  • 11:34 Sadly, the internal MSFT position I was looking at is looking for Win dev experts who’ve dabbled in Cocoa. Not the other way around. #
  • 12:23 @charliecraig Also just watched United States of Tara. Fascinating. I want to see where they take the series. #
  • 12:24 @macosken Apologies that I won’t get to be your MacBU go toguy. Glad I could help start the ball rolling at least. #

  • 19:15 @charliecraig Thank you for bringing Eureka Unscripted back. Looking forwards to the new season! #
  • 21:58 I must remember to NEVER read DailyKos. I keep forgetting that one blog could turn me conservative republican just by reading it. *shudder* #

We have an iPod for the boy for bed time.

It has a selection of going to bed music. Recently H added some new music to the list. About 20 songs.

Aiden’s bed time has been coming more swiftly. For example tonight he’s down in under 8 minutes and BEFORE 8 pm. (Honestly, I have no clue what to do with myself.) (Note: 8:05.. he’s back up)

To keep myself sane while sitting with him… I bring my iPhone. Sometimes I log into IM to give H reports on how he’s doing. Tonight I noted a new song on the list. It was an old celtic tune that I knew fairly well from a film.

The IM Conversation went as such:
Me: Where did you find music from “The Wicker Man?”
jnanacandra:It’s not the version from the film. It’s an old celtic tune
Me: I know…but.. NICE!
H: If you listen the words are slightly different
(I had no choice but one response)
Me: I noticed she sang al nflygh chloch mallyf in the third verse instead of nflgh chlach mollffyl. I always thought the film got the declension wrong.
(Pause from H)
H: HAHAHAHAHAHA
