My tweets of the last week:
- I think playing w/ @miekapauley in our living room ranks up there w/ throwing our own music festival & my 1st gig at the Tin Angel. Amazing! #
- I can't wait to share audio and video with you – Mieka's set is fantastic, and my new cover of Ray of Light came out kinda rockin' ;) #
- @THEkrismohfanz Can't wait to send you the audio of Ray of Light! :) in reply to THEkrismohfanz #
- @amanda_nan Wow, it sounds like your night was totally epic. As was ours :) – must swap stories ASAP. in reply to amanda_nan #
- If any of you night owls want to hear me wailing on Madonna's "Ray of Light" live & acoustic, well, here you go: http://bit.ly/9IClBG #
- Good morning Twitter! I was out of the loop (and work) yesterday, so I feel like i have to intake double the information today. Ready? Go. #
- I have a pair of Phillies tickets for tomorrow night to give away via my first ever Twitter contest. Now to decide how one will enter… #

- I'll randomly select one tweeter of my blog or my cover to hand a pair of Sec. 416 tickets to. I'll meet you anywhere in CCity tomorrow <6pm #
- @citizengulfphl Can we pay at the door tomorrow, or is the intent to do it all through the website? in reply to citizengulfphl #
- @axestatic Check out the live debut of my cover of “Ray of Light” on baritone guitar @ http://bit.ly/ck10rol #
- @axestatic Wouldn't mind at all! Bandcamp has nifty little embed players for blogs. Ramping up for my big Madge covers project this fall :) in reply to axestatic #
- Surely one of the reasons they keep me around is my spot-on Gollum impressions in staff meetings. #
- Win a pair of 8/25 Phillies tix! Tweet my cover of Ray of Light @ http://bit.ly/ck10rol -I'll hand-deliver your tix anywhere in CC! (Pls RT) #
- Madonna guitar blog @Axestatic just posted my acoustic cover of "Ray of Light!" – http://bit.ly/9Y02nA #
- @axestatic My project for the fall is to start a directory on my blog of every Madonna album and begin arranging/covering each song ;) in reply to axestatic #
- @brimil I know you already follow @Natasha, but this is a MUST-READ for FAME2010 purposes: RT Artist Guide: The Hustle http://bit.ly/cW1gVg #
- BIG NEWS: We're confirmed to play the Tin Angel on 9/16 w/our good friend @DanteBucci! So psyched for this show; tix @ http://bit.ly/ac1009 #

- Not too late to win Phillies tix for tomorrow! Tweet my cover of Ray of Light @ http://bit.ly/ck10rol -I'll deliver your tix anywhere in CC! #
- There's a reason I stopped doing freelance. It's called: I'm the account guy all day at work – by night I'd prefer to be the client. #
- On the other hand, I'm really smart, and I enjoyed being paid for that. #
- @sifelaver At midnight I have to make a random selection from the people who tweeted the link. in reply to sifelaver #
- @sifelaver Dude, I provided a bit.ly right to the song, whether or not you tweeted like a schoolgirl was entirely up to you ;) in reply to sifelaver #
- @sifelaver That's why I supplied the bit.ly link. Their share tool is annoying. It doesn't even provide short links. in reply to sifelaver #
- 3hrs into freelance I ask a question & learn the client wants me to do something I don't remotely know how to do. Well, better than 30hrs in #
- @RoxieKat That is blasphemy. You have to eat them as quickly as possible. If it took 2 days clearly you weren't having them for breakfast. in reply to RoxieKat #
- @brimil Can you do anything w/eco friendly and/or recycled/repurposed materials? Maybe find some massive piece of scrap to paint? in reply to brimil #
- @brimil Yeah, but cardboard is easy. Do they have old fixtures they're removing? Any kind of remodeling? Maybe all natural paints? in reply to brimil #
- @brimil Um, I can think of a chandelier that's mostly recycled crap… in reply to brimil #
- @Cecilyk Dude, when I was unlogged in to Twitter this morning you were on the "people you should follow" block on the login screen! #
- Devouring salt & pepper @popchips from the sample box they sent to fuel our team for a day. Thanks for keeping us creative folks popping :) #
- Congrats to my old-school (literally) friend @remysbaby, the randomly-picked winner of Phillies tix, & thanks all for RTing my Ray of Light! #
- Sometimes animal humor is what I need at 2pm. RT @phillydesign I guess they just do look that way… http://hungoverowls.tumblr.com #
- @johhnny5 @amanda_nan You can understand why I love her so much, yes? /cc: @Not_Pele #
- @mayaREguru That was an awesome blog post. I need to share you with our own wonderful Realtor. in reply to mayaREguru #
- Writing these anniversary posts always stresses me out, but I always enjoy them in retrospect. #
- I seem to be trying to shatter that million-word mark on my blog w/this post alone. It bears mentioning that I am 15k words away from 1mill. #
- Last year was over 1700 words… can it possibly run that long again? #
- It is, finally and unbelievably, the tenth anniversary of my blog, CrushingKrisis.com! #
- @HallmanComposer Thanks for tweeting my Ray of Light cover! What are you up to lately? We still need to meet, and maybe collaborate ;) #
- Wait until you see the 20+ photos of me in my 10th Anniversary post. It's like an annotated history of my amazing hair. #
- Alright, here it is – 10 years of hair cuts and the complete abridged last year of my life, all in one post: http://bit.ly/c4XmqM #
- How is it that I didn't realize my blog shares a birthday w/my favorite frontwoman and all-around idol, Shirley Manson of @garbageofficial? #
- What the hell – Facebook notes don't accept standard HTML anymore? Wow, they really have turned into MySpace. #
- Does anyone know of a WordPress word cloud plugin? I can only find tag cloud ones, at the moment. I want a cloud of actual words in posts. #
- PS: Also seeking a plugin/widget that will display "posts from X years ago" automatically. #
