AT&T should not be allowed to send me an email with 'Your iPhone' in the subject if it isn't followed by 'has shipped.' #
I'm at Mizu Sushi (10129 Brookpark Rd, Parma). http://4sq.com/cbk0YQ #
Now that AT&T is shipping iPhones, I shall obsessively reload my order status page until it changes. #
Well my AT&T order is still 'in progress', but I have a UPS tracking number. I'll take that as a positive sign. #
@aschulak it's shipping next day from Memphis, so there's still time for yours. in reply to aschulak #
@aschulak I'm sure they'd have no problem handing it over to some guy from Cleveland who shows up at the warehouse in Memphis. in reply to aschulak #
Woot! Shiny new iPhone is out for delivery. #
This is going to be one of those days when UPS doesn't deliver to my house until 7:00, isn't it? #
@iamamish Precious is indeed on its way. UPS likes to be unreliable here; they show up anytime between 11am and 7pm. in reply to iamamish #
@aschulak well at least I know where to go to visit it then. in reply to aschulak #
So it turns out UPS doesn't even require a signature (or bother to knock). http://yfrog.com/87fufbj #
Loving the new iPhone so far. Great feel and very pretty screen (still feel the need for a screen protector though). #
I'm at Angelo's Pizza (13715 Madison Ave, Lakewood). http://4sq.com/7fcM2w #
@mcrute absolutely. I'm going to move to the alps, join a monastery, and spend my days worshipping its beauty. in reply to mcrute #
@aschulak woot! Good luck! in reply to aschulak #
This "Invisible Shield" seems to fail on the invisible count, but it'll do for the back of the phone for now. #
Really Apple? You don't even want to give me the camera type in the EXIF info? #
@aaron_oliver we do tend to overuse dojo.hitch in cases where setting the context is the better option. in reply to aaron_oliver #
I'm at Winking Lizard Tavern w/ @aschulak. http://4sq.com/55Ca9D #
I'm at Crocker Park (25 Main Street, Crocker Park Blvd, Westlake). http://4sq.com/oFmbF #
Poor schmucks. It would be rude to walk up and down the line waving my day-old iPhone 4, right? http://yfrog.com/7dbpmfoj #
@mcrute do have the issue, but after @aschulak's experience will wait to get a bumper. in reply to mcrute #
Forced to march in time as I walk past the high school band practice. #
I'm at Winking Lizard Tavern (14018 Detroit Ave, Lakewood). http://4sq.com/55Ca9D #
I'm at Dragonfly Lounge (1865 W 25th, Cleveland). http://4sq.com/bNN7wp #
@Aquamindy @mhebrank yeah I'll be there. Assuming I can wake up in time. in reply to Aquamindy #
@Aquamindy thanks but think I'll manage on my own somehow. in reply to Aquamindy #
@Aquamindy @mhebrank save me a seat. I'll be there but probably closer to 1:00. in reply to Aquamindy #
@mpirnat @mhebrank awesome on my way now. in reply to mpirnat #
I'm at The Pub Rocky River (19304 Detroit Road, Rocky River, OH 44116, Rocky River). http://4sq.com/6EocqP #

@iamamish heat index is actually closer to 82 with the 52% relative humidity. in reply to iamamish #
Is it really that hard to use reflexive pronouns properly and to realize that misusing them to sound smart seriously backfires? #
Think I'll use the Alot as inspiration and assume people who misuse 'myself' suffer from dissociative identity disorder http://is.gd/cPenn #
ran 3.2 mi on 6/14/2010 at 9:06 PM!

