This sketch has everything – lights, clown-core music, little girls in uncle fester makeup, sock people: http://geektastic.com/archives/790 #
The midwest chili was a little spicy today. #WorkCafeteriaReview #MyBoringLife #
Semi-annual street flooding in effect! We're stuck! No fire department rescuing us like those wimps in Lake Forest. Plz send cookies! #
Saw one of those huge 2-rotor helicopters flying around today. Did I mention my fear of huge 2-rotor helicopters? #
I just ousted @tamaramanges as the mayor of Potbelly Sandwich Shop on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/duJ0h1 #
Neighbors' grandkids are playing outside. The older girl is at the age when doing cartwheels for 2 hours seems fun/reasonable/not-impossible #

Review of Kashi All Natural frozen meal (southwest chicken): Pretty much as gross as regular frozen food, but with whole grains. Yay? #
Cinco de Mayo is the day Mexico invented the Margarita, right? #
I need to write a sketch using a recurring SNL character. Are there any that aren't terrible? #
I just became the mayor of el meson on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/5jClcj #

Hey @comcastcares Do you really need to call 3 times to confirm my service call? Less calling, more fixing will make me a happier customer. #
Also @comcastcares If you say you're going to call 30 min. before the appt, don't call 90 min. before because I might be in the shower. #
Internet problem diagnosed: "Yeah, that whole thing back there is hosed." FIX IT! #
Hey, The Weather Channel… Is a frost advisory rilly "severe weather" in Chicago? #
I know everyone missed the jokes… So here are a couple: http://geektastic.com/archives/718 #
Kurt is trending on Twitter. Thought it was because of C. Love on Letterman tonite but it's a character on Glee. 90's me just died a little. #
I should probably say that Comcast seems to have fixed my internet problem & everyone I dealt with was very nice-despite my bitching/moaning #
Every asshole who ever chanted 'Drill baby drill' should have to report to the Gulf coast today for cleanup duty // via @billmaher #
The good weather is seriously impeding my ability to belt out Kelly Clarkson songs on the car ride home. Gonna keep the windows open anyway. #
A new assignment, a new nightmare: http://geektastic.com/archives/778 #
Gossip Girl: Kenosha http://geektastic.com/archives/780 #

Hot. #
Home. At least there's no 4-inch bugs here. #
Flight home w/ the Houston Dynamo, MLS team on board – playing Chi Fire tomorrow. I don't care about soccer but the urge to boo was strong. #
They seem nice enough, though. #
No showings this weekend + vacation hangover + scraped knee/torn jeans. Today is shaping up to be a C-. #
Vince and Jay are talking about twitter. http://twitpic.com/1i8jeb #

Oh fabulous. The annual comcast Internet outtage has started early this year. I'm trying to work from home, dammit. #
Who needs Internet anyway? Working like it's 1989! Gonna print out a memo and make dittos. At least comcast doesn't make ditto machines! #
standing on Clark and Addison waiting for the bus. I don't understand the logic behind this ad: http://twitpic.com/1f7zkf #
Sketch idea: Drunk Homeless CTA Idol. #
Attending a meeting in Denver on Thurs/Fri with two VPs & only a handful of others. Need a list of convo topics so I don't embarrass myself. #
Whoever thought of the name for the Taco Bell "tortada" must be profoundly tortarded. #
playing email whack-a-mole. #
Holy crap. Air conditioning on my @unitedairlines plane is broken. 80 degrees on the Tarmac = 180 in this god forsaken winged oven. #
Great. Not only am I the only woman at the meeting – the gimmicky hotel put me on the "chick flick" themed floor. http://twitpic.com/1fuep1 #
yardwork done! Leaving for Costa Rica in about 9 hours… #
Limo comes at 3am for 5:30 flight. Probably don't need to get there 2 hrs early at that hour, but we're not taking chances. #rulefollower #
Good morning!?!!!? #
If you thought airline employees were grumpy in the middle of the day, you should see them at 4am. Don't they know we're going on vacation? #
I just unlocked the "JetSetter" badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/aTM88V #

