Haven’t left the couch all day. @the_snook is a very good nurse though.
@kunaal84 Twilight Fail Round 2. I’m still sick, and @drkknits is going to stay home. We know you’re crushed.
@drkknits @kunaal84 “Crunching noises” and possible seizures? I CAN’T WAIT. http://t.co/qSKEazIE (cc @randomknits)
@carbocommander Welcome back! You and @carbolicious should be sure to follow @the_snook. 🙂
Antibiotics knocking me out. Supposed to go to @Kat13v’s big party tonight, but I’m not sure I’ll make it… 🙁
RT @ebertchicago: The writer of “Twilight” tells all about the sex scene, the birth scene, and whether it’s a “uterus” or a “baby.” http …
@alyshajane David Jones Food Hall has a selection of American foods. And the Blue Plate in Neutral Bay is doing T’giving dinner tonight!
@Epaulette Heh. Nah, I don’t know anybody who actually makes egg nog. It’s just sold pre-made in US stores. But I’m not a big fan myself…
@alyshajane “Sugar Fixx” candy shop in Myer Food Court also has some American lollies and sweet things…
@alyshajane Last tip: usafoods.com.au. Not useful for day-of purchases, but good for ordering things in advance!
Happy Thanksgiving! Invited over my adopted brothers @kunaal84 @lemon_lime @j_griego. Lots of fun! http://t.co/u8bf2mIu http://t.co/VREBHPov
After the feast, the Settlers of Catan battled it out. I won! (Kinda.) http://t.co/rEibiMO0
Fifth day of horrible sore throat. Yeah, I’m going to the doctor.
@the_snook You haz bicycle! You should ride in the rain like a bad ass!
@grannyg_in_nz Whaaaa? No way. I say “cape-let”. Cap-a-lay sounds like something you say to be funny, like Target = Tarzhay. 🙂
Doc diagnosed strep throat, gave me antiobiotics, and told me to go home. So here I sit with the cats once again. This week sucks.
Happy Thanksgiving to my adopted brothers! We had a feast and watched an old recording of the Macy’s Parade. Almost felt like home!
And then we played Settlers of Catan, which turned our feelings of warmth and community into backstabbing and bitchiness. Fun though!
Now I Know: The Great Emu War – I did not know the theory/myth that emus and kangaroos can’t go backwards.
@gusseting Hahahaha… Just saw the flag in Rav and was like, JEEZUS BEEZUS, WHAT NOW? And then I laughed and laughed. Thanks! 🙂
Invited @kunaal84 and @lemon_lime and @j_griego over for impromptu Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. Hm. Need more turkey.
@gusseting Dolly’s version is better. 🙂
@gusseting I actually opened up the Music app on my iPhone and it was ALREADY QUEUED TO THAT SONG. 😛
Just realised that rockstar knitter Eunny Jang is in my quilting circle that’s about to start! #intimidated
@bellsknits Sorry. It’s for MetaFilter members, and they closed it off a few weeks ago. Mostly US based…
@binkabookitty If you were in Sydney, I’d say YES! Damn.
My neighbours in Chippo were burgled today. Somebody pried open security bars and slipped thru front window. YIKES. (cc @mpesce)
@rachievaichie I would too, except she’ll be sewing a block for my quilt!
Twitter always weirds me out when I realise how many people actually watch TV live. It’s like seeing someone with an unironic Walkman.
RT @ebertchicago: The Oatmeal on Thanksgiving, then and now. http://t.co/q65nK4PM
Cult Unreleased Game ‘Desert Bus’ Ported to iOS in the Name of Charity | Touch Arcade – Neat! I’ve heard about this legendary game; never seen it in action.
Developer creates proxy server to control any device via Siri | 9to5Mac | Apple Intelligence – So my dream of saying, “Siri, open the front gate!” when I’ve got my hands full is that much closer to reality!
So @movemberAUS pretty much forced the Prostate Cancer Foundation to reject donations from @fauxvemberAU? THAT SUCKS. EVERYONE LOSES.
@gilmae @randomknits @knitterjp @drkknits @kunaal84 I thought it was a parable about the monstrous ickiness of motherhood, hence my interest
@kunaal84 @drkknits I played Horrify the Twilight Noob with him. @miss_reecie was even funnier. 🙂
@sharre Ha! Did you just read my comment, or did we both use that phrase independently? Too funny.
I don’t get it. I’m in a bunch of online running groups. They’re uniformly awesome and welcoming. Why are so many knitters… not? #tired
@grannyg_in_nz Haha… Never thought of that, but it makes sense. Love it! 🙂
@randomknits My parents and siblings openly referred to my first boyfriend as “The Weenie”.
@randomknits Rather cooled the ardour, I must say. Don’t underestimate the power of open mockery (assuming you don’t like him).
@Opheli8 I’ve been disappointed with sloppy Kindle book conversion. Lots of missing punctuation, bad capitalisation, etc.
@bellsknits Not dominated, but there’s definitely more of a balance. Maybe that contributes.
Australian Star Wars burlesque brings you sexy Tusken Raiders – Remember when we went to this a few months back? Great video reel here of highlights. The group has a new show on soon: “The Empire Strips Back.”
