ydxwz3p #fb #

21:37 @franniepants I still maintain I wouldn't have spilled the proverbial beans, but logic worked in ur favor this time. ;) I'll buy u a coffee #

23:36 I have officially crossed over from preggo oddity to preggo crazy. I just cried over being hungry and needing Aaron to go get me something. #

23:59 @Sessa2u and it was too late, I threw up anyway. Dang it!!! #

10:07 @maggisaar so I had a dream last night that I came and did temp work @ your company, only they were in the pie business instead of textbooks #

15:45 @BeccaG Saw a sign for pretzels in NYC that said "Pretzrls." I thought it was some special kind of pretzel roll for 1/2 a second. Have fun! #

17:53 @Sessa2u aw, aren't they great? :) #

20:08 @Sessa2u huh? #

13:11 @franniepants and I would forever refer to that as Franning. #

18:07 At a wedding for one of Aaron's fellow English teachers. Intelligent conversation abounds. :) #fb #

19:47 The only downside to being at a wedding less than a minute from your home (Etiwanda Gardens) is the gravitational pull calling you back. #fb #

20:20 @welovethebart and the Ford truck commercials, he's loaded! #

20:55 @welovethebart hahaha, I'm punny and I don't even know it! #

23:28 Stellar birthday. Thanks to everyone who made me feel SO loved, it never ceases to amaze me that I have such awesome friends & family. #fb #

07:12 It still doesn't "feel" like November to me. I hope my brain catches up with the calendar in time to enjoy the Christmas season! #fb #

07:17 @PharestOfAll what the what??? I don't understand how this happened. #

08:47 @cuteculturechic Wow! Remind me to go to you to book my next vacay! #

13:30 @welovethebart Oh, I want a root beer float! haha #

13:58 I CAN HAVE THAI ICED TEA!!! And there was much rejoicing. Hip-hip-hooray! I'mago get a biggun' tonight from the drive-thru in Upland! Yesss! #

14:09 @maggisaar thanks! #

15:07 @evilted just shows how badly she needs a vacation. ;) #

16:20 It's amazing what a volunteer and a (slightly) clean(er) workspace can do for your stress level and perceived ability to "git 'er done". #fb #

07:28 What's that, Day? Get up and eat breakfast, then come back to my warm bed? Well, ok, but only if I have to go to Disneyland later! Yay! #fb #

08:42 @evilted Thanks! :) #

08:59 @BeccaG just looked at Aaron's paystub, we don't pay anything for Blue Cross. :) #

09:20 @franniepants Yes m'am! I am holding at 29 as of today. hahaha #

07:16 Had a dream I tried to put our dog in a carseat, one of the little newborn ones. That's what I get for calling her my furbaby. Cuckoo! #fb #

13:03 @PharestOfAll Sorry Darlene, but he's pretty much Scout with a magic talking collar, "I was hiding under your porch because I love you" ;) #

13:11 @PharestOfAll Ouch! A little quick with the so's your face, burn is right! ;) #

13:12 @misscambria hahahaha, the foaming mouth is a nice visual. #

14:43 @BeccaG We have Anthem Blue Cross HMO and it's really not that bad. I at least never have to wait 45 minutes past my appt or in the rm #

14:44 @BeccaG Only downside vs Kaiser is having to drive to other offices to get labs done, etc. So foreign to me as a lifelong Kaiser patient #

14:47 @BeccaG I don't think so, but there's just 2 of us so... I thought our the employee contribution was the same if not REALLY close to Kaiser #

16:02 Sometimes reply all is a necessary annoyance. But sometimes people pick too many groups for the initial email, that's where it gets uggo #

16:47 I wish the desk fairy would come and do all of my filing (correctly) and clean up my deskplosion for me while I'm gone tomorrow. *sigh* #

13:00 RT Our path was much shorter, but I still relate @evilted: Great read from Relevant Magazine founder @cameronstrang bit.ly/1fgjQD #fb #

14:34 @plumblossoms It's gonna be awesome! :) & there's a 99% probability that it won't be crowded. a weekday in November is the perfect day to go #

14:35 @maggisaar aw, wish you could tag along! boo to work, responsibility, money, etc! #

14:38 I want (need?) a new pair of chucks. Mine have... personality. Which was cool in college, but now I want a pair of grown up chucks. ha. #fb #

14:41 @maggisaar yeah, it's my birthday celebration of choice. if it makes you feel any better, I can't go on most of my favorite rides? ;) #

14:53 @maggisaar yes m'am. I've been wanting to do that anyway ever since I read your blog about it. #

16:50 I heart Wufoo. I really, truly do. #

18:46 My love for homemade chili and homemade (sorta, from the Jiff box) cornbread knows no bounds. #

20:12 @Sessa2u oh, really??? Where??? #

21:13 Wow, is it just me or do the guys on #biggestloser look horrible after their makeovers??? #fb #

21:35 @franniepants my standard answer: google it. ;) #

21:57 I officially don't like Rudy as far as #biggestloser is concerned. What a punk. #fb #

22:11 @evilted and there was much rejoicing!!! I do love my phone, so! Hahaha #

11:20 @franniepants Whoops? Google map-app or GPS fail you? #

12:24 Hahaha, probably 98% accurate. RT @maggisaar: 2012 as told via Twitter. Awesome. bit.ly/2wlwEE #