Whose idea was it to have a holiday dedicated to candy? #
My first sketch! 2 Lloyds and a Bender: http://bit.ly/aPeqlC #
Let me know if you're the one eating tuna salad (and burnt popcorn?) at your desk, so I can go throw up in your cubicle. Thx. #
Did you seriously print out the email you sent me, bring it to my desk, and read it to me? Really? #ThisiswhyIhatepeople #
Just because you are confused by something does not mean it's confusing. #
Poplar Creek bike ride. 13 miles. My body is a machine! (runs on beer…) #
A game of Scrabble: http://geektastic.com/archives/703 #
Is there a doctor in the house? http://geektastic.com/archives/700 #

Stood next to a very tall man in the cafeteria line. Prob 6'7" at least. Couldn't shake the irrational fear that he would fall over on me. #
Whoever writes the Folgers TV ads is either 80 years old or somebody I want to punch in the face. http://bit.ly/cOTgii #
Bought a new iron at Target for $6.30. Not sure how many humanitarian and/or environmental catastrophes that includes. But I bet it's a lot! #
Summer heat and no leaves on the trees. Kind of post-apocalyptic, right? #
You don't have to stay here, but you can't go home. I want to leave work early but we have showings between 4-5 and 6-7. What should I do? #
When you are looking to buy a 2-bedroom townhouse for under $150K, how big do you *think* it's going to be? #
Wii bowling night with the parents. Girls are beating boys. http://twitpic.com/1d15kd #

Other things republicans want to start over on: 2009 election, civil war, rush limbaugh's new year's resolution to lose 40lbs. #hcr #
Tiny American flags for everyone! #hcr #
RT @PeterRoskam: Will Locke really let Sawyer leave the Island? #lost lol. My rep has interests outside of ragging on Democrats. #
Brake pads or brake pads & rotor resurfacing? Place your bets!!! #
Driving on bad brakes until Monday. This is how they get you to pay for the rotor-resurfacing, right? #
If you guessed, brake pads and NEW rotors, plus $500 of additional miscellaneous maintenance, you won the "Aimee's car care challenge." #
Now that I have new brakes, it's shockingly obvious that my old brakes were pretty much non-functional. #NotScaryAtAll #
I will be appreciating my town's dedicated public works professionals this May, even if @PeterRoskam doesn't: http://trunc.it/6noh1 ? #
The public works department is Socialism, right, @PeterRoskam? ? #
I just ousted @shawnbowers as the mayor of Donny's Skybox on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/c9ZL7h #
Physics people! The gravitational pull of my couch is 10x stronger than that of my laundry. This is Aimee's Theory of Relaxivity. #

I feel like I was *actually* KO'ed by King Hippo yesterday. #
Why does it seem like Irish people really embrace the negative stereotypes about themselves? Is it because they're always drunk? #
2 offers on the house in 3 weeks! First was too low; Next was 15K lower than that. In the poker game of real estate, I am losing badly. #
Antsy. #
Keep it classy, teabaggers RT @baratunde: Tea Party protesters yell "n**ger" at Rep. Lewis + "f**got" at Rep. Frank http://ping.fm/02vb0 #
Elgin friends! Bill Foster is still undecided on healthcare reform. Call him: http://j.mp/cypzFv (only if you support it tho, obvs.) :-) #

RT @markos: Rush will move to Costa Rica if #HCR passes. Where will he go when he discovers Costa Rica has … universal health insurance? #
Children trapped in classes taught by DRAG QUEENS? Sounds like a new reality show on Bravo. http://bit.ly/cI55mG #
Is that @Jason_Mc meeting with the Mayor of Des Plaines? http://www.dailyherald.com/story/image/?image=260980&id=365007 #
Middle eastern food day in the cafeteria. So, there's that. #
Someone just described one of my job responsibilities as "drivin' pipe." heheheh… #
Who else wants to move away? My busy social calendar will be so much easier to handle when all my friends move out of driving distance. :-( #
Um, so… It seems all of you Illini people have forsaken your jobs for the afternoon. Not me… I'm still drivin' pipe. #
Dear person who wants to view my house at 9am tomorrow: it takes 6-figures to get me out of bed that early on a saturday, so you better buy! #
I just became the mayor of The Egg Basket on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/bL3QzH #
I just unlocked the "Superstar" badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/aLbI5i #
If you ask me tomorrow why I'm walking weird, I will tell you I went running. But actually it's from playing Punch Out! on the Wii. #
