@BoreholeGroup I made it to AGU Toronto this year, but the big fall meeting is way too expensive for me. Maybe the cost is prohibitive? 6:36 PM Oct 16th from Echofon

Almost ready for the meeting! #Geoport Can't wait to steep myself in new science for a few days...looking forward to meeting bloggers, too! 11:58 AM Oct 16th from Echofon
First snowflakes today. Grr. Fortunately, I will be fleeing to Portland in a few days. 5:40 PM Oct 15th from Echofon
@rbrossfield Unfortunately I haven't, but I wouldn't pass up the chance. Try the Volcanism Blog for news - they're really good with updates! 5:39 PM Oct 15th from Echofon in reply to rbrossfield
Writing about Galeras. Spent time in Utah this summer instead of visiting Galeras for a volcano conference. *Sigh.* (Utah was still fun...) 5:15 PM Oct 13th from Echofon
@clasticdetritus Ah, the fine art of procrastination. If you time it right, I think it makes for pretty good (and very motivated) work. 12:33 PM Oct 13th from Echofon
Why do I never think that my talks are good enough? Must be everyone's lunch-induced drowsiness making me nervous. One more left today... 11:22 AM Oct 9th from Echofon
@Yorrike Good! Post a link so we can join in the ridicule. (There are a bunch of planetary folks around here who will get a kick out of it.) 7:29 AM Oct 9th from Echofon
@DNAPL Pete and Travis are definitely still around, and Travis has saved my computer's miserable little life a number of times now. 10:01 AM Oct 7th from Echofon
Wow, Buffalo weatherpeople really like the term "lake effect". LE wind, LE snow, LE rains of tadpoles...the possibilities are endless! 5:36 AM Oct 7th from Echofon
@DNAPL We're in the process of moving and kicking out the Pharmacy folks, but it won't happen until next year because of all the asbestos. 5:35 AM Oct 7th from Echofon
Research has totally stalled because I'm trying to keep up with classes. Next semester = no classes, because I've got to get something done. 5:35 AM Oct 6th from Echofon
Oh yeah, and a total lack of Twittering on top of that. 5:18 PM Oct 4th from Echofon
It's all math this semester...math and modeling and not getting much research done because of classes. Can I go back to the field, please? 5:17 PM Oct 4th from Echofon
I've got it! The Disney animators thought Jamestown was on the West coast! That explains all the mountains and waterfalls. ;) 6:57 PM Sep 13th from Echofon
Crap! All the other people in my department are staying with friends for GSA. Do any bloggers want to be my friend and split a room? 1:08 PM Sep 8th from Echofon
And here comes the traditional "I'm going to GSA and I need a hotel room and they're all gone" stage of fall semester... 9:10 AM Sep 8th from web
Gah. Hate that feeling that you're slacking if you try to enjoy vacation. Guess my life really is turning into a PhD comic. 8:39 PM Aug 4th from Echofon