@aschulak lucky you; AT&T and Apple both still hate me. in reply to aschulak #
Huh who would have guessed…AT&T wins the race to take my money. #
Made the mistake of listening to the music from Tetris for the Game Boy earlier. Now it will not leave my head. #
Beautiful night for a game though I really need my sunglasses http://yfrog.com/08jx9qj #
Brain completely fried by late night JavaScript and presentation session with @mpirnat. #
Should have taken the shoreway… #
Much better view than my cube walls http://yfrog.com/11qzsyj #
@mpirnat agreed. Very happy with today's session. And now I'll sleep for two days. in reply to mpirnat #
I'm at Flying Fig w/ @aschulak. http://4sq.com/1skADs #
@Aquamindy @mpirnat nah after Bob fell off, we figured one casualty was enough. in reply to Aquamindy #
I'm at Light Bistro w/ @aschulak. http://4sq.com/5Cnxcs #
I'm at Dragonfly Lounge w/ @aschulak. http://4sq.com/bNN7wp #
I'm at ABC the Tavern (1872 W 25th St, Bridge Ave., Cleveland). http://4sq.com/875Rnq #
I just unlocked the "Crunked" badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/bI4WoK #
I'm at McNultys Bier Markt (1948 West 25th Street, Cleveland). http://4sq.com/cztR27 #
@mpirnat foursquare AT&T and twitter didn't want to cooperate. in reply to mpirnat #
@davenoyes hey @mpirnat wasn't the only one successful :p in reply to davenoyes #
Home after long but successful day. Props to @mpirnat for awesome co-presenting and Keynote ninjaing and @mcrute for awesome tech support. #
And props to @aschulak for awesome drinks and helping to earn my Crunked badge. #
And also thanks to @JulieCousins for organizational duties and food procurement even though she needs to learn to embrace twitter. #
@aschulak wish I'd know. Would have gladly given you a lift home. in reply to aschulak #
Feeling the itch to buy a new toy even though my new iPhone might be coming next week; need some instant gratification. #
@mpirnat now that you mention it… might be able to use one to boost the signal getting to the bedroom. in reply to mpirnat #
@Aquamindy I'm sure it'd help there too. You know, ubiquitous computing and all that. in reply to Aquamindy #
Well not quite what I had in mind for a new toy, but picked up Green Day Rock Band. At least I didn't leave the store empty handed. #
@mpirnat think I could be up for some socializing tonight. in reply to mpirnat #

@mpirnat change the background — http://is.gd/cK9nX in reply to mpirnat #
OK birth certificate obtained, driver's license copied, passport application filled out. Now I just need a decent photo. #
@Aquamindy nowhere just yet. Mostly just want the option to leave the country then I can start thinking about destinations. in reply to Aquamindy #
OH "I can totally handle Mike's wood." #
I have relented and turned on the AC. #

I'm at David Burke's Primehouse (616 N. Rush St., Chicago). http://4sq.com/4Qlp5Z #
Looking at a 2 hour delay (so far) out of ORD. Should be a fun afternoon. #
http://yfrog.com/jnh97j #
Well there's the first group of poor bastards who aren't making it back to CLE tonight http://yfrog.com/6dkmcj #
OK then. One more night in Chicago. #
@Aquamindy unfortunately I already had an extra day of laziness at home planned. Now I'm going to have to go directly back to work. in reply to Aquamindy #
@aschulak Wed off may be needed. If I'm lucky, I'll get home about 8:00 tomorrow night. @mpirnat @bikegriffith #
So is Frontera open Memorial Day night? #
@Aquamindy yeah if only I'd known that 5 hours ago while I still had the rental car an the will to live. in reply to Aquamindy #
I'm at The Capital Grille (5340 North River Road, Balmoral Ave, Rosemont). http://4sq.com/53zRXf #
@aschulak not sure I could survive waking up for a 6am flight after today. in reply to aschulak #
Feeling much better after too much food and several drinks (including the free one from awesome bartender Michelle @ Capital Grille) #
Woot exit row seat 12A tomorrow! #
@Aquamindy small victories. And actually the flight departs (theoretically) at 5:45. I just don't get home until 8:00. in reply to Aquamindy #
Wasting time waiting for my flight seeing Iron Man 2. #
So the check-in kiosk tried to offer me a $100 voucher to switch flights because my flight may be over-booked. #
I'm at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) (10000 Bessie Coleman Dr., Chicago) w/ 47 others. http://4sq.com/1ToZTm #
@Aquamindy didn't look at the options, but judging by the long standby list for the 4:00 probably later. Not worth it for $100. in reply to Aquamindy #
I just unlocked the "Swarm" badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/cOavRm #
Finally on a plane and ready to head home. http://yfrog.com/5opwevj #
Hello again CLE. #
ran 3.29 mi on 6/1/2010 at 11:55 AM with a pace of 9'07"/mi
http://go.nike.com/20qc049 #
@mpirnat thanks. Thought it turned out well though may not show the true depth of my relief at going home and dread of work in the morning. in reply to mpirnat #
So very tired, but must finish laundry. Also I don't want to go to work tomorrow. #
@Aquamindy you know I just might have picked something up on the plane. in reply to Aquamindy #
Only a few hundred more emails to get through… #
Annoying original hotel in Madison is trying to charge me $180 despite cancelling the reservation 10 days early. #
Have discovered a youtube playlist of old video game music and my afternoon is now shot http://is.gd/cCAi0 #
While it's true I haven't been in the state for most of the time, I find it a bit shocking that I haven't turned on my TV in over a week. #
@Aquamindy um however many days it was between last Wednesday and about half an hour ago? in reply to Aquamindy #
