• @jshanley Not a contact, but ChapterHouse off South, major fav of touring indie musicians to chill, big comfy shop. Also: Brickbat books. in reply to jshanley #
• @jshanley Alas, I have not been very active in the drinking of or playing-at coffee recently, so my current contacts are decaffeinated. in reply to jshanley #
• @brianalynch Yes, images can turn out to be the big timesuck – finding, uploading, labeling, sizing. Blah. When did blogging get so hard? in reply to brianalynch #
• WordPress 3.3 stealth-enabled post revisions. No wonder the past four hours of my life have sucked so much. Thank heavens for open source. #

• Good morning! Hoping it's a grand one for you (and me, too) #
• If you're in service/instruction (hairdressing, yoga) do you expect clients to become personal friends on your FB etc? Or fans of yr brand? #
• @gloriabell Agreed. Reality is, some fans cross over to friends just as biz contacts do. Doesn't mean you should expose a personal profile. in reply to gloriabell #
• @arianna I usually go with three-times the recommended daily dose. That is a completely unprofessional opinion. :) in reply to arianna #
• @valkrye131 I'm strict w/my personal profile, but I feel like I AM friends w/some service/instruction people. They may not feel that re: me. in reply to valkrye131 #

• @Cecilyk As I'm sure you have experienced, every time I think I've blushed my hardest blush due to the blog, it/I still manage to top myself in reply to Cecilyk #
• @Cecilyk Oh, I JUST assumed you were talking about blogs being embarrassing. Now I see your tweets and realize you meant the other thing. in reply to Cecilyk #
• @eddidit clearly laziness has its benefits in reply to eddidit #

• @jerseyshorejen ugh, comments w/suggestions as if you haven't tried all possible things. Mine not as bad, but recognize my struggle in yours in reply to jerseyshorejen #
• @jerseyshorejen That's a major positive! It's such an individualized condition, I always get so upset when people offer their own solutions. in reply to jerseyshorejen #
• If I have a NY's resolution it is that every time I slouch I hear my yoga instructors' voice in my head: "keep your shoulders on your back" #
• @jerseyshorejen the victory is just as personal as the struggle. It's hard for me not to crow about it if I find a new steroid that works. in reply to jerseyshorejen #

• Good morning! #
• Oh, @septa. Of course when I leave for work an hours early I wind up stuck in a subway tunnel. That's just how you roll. #
• @MelGreiner I was just requiring you in my life yesterday. I cannot recall why. Something connected to my sanity, i'm sure. in reply to MelGreiner #
• @MelGreiner I fully endorse this resolution and will remind you if you forget about it ;) in reply to MelGreiner #
• The 2011 LP Portamento by Drums is bad. Just in case you were wondering. One less album to catch up on! #
• @AmyZQuinn I have decided people who grumble about waiting in line have much to learn about all that the world offers them every day. in reply to AmyZQuinn #
• @gloriabell Oh lord, I never check my spam folder. Terrifying. in reply to gloriabell #

• @Not_Pele That really is one of my best posts of all time. I didn't even realize which it was when I linked it, other than it mentioned Hole in reply to Not_Pele #
• @Cecilyk There's a strong chance you would like @mozellamusic. Has that raspy taffy voice but much poppier, major, girl-groupy arrangements. #
• @Not_Pele Please feel free to bring me home a product sample of Spanx for Men. in reply to Not_Pele #
• @MelGreiner @marykateruf @not_pele MAKE IT SO! in reply to MelGreiner #
• @amanda_nan That is the most offensive movie I have sat through the duration of in my life. in reply to amanda_nan #
• @Krochmal Whoa, do you plan to share your list of grading apps/metrics? Sounds like an awesome final exam for a year of tweeting! in reply to Krochmal #
• @DirtyGert Of course, I also found The Hangover too offensive to sit through… though, not as overtly in reply to DirtyGert #
• @brimil pshaw, I consider myself semi-pro. Related: when I back from vaca can we pick a regular recurring hangout evening w/ @ajohnsru? in reply to brimil #
