My tweets of the last week:
- @adrianacasey Oh, we have a 24hr Acme, in which I like to stage Glee-style musical numbers while shopping after 11pm. in reply to adrianacasey #
- I thought orange juice and soy milk would create a delicious creamsicle drink, which it does, but it also seems to be fermenting. Quickly. #
- @radiocolin If I was on a game show you would be my tweet-a-friend. in reply to radiocolin #
- Note to future self: do not create & consume experimental non-alchoholic drinks that have the possibility of curdling at 11:30pm on a Sunday #
- @radiocolin I have only done that twice, & on one of the occasions I was seeing at least nine of @arcati81. I verified by counting her twice in reply to radiocolin #
- My #MusicMonday post is about Philly songwriter @joshuapopejoy – not a big tweeter, but one hell of an acoustic rocker: http://bit.ly/bysvsx #
- @theoreticalgirl Well, now I hate knowing it too! Thanks! PS: PJ Harvey, for real? I would have so done that with you :) in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- Chris Rock bounced from Pryor biopic over comments in support of Michael Vick. http://bit.ly/d0euHE #
- It’s weird to be @northstarbar for an all-ages show! I’m pretty psyched to see @eisley in such an intimate venue w/good sound. #
- @Justin_Freid I’m amazed at how much time & money I see poured into it. I think it’s approaching being categorically dead for our generation in reply to Justin_Freid #
- Need to remember to see if we can pick our own preshow music for our next show. Doesn’t usually come up for local gigs, but really sets mood #
- @IONRyan After much debate & review reading the 1st one we bought was Star Trek, which is presently still my fav. Can’t wait for Incredibles in reply to IONRyan #
- @mikeyzito AWESOME!!! House-having is the best thing, ever. Super happy for you. The next few months will be hectic and fun ;) in reply to mikeyzito #
- @LunaTechie I’ve located @toofeets w/the digital assistance of @northstarbar ;) Wow, remember trying to find friends at concerts 10yrs ago? in reply to LunaTechie #
- Realized a SM pal was @northstarbar w/us, got in touch, & found each other, all w/twitter. Remember trying to find friends@ shows 10yrs ago? #
- The Ives Band is utterly amazing. Maybe my new favorite band? Blowing me away. A cross between Rufus Wainwright, J Mraz, and something…? #
- If this band is half as good on LP as they are on the stage I may have located my album of 2010. (Afraid it might be a little generic on LP) #
- Chatted for a while w/Brian, bassist from Ives the Band. It’s their first East Coast tour! Grabbed the full length LP. @eisley on right now! #
- @ivestheband I don’t have enough superlatives for your set. All the best on the rest of the tour; we’ll definitely see you when you’re back! in reply to IvesTheBand #
- @toofeets Yay for getting to hang out with you tonight! I’ll def share the videos once I figure out which YouTube channel to upload them on. in reply to toofeets #
- @PhilthyBlog Not that I can do much to avoid it, but thanks for the heads up. in reply to PhilthyBlog #
- Wacky El issues and laptop battery just died. l’m going to go out on a limb and dub this morning “not awesome” #
- Charging my laptop on the El while logging in remotely to work and watching a video of my band on my iPod. Oh this modern life. #
- @toofeets Definitely loving the album – took me a while to realize track one wasn’t all crowd noise :) Definitely a little heavier live. in reply to toofeets #
- @toofeets @Not_Pele Haha, yes, the glitter is missing, as is the lead singers’ jaunty hat :) in reply to toofeets #
- @enjyn I’ve been talking you up to a few artists lately. Any flagship Enjyn projects I should point them to as examples? #
- @beth_warren I’m more than a little tempted to pick up K. Richard’s book after reading excerpts. Not a big Stones fan, but love the history in reply to beth_warren #
- @BethHarte Thanks for RTing Valeria’s seminar; I may have missed it otherwise, and it’s on one of my favorite topics! in reply to BethHarte #
