@themslyss You might have to come back here, I don’t think I’m done excitedly hugging you. in reply to themslyss 2013-04-28
@CheapGN Happy to know it’s a help! The Reading Order was quite an undertaking. I’m sure you’ll let me know when Affiliate stuff is underway in reply to CheapGN 2013-04-28
The Great Expectations cover of Back to Black is a travesty. Dig the idea behind the arrangement, but the vocals are incongruous to the song 2013-04-28
At one point Andre and Beyonce are just straight up out-of-tune to each other, it’s like nails on a chalkboard. 2013-04-28
@mikeyil @bengarvey How did we make it through the whole party last night and not talk to each other about this? ;) in reply to mikeyil 2013-04-28
Good morning! It’s my first day @RJMetrics, helping companies make data-driven decisions! Don’t think Monday morning gets much more exciting 2013-04-29

@JamesHunt Hah. So true. in reply to JamesHunt 2013-04-29
Also, listening to @jtimberlake‘s “Mirrors” on repeat to figure out how I’m going to both sing AND beatbox on it to play with @smashleydubs. 2013-04-29
@mayasalloum Thank you! Huge new challenges I can’t wait to tackle. in reply to mayasalloum 2013-04-29
@themslyss Don’t make me come over there and hug you again. It’s, like, two more El stops ;) in reply to themslyss 2013-04-29
@sarcasmically 1st few episodes on @netflix successfully repelled us. We almost bailed on Fringe, too, but friends said to skip to end of S2 in reply to sarcasmically 2013-04-29
@ibxhealthysteps Clearly we all need to eat some more NJ-grown blueberries! in reply to ibxhealthysteps 2013-04-29
@SmashleyDubs Don’t forget the harmony on TI-TAAAAAN-IIIIII-UM! in reply to SmashleyDubs 2013-04-29
@SmashleyDubs I might have to sing a chorus on “Mirrors,” it’s just too good to resist. But sooooo high. in reply to SmashleyDubs 2013-04-29
@SmashleyDubs I love how it only took a year to get you to subscribe to the Arcati Crisis “make it harder” philosophy of perfoming music ;) in reply to SmashleyDubs 2013-04-29
Hello, my pretty. http://t.co/cvQ6JPcWpv 2013-04-29
@DrTimony Thanks! And, check out http://t.co/StgV4m19yp, several positions open right now! in reply to DrTimony 2013-04-29
Three hours in and I have elected myself as a proofreader, as needed. This should surprise absolutely no one who has ever met me. 2013-04-29
Thought my new office had a unisex bathroom, like Ally McBeal. Turns out I’ve just been using the Women’s room. 2013-04-29
@CharlesFey That’s just the only bisexual bathroom I could think of in a pinch. Which maybe validates your comment? Unsure. in reply to CharlesFey 2013-04-29
@inflammatorywrt All of the thanks! Also, there’s a post caught in limbo somewhere about our 1st studio EP coming out next month ;) in reply to inflammatorywrt 2013-04-29
Not loving the crazy-sharp edges below the trackpad on MacBook Pro, but I guess that’ll get me out of the habit of resting my thumbs there. 2013-04-29
It is so ridiculously exciting to be around people talking about SQL queries all day. I kinda forgot how much I love data manipulation. 2013-04-29
@aworldgoesnova You and me both. in reply to aworldgoesnova 2013-04-29
@shunmahoney Day 1 as a Mac. Only locked myself out of my AppleId twice. You never mentioned that the dark side included so many gestures. 2013-04-29
@bpiel Seems like, eh? in reply to bpiel 2013-04-29
@audreyanderson_ OMG, do you go to Samurai Hibachi? It is our fav. The sushi is better than most places in Philly. in reply to audreyanderson_ 2013-04-29
@audreyanderson_ As gorgeous as you looked in the pink dress for the first prom, you and the blue dress are simply divine together. xo in reply to audreyanderson_ 2013-04-29
@adamsconsulting I remember switching to Google from MetaCrawler! That was the first good post-Index search I recall. in reply to adamsconsulting 2013-04-29
