Today&#8217;s the mysterious holiday <a href=\"http:\/\/gothamist.com\/2010\/06\/10\/its_brooklyn-queens_day_aka_anniver.php\">Brooklyn-Queens Day<\/a> so I took the day off and Gus + I went out to the incredibly deserted, surprisingly clean beach at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nyharborparks.org\/visit\/foti.html\">Fort Tilden<\/a> on the Rockaways. From Brooklyn to Queens, get it? I hate the beach, really (ugh, sand) ((double ugh, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.penny-arcade.com\/comic\/2004\/04\/30\/\">sun<\/a>)), but it was a gorgeous day and the kids had an utter blast, running themselves around til they were exhausted, so it&#8217;s hard to argue with that.<\/p>\n<p>So, in lieu of an <i>actual<\/i> blag post, here&#8217;s some Twitter. Warning: I went to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acrlnec.org\/sigs\/nelig\/2010\/index.html\">conference<\/a> last Friday so there will be a bunch of library-specific tweets in there. I also presented at the conference and was tickled to find that my talk was both livetweeted and liveblogged, w00t! Will try to post something about that soon, but probably over at my <a href=\"http:\/\/msmale.commons.gc.cuny.edu\">other, less goofy blag<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s fun: a mostly deserted Ft Tilden.
