Google and Typekit released a javascript project called web font loader[1] that allows custom fallback logic. You can add custom code that loads self-hosted fonts if Google is timing out. To generate the fonts on your server, you can download the original fonts[2] and run them through FontSquirrel's Font-Face Generator[3]. This provides some of the optimization benefits that Ilya mentions in his blog post.
