@bronwynah Often the simplest of things is the easiest overlooked. Cheers. in reply to bronwynah #
@noahsparks Alas, all this effort and energy working with this distracts from my #phd work in reply to noahsparks #
@noahsparks Spent time between work today navigating the wonders of insurance for our floor replacement. Too much work. in reply to noahsparks #
@ColditzJB Congrats. What is it on? #phdchat in reply to ColditzJB #
@ColditzJB What do they like about it? #phdchat in reply to ColditzJB #
@whiteoliphant What interests you about it? #phdchat in reply to whiteoliphant #
@martin_eve Have not heard that; is that what history has shown? in reply to martin_eve #
#ff for encouragement @Lemness @betsyweber @annetteclancy @TeoBishop @lindathestar @saadat_m @bronwynah @queercrip @damagedidentity @ai1sa in reply to Lemness #
May the fourth be with you http://t.co/5tx6kqoz http://t.co/gHzvNf7r #
@R3beccaF It seems wide-spread. Are there informal celebrations and whatnot today as well? in reply to R3beccaF #
@queercrip Interesting; wonder how this started? in reply to queercrip #
I feel like I went through the ringer today. What a Friday. What a week. #
Can somebody explain the "May the 4th be with you" that I hear many people talking about? #
@ictlogist I see you don't have dogs to walk in this thunder and lightening and rain #nyc in reply to ictlogist #
@bronwynah What is #GreatHallsUnite in reply to bronwynah #
@sarahthesheepu At least Friday is mostly over . . . in reply to sarahthesheepu #
@martin_eve Perhaps that is the freedom of the other 68%? in reply to martin_eve #
@damagedidentity Indeed; I can no longer write more than a page without #ScrivenerApp #phdchat in reply to damagedidentity #
@damagedidentity Quick, put a few words on it — any words will do. It will just help begin the flow #phdchat in reply to damagedidentity #
@whiteoliphant Ahh. Have you found anybody doing this yet? in reply to whiteoliphant #
@sarahthesheepu Good for you! in reply to sarahthesheepu #
@saadat_m Agreed, and that being as a professional is tough to present to assorted audiences when interdiscipline. Useful stretching. in reply to saadat_m #
@damagedidentity More with fits and starts; it takes me time to get into the mind for it, then I work until an external disruption #phdchat in reply to damagedidentity #
@DrGarcia Great terms; perhaps a useful exercise? in reply to DrGarcia #
@ai1sa I will not even try to reply to that one 😉 in reply to ai1sa #
Well, that's all the research I can do tonight. Tomorrow night to wrap up this section. Next draft off to supervisors on Saturday #phdchat #
@ai1sa Alas, done so much reading about doctoral and supervisory experiences, I feel I can supervise myself (except my writing gaps!!) in reply to ai1sa #
@ai1sa @thesiswhisperer Nonsense! However, think of all the articles you can transition it into! #phdchat in reply to ai1sa #
@DrGarcia What 3 words did you offer? in reply to DrGarcia #
@ai1sa @thesiswhisperer Perhaps something for us to aspire to?! #phdchat in reply to ai1sa #
Planning to use @thesiswhisperer's excellent "Troubling Talk: Assembling The PhD Candidate" as a transitional piece in my thesis #phdchat #
@kanter Hey, getting too close to finishing my #phd on liminal spaces in higher ed to let that one slip by! Hope you are well. in reply to kanter #
@kanter @TigoRwanda True if you are a quantitative industrialist, though that makes many assumptions regarding meaning-making challenges in reply to kanter #
Sea turtle spotted on Anna Maria island one day after nesting season began http://t.co/pkE17tF2 #
LinkedIn bought Slideshare? Interesting http://t.co/0TnUNbSM #
@bronwynah Ouch. in reply to bronwynah #
@bronwynah Hmm, interesting. What reasons were offered? in reply to bronwynah #
@bronwynah What sort of gait? in reply to bronwynah #
@bronwynah Depends on how many other options exist; that is how many early trials attract the very sick with little other hope. in reply to bronwynah #
@PleagleTrainer Nothing like a "date" where you are reminded who holds the power. Alas, where else are consumers so treated?! #phdchat in reply to PleagleTrainer #
@TeoBishop Not sure I could; too much rich diversity in individual experience to gloss over. in reply to TeoBishop #
@lindathestar Exactly #phdchat in reply to lindathestar #
@witty_knitter I am still not happy with ebooks; I like underlining. But, I now use ePDFs, so perhaps one day #phdchat in reply to witty_knitter #
@lindathestar THEN, take it as an opportunity to enlighten and educate; we all need to do that with our work #phdchat in reply to lindathestar #
@lindathestar Well . . . take it as jealousy first; who wouldn't be? 😉 #phdchat in reply to lindathestar #
@ColditzJB Not sure affordable, but I had several done at FedEx Kinko's. Send electronically and buy shipping tube when picking up #phdchat in reply to ColditzJB #
@C_J_Cage Almost there #phdchat in reply to C_J_Cage #
Finishing up a dog walk / trash throw-out / finish dishes / take vitamins / Twitter break, then one last #phd writing push #phdchat #
@raulpacheco @lisamedia Alas, it seems too common an experience #phdchat in reply to raulpacheco #
@lindathestar Jealous? #phdchat in reply to lindathestar #
