My tweets of the last week:
- Oh, there's my first new homeowner injury. I'm just relieved it didn't have to do with the manual lawnmower… #
- @RoxieKat No! Clearly I am being too careful. I haven't even broken a lightbulb. in reply to RoxieKat #
- Good lord, the Sears fridge-parts site runs as if I'm DLing it over a high-tech 14.4 modem. What script is in its death throes back there? #
- Back at the old house for the second time. We have more leftover stuff here than most kids bring with them to college. #firstworldproblems #
- PS: I know this has turned into NEW HOMEOWNERS TWITTER ZOMG the past week, but there is SO MUCH new content coming once we're settled ;) #
- Omg, they are singing Glee-style Don't Stop Believin' at bro's graduation and he's on the male solo. Tears begin. #
- The superintendent's commencement speech is about Facebook & Twitter. Surreal. #
- @socialbrown RT @jmikardos white paper: Sharing Health Data for Better Outcomes on PatientsLikeMe http://bit.ly/bIocRj #hcsm #
- The Pepsi girl and the boy from Zombieland (siblings) are ten feet to my left snapping photos. #
- Well, I wasn't planning on an eight mile bike ride, but it's not a terrible way to spend a Wednesday evening. #
- @iconjohn I was just reading about that – insanity! It's hard to conceive of a match going on that long. in reply to iconjohn #
- I seriously don't need a marble toilet seat. Seriously. I mean, probably not. It's not like I require one. I could still buy one, of course. #
- I'm not sure how much longer I can keep organizing the new house without stopping to play music; snuck a few minutes at the piano last night #
- @petwebdesigner That is going to give me major nightmares! in reply to petwebdesigner #
- Today's Amazon "Gold Box" deal is $38 for the complete 20-disc set of Fraggle Rock. Very, very tempting. http://amzn.to/d77dr3 #
- @kacphl Haha, that's awesome! I don't think I would ever make it back from my lunch break. in reply to kacphl #
- I'm super-psyched for all my Philly SM worlds to collide @smdphilly next Wed, sponsored by @digitas_health & @chevypa. I love our community! #
- @iWIC3 I advised a co-worker not to run home at lunch to grab their iPhone off of their step. They're not liking me so much right now… in reply to iWIC3 #
- @YoungBillyMays I find mine every possible place. Utensil Drawer. Laundry. Briefcase. Floor of car. More a question of where I haven't found in reply to YoungBillyMays #
- @amanda_nan @not_pele yikes! It looked really bad in our direction from my vantage at work. Minutes away from viewing the potential carnage. in reply to amanda_nan #
- Drexel Hill absolutely mauled; trees & wires down everywhere. Neighorbors saying there was a tornado? Garrett a mess. @not_pele @amanda_nan #
- My street is totally obstructed – note the tree suspended from a power line. House seems intact. @not_pele http://twitpic.com/1zmwls #
- @suzymags no word, but w/amount of lines down i'm not optimistic. Does @smashleydubs have power? Might have to charge my phone@ her house ;) in reply to suzymags #
- @amanda_nan E's sister is actually the chain-saw wielder in the family. I only like tools with stationary blades (like a drill press). in reply to amanda_nan #
- Tonight I am loving PECO's suburban wing much more than I ever loved their Philly-based fleet – power back in most of our neighborhood. #
- Good morning all! Grateful to have a house & power this AM, as well as our lovely dogwood tree intact. An awesome day, + E has a gig tonight #
- @mayaREguru Lots of carnage on our block from the storm. We're playing 2nd Saturday in Collingswood on 7/10, 6-9pm, by the big clock. in reply to mayaREguru #
- Excited to re-start my musical life tonight; @filmstarband splits a Philly bill w/ultra-fantastic NYC band @TheShondes: http://bit.ly/bCKYjy #
- We saw @easthundred for the 1st time 2wks ago (seems like forever!); later learned from @dantebucci that EH used to be Mutlu's backing band. #
- @kacphl I really love their arrangements – so much texture, it's hard to pick out a lead line on any one instrument other than synth solos. in reply to kacphl #
- @themojoshow Maybe she just wants to have an excuse to stare at you for an hour before the date? Have you taken her class before? in reply to themojoshow #
- Philly @CityPaper ran an effusive write-up of @TheShondes for the Tritone show tonight w/ @filmstarband: http://bit.ly/aazuOM – So psyched! #
- @Digitas_Health Thanks for the RT! I'm excited to meet Carly & the rest of the tweet team at @smdphilly. I assume @brimil will be there too? #
- DL a free demo of "The World Is Mine" – it's been my fav @filmstarband track for months: @ http://bit.ly/b7lTPV -They'll def play it tonight #