- @beth_warren From the “not a fan, but loved it” category, the Motley Crue autobiography is a great read. in reply to beth_warren #
- @beth_warren It’s almost cartoonish how many horrific, unhealthy situations they survive. It’s like Wile E. Coyote with guitars & hard drugs in reply to beth_warren #
- @brimil That looks cool; can I borrow though E when you’re done? in reply to brimil #
- @amanda_nan Yes, join the modern age! I did it. @brimil did it. Even @not_pele sorta did it. Now it’s your turn :) in reply to amanda_nan #
- Fascinating article about how minor thirds are hard-coded for sadness, even in speech: http://bit.ly/aMhjMT (via@mariatsciarrino) #
- Still listening to @ivestheband‘s album, non-stop, since I arrived at work this morning. If I had a car & no rehearsals I would follow them. #
- @eddidit @IONRyan @bengarvey We decided to buy ONE BluRay of something we already had on DVD. Came down to Trek, Dark Knight, & The Fountain in reply to eddidit #
- Any “funny” post that takes me >10 minutes to write is going to be awful, by definition. They’re known as my “figure-skating pants” posts. #
- “Figure-skating pants” is an injoke I have about ill-fitting pants; it always garners laughs when I talk about it but has proven unbloggable #
- @bengarvey Mmm, need to keep my eyes out for it on the cheap. It’s one of our favorite movies. in reply to bengarvey #
- See my Things To Do In Philly for pumpkin ales, punk cover bands, & plenty of shows to keep you in tune thru Halloween: http://bit.ly/9x4ih5 #
- I have my learner’s permit form filled out AND I’m not losing my hearing! This day is pretty damn awesome so far, and it’s not even noon. #
- @MelGreiner Can you find a hula rocker, with an electric guitar instead of a ukulele? (Although, keep in mind this is @not_pele‘s car too :) in reply to MelGreiner #
- @MelGreiner @not_pele Now who is facilitating nonsense, hmm? ;) in reply to MelGreiner #
- Listening in on the “Lack of SM in a Crisis Will Kill You” webinar with @conversationage! #
- @mayaREguru Very much deserved! I just voted in your favor ;) in reply to mayaREguru #
- Sweaty and difficult @filmstarband rehearsal, but by the end I roughed out my fretless bass song plus a solid bassline our new tune. #
- I was impressed with this no-fluff article on tightening up your resume: RT @mysalary 14 Fatal Resume Mistakes: http://a.salary.com/2309 #
- @_sams There has always been some upper limit to API calls, but I thought that was only with/from apps (?) in reply to _sams #
- @ConversationAge It was a terrifc presentation! I knew the case studies, but having data to show their evolution was wonderful. #powerd in reply to ConversationAge #
- @mayaREguru I’m doing well; incredibly busy w/music projects & an active month of blogging and writing upcoming. You? Jettsetting, as usual? in reply to mayaREguru #
- We had an AMAZING time at the @Eisley & @ivestheband show on Monday @northstarbar. I love when they have acoustic/pop acts in that space! #
- See my Things To Do In Philly for pumpkin ales, punk cover bands, & plenty of shows to keep you in tune thru Halloween: http://bit.ly/9x4ih5 #
- @theoreticalgirl PJ Hardly?!!? That was an actual LOL for me. PS: Are all the covers punk-style, or some straight up? in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- Peter, Paul & Mary ask Natl Org for Marriage to stop using their song; call NOM “directly contrary” to band’s position http://bit.ly/bpqi8P #
- Need creepy fare for a Halloween party? How about a Meat Hand meatloaf cake? http://bit.ly/bnW9NQ Warning: Spooky.(via @bluishorange) #
- @Not_Pele My links come with no claim of freshness. Since some folks have RT’d clearly it was the first they heard of it as well! in reply to Not_Pele #
- @theoreticalgirl I’m so bummed I didn’t know about this so I could get involved. I’m really hoping i can make it! in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- Planning to go up to NYC always causes me undue stress. Why do so many people (and concerts) that I like have to be there? #
- My propensity for sitting around w/unbuttoned jeans & using toilet paper for tissues makes this seem like a den of masturbation to visitors. #
