#Introduction post:
My profession is #TechnicalEditing, my special interest is #HistoricalLinguistics. I deeply love #CompoundMorphology and #ReferenceWorks and I'm always hunting for new #CutthroatCompounds. I sing, I give talks, I do a lot of research.
I am a part of many wonderful organizations including #Wordnik, #OddSalon, #ACES, #DSNA, #ADS, and #NPL.
In 2023, I plan to read a lot of non-fiction books. #AmReading

An #OddSalon pal had me and @Matt over to play Heroes of Terrinoth. It’s a spiff cooperative game played with cards and tokens. It’s quick to learn and has neat mechanics. I’m definitely down for a repeat.

Attending a lecture on the boat. You can take the man out of #OddSalon but you can't take the Odd Salon out of the man.
#NowPlaying On the way home from #OddSalon last night, @emmie and @Matt were very patient in indulging my foray into hair metal deep cheese with White Lion's "Little Fighter":

I flew out from California just to see one of our new NY events. Come say hi!
Do you like cocktail-hour lectures about weird shit?

I’m excited to see Odd Salon branching out from our SF roots this year.
#SFBayArea folks, if you appreciate history, science, art, and adventure, I may have just the event for you. Do you also like irreverence? Whimsey?
Come on down to #OddSalon: EXPLORE tomorrow night at Public Works SF. Doors open at 6:30. Details at: https://www.oddsalon.com/salon/explore/
If you come, please find me and say hi! @Matt will be speaking to boot. We’d love to meet more.... fedifolk? Mastovites?
OK, slides are done for my #OddSalon talk on Tuesday. I still need to work on the flow in a few spots but I’m far enough along I can participate in other geekery tomorrow guilt-free.
Unfortunately I accidentally a 3am.
Wewt, I just had a talk accepted for #OddSalon Contraption on August 6.
If you're in the #SanFranciscoBayArea some on down to hear the crazy tale of the Theremin, complete with spies, a manhunt, and unrequited love.
