Today I started at an analytical chemistry company, so it looks like this is due an update #realtimechem https://t.co/SVjWLuknte

Hi, I'm Amanda & I'm an #ActualLivingScientist I'm a biochemist & I work in metabolic disease drug discovery #womeninSTEM #DressLikeAWoman

@RobinLJust @MassDCR I second this! Having a live(-ish) update like this means I know I'm not risking the lots being closed after the drive, and am more apt to make the trip (to any/all of the parks I like to frequent), @waldenpondstate being a favorite

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

@Doctor_PMS Yep!

My weekend reading pick for today: Midnight in Chernobyl The Untold Story of the World's Greatest Nuclear Disaster, prompted by an obsession with the new HBO show Chernobyl #goodreads #weekendreads #nonfiction

@SuperScienceGrl Congrats!!!

@Doctor_PMS I feel your pain! It’s always rewarding when someone wants to learn, but that internal, “let me start over” always sets you back a minute 😆

@Frankie_Reads I’ve ordered pizza and have a bottle opened, which I’m drinking from a mug because I’m classy like that. I’d be happy to pull out another mug if you lived closer!!!

It looks like @PeteButtigieg is gaining interest here in Boston. A six month library wait time for his ebook, "Shortest Way Home" #MayorPete #goodreads

Hi. I was followed today and it’s scary. I left a building & on the corner is a dude.”Hi.”
I acknowledge w a nod.

“What’s your name,” which I waved away & walked faster.

@Frankie_Reads Congrats!

@Frankie_Reads @infinitespeech @40winx @The_Gayest_Jess @TheBookFinch @shaegeeksout @brandyreads @PaulCToF @TheJamesChatham @renareads @Bree_TheGoddess @CepelakCory Thank you Frankie! It’s been a rough week and this made my day

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

@Frankie_Reads @Books_Pieces Yes! Do it! I put it off for a long time and it’s an amazing read. I can’t wait for the next book 📖

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

Unexpected favorite fiction read of 2018: Children of Time. Don't let the spiders dissuade you from this one, I had to repeat to myself that I would not cry in public over fictional space spiders at one point... You'll know which one #scifi #space #fiction https://t.co/jNn5O9NS0F

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

This was followed by, This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War #NonFiction #history https://t.co/4oQQycwVuD

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

Favorite non-fiction read was a tie which prompted a US history binge: John Adams #nonfiction #history https://t.co/t5ErEiUEmk

@NutritionWonk I went down this path this year too and just had my last food challenge confirming I’m free (though they have no idea what caused all the reactions). I never knew how hard having allergies actually was!

[Amanda @TangibleAnsible]

Happy new year! It’s been a rough one, but here is to new beginnings.

I’m thankful:
⭐️Husband just accepted an industry position
⭐️I had my best reading year to date, at 130 books 📚 (w/ at least 1 new fav)
⭐️My foot/ankle is stable enough I can start swimming 🏊‍♀️