@polymwac You’re EVERYWHERE I go… in reply to polymwac 2013-04-29
Both @not_pele & I independently decided the 1st book baby should hear us read while in the womb is Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Nerds. 2013-04-29
@AmyZQuinn @polymwac @PhillyGuyDave @bengarvey Hitchhiker’s reading began last evening. I do a very good Prosser and Guide. Unsure on Ford. 2013-04-30
Good morning! Excited for Day 2 @RJMetrics; think I might know enough to help out. Or break something. Possibly both. Should be interesting. 2013-04-30
@jtramsay Thank you, sir! A whole new host of challenges for me to learn from after 10yrs in health care. in reply to jtramsay 2013-04-30
It’s official: I discovered an actual bug on my first day. I think that means I have web cred or something. I dunno. I feel cool, at least. 2013-04-30
Who eats Bimbimbap smothered in hot sauce w/chopsticks while wearing a white shirt? @jthandy. I mean, leapt from a plane, but that’s nervy. 2013-04-30
I have self control about many snacks, but I don’t know if I can deal with a virtually unlimited amount of string cheese in the fridge. 2013-04-30
@brimil I don’t care about church, but it’s disgusting that a city would even ask to knock down 2 historic community buildings for a stadium in reply to brimil 2013-04-30
My second iPod Classic in a row with a dead headphone jack after less than 2yrs of use. They aren’t exactly priced to be disposable, either. 2013-04-30
@platypusjones Last one I could’ve blamed on our car adaptor molesting it, but this one has no excuse. Pity there’s no viable alternative. in reply to platypusjones 2013-04-30
@platypusjones I’ll probably outgrow Classic by the end of the year; hope the Touch gets bigger, but HD-based collections are on the way out in reply to platypusjones 2013-04-30
@jayvert @platypusjones if I could find a cloud system that had all my tracks and can learn my ratings i’d be in, but that’ll never happen. in reply to jayvert 2013-04-30
@mikeyil @jayvert @platypusjones $125/yr is pretty reasonable to hear my entire collection when/where-ever. Might start hoarding Classics. in reply to mikeyil 2013-04-30
@jayvert @mikeyil @platypusjones 28kish? At least 10% of that is official boots, indie, local, and my own demos. in reply to jayvert 2013-04-30
@mikeyil @jayvert @platypusjones I’ve picked up pretty much every major release from the last 5-6 years. Might finally taper that down. in reply to mikeyil 2013-04-30
Loved, & not just for irony: Devs leak cracked version of game-building game where players always lose due to piracy. http://t.co/2jOcO7PvSP 2013-04-30
Good morning! The week is flying by for me @RJMetrics as I immerse myself in relational DBs. What new thing have you learned this week? 2013-05-01
@JamesHunt Congratulations! We’re also due this yearm and watching the heart on ultrasound was absolutely transfixing. in reply to JamesHunt 2013-05-01
@marykateruf I had something to bring in for you and forgot, and now my badge is surrendered! We’ll have to do lunch next week. 2013-05-01
Solved my 1sy 2 customer questions (mostly) all by myself! I don’t know if I’ve ever had a new role where I’ve felt this empowered this fast 2013-05-01
Sent my final farewell to the fine folks @ibx. It was an amazing 10yrs supporting the health & wellness of the Philly community. Excelsior! 2013-05-01
@polymwac Just know that every media version is incredibly different from the next. A template for modern variations like Walking Dead. in reply to polymwac 2013-05-01
@polymwac The audio probably matches the book, but all the other versions vary distinctly from each other: radio, BBC, videogame, movie, etc in reply to polymwac 2013-05-01
@polymwac BBC did a mini-series in the early 80s that is effectively a movie. in reply to polymwac 2013-05-01
@shunmahoney I know! I’m going down to the wire with a few final emails. It’s a race against the big blue clock. in reply to shunmahoney 2013-05-01
