• @WeatherZach Hah! Marching band has been practicing at 7am for 2 weeks now. Who's the most dedicated? (son in drum line, can you tell?) in reply to WeatherZach #
• @sirexkat I've never noticed it flashing (and I spend *hours* staring at it…) Now that you mention it, though, I may just be used to it… in reply to sirexkat #
• Reading http://bit.ly/9Ir526 – Twitter followers without the "hassle" of Twitter accounts. Interesting stuff – and useful, too! #
• My iPad is in the FedEx facility in Hong Kong. I'm not sure how I feel about it being better traveled than I am… #waitingimpatiently #

• My iPad is in Missouri!!! I may have it for the weekend!! Squee!!! #iPad #impatientlywaiting #refreshingFedExTrackingPageLikeAnIdiot #
• @lilaclee 32G Wi-Fi+3G It's going to be one more silly monthly payment to get the 3G service, but spotty wi-fi coverage in MO means 3G too! #
• My iPad's in Jefferson City! It could be delivered today!! I forsee nothing much getting done today… #
• Also, if the AARP doesn't stop emailing me, I'm gonna get a complex. I'm 37, far too young to be dealing with this stuff, right? #oldfart #
• The #iPad is on the truck for delivery. I have turned into a F5 pressing machine. I'll have to take a break to fix wireless in Linn, tho. #
• I have it – it's charging up as I type!! #iPad #
• @bohyunkim Thanks! I feel so silly being so excited about a device, but it's amazing how the process of waiting sharpened that excitement… in reply to bohyunkim #
• @sglassmeyer I've seen that before, but I can't figure out a use, either. in reply to sglassmeyer #
• @lilaclee it came fully charged, but took a while to sync to iTunes, very easy to setup, WAY FUN, very easy to get apps – and LOTS to get!! in reply to lilaclee #
• @DonovanLambrigh We're in the same process – I'm just glad I don't have to make all those decisions, just help implement them! #mrrl in reply to DonovanLambrigh #
• I showed the boss RDP on the iPad and he called it my new "tooloy" – more useful than a toy, but more fun than a tool… #
• @lilaclee Both – cover that props up and the keyboard dock. I got the extra warranty, too, but that was it. in reply to lilaclee #
• LOL – my left forearm and bicep are starting to ache a bit from the way I hold the iPad. I need to switch hands or I'll be uneven… #
• @dullroar Will do! in reply to dullroar #
• @brayb You'd think, wouldn't you. Of course, that would just add more weight, probably. #

• Heading home so that I can be all sick in my own bed. Hopefully my tummy will stop hating me soon… #