- Check out this amazing 10-year statistic: I have posted *107* original songs to my blog in 10 years. That's 10 albums' worth of songs! #
- @Cecilyk @THEkrismohfanz @ChrissMari @PhillyMarketing Thanks for spreading the anniversary joy! ;) It's been a surreal day thinking about it in reply to Cecilyk #
- @wockerjabby You will not regret a binding machine. I feel like half of your supply stress always comes from how to collect papers. in reply to wockerjabby #
- A brisk day of work, followed by a @filmstarband rehearsal, packing, and heading to a gig in NY tomorrow morning. Ah, the life. #
- @seesawshuffle Oh, I hear you there. I sometimes feel ostracized as a musician because I do not want to jam into the wee hours ;) in reply to seesawshuffle #
- @amanda_nan I really cannot say that word with any kind of credibility. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @amanda_nan re: Time Management, grab "Getting Things Done" from the library and read the first few chapters. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @melissa_shae I think we should do this RT @charitywater Still on a hunt for #september birthdays. is that you? http://borninseptember.org #
- I just changed my Twitter bio for the first time in over a year – subtle changes, but I'm a little different now. Still a narcissist, though #
- @Remysbaby hahaha, I think that might have to be one of my new blog taglines. in reply to Remysbaby #
- I think this could be my new catchphrase, on my more confident days: RT @Remysbaby @krisis Narcissist? Or just that good? #
- @zaneology I'm hoping to! Thanks for the well wishes. What does your day hold in store? in reply to zaneology #
- @seesawshuffle Me w/caffeine isn't pretty. In my barista days if I drank espresso I'd get too buzzed to be able to operate the touch screen. in reply to seesawshuffle #
- @PhillyAdKids You're followed by folks whose taste I trust, plus you're in Philly doing next-gen advertising! Look forward to your tweets ;) #
- @zaneology Eek! Sounds distracting. I tried video editing earlier this yr, but need a higher end cam than Flip for audio-syncing purposes.. in reply to zaneology #
- Is it weird that I was compelled to interrupt a man having his lunch to say his Wanamaker's bag made my day? #
- Need to get in the zone for a big meeting – blasting @mozellamusic on headphones while I get centered. #
- @fadophilly May be guilty as charged… but, the Wanamaker's logo! How often do you see that, anymore? in reply to fadophilly #
- @mozellamusic Next time you're on the East Coast I have to find a way to get you into Philly! Just did house show for another artist we love in reply to mozellamusic #
- @drawonthewalls Ahh, I failed you! Some perennial favs you might not know are Mozella, Mieka Pauley, & Dresden Dolls -all uniquely charming in reply to drawonthewalls #
- Working on our a plan to promote a company's external SM presence to an internal audience. Anyone out there been through this recently? #
- @drawonthewalls Well, the other two aren't like that at all :) in reply to drawonthewalls #
- @drawonthewalls Did you pick up @amandapalmer's RadioHead covers EP on bandcamp? in reply to drawonthewalls #
- @ajohnsru Not at all! I still love the parts on my voice exercise tape when my instructor told me I was sounding great ;) in reply to ajohnsru #
- @triciallen haven't talked to you much lately – what's up in your world? in reply to triciallen #
- @schmidtultra LIKE. Two might have been my lifetime quota, but I'm happy to live (and leap) vicariously through you ;) in reply to schmidtultra #
- @TeresaBasich Now that I'm a customer I've got to get on a webinar or call that you're on! I would die! in reply to TeresaBasich #
- Pretty heavy workout @filmstarband rehearsal. Flubbed a few pre-chorus changes, but otherwise ready to rock our ny state gig tomorrow. #
- Heath and Golden Oreo Blizzard. The best thing on Earth this week. (@ Dairy Queen) http://4sq.com/cqWFJQ #
- Up and puttering around the house, getting read for our road trip to West Paltz, NY for my first gig with @filmstarband #
- @marykateruf catching up on some september issues on the drive; need one w good men's fashion; vf is all lame dark suits in reply to marykateruf #
- Seem to have developed a white-hot-poker-through-the-lungs sort of muscle pain in my lower back. Pain scale of 6-7 when trying to inhale. #
- Oh, Cricket. I will 1 day believe your advertising claims when I can connect to the internet for a single second anywhere in the state of NY #
- Back pain has settled into a comfortable 4 on the pain scale; I think it's from the standing up straight while playing a heavier instrument. #
- (As opposed to typically leaned slightly forward over a relatively light acoustic guitar.) #
- @johhnny5 @anniemal If there wasn't something to attribute it to i'd be much more worried, but it is so very clearly related to bass playing in reply to johhnny5 #
- @THEkrismohfanz I could SERIOUSLY use a visit to a chiro. I used to go regularly, but haven't in yrs. Have to check to see how it's covered. in reply to THEkrismohfanz #
- In other news, 1st gig w/ @filmstarband was hot & mega-fun, but I'm clearly not a bassist (even though I have a good time impersonating one) #
- @mymelisma thanks! It was a pretty low key gig, and a lot of fun. How about you? Did you debut the songs you were learning w/ your husband? in reply to mymelisma #
- @SarahRobinson the heath chips they have there are serious business – massive hunks, not the tiny ones you get for baking in reply to SarahRobinson #
- @zaneology no, I have to look into them! I love the ease of flip for rehearsal recording, but the video wasn't ideal for editing purposes. in reply to zaneology #
- At the point we're on our 3rd trip to Home Depot to pick up free blue paint swatches, doesn't it make sense to just take EVERY blue swatch? #
- (Apparently not, if you're my wife. Luckily, I am here too.) #