Just sent out the final @ibx email with my signature on it and shut down my remote connection for the last time. End of an era. 2013-05-02
@MelGreiner I totally wasn’t sad until I put my IBX sig onto my final email just now. Then, finally, some tears. 2013-05-02
Good morning! Someone I wait for Septa with just assumed that I’m a college student. Did not correct. Blessed be these elfin genes of mine. 2013-05-02
@valkrye131 1/2 college student, 1/2 my age, or 1/2 elf? ;) in reply to valkrye131 2013-05-02
@brimil @CBSPhilly One time 15%? Probably not. Continued base raise % or higher 401k match? Sure. I brand myself after my company, anyway. in reply to brimil 2013-05-02
@bengarvey If I didn’t know you were married with kids I don’t think I would’ve had any concept of how old you were. in reply to bengarvey 2013-05-02
@taramurtha Well, that’s the grossest sentence I’ll read today. in reply to taramurtha 2013-05-02
And the worst sentence of today is…RT @taramurtha “It’s more like engineering or Lego than cooking. It’s boy stuff”-This month’s Vanity Fair 2013-05-02
@Cecilyk Whoa. A flight on @virginair is pretty pleasant to begin with before you add an empty seat. in reply to Cecilyk 2013-05-02
@styleprdiva Wait, for a CARRY ON? Isn’t it enough they charge to even check a bag now? in reply to styleprdiva 2013-05-02
@bengarvey That’s pretty awesome ;) in reply to bengarvey 2013-05-02
@taramurtha Given that I know more female than male architects and engineers the sentence is just patently silly. Utter ignorance. in reply to taramurtha 2013-05-02
In other news, holy crap, this David Bowie LP is just as mindblowing after a month of listening. If you’re a fan you need it…one of his best 2013-05-02
@jmooreconrow I’ve loved every one of his post Tin Machine LPs, but there is something special about how this one hangs together. in reply to jmooreconrow 2013-05-02
@iMike_Sarnoski Apparently the button is just a polite fiction on newer elevators, does nothing in reply to iMike_Sarnoski 2013-05-02

@mikeyil I already know at least one of the post-credits, have a guess at the other. I think it’s too early for Fury, this is Phase II pt1 in reply to mikeyil 2013-05-02
Doing PHP at work. Also doing some copywriting later. In the middle, doing Account Mgmt. My life is officially flipped turned upside down. 2013-05-02
@marykateruf @saranmatthews Gah, I do not know how to go an entire day without checking IBX email, even with a thousand new things to do. 2013-05-02
@jayvert Seeing them a lot in my new office, will inquire. in reply to jayvert 2013-05-03
Delivered my first company-wide update to @RJMetrics! It included some strategy and this photo of a baby elephant: http://t.co/nlYBg3TCcG 2013-05-03
@ajohnsru @KeithJonesNBC10 @Zagat Yes! That’s actually @ericsmithrocks book release party, as shot by @mikeyil. Fav pics of me, ever in reply to ajohnsru 2013-05-03
@SarahRobinson That’s not only skill, but also confidence ;) in reply to SarahRobinson 2013-05-03
Trying to choose a toaster based on Amazon product reviews is the hardest thing in the world. We’ve been trying for three years now. 2013-05-04
@jmooreconrow We were all over the Breville train, but every 1-Star review is like “They explode and have terrible customer service.” in reply to jmooreconrow 2013-05-04
I didn’t think this was possible, but I might hate shopping at Babies-R-Us more than I do Walmart. 2013-05-04
The man who taught Marilyn Monroe to sing: http://t.co/474UVkO9n7 2013-05-04
Roving gang of kids banged on our door, ran over everyone’s yards screaming. Asked police if they’d come and do a lap. Hate not feeling safe 2013-05-04
Seems like a little thing, but this sort of little thing is what lead to the harassment that caused us to move out of South Philly. Oh, life 2013-05-04
