A text message arrived an hour delayed. Strange.
Sends get-well vibes to @chette!
@JimAyson I found out I can’t use the same mobile number for two Twitter accounts last week! (Yes, I know it was an illogical assumption)
Okay, I officially hate the Mazda ad slapping itself in front of the inquirer.net headline stories.
Sends chin-up vibes to @twitterbowlen!
Time to go home if you still aren’t. Travel safe, twitterers!
Hardly any cars northbound on EDSA. Lots of people walking as cabs are scarce.
Going home in a little while. Hardly any cars on Ayala or Buendia, or at least the parts I can see looking down from our office.
“The guidelines will be issued by the Chief PNP shortly. Bear with us, this is not something we expected or wanted to do.” - Ricardo Puno
MalacaƱang has announced a 12 MN to 5 AM curfew tomorrow.
Buttcrack moment on national news as people crawl out of the hotel.
This is all beginning to feel like the end of a tantrum. An expensive trigger twitch.
“Oh, she said Saturday, not Sunday.” “Double darn.”
“I guess we’re not going home.”
“M says we can go home and work at home but she still needs to see everything on Sunday.” “Darn.”
“So are we going home yet?” “Did the client move the pitch?”
Gloria is now praising the police for a job well done.
Mario Garcia on Channel 4 is berating the media who stayed on, saying they violated KBP rules.
GMA has come out on TV with a recorded statement praising the police for a job well done.
Now that they’ve shipped everyone off to Bicutan, people are in the calm before the second storm.

It’s like we exchanged a fire drill for a coup d’etat attempt. Rain rain rain. Merry Christmas.
Senator Trillanes and General Lim are calling for people to withdraw support from GMA. What the?!
Another coup d’etat attempt. Yawn.
Goodbye, Pen lobby.
“Manila Peninsula rocked by repeated gunfire.”
@JimAyson You’re right! I don’t think they would stage a coup in, let’s say, City Garden Hotel.
The general feeling in the office about this situation is aggravation and frustration, with a tiny bit of “what now?”
I am too easily amused. This time by all these silver ladies who seem to have had their christmas party very early.
It’s Pengallery’s holiday sale! Hurray!
My blog has a blidget! http://tinyurl.com/25xun9
Ack! Versiontracker’s down.
@lias and the rest of y&r indonesia - good luck!
The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything is 42. This is what I think of while I freeze in the office.
@mcvie Which strictly speaking is “bid-ay,” like sachet…
@mcvie A blidget is a blog widget…that transforms into a bidet. ;)
Blackberry just pushed 8 emails from Sept 2006 into my inbox. What the?!
Do NOT turn right at Robinsons Pioneer if you’re going to Pioneer street. Traffic’s at a standstill. Take Reliance.
The wind’s a howler telling me to go home.
The pens have arrived: a perfume pen, a rose Dinkie, and a green Dinkie set. :) Happy.
A, A, A, Airplane!
There are pens in the mail today!
Ambulance trapped in Ayala traffic. Nothing’s moving.
@JimAyson It would have made me pout less had the guy at the Smart booth told me that! He just said “not for macs” flat out!
@jimayson The guy at the Smart booth said their modem doesn’t work with Macs. :(
@sylverlyt Back to normal!
Must the office be this cold? At least the typhoon seems to have calmed down.
@mdy I always use internet check-in now. It saves you so much grief - and ankle pain!
Now at Gerry’s Grill having lunch before leaving Subic. It’s been a relaxed morning, thank heavens!
Finally home after 4 days of Ad Congress!
