This Tumblr Blog is DEAD!

About a year ago I found that I was using Twitter as my primary blogging mechanism and only occasionally updating my long-form blog at aripaparo.com. So I tried an experiment where I would use Tumblr to integrate my tweets with my posts, and it would be cool and all that.

Turns out, since 99% of what I write are the tweets, if you want to know what I’m up to, you can just go to my twitter feed. That’s how my Mom keeps track. Or better yet, “friend” me on Facebook, no muss, no fuss.

With that said, I’m going to make an honest attempt to keep my old blog at aripaparo.com up to date. So update your RSS readers (for those of you who still use those), update your bookmarks in whatever cloud-based bookmark management system you might choose, and stop coming here.

Thanks.

For the record, the proper tool for a TiVo that won’t give you back a DVD is a hammer. Screwdriver or Allen wrench: too subtle.

Too early for leftovers? Maybe just some stuffing…

Holy shit that’s a big sweet potato.

My cab just played chicken with a bus and won. However, I crapped my pants.

Forgot kid’s lunch at home but remembered to pick up Starbucks for myself. Time to call protective services.

What’s a worse sign, that you run out of vermouth, or you decide that you don’t really need it anyway?