• @amanda_nan I am not doing ww, but I sympathize. The more I go to the gym the more I CRAVE fake energy foods 24/7…defeating the gym-going. in reply to amanda_nan #
• I can always immediately discern an Bon Iver song when it comes on shuffle by the speed with which I reach for the iPod to skip past it. #
• Good morning! How has the first week of 2012 treated you? How have you treated yourself? #
• The Taylor Swift/Civil Wars Hunger Games song is killing me. The harmony is incredible & subtly creepy. Awesome to hear such an organic tune #
• @alex_beyer The weird, queasy-making harmony? Yes. And, @not_pele and I ♥ Eisley big-time. in reply to alex_beyer #
• @misstoiletslave I don't think any amount of sneezes would be bad enough to offset all of that other stuff. in reply to misstoiletslave #
• @RobIsEvil I hoover everything I've missed up at end of the year, some of which I despise…but it must be outright OFFENSIVE to get deleted. in reply to RobIsEvil #
• @Krochmal Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to your new analysis/grade :) in reply to Krochmal #
• There's a new post on my blog: artistic explorers http://t.co/pO4QPQUJ #
• My normal friday class at the gym is canceled, so I am going to take the only one on the schedule marked "Advanced." Should be entertaining. #
• I love attending meetings with people as crazy-enthusiastic and game-show referencing as I am. #
• @inflammatorywrt I know ovation is applause but in that context somehow I read it as having to do w/ovaries. IDK, long week…& love that film in reply to inflammatorywrt #
• @srcasm Ahh, I still have to log back into @GetBackstory now that the code has been on my page for a few days. Thanks for the reminder! in reply to srcasm #

• @MelGreiner It's gonna keep happening with or without you. ;) in reply to MelGreiner #
• Guitar strings are now available as a subscribe-and-save item on @amazon. Oh, @Amazon, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways… #
• @RicolaUSA Thanks for the shoutout! Ricola helps keep both @arcaticrisis & @filmstarband in good voice 24/7/365 … we buy them by the case! in reply to RicolaUSA #
• Lots of FAME going on today. /cc @brimil #
• @brimil Want to do a quick catchup @5p? in reply to brimil #
• @brianalynch I like to think of it as a Civil Wars song with guest-vocals by T-Swift. Have you heard the CW album? It's divine. in reply to brianalynch #
• @Not_Pele @eedawson Did you see tiny Jason Segel?! in reply to Not_Pele #
• Reunited with director of my life and fame, @brimil! (@ Serafina Philadelphia) http://t.co/xRx8dHv0 #
• Oh, how I needed these hijinks back in 2012 RT @brimil "see what happens when I have coffee? I turn into a jukebox of marketing." – @krisis" #
• @SBoSM Started using it over the weekend! Feel like I need a lot more friends on it to motivate me more. Works for trying new places on 4SQ… in reply to SBoSM #
• @brainpicker What a wonderful quote to describe how introverts draw energy from their own world of creative intake and output. in reply to brainpicker #
• @NOTCOT Will you still be there this weekend? Would LOVE to meet the tastemakers behind NOTCOT! in reply to NOTCOT #
• @srcasm @GetBackstory Loving the stats! Seems like the JS isn't adding much to my load time at all. Brainstorming my new reader greetings! #
• I know @not_pele so well that I remembered to wake her up for the X-Files scene where Mulder is wearing only a speedo. That is love. #
• It's getting to the point that I could use an intern to fact-check & cross-link all the insane X-Men posts I am writing. I can pay in TPBs. #
• I have a mammoth X-Men post for you tomorrow. MAMMOTH. /cc @GinoTheFilipino @platypusjones @jacobtwop #
• Good morning! #
• I tried to mix black and brown today. It did not work. #
• @GinoTheFilipino No, but I do have that one in the cooker :) in reply to GinoTheFilipino #
• @brimil Buy me things! (not really – I bought SO MUCH Banana last summer, I am full up) @not_pele in reply to brimil #
• @platypusjones I feel like that also needs "impersonating a French Clark Gable" inserted somewhere. in reply to platypusjones #
• A merry member of this cult; article is interesting and spot-on. RT @cgranier The Cult of Amazon Prime http://t.co/W1qzkyLG #