12:40 @imogenheap I LOVE that song. Touched me so deeply in a very hard time! :) #

13:51 We bought U2's No Line on the Horizon in Maui on the day we drove the road to Hana. Now when I hear it I am taken back to paradise. <3 #fb #

00:21 Thankfully the pup is okay, worth the $66 for peace of mind and sleep. Well, that and her barking at giant dog topiary in front of vet. #fb #

08:08 @Sessa2u she was choking on something when we got home and had trouble breathing for like 20 mins after that. It was scary! #

10:28 @Sessa2u we still aren't sure, maybe a sticker/weed from the back yard. #

10:30 Wow! First time I've slept til 10am since August! Of course, I did stay up until 1am... oh well, I'll take it! #fb #

19:52 @franniepants and @welovethebart LITERALLY LOL. #

19:53 @franniepants Ugh, the Disney plans for Thurs are screwy, but at least Lori & I will be there so come after work!!! #

08:42 At a craft fair with my mom and dad in Lytle Creek, hope she kicks butt and takes names! twitpic.com/phwvm #fb #

12:44 @franniepants oooooo, he's in trouble! #

19:14 @SarahLeon79 Sounds awesome! I love that movie. #

19:14 @JillianRaeS Oh, that movie was adorable! where do you work again, girl? I always forget after Britt tells me. ;) #

07:14 @SarahLeon79 in search of the $3 toaster or the $246 LCD TV? ;) #

10:00 @maggisaar I love the addition of being able to report users as spam. Awesome. #

10:29 @cuteculturechic sorry, not familiar with UT county. But how was the show? :) #

11:17 @maggisaar Have many pairs of gloves like that, it gets cold here, too. #

08:21 @maggisaar I'm surprised they let you in with your camera phone. In Rancho you can't bring it in. #

09:46 @maggisaar meanie. #

11:51 Smiled at an old man at the bank, and he smiled back with one of the most beautiful smiles I've ever seen! Can I put him in my pocket? #fb #

13:46 @leviweaver Yeah, that was pretty awful. I think the word I'm looking for is "petulant". #

14:30 @maggisaar Speaking of tea, I broke down and had thai iced tea today. can't find a blasted thing on the net about how much caffeine it has #

15:07 @JillianRaeS you could always try an apron... #

16:06 Muwahaha! It's so fun spying on the front office via webcam. :) And scaring people by telling them that I see what they're doing. #fb #

16:07 @BeccaG oh no! is she a NM friend? hey, can you call me re: your text message? :) #

22:13 @wailinglist Well, at least they nodded to him in The Prestige. haha #

22:14 @maggisaar Kinda looks like a younger saner Joaquin Phoenix. #

22:19 Okay, today's Natalie Dee comic just made me laugh so hard I cried. Hope it brings you a good hahahaha moment. tinyurl.com/yjjcg89 #

11:23 @franniepants sleep and recover from Monday night! lol, I wish I had today off to do just that! #

14:10 @roxannerosas If you don't get shave ice from that guy you will regret it. In fact, we are sad because we missed 2 potential days of it. ;) #

15:29 I honestly wonder if Blazin' Buffalo Wing pringles weren't made with me in mind. Mmm! Wonder how they'd taste with some ranch... #fb #

16:55 WARNING! The following may be hazardous to your productivity: Copy machine issues, being a perfectionist, and being overly tech-savvy. #fb #

20:54 @maggisaar hahaha, yeah, I wish! I know it's either Jen or Laura but I don't know which one I want to see go! #

20:57 @maggisaar yay! Love her! #

22:09 @cuteculturechic have fun, she was great on Monday! Should be even more prepared this time, too. ;) @imogenheap #

22:14 @Sessa2u eeeeeewwwwwwwwwww! #

22:17 @Sessa2u it would also make a great gift for auntie alicia and uncle nick... hmm! #

00:15 Yes, she played Wait It Out. Yes, I actually cried. A rolling tear. Beautiful. #fb #

08:46 I don't even want to think about how much @franniepants had to be hurting this morning. I've been awake since 7am and it's painful. lol #fb #

10:49 @Trakandrose hahahaha, that's awesome #

11:54 @welovethebart Yeah, I don't see how you could work without 2. At all. #

11:55 @evilted twitpic.com/p0usl - Luuuuuuuuuuuuuucky! #

13:15 @welovethebart but then it's only 99 cents to continue listening for unlimited hours once you're done with the 40. Not too bad, IMO #

13:16 @imogenheap GREAT show last night! :) Thanks for pushing yourself through the throat issues! #

13:34 @timexile Wow, man! Great show last night, it was so awesome to see you create like that. Keep up the good work! :) #

13:41 @maggisaar you can make word easily do Sentence Case capitalization. Do a find and replace for all .'s and !!! to ! #

14:00 @maggisaar oh, I thought it was for one vendor. you could copy paste it into word and then bring it back in all beautified. ;) good luck. #

16:19 @roxannerosas Go get a cheeseburger at Cheeseburger in Paradise in Lahaina. Then go next door for shave ice @ the place by the wooden boats! #

19:42 @misscambria congrats!!! I expect details, lady! #

21:02 Dear #biggestloser, your product placement is RIDiculous. Shameful, even. But at least it makes me laugh. #fb #
