@Astrogirl426 but they would be one extra thing I could fidget with :-)
@manspeaker if you would only promise to never screw up the past tense of lead, I would pay YOU $10.
@Astrogirl426 that is actually untrue :-) I have craved glasses since I was a kid, for no good reason. But I do love my good vision more.
@manspeaker my freelance rate is $10 per tweet whether you use all 140 characters or not. No rollovers.
@AnnieR blackout eh? So you may not be aware our currency is now rolled oats. Eased the worst of the recession but was rough on the Quakers.
@Astrogirl426 Yes I know. Hence the offline time lately. But I still need more of a break during work. The early 2009 schedule is better :-)
@AnnieR you can watch if you can't resist but you have to stand on your head while doing so. Much better perspective on the market.
@Astrogirl426 a lot of proofreading, mostly. Lots of textbooks publish at year end. I avg 100 pages of proofs per day in this first month.
@Astrogirl426 it would also help if my eyes weren't exhausted at the end of the workday. Pretty sure this job will ruin my eyesight forever.
@Astrogirl426 the move and new job have disrupted my routine significantly. I'm online a LOT less. Hope to settle after holiday travel.
@manspeaker how can anyone hate Twitter? It's too inconsequential to warrant strong feelings. But yes post-finals = prime procrastination.
@unfnshdrambler just rainy in the middle of NC tonight. Not even cold enough to call it winter.
@unfnshdrambler sure. At first I thought you were blaming me for the bad weather though ;-) Read more about the origins: http://is.gd/bgGa
@unfnshdrambler "neck of the woods" = a narrow strip of woods adjoining a larger stand back when Americans settled on this continent.
@Astrogirl426 you haven't been dumped. In the immortal words of George Costanza, it's not you, it's me. Wait, that's not right either.
@Astrogirl426 I just vomited all over your blog post. Is there a rule about comments not exceeding the length of original posts? Broke it.
@shortyawards I nominate @joeschmitt in #humor because he will beat me with sticks if I don't.
@Astrogirl426 but it helps me manage my compulsion to constantly check for replies :-) I bet my replies volume is much lower than yours too.
@Astrogirl426 PS - if you're an RSS guru and Twitter obsessive you can subscribe to feeds of replies and/or search results w/your username.
@Astrogirl426 Thanks! I always check my replies ;-)