- @mayaREguru I swear, you come up in conversation daily. Talking to a friend of @not_pele‘s doing RE in Havertown, looking to enter into SM. #
- @mayanorthen I never button this pair of jeans! But then E brought a friend to my studio & I felt compelled to button them super-obviously! in reply to mayanorthen #
- Pro: started writing a new song on the El! Con: Feel weird; remembering last time I got the vaccine I had on Weds I had an allergic reaction #
- @socialbrown RT @GlenGilmore SM cuts #healthcare costs in NJ employee health clinic 19% http://bit.ly/aPQn26 #hcsm RT @AdherentHealth #ROI #

- @Remysbaby You’ve got to tweet with #RtRibbon for them to pick up your support! in reply to Remysbaby #
- Dessert buffet @ XIX with @marykateruf @melgriener & the rest of the team! http://twitpic.com/31y0ze #
- @Not_Pele Mel proclaimed they were some extraordinarily large blackberries. @marykateruf @melgriener in reply to Not_Pele #
- I now have HALF the projects at work I did a month ago – and this is a NORMAL workload. Just goes to show how patently insane the summer was #
- At Kenneth Cole. Madonna on, shop boy immediately cottoned on to my style. This does not bode well for my bank account. #
- @Not_Pele All men’s wear 30% off. I may open a line of credit. in reply to Not_Pele #
- @marykateruf at our friend Kenneth’s. 30% all men’s. 30% women’s apparel. #
- I have now acquired three shop boys, but not all of them are on my fashion vibe. #
- @ANewBandADay I’ve owed you a message all week! @ivestheband = new & amazing. A little pop for the blog. I have a live video to share w/you. in reply to ANewBandADay #
- @Not_Pele Don’t worry, women’s shoes not on sale. I think they all smelled blood when I pulled an old pair of KC shoes out for comparison. in reply to Not_Pele #
- @Not_Pele I had my wedding ring on the right finger and everything! ;) in reply to Not_Pele #
- @hchybinski The idea that you could get to age 10 without seeing it once seems nearly fictional! in reply to hchybinski #
- @amanda_nan Please tell me you have the song “Still Alone” by Straylight Run. Awesome woodwinds and horns. Giving me ideas… #
- Nice to see teens on the bus reading hefty tomes that aren’t Twilight. Both that and Potter have their place, but they aren’t the all of Lit #
- @natasha I dunno, have you seen how much B- and C-movie horror awaits you in the depths of the Netflix streaming titles? ;) in reply to natasha #
- Every time I hear a few more pages of @ericsmithrocks pod-book I get another inkling of song. If only there was more time before book launch #
- @ANewBandADay I was thinking of you at the show and shot video of a few songs, but I still need to upload. in reply to ANewBandADay #
- I keep a mental list of acts never to play w/ due to the overwhelming rudeness of their fans. I know artists can’t help it, but still awful. #
- Cris Valkyria played a song I love, “cutting strings.” Not only a great song and hook, but has eight bars of melody that I absolutely covet. #
- 1 of my favorite bassists in Philly and 1 of my favorite lead guitarists in Philly backing Victoria Spaeth, one of my favorite songwriters!! #
- Oh, Saturday afternoon supermarket. So many sweatpants, so little dignity. #
- I think the main problem with my dream of playing Hedwig is that I can only perform “Midnight Radio” full voice once or twice in a week. #
- @slboval Oh, I am definitely not disapproving of cute, butt-hugging, appropriate-to-wear-in-public sweatpants. We’re talking 80s gym class. in reply to slboval #
- Continuing our new tradition of Halloween costumes that we’d wear to a party any day, tonight we are Corey and Lucas from Empire Records. #
- Except, I was too enamored with my hair to get it cut super short, and @not_pele won’t hike up her skirt far enough. It’s Rex Manning Day! #
- There is a perfect Rachel Berry at this party. It’s uncanny how much she looks like the show! #
- The party’s host is Medusa, and when we hugged hello one of her snakes went in my mouth. It was sort of hot. #
