“The California Supreme Court announced today that it will hear oral arguments on Thursday, March 5, 2009 in the Proposition 8 legal challenge. The National Center for Lesbian Rights, Lambda Legal, and the ACLU—with support from civil rights groups, religious organizations, labor unions, and legal scholars—argue that Proposition 8 is invalid because the people of California have established strict safeguards that prohibit the underlying principles of the California Constitution from being changed by a simple majority vote. By taking away a right only from one group, Proposition 8 violates the most basic principle of our government: that all people are entitled to equal treatment under the law.”

Get ready for more posts…

I’m going to be posting a lot more now, because I integrated Tumblr into WordPress. That is, if it works well. We will see!

Expect the content to continue to vary from just gaming and be about most anything I find interesting on the web. Rad.

	12:57pm	Updated status on Facebook Status. Tami scheduled the movers for Feb 21! Anyone know anything about paint? Need to decide on colors…
	6:37pm	Posted 29 tweets on Twitter. (Show Details) @krmaxwell What is your username on MP again? @missdoomcookie Try out Digsby instead. Based on Pidgin, supports all the social networks too (including Twitter, Facebook, etc.) It’s 80 degrees out today, but I have so much work to do that I’m glad I’m here instead of out there. Holy shit…Bonnaroo lineup is fan-freaking-tastic. http://bit.ly/16DXoq I don’t think there is one act there I don’t want to see… I’m playing around with Windows 7 beta. So far, I think it’s a downgrade from my Ubuntu install. Anyone know a good place to get cheap moving boxes in San Diego? Need to start thinking about packing… @hallower1980 The father of the Kochel system, duh! Or compositions (since he has 626 of them) Or the best Requiem ever…. The real Bonarroo lineup leaked from TVoTR – http://bit.ly/K6RQ @tompl Yeah, sorry – I meant for hardcore tweeters.

Checking out Addict-O-Matic – need way to keep track of your company’s brand. http://bit.ly/3Sci @samhouston Whole Foods is fantastic. Freshest ingredients, amazing deli, organic & natural foods. It’s worth the money. @hawtspot I think it was a fake. I deleted my tweet. @hallower1980 Most people don’t use the web interface. Get a good client like Tweetdeck or Twhirl and you’ll love life @mailchimp OMG I got my t-shirt!!!! Unfortunately, the large is TINY. =( Definitely not fitting into it =( @samhouston Rockin some Animal Collective today. Shearwater is next. @pasmith Don’t worry, it doesn’t take up tester spots:)

Man, Mozart’s Requiem is so epic…I work so much better when listening to classical. @samhouston Google Alerts! @Scopique Nothx!! =P @onyxraven We’re working on a solution that should allow you to access Metaplace through firewalls, corporate ones may still be tricky. @GZ_Drama Oh my gosh, really? Good luck!!!! @owlchick Hehe Twitter is more of a conversation than Facebook statuses. People direct the messages at you for replying! @GZ_Drama Tweetdeck is made powerful by the columns and search queries and group functionality. That’s why it’s rad for power tweeters. Writing up the newsletter now, some interesting stuff in it this week! Oh Santa Ana winds, why does the nice warm weather you bring also give me a pounding headache…? =( Heading off to go sign the ‘offer of rent’ for the loft! Down to 2 weeks and 3 days until it’s ours! @wiqdintentionz Yep – if you go to your world profile, then click "edit world profile" you should see "delete world" in the menu.

Moving…again!

Yeah yeah, so I sort of have a “1 year or less per residence” thing going on, but I’m fixing to break it this time with this one! Now that my lease on my original San Diego apartment is up and Luke and I can spend our money on just 1 place per month instead of 2, we’ve decided to really pick a good one this time.

We’re moving into a loft in Banker’s Hill, biking distance from downtown and the bay, walking distance to Hillcrest, across the street from Balboa Park and the zoo, and close to hundreds of fantastic restaurant. Here’s some pictures – keep in mind the furniture is not ours in the picture and we’ll be painting it in the next few weeks. We’ll be moving in by the end of next month, but there is lots to do before then! Most of our furniture needs upgrading, and we’ll be hiring movers this time. Here are the pics!

Feel free to recommend paint colors!

