Too late. My dislike of tranferring planes won out. - Jaclyn Bedoya
Oh, man. Ima pray for you then. Mebe they've improved things up there since 2009? - t. The Lethargic Honeybee
Historians & computer scientists working on an international "big data" project? Color me interested: http://tradingconsequences.blogs.edina.ac.uk/
K, plane & registration for CiL sorted. (Hedgehog already took care of the hotel). Registration for ER&L done. Just need Austin plane tix!
RT @ostephens: Repeating Q from this morning ... anyone got egs where for an e-resource you have to choose a delivery 'platform' for it when you subscribe?
He's looking for ejournal packages (I already suggested MLA as a database). Couldn't think of any off the top of my head, but y'all are clever so you probably can. - Jaclyn Bedoya

Yay, first draft done. Even if it bears no resemblance to the prospectus I turn in, at least I've got something on paper, right?!

"I'm going to rock this! Watch!" <--what I wish I could say in my propectus. Well, I guess I will, just with 1494 more words.
Ooh, a job at LOCKSS. I love my job, but that sounds lots of fun. http://www.norcalherc.org/c...
Medlibs & other smart people: what're the best places online to check out doctors? We have a choice between two but no idea who is "better."
Honestly, I'm not enamored of any of the online "rating" systems, and am not convinced they give you any actionable information about who is "better" except in the extreme cases. Many also have only a couple of responses for a given provider, so the sample is pretty small and biased. Your state probably has a licensure verification database online (esp. through it's dept of health... more... - Rachel Walden
There's a girl scout who lives down the street. This is not going to be good for my wallet, methinks.
My older niece is a GS. They have boxes and boxes of the cookies in their house right now. It's a dangerous place to walk into. - Kirsten

I couldn't understand why all of my social networks & recipe feeds were about finger foods. Then I remembered football.
Hrm - libs going for tenure. Do you explain what your *job* is in your supporting docs? Seems like faculty won't know what you do otherwise.
I can almost taste the pot roast I left in the crock pot this morning.
But I don't *wanna* do these meeting minutes. Maybe I'll get ice cream after as a reward. #grown
Yay, got some partners in crime! - Jaclyn Bedoya
First time in several years we're not doing Burns Night. Never did find a good vegetarian haggis recipe.
Vegetarian haggis? What's left? - Eivind
oats? - ellbeecee
Yeah, the one we tried last year had Marmite and steel cut oats, but it just didn't taste right. The non-veggie haggis (ordered online) was ok, but nothing spectacular. Maybe next year we'll have forgotten what authentic tastes like, and we'll be happier :). - Jaclyn Bedoya
Come to think of it, it's the first time in years that I'm not celebrating Burns. For a while there, I was involved in 4-5 per year lol - Brent from iPhone
"I'm guessing this is just a web-coding glitch that can be easily corrected." <--from librarian, re: vendor database problem. Laugh or cry?
Need a good ebook or three to take on our trip this weekend. Any recs? #readersadvisory
What do you like to read? I just devoured all four Flavia de Luce books in a week of winter break. They're by Alan Bradley and feature a smart, weird 11-year-old chemist/poisoner/sleuth. But you might have different taste than me. - Kaijsa
I'll read most things. Will check those out, thanks! - Jaclyn Bedoya
The Magicians. A Harry Potter for the ones who like words. - Lnorigb from FFHound!
Bossypants- Tina Fey I loved it so much. Finished it in two days - Lnorigb from FFHound!
Kraken by Wendy Williams. It's about squid and way more fun than you might think. - Katy S
Blood, Bones, and Butter by Gabrielle Hamilton -- the audiobook is read by her, and I think it conveys more than the print - anna
Nothing like an email from an old friend to cheer up a morning!
Ooh, and my parking ticket appeal was accepted! Today is looking up :)
Twitter broken again. Le sigh.