• @cgranier Certainly as much a destructive force (of bank accounts) as it is a constructive one (in saving time). Malls are a joke to me now. in reply to cgranier #
• Convinced one of our SM responses from @socialbrown will soon read, "I'm happy to help…wait a second, I seem to be having a baby RIGHT NOW." #
• In related news, now officially part of the Social Media chain of succession – a role that comes with its own dedicated @Radian6 login :) #
• @SocialBrown You and @not_pele have convinced me that water breaks only on television sitcoms. in reply to SocialBrown #
• @SocialBrown I don't know if I've ever been chatting with someone over a cube wall while they've had a contraction, though :) in reply to SocialBrown #
• @romez Yes, previously I was more of a guest-star (and already OBSESSED with it). I have been upgraded to "Recurring Cast Member" ;) in reply to romez #
• @SocialBrown Funny you hastagged that, I think I may have described S. to @not_pele as "a tiny #superhero quot; from her visit to the office :) in reply to SocialBrown #
• @SocialBrown haha, but you know I meant your daughter, she of the flying dropkicks, yes? in reply to SocialBrown #
• Good morning! What are you looking forward to the most today? #
• @radian6 If I see a tweet in my Twitter stack that's not in 1 of my topic stacks and I want to Note and add to Workflow, how can I do that? in reply to radian6 #
• Do you sometimes look at a person and think, "You could really benefit from a tattoo on your face"? #
• @brianalynch I simply think that someone who is cultivating a Star Trek villain persona should look the part. in reply to brianalynch #
• Nothing like paying extra for rush-shipping to get something in time for a big occasion only to have the thing never materialize at all. #
• @Walgreens It disgusts me that you promoted a tweet to wring positive sentiment from your attempted extortion of @ExpressScripts & customers in reply to Walgreens #
• @GinoTheFilipino Good script from Aaron, but I cannot get into Bradshaw. I dug the. 1 issue of Legacy. Lots of use of the kids, good Rogue. in reply to GinoTheFilipino #
• @MaryeStew Care to make a friendly wager about the foursquare leader board? ;) #
• Of course, @not_pele has found the other web developer on the plane & they're comparing portfolios. In mid-air. Oh, modern life, I love you. #
• @GinoTheFilipino Not great, but Gage inspires some faith that he knows how to handle this cast (largely of my all-time favorite characters) in reply to GinoTheFilipino #
• @MaryeStew Alright, once we touch down I will make note of my handicap (I think I am 15ish behind you) and then the games will begin :) in reply to MaryeStew #
• @MaryeStew alright, you have a 40pt lead on me as of touchdown, let the games begin ;) #
• In the depths of taxi line said I wanted a taxi w/purple swirls & lady driver. Guess what we were randomly assigned? Perhaps I WILL gamble… #
• @MaryeStew alright, we can start tomorrow morning ;) in reply to MaryeStew #
• Good morning! Have some flamingos. http://t.co/LzF7FET2 #
• Amazing brand affinity: we walked into a totally gross fast-food court at 8am because we spotted a single Krispy Kreme logo. #
• "Oh, @not_pele, the Rio has over 50,000 bottles of wine. You'd love that." "Yes, but there are five really cool ducks RIGHT HERE." #
• @marykateruf @MelGreiner Black Swan! http://t.co/vAmNvfoK #
• @MelGreiner @marykateruf Purely in the mini nature oases of the various hotels. in reply to MelGreiner #
• Every @Walgreens promoted tweet is another month I will boycott them after this Rx nonsense. Just walked past 2 on the strip to hit a CVS. in reply to Walgreens #
• @marykateruf @MelGreiner They were gorgeous, incredibly haughty. Wouldn't look directly at the camera. You have picked a great spirit animal in reply to marykateruf #
• Reading all of the bits from Fearing and Loathing in Las Vegas about our hotel to @not_pele. I didn't realize the maid scene happened here! #
• Bubble tea and 1000+ goldfish. Love. (@ Beijing Noodle #9 at Caesar's Palace w/ 2 others) [pic]: http://t.co/9uCRXjO8 #
• Foursquare is worth the weight in gold of all of the meals we eat while we're here. Never used it for tips as much as in the last 24hrs. #