Let me know if you want to get together at some point @Elora This one isn’ t bad. He’s young, kinda cute, and is polite and clean. Hehe @Baketron there isn’t really a such thing as tweeting too much. If you’re not interested in the content of their tweets, don’t follow them! Waiting at home for the plumber to show up…trying to do some work from home before he gets here. @TomMcGarry About 10k or so in the past week and a half. And I could have been trying harder… RT @akilh: Best Traffic Alert: http://tinyurl.com/c2s3nw Haha Zombies! @timothyp I’m confused. Are you saying people don’t use the Gmail website? Everyone I know still does.. Posterous update allows you to control which blogs your posts go to if you have multiple – a feature request of mine! http://bit.ly/qaQQ @techcrunch Always thought you guys were a class act. It’s sad what you have to go through. Enjoy your break Michael! http://bit.ly/HV8h @_Aether_ I think you can adjust those settings in Tweetdeck. I put DMs really low on priority because I get an email, and moved replies up. RT @metaplace: Want to join the Metaplace Beta? Visit www.metaplace.com and enter the invite key "MPWELCOME" – limited spots available! @Dlangar Use Delicious, it has saved my life. Just search tags instead of dealing with folders @TomMcGarry So it does vary server-by-server. Check how many pages of glyphs are sold on your AH. Mine is generally 18-23 pages. @Baketron Feb 15th it’s ours, but we’re painting it that weekend, and moving in the weekend after @susanwu Me? Wow! @neilhimself OMG is she on Twitter? I always liked her Checking out deadlineapp.com – dead simple task list application with SMS support.

Apparently the game can’t communicate out to the web. =( @TomMcGarry And I had a ton of mats saved from making Darkmoon cards, so all my sales were free money basically @Baketron Oh heck no. Going to buy a couch first, and then figure it out Lots to decide…

	9:15am	Updated status on Facebook Status. Tami is looking at the shipping confirmation in her inbox for the SNUGGIE!
	2:05pm	Updated status on Facebook Status. Tami and Luke GOT THE LOFT!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!!!
	3:39pm	Posted 2 notes on Tumblr. (Show Details) We were approved for this loft today. Move-in date is Feb 15th. … Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles releases policy change for changing gender markers
	4:54pm	Posted 25 tweets on Twitter. (Show Details) Off to a focus test for 2 hours, stay classy Twitter! @pasmith I know =( Unfortunately I didn’t see that until after I’d bought mine online. =( Drum roll please…..WE GOT THE LOFT!!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!! In my Gmail today: SNUGGIE Order Shipment Confirmation!! @tompl Oh no, that’s not what I meant! I know you weren’t calling me malicious @pasmith I think it’s totally okay! Thanks! I’m getting so impatient. I want to know if we were approved for the loft…. @brinstar Seriously. And I can’t believe Shane and Jenny are now..UGH, I can’t even type it. UGH. Shane deserves better! @ityktatt That is a rite of passage! @sanspants I refer to mine as a character. Sometimes I say toon, but not usually. Never say avatar in an MMO but I do in SL and other VW’s RT @samhouston: Some pretty useful info on how to Unswamp your Twitter feed http://bit.ly/qj7k Helpful to those that follow me on Twitter @kevinrose Is there a tool that allows you to look up a user and follow everyone they follow? Probably not, but thought I’d check @hawtspot Yea! It look like 7 weeks =P @dlmcgraw You saw the pics I linked right? http://bit.ly/Dadxf We’ll take plenty when we move in and start decorating. Thanks for all the grat’zes everyone @tompl Hey you can still send those! No, I haven’t found anything yet. I’ve been told that I tweet too much. Here’s the thing – when you have as many followers/ees as I do, there’s a lot of replying to be done! People who take two bowls so that they can use one to smash their meat down in the other to fit more at Mongolian BBQS – pet peeve of mine. @dlmcgraw Don’t say that! Then if I’m not approved I’ll have gotten my hopes all up!! =( @Scopique Happy birthday Scop!! @Baketron Just use a Twitter client like TweetDeck that allows you to make groups. Then you use one account but make a "Friends" group @tcsg_darren A year ago, but we were juggling rents on two places. Now we just want one awesome place @tompl I actually don’t want to use it maliciously…I have a legit reason!! Anyone know if there is a service that allows you to look up a Twitter user and follow everyone they’re following? @Cheston I ordered mine 3 days after Christmas, this has taken FOREVER.
