Since Hil's advisor is a jerk, he probably thinks it's a way to toughen her up.
I do not like this person.
Beth reminds me that I need to work on my elevator speech. Sigh.
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

I am wide awake and have no idea why. Like, not even vaguely tired.

Would it have been so difficult to tell me sometime before he walked in?
Ugh - nightmare. Your advisor sounds like an idiot. What's your research area?
Here's a youtube link I woke up to. I think everyone should wake up to it. Awesome start to the day. [link]

Combinatorics. Hopf algebras, mostly.

Ah. I'd love to say something good about that, but I barely recognise the words, so I'll say "mmm" in a tone that suggests I understand. (I do social sciences. We're not very clever. Elevator pitch is easy though. "I research representations of disability in healthcare." Two seconds.)

Congrats, Aims! Superb grades. And congrats to David's team as well.
Kristin, I was so glad to hear about your father.
Barb and Jilli and Hil - tons of good luck, to each with her own.
I should get ready. Will leave soon, to my dentist (and in good time. That place where the jaws meet in under a hell lot of tense, and I didn't sleep well the past two nights).
Also, I'm considering to start a twitter account, for pure scientific experiment. I should first define my variables and methods, but I already have an agenda.
Also also, I suspect some guy who's in one of my history class has a thing for me. Which is great, because hey, the guy? Is hot. I'm wondering now how to encourage him and lure him in my general bed direction.

Twitter terrifies me. I find Facebook quite complicated enough. (This may well be a sign that I'm getting old.)
Hot boy! Enjoy :)

Oh, I'm not on FB - it terrifies me.
Twitter should be easier to handle (not a lot of spare time here), and actually help me explore academic theory (Actor Network Theory) - that's how I got the idea in the first place, though I know the web isn't the real world (what's up with that, really?). Yeah, I'm doing wonderful with staying away from structuralism, me. Pfft.
And I only suspecting the hot guy. Not even close to be sure, but he sure is nice to me.

Do that. It is evil. I like critical theory, myself. ANT's an interesting approach too.
You can do work via twitter? How is this so?