- I'm not a TV watcher & I know reality shows are not real, but this behind the scenes of Biggest Loser is still shocking http://bit.ly/dls9go #
- @leesa_up I'm so happy you had a good experience with them! If you're around tonight we'll be at Tritone ~9ish for E's band & @TheShondes. in reply to leesa_up #
- Haven't had time to sum up our extreme-weather scare from yesterday, but @cecilyk's post gives a good glimpse: http://bit.ly/dBVSzQ #
- @amanda_nan @not_pele dude, we told you it was challenging. And a tearjerker. If you make it through, you will cry. in reply to amanda_nan #
- Parked at Tritone (15&South) to act as roadie/merch-guy for @filmstarband as they split the bill w/ @theshondes. $7, FS ~10pm, Shondes ~12am #
- I feel like I should be writing a post while I'm on my laptop, but I am extraordinarily brain dead. I think THE ROCK is plenty to occupy me. #
- @kelly_clarkson I'm so psyched that Garbage is one of the inspirations for the sound of your next LP. Eagerly awaiting the results ;) in reply to kelly_clarkson #
- @graybill haha, I will make sure to preface the hug from a total stranger by telling her it's not weird ;) in reply to graybill #
- Why do sound techs & DJs think music needs to be so loud in a small room? Perhaps so that hearing damage is self-perpetuating in the scene? #
- @amanda_nan I am notorious for telling E that I'm not prepared to be depressed enough to watch The Fountain. in reply to amanda_nan #
- The band rocked rather awesomely on their set. Suddenly a lot of the songs are taking on a girl-groupy shimmy; maybe it's Zina's drumming? #
- @amanda_nan Truly one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen, in every way. Originally was for a much higher budget, and Brad Pitt (!) in reply to amanda_nan #
- @amanda_nan Watch the behind-the-scenes stuff, if you're into that. Very interesting how it all came to be. in reply to amanda_nan #
- There is something primal and right about women wielding guitars and drum sticks. Just the sight of it sets me atingle. #
- Got a Thao vibe from Post Post from note #1 roughly pretty, singsongy indie pop. I'm thinking I'm going to love them. http://mysp.ac/dlJ45h #
- That was one of the best set-opening tunes I've heard. Like, ever. #
- This whole bill is like seeing a $250 rock concert in a 100 person room. @theshondes are indescribably awesome. Loving tonight to the ground #
- @IONRyan No, this was an all-female bill: Rachel Tension, @filmstarband, Post Post, and @theshondes. (But, I love TJ Kong ;) in reply to IONRyan #
- There is no replacement for good hooks. What made this a good concert? Talent? Sure. But, moreso, every band played songs with strong hooks. #
- Good morning! It's stunning and beautiful here – and all the more so for being Saturday. What about where you are? #
- @paullucci Not only a nice relaxation, but it's supposed to be mega-hot tomorrow and Monday. Nice to spend it on the ocean, with some relief in reply to paullucci #
- @IONRyan It's such a perfect fit! I thought you'd use the more rocking portion, but the part you picked is perfect with the tide. in reply to IONRyan #
- @JuliaEveHays Awesome! We are about to head to the Landsdowne market. Also, we're playing in Collingswood in two weeks for 2nd Saturday ;) in reply to JuliaEveHays #
- Dislike the unspecific nature of billing for repairs by contractors ;( I know we're laypeople, but I need to know WHAT you did to our house. #
- @mayanorthen I suppose it's more like Queens in structure/neighborhoods, but it's much closer to the center of Philly – about seven miles? in reply to mayanorthen #
- I'm starting to understand how cleaning can take the place of other satisfying activities like playing music or writing. Gotta watch out. #
- Do you know when it isn't a great time to take a shower? After you have taken down all your shades & blinds to soak them. HELLO NEIGHBORS! #
- @avarielwings I have a small unfrosted window in my bathroom, but it's right off our bedroom, which has HUGE front-facing windows. in reply to avarielwings #
- @djmarilyn You know me, I'm friendly :) in reply to djmarilyn #
- What's the highest distance a spider has ever VERTICALLY LEAPED at you, like Kobe Bryant? Because, I think we probably have your number beat #
- @amanda_nan There's a bus that runs up Pine, or Spruce, or something like that that stops about 1/4mi from the Mann. Cab home. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @amanda_nan Ooo, we did NOT like that movie. We thought it was emotionally manipulative and weak on plot. Pixar is hit/miss with us. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @marykateruf We discovered we are bug-free because we host the largest, most genetically diverse spider collection in the borough. @not_pele in reply to marykateruf #
