Jeffrey’s Twitter Updates for 2011-08-16

@trentmkays You know what happens when you ass – u – me ? #
@witty_knitter Yes, we have done so much damage to the earth that the unthinkable is starting to happen. #
@trentmkays If anything I feel I am always gathering more data, as if life were something to watch and not engage with. Caution! #phdchat #
@trentmkays I have started to notice I approach a good bit of experience more from an ethnographic position rather than active participant #
@trentmkays Not at all; nice to hear counter replies. #
@Lemness You well? #
@Lemness 😉 Doing well with data collection, though feel a bit behind with everything else. Alas, only so much I can do. #
@ai1sa @qui_oui Most excellent. I am about to retire as well. More to do tomorrow. #
@trentmkays Brief and off the cuff? Goodness, that was enough for your own post (and then some!!). #
@ai1sa Global warming should have been called "Global Climate Change," which would account for any of these extremes. #
@ai1sa Alas, this global warming was the worst term since compassionate conservative. #
@qui_oui I absolutely love Earl Grey. #
@savasavasava Cool!! #
@savasavasava Huh? #
@trentmkays Which ones do you disagree with? #
@savasavasava Yes, I confess I just bought my first boy band song. I think Larger Than Life would make a great trance remix. #
@DrGarcia Hey, hope spring eternal. At least on Twitter it does . . . #
@DrGarcia Yes, Twitter has changed our perception of right-now responses, huh? #
Am I really answering a Twitter contest? Like I don't have 3 research deliverables due before I leave for the UK in 2 weeks? #phdchat #
@united Jim Parsons was born in Houston #flyunitedtoemmys #
@Lemness Depends on the context? #
@gavatron I was surprised by how loud the birds were upstate NY this weekend. Wonder what they know that we don't. #
@qui_oui Got it. I use a nice British tea, though have a chocolate and vanilla (also British) that smells just lovely. #
@qui_oui What sort of tea? #
Have not been able to get Backstreet Boys' Larger Than Life out of my mind. Not sure why, never owned it, but off to iTunes I now go. #
@Shuliji 😉 #
@christiepooh Excellent. These things do seem somewhat related, ehh? #
@qui_oui Most excellent! #
@qui_oui OK, now to let it go so the bad energy flows out of us to leave us in peace. Easier to say, but perhaps repeat repeat repeat. #
@daciatakesnote I am sure it was brilliant. #unreasonablefear #phdchat #
@Shuliji Congrats! #phdchat #
@qui_oui No, only the huge quantity of journals, all of which increases the total prices #HigherEd #SarcasmFont #
@christiepooh Nothing. Perhaps there was a communication conflict or something came up. We'll see. #
Planning to see #Satyagraha http://t.co/AX9Crvu by Philip Glass for the second time at the #MetOpera may be a highlight of my season. #
@savasavasava Reminds me, I am looking forward to seeing #Satyagraha (about the life of Gandhi) again this season at the #MetOpera #NYC #
@Eingang Perhaps it is just recovery, or rather time for other things? #phdchat #
@savasavasava Not a mess; windblown. #
@witty_knitter @qui_oui Please, keep it over by you! #
RT @thesiswhisperer: A post by me on @LSEImpactBlog today: crafting a digital identity tinyurl.com/43c6ecq #phdchat #
@christiepooh I have 7 more scheduled and confirmed after today. I went over the number I planned, and it seems that was a good plan. #
@qui_oui That sense of violation, of being taken advantage of, absolutely infuriates me. I hate hate hate when one person abuses such power. #
@TallMIGirl You may want to check out #phdchat a wonderful community of those somehow connected with doctoral study. Nice group of folks. #
@TallMIGirl Keeping Tweets protected also is counter to the value of Tweeting to a world (that at times even replies). #
@TallMIGirl I tend to not follow people who keep their Tweets hidden, as that works under the false delusion that this is all private. #
@TallMIGirl Kudos, you fixed it! Congrats and welcome to Twitter. #
@savasavasava I have never ordered from Zappos. Are they really that easy to deal with? #
@BizProfZ Interesting that you see a potential gap between the two. #phd #phdchat #
@qui_oui Not to mention it was YOUR bike. I sometimes think the cost is not always the main issue. #
I have been waiting for 30 minutes, and it seems I have my first interview no-show. I suppose things do come up at times, alas. #phdchat #
@qui_oui So sorry to hear about this; awful thing to happen. #
@TallMIGirl Why do you have your Tweets protected and blocked? Come join the conversation! #
I have 2 more interviews scheduled today for my doctoral thesis research http://t.co/J1TnXTD #phdchat #highered #
Enough catch up with email (again at #InboxZero and Tweets (all read / replied to / cleared); now to prep for the office. #
@lynntrinko Indeed it is. #
RT @qui_oui: #Gender & media, resources for class/tutorial discussions (from Speculative Diction blog) http://t.co/poDp9cr #HigherEd #
@susny Nice to see you on Twitter again. #
@lynntrinko Videoconference use in which population? #phdchat #
@j_w_baker You mean there is life beyond academia 😉 #PhDchat #
@sarahthesheepu Perhaps get the bad karma out of the way to clear up the remainder of the week? #
@savasavasava I always feel I need to try shoes on before I buy them. #
@christiepooh Yes, as Vegas is known for being sane and stable. #
@sarahthesheepu At least you have network access to Tweet about it!! #
@kiwicito Best luck with it! #lol #phdchat #
@ai1sa Bundle up, but just don't burn the thesis in the fire to stay warm! #
@sarahthesheepu For what? #
@jhfrudd I think I may have enough at this point, though may just reach out to you in another week if ok. #
@jhfrudd Thanks for the kind offer, it is much appreciated. #

Just finished a 4 1/2 hour drive back to Manhattan. Horrible weather and beyond-belief traffic on a cold, rainy day #NYC #
