“I was crippled by Impostor Syndrome”: One woman’s story – If you want to understand me, you should read this. I’m not as bad as this lady, but I identify strongly with what she’s saying – especially as regards my career in IT. I always undervalue the things I’m good at and tend to disbelieve compliments when I get them. And sometimes it doesn’t help living with someone who is very clever himself. My saving grace is that there’s still a small part of my brain – maybe 15% – that is completely egotistical and thinks I’m awesome at everything. If I just listened to that part more often, I’d be unstoppable.

Woot! Taking tire off is way easier than I thought. (Also, somehow I’m covered in way more grease than everybody else.) http://t.co/efRrG630
Here’s @the_snook being all manly with the bike maintenance. http://t.co/LfNfYJwU
Took my friend @eileenDCoE and two of her Melbourne mates to @DoTheDip last night. They loved it! Jug of Watermelon Fizz was a hit.
RT @andrewsayer: Watch “Kevin Rudd is a Happy Little Vegemite” on YouTube http://t.co/KqyEgUqk
Eating my first ever kipper for breakfast. Hm. I’m not sure I like this. (It was @the_snook’s idea.)
@drkknits @mrs_sockvictim NO WAY. How cool! But $50 for a show at the Manning Bar? WTF. Totally hipster to overpay, I guess.
@drkknits @mrs_sockvictim Also, yest I found a sweet outdoor table/chair set. We were looking at it when Rodd said: “It needs a bird on it.”

The attitude of some Knitters Guild members reminds me of SNL’s Old Glory Insurance. Beware the Internet! And robots. http://t.co/vQ2Im0KJ
@drkknits I’ve been tweeting with you all damn day! Give me some credit! 😛
It’s Friday and it’s summer, and my hair is finally long enough to plait. Good day. http://t.co/fCK0hsey #pose @Gap
Am I wrong, or does @pose force users clicking FB links on mobile to install the app to see my photos? That sucks!
@Kat13v @pose Not just mobile. On desktop too, apparently. My friend is disappointed, as am I.
@drkknits @Kat13v @pose It used to link to a web view (like Instagram). I don’t like walled gardens. Going to cancel my account, I think.
@zephyrama Where? I love these. It’s like Swedish crime fiction to me.
@imdominating Nice one! Also, was it Elton John?
Had my first beers in a long time tonight to celebrate one month at the new job. They tasted GREAT.
Spotted on Broadway tonight. #hipsters http://t.co/802PToqn
So full of tapas and beer and chorizo and patatas and prawns and calamari and mushrooms… Carb coma impending. Bliss.
@mrs_sockvictim Nope, not yet. And I just woke up. 🙂
Bicycle maintenance course. Time to learn to change a tire! (@ Sydney Park C.A.R.E.S. Facility) [pic]: http://t.co/7CLRO1vE
@traveller0112 Awww, thanks! 🙂

How Your Cat Is Making You Crazy – Magazine – The Atlantic
How Your Cat Is Making You Crazy – Magazine – The Atlantic – HOLY CRAP. I was convinced reading this that both Snook and I were infected with Toxoplasmosis and it was affecting our behaviour. I mean, men wear rumpled clothes, avoid risk, and get suspicious? Women dress nicer, court risk, and get extroverted? That’s us over the past few years to a T.
Then I got to the end where they mention that indoor cats don’t get the parasite, only outdoor cats. So we don’t have it after all. Our weirdness is fully our own.
