  1. Fetus loves Virgin America. Been knocking around in there for a *lot* of the flight. Maybe it's a NY baby who want to go back.
  2. can't escape @mattbucher this weekend. At #footnotes conf. saw him with @dllh et alium and today read http://is.gd/51gHS at airport. Nifty.
  3. Footnotes conference rocked the new directions in David Foster Wallace studies. Here's hoping journals publish some of it.
  4. Mind had been blown. At a NY apartment where the books are shelved according to binding color. Most exciting thing I've seen in months.
  5. There's just something inherently trustworthy about a person who still plays vinyl. And the obverse about someone who wears it.
  6. @dllh I was afraid of that. No age with children is easy. Dammit. Is this why gypsies are out of the child-buying business?
  7. Why small publishers will win: quality and passion. RT @mattbucher When you have MBAs *wanting* to work in publishing, you're screwed.
  8. See the Men Who Stare at Goats. Full theater, I was the only one who laughed so hard so often that people glared. Terrible, hilarious movie.
  9. Just when it can't get any worse, they turn 2. Then it can't, and they're 3. When does the "crap, it just got worse" end?
  10. @makingthingsup Of course, you've done the same. Several times. But I'm a huge fan of playing the pancreas card lately.
  11. @badmommymoments broke it? Gee, that would be swell timing, eh? I split open a knee one winter in Boston and spent ice season on crutches.
  12. I lopped a 25 page article into 12 pages this week. And made a pancreas. What did you do?
  13. @badmommymoments why are you in the ER?
  14. Then have VA tell the rest of the country. RT @mattbucher Dear Virginia: the death penalty is not a deterrent.
  15. plagiarized self = fail RT @McSweeneysBooks Standards for Grading the Life of an Adjunct Composition Professor. http://bit.ly/4vzFqW
  16. Unwilling hostage to loud teenager conversation across the room...it's officially creepy when teens call parents "Mommy" and "Daddy."
  17. Congress to take away women's health care rights, so let's mandate vasectomies for all men in Congress. Anti-choice is now pro-snip.
  18. Composing snark letter to neighbors re: excess of cookie crunch in Halloween haul and relative lack of nougat.
  19. one for you @kymikymi RT @McSweeneysBooks The Police Blotter Shakespeare: http://bit.ly/19SWZH
  20. Yeah it does. RT @McSweeneysBooks "The linguistic construction of post-capitalist hegemony recapitulates the engendering of print culture."
