Christmas decorating, Twitter caroling and laundry - I'm a multi-tasker!
This week @HelenatRandom came up with the fabulous idea of Twitter Caroling, which frankly took about two or three emails for me to grasp what the heck she was talking about -- I'm sort of dumb sometimes. Anyhoo, it was a great way to get into the Christmas spirit. Helen is like our random, cheery cruise director on the twitter. I even got serenaded by the beautiful, classic Christmas favorite, "Grandma got run over by a reindeer." Appropriate, don't you think?
Got my Christmas lights and yard art up, too. Overall a very productive week on and off the twitter.
So, here's the best of me (or not) on the twitter:
@sarahmsalter That's why I use symbols like @$$ (in reply to sarahmsalter @katdish I try to keep it rated-PG.)
@sarahmsalter Or a wise something... (in reply to sarahmsalter @billycoffey A search party to find baby Jesus... Well, that must make you a wise man. Or at least a wise guy.)
Yard art envy http://twitpic.com/rzydo
@JodyHedlund Yeah, hold out as long as you can. When my kids gave up naps I was like, "Well NOW when am I supposed to take a shower?"
@JodyHedlund Wait...your 4 year old still takes naps? Lucky!
@redclaydiaries Well, after the baby Jesus at McDonalds comment, I wouldn't be so sure.
@redclaydiaries Is there lightning in the greater Georgia area? Think I might stay inside if I were you...
@redclaydiaries Dang, you beat me to the breaking wind comment...
@PuriChristos Uh, huh...got my link didn't I? (in reply to PuriChristos For lazy people like @katdish you can get to NickGeek.com using this short url http://is.gd/5asvB)
@PuriChristos You should provide a link.
@kenworley It's sort of an ongoing conversation, Ken (in reply to kenworley @katdish are you talking to your-self again.)
Yesh! 2 loads away from completing the laundry! What's that?...Is everything folded and put away?...Oh, shut up.
@indymavs Good for you! I just pulled 4 paper towels, a gum wrapper & a pen out of one load of jeans. (in reply to indymavs @katdish mine are typically trash-free)
Oh, okay...So @prodigaljohn gets Little Drummer Boy, @stacyasmallSFL get Emmanuel, and I get Grandma got run over by a Reindeer? Nice...
@br8kthru You're like a weird combination of Michael Scott and Joey from "Friends".
Laundry Day Survey: Do all menfolk use their pockets as tiny trash receptacles, or is it just my household?
@bryanallain Today? Oh, enriching lives thru the power of social media and laundry. (in reply to bryanallain @katdish good morning to you as well. what's on tap for today?)
@stacyasmallSFL In ancient times did'st give the LawIn cloud, & majesty and awe. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.
Okay, my friends. I gotta get some sleep! Goodnight all! And goodnight @HerbieGookins, wherever you are!
@weightwhat Dang! I was trying to beat you to the TWSS!
@sarahmsalter TWSS
@sarahmsalter You're gonna hook up with Mr. Linky in the morning? And.....
RT @human3rror: Wow. Fire in the apple store. Kicked out by fire marshals. //WHAT DID YOU DO???
RT @weightwhat: Me thinks that @billycoffey doth protest too much. // I concur...
RT @billycoffey: Came home to find my wife playing the Kenny G Christmas CD. I suddenly hate this time of year
@weightwhat Sweat pants. (in reply to weightwhat I'm going to Sonic for the 1st time. Any recommendations?)
@HeatherSunseri Sorry. @helenatrandom was having TWS - twitter withdrawl syndrome. Not to be confused with TWSS.
This is a test.
@TAnneAdams Writers always see the glass half empty, huh? With a chip and a lipstick stain on the side.
RT @TAnneAdams: SO strange not have a word count hanging over your head. Although, I'm sure edits will find a fresh way to stress me out.
RT @kelli1227: Black Friday observation: wearing Crocs and a Snuggie at Macys after lunch is not cool. Really.
My weaknesses? Well, I oversleep and call in sick a lot. #NotToSayOnJobInterview
RT @InkPanther: I love starting fires. #NotToSayOnJobInterview
RT @marni71: Seriously! Who let's Bruce Springsteen record Christmas music? It sounds like he's having a colonoscopy when he sings...
RT @marni71: @katdish So now you're a lunch menu pharisee as well? // No, I just don't eat fish out of a can.
RT @marni71: @Helenatrandom I know! Spray cheese does sound good. Especially with @pagan43's potted meat and saltines. //VURP!
OMGoogle, what a geek: RT @PuriChristos: at 12:42 and 10 seconds my binary clock makes a really cool arrow pointing up.
@redclaydiaries Oh, don't worry. It's just my imaginary friend Steph trying to steal our yard art.( in reply to redclaydiaries RT @katdish: @redclaydiaries It would make baby Jesus happy. http://twitpic.com/rl778 //Mommy, what's that scary shadow on my curtains?)
And of course sweet baby Jesus. http://twitpic.com/rixat
Exhibit B http://twitpic.com/rix58
Exhibit A http://twitpic.com/rix1t
@marni71 I'm katdish. That's what I do... (in reply to marni71 @sarahmsalter I think it counts! Don't ask @katdish since she's being a Christmas decoration pharisee)
@marni71 Well don't hurt yourself going all out. (in reply to marni71 @katdish @redclaydiaries we're gonna put a green light bulb in the porch light and red ones in the landscape lights and calling it a day.)
@redclaydiaries Oh, you're just getting back from vacation. I'll sit in judgment of you mid-week.
@redclaydiaries Hey there Steph! Did you hear I already have my Christmas lights up?
@marni71 Shaddup... (in reply to marni71 @katdish Today is Monday. Did your kids miss school? Nice parenting...)
@marni71 I'm okay now. Last night I thought today was Monday. Kinda freaked me out.
Hello Twitter! Miss me? I've been putting up my Christmas lights and yard art so that I can sit in judgment of those of you who haven't.
My daughter gives my sister a Thanksgiving makeover. I am grateful my sister is not on the Twitter.
Clearly, the cows are terrified. http://twitpic.com/rc5zn
@JanetOber 6 months ago if you googled "katdish" I didn't show up for a few pages. Shameless self promotion is a rare and beautiful thing.
If you google "katdish" you will find a web designer by the same name. A fact that @peterpollock no doubt finds hilarious.
And again, sorry/you're welcome!

I just realized you don't talk to me on the twitter anymore. Don't make me fire you.
Phew, I thought for a moment there I wasn't going to make it onto the post but I snuck in there right at the end.
My Friday is not ruined, after all!
"random, cheery cruise director on the twitter. "
Thank you! I am sure that this little addition to my resume will get some attention when the time comes.
Holy freaking mackerel.
Is that seriously your yard? Why am I not surprised.
Annie -
No - not my yard - my neighbor's yard. Also referred to as Whoville.
Wow, those pics are just... wow. :)
You're funny, Katdish. The Michael Scott/Joey thing was hilarious.
Okay, the Mary and Joseph thing is freakin' me out. Look at the shadow - Looks like Joseph's about to stab Mary and she's begging for mercy. Or is it just me who sees that? I've gotta stop watching made for tv movies.
Thanks for stopping by my place, your blog is so clever and cool.
I've been here before and didn't realize I'd never returned. Glad to meet you again.