• @FlamingoVegas Front Desk Shawn saved our 3yr anniv by moving us out of a troublesome room. Now merrily in love, watching the fountain! xoxo #
• How we wound up in a bar with $1000 minimum bets, I cannot tell you, but I will gladly drink this top-shelf martini. http://t.co/kws8D2Ka #
• My rock band rehearses louder than that club, and dances better. Next. #
• @MaryeStew I suspect that nothing give points above your first score into 400. in reply to MaryeStew #
• @MaryeStew I am still getting points this morning. Try checking in. in reply to MaryeStew #
• Reached the point where we get seated at a restaurant, check the @foursquare tips, then order those dishes. Here: Cosmo's #1 drink (ever?)! #
• This is the closest food has ever come to bringing me to tears. Positive, happy tears. #
• @MelGreiner @marykateruf We are going to fly to Vegas together a few Sundays from now to brunch @ Bobby Flay Mesa Grill. Trust me: worth it. #
• Seeing @absinthevegas, the first show that seemed twisted enough to warrant our attention. #
• I seem to have been cut off by @foursquare after accumulating 400+ points in under 72hrs. Pity they don't have a "Vegas" setting. #
• @romez It was out of the blue, too…not in the midst of a 15-checkin @foursquare binge through a mall like this morning ;) i'll send receipts in reply to romez #
• @brimil definitely have had @foursquare put me on pause if I try to rapid fire a few stores to catch up with a mall binge, but not for hrs. in reply to brimil #
• @brimil i'm sure @foursquare & @dens don't want three day outlet binges to demoralize regular users too much. Have you seen my score? ;) in reply to brimil #
• @amyisarockstar omg, so extremely true in reply to amyisarockstar #
• @SteveCizzle <3 in reply to SteveCizzle #
• #absinthevegas 3mins of amazing acrobatics, then forced, fake raunch, if you need to work your oppression out in a circus tent setting. Bad #
• @bengarvey A bit too long, as far as I'm concerned. Only seem to enjoy it until about 2pm. in reply to bengarvey #
• @bengarvey Yes, so very gorgeous! Definitely our fav. We like the shopping & architecture but are done as soon as it is drunks & neon. in reply to bengarvey #
• I am trying to think of any other show, movie, or concert I have walked out of. Surely it has occurred. I'm sure @not_pele can think of one. #
• I suppose my issue with #absinthevegas is it was forced. Good cabaret, raunchy or not, shouldn't have to try so very hard so very quickly. #
• @TheAbsintheShow Hoped for titillating but got sophomoric from MC's take on Tony Clifton via Andrew Dice Clay. I left during his monologue. in reply to TheAbsintheShow #
• Circus Circus being a kids amusement center is pretty much the final nail in this vacation. #
• @MaryeStew when your entire party has champagne for their slushies it is slightly more entertaining. Also, the rollercoaster was fun. in reply to MaryeStew #
• Bringing a bottle of champagne on a multiple loop roller-coaster is not the wisest strategy, but it makes for a very comedic uncorking later #
• Have walked 1.5x the length of the strip, now dressed to maximum hotness to try to find a club with good music. #
• Plenty of sexy dancing to ring in @not_pele anniversary. By me, of course ;) http://t.co/mBoAqrPR #
• PS: I can absolutely chalk this newfound dancefloor stamina up to Zumba. I have to buy my instructor some kind of gift. Wow. #
• @MelGreiner Oh lord, what a mess that was. in reply to MelGreiner #
• @ajohnsru I have so many blog topics! We need to pressure them to upgrade uw to once a week! in reply to ajohnsru #
• @geekadelphia @VirginAmerica Just heard the breaking news that Virgin is flying non-stop PHL to SFO? Way to cheer us up about our next vaca! in reply to geekadelphia #
• Still being discriminated against by @foursquare for being an efficient shopper on a fab vacation ;) – I swear, I will send them my receipts #
• @kerrihomsher D0 we have a tiny new member of the IBX SM team yet? Your west coast affiliate demands an update! :) #
• Must start drafting my 1st post as guest-blogger @ibxhealthysteps yet Vegas not exactly the most inspirational place for healthy blog topics #
• Our plane will not take off. They are being very nice about it, but the fact of the matter is we are trapped in Las Vegas. #
