@rebeccawingo I thought the same thing this week! HOW DO WE TELL THEM?!

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@mimoyd1 I am in SUCH a similar phase: working out, cute clothes, and EVEN putting on a little eyeliner. I like the way you put it: Let's go with it. Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week :)

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@allthewhile1 @roopikarisam totally relate to this, @allthewhile1. Love seeing my history and DH worlds come together in this thread. @roopikarisam happy summer to you both!

Had an amazing first visit to Philly. Thanks @mcneilcenter! Connected w/ so many smart, good friends & met new conference buddies. So many new ideas after my panel & 3 invigorating days of papers & conversation on war & more pre-1865. So grateful for this intellectual community!

@jmjafrx LOVE this. This is also the energy I see so many of my students bring to my history and dh classes!

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@roopikarisam get well soon! TheraFlu was my best friend (especially before bed for a decent nights sleep!)

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@adubcovskyj ugh. so sorry.

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@BoydCothran @thejohnlegg THIS! I just gave a 45-minute talk yesterday, and I thought I needed the paper due to some stress this week. I think I could have mixed prose and outline. I ended up talking vs. reading more than I thought.

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

I had a great first WHA! So much to think about re: history, #digitalhumanities, and #digitalhistory after a great weekend with a fun group of scholars. #SanAntonio was nifty too. Hope to see you all soon, friends! #WHA2022

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

@allthewhile1 @WhaHistory So, so happy for you, Alaina! Nice to see you today! :)

[Alexis Guilbault @lexishistory]

Having a blast learning about the growing field of DH in Western History @ #WHA2022! Can't wait to feature some of these amazing scholars at UIC in the future!