• @onebabytwomoms love that video. Haven't heard the new one yet, should be waiting for me when we get home ;) in reply to onebabytwomoms #
• @gloriabell Lots of chances to exercise, but the food choices were a challenge at times. in reply to gloriabell #
• Learning that US Airways has very well-meaning employees, but not-so-great communications & terrible, maybe verging-on nonfunctional planes. #
• Flight to Vegas was an utter sauna. Return flight grounded due to an inexplicable smell. US Airways not so great at the "air" part of name. #
• Meanwhile, US Airways told us to leave bags & deplane (never trust that) & while we were happy to step off, people now without $, food, meds #
• Again, way better than most airport horror stories, but still frustrating as we all anxiously await departure of our 9am PT USAirways flight #
• US Airways crisis mgmt line seems to be "we have people working behind the scenes to help you." I'd like to see some front of scenes help. #
• Allow me to emphasize that the airline safety aspect of this situation is fantastic.Mostly mystified by the crisis response by US Airways. #
• In other news, I found a pair of sunglasses that makes the entire world appear improved. I have not taken them off in 2 days except to sleep #
• Still at the airport. I read the entirety of The Psychopath Test. It was light & very compelling, like a good, funny Wired magazine article. #
• More US Airways hilarity: next plane has no running water for flight ("you can USE toilet, you just can't flush toilet or wash your hands") #
• Picture I'm getting is US Airways has a fleet that could drop out of the air at any moment & flustered employees trying to explain it away. #
• All the more reason to be excited that @VirginAmerica will soon fly more out of PHL – an airline that takes its brand name/image seriously! #
• (Of course, after this trip I will not be travelling again until it is time to accept my first Grammy Award, so the point is moot.) #
• I have not been this happy to return to Philly in years. #
• @lydiahirt It never lost focus towards the end like a lot of non-fiction with a thesis does. Also, he was good about interconnecting stories in reply to lydiahirt #
• @McDonalds You are slowly killing America. I have no interest in your promoted tweets, but I hope by replying I am driving up their cost. in reply to McDonalds #
• Good morning! Loving everything about Philly now that I'm back. What do you look forward to the most about home@ the end of a long vacation? #
• @anniemal Absence and cities with higher costs of living ;) in reply to anniemal #
• @SocialBrown That's certainly a major thing to miss. It's being without those most routine things that can make vacations hard to enjoy. in reply to SocialBrown #
• Insightful & true w/good examples RT @RobertCollins Top 5 Qualities of Productive Creatives (& How to Identify) http://t.co/k3PywzDi #
• @SocialBrown I was sure you would be gone already! Can't wait to see you for one more day of #SoMe ;) in reply to SocialBrown #
• @bengarvey You and me both! Though, I will miss my 3mi walk each morning with a break for Jamba Juice ;) in reply to bengarvey #
• @paullucci Happy Thursday, Paul! in reply to paullucci #
• @MaryeStew Oh, how I grew to hate jail. Kicked in just as we arrived at Fremont St. Should have been able to top 900pts on the trip. in reply to MaryeStew #
• @ibx Disappointing that Personal Health Profile insists you MUST eat dairy to be considered healthy. Not friendly to those w/modified diets. #
• @MaryeStew It should have some sort of "Vegas" setting. Or at least a special Shopping Mall Bonanza that gives you an hour of turbo checkins in reply to MaryeStew #
• @MaryeStew Because, truly, even in a trip where I'm actively buying things in every store, I'm only spending 5-10mins in each one. in reply to MaryeStew #
• So excited to get back to making music tonight with @filmstarband! One of the main reasons I dislike vacations is the lack of music-making. #
• Great Godin article on Kodak, SOPA. RT @thornybleeder Knock, knock, it’s the future. Why not ban digital cameras too? http://t.co/xV9ZSt09 #
• I was just in a highly corporate meeting where X-Men were mentioned no less than THREE times. #WorksWithCrazyPeople (who I LOVE) #
