Advanced Style: Age and Beauty. A very short and charming little video about the amazing personal fashion styles of some older women. You should watch it – these ladies are amazing! I can’t wait to be like that when I grow up. And I covet those leopard-print sunglasses…

Resting & knitting happening. Also, I appear to have given Snook the same illness as an early birthday present. So add in a side of guilt!
@Justacogitating I liked it. But it’s very much of a particular style and time. Don’t read *anything* about it beforehand if you can.
@dancingman Please do. There’s another Jonathan Feldman there who has friended me, and I keep thinking it’s you but it’s SO NOT.
@dancingman You’re in! π
I’m the sick one, yet this bag of guts has been sleeping on top of me all day. http://instagr.am/p/Is02m/
@lemon_lime Neither of us is as congested as you were (yet). Mostly tiredness, headache, swollen glands, achiness…
@witty_knitter @justjussi What, I’m Twitter-contagious now? Sheesh. π
@Opheli8 Whaaa? I haven’t seen a GuG meeting in years. No idea, maybe do a search so at least you can see them all?
The sickness continues. I’m now in the Mucus Phase, and the Snook is catching up too. Trying to decide whether to postpone his b-day dinner.
@AusVintageGrrl It’s not til tomorrow night. We’ll give it another 24 hours, I guess. No point paying $50 for a steak you can’t taste!

@lemon_lime Yeah, I’m actually feeling a bit better. No headache. Just don’t want to get snot on the whole office…
@Opheli8 Why did you add them all as individual events??

@knitabulous @dianemulholland Don’t bother! Unless you’re a sprinter, will make no difference. Def nothing new on race day!
@knitabulous Just wear it once ahead of time! Just don’t want to find it itches or bunches or rubs in the race!
@knitabulous Bodyglide! Get it at running or hiking store. My fave. π
@knitabulous Definitely!
New role: getting invited to Big Important Meetings is fun, but my average time in the office is going up too…
@gilmae Watch the spoilers! But also WORD. And then somebody awesome kill Theon. Twerp deserves it. (I’m 30% into Bk 3.)
@gilmae @drkknits How about the creepy sister propositioning? ICK FACTOR 11.
@gilmae @drkknits When you’re a total Creepy Sleazebag who tries to pick up Everybody with Tits, you’re bound to hit a relative eventually!
@drkknits @gilmae I do like the name Damphair. There’s a possible Halloween costume in that…
@drkknits @gilmae Up to you! Rodd is resisting my idea that he go as John Snow and I’d be a dead wilding White Walker.
@drkknits @witty_knitter @gilmae That was going to be the fun of Damphair: trying to offer you all to the Drowned God via a water pistol.
@randomknits @gilmae @drkknits My take is an Evil, Sexy, Red-Robed pseudo-Christian. Like Sarah Palin.
@randomknits @gilmae @drkknits You’d need a fake pregnancy belly though so you could re-enact the scene that had me SHRIEKING at Kylie.
@drkknits Did we just come up with Sarah Palin independently of each other? PSYCHIC.
@witty_knitter We’ll stop. You don’t need to be tempted into reading them now or you’ll never finish your phd. π
I am going to forgo this fun discussion in favour of some knitting, which I rarely do anymore, mostly because I hate Theon Greyjoy so much.
One last thing @drkknits: Tonight I learned that @gilmae likes all the WORST characters. Now we know which side he’s on! *shudder*
@witty_knitter Once I finish it, I’ll tell you if it deserves to be on your list. It’ll be a few years. π
@witty_knitter @drkknits It was on HBO recently, and now it’s on some Foxtel here. Or we could, uh, hook you up. Ahem. It’s very good.
@witty_knitter Have you seen Sean Bean posing heroically with a sword on half of Sydney’s buses? That’s the one.
That’s right – 2 POUNDS of bulgogi marinating away in the fridge. Who wants to be at my house tomorrow night, huh? (@carbolicious)
@devindawson Hey Devin – sorting out the MeFi Health Month team. I can’t see your MeFi profile to verify you. Can you send me a link?
My mystery tiredness has been solved: I’m sick! I’m gonna go back to bed.

Girl Geek Dinner
Another video! A few weeks ago the Snook and I went to Google for the latest Girl Geek Dinner. The talks were excellent and we had a lot of fun. (I even won a Computer Engineer Barbie!) While we were there, the organiser Kellie asked if I’d mind being interviewed for a little video they were putting together. Here it is…

The Ship Song Project
Wow. To celebrate the Sydney Opera House, a number of Australia’s most famous musicians got together at the House to record a cover of Nick Cave’s “The Ship Song.” It seriously gave me shivers.
I also really, really like Amanda Palmer’s version…

@witty_knitter I actually put on lippie for a big partner meeting this arvo. I’d be disgusted with myself except I look SO DAMN CUTE! *sigh*
RT @witty_knitter: @web_goddess Pics or it didn’t happen. // Who, li’l ol’ me? *giggle* http://twitpic.com/5w1gw2
Aaaand now I’m gonna put on some trackies and comfortable shoes, wash my face, and make a meatloaf. #stillme
@witty_knitter Eh, I don’t know nothin’ about glamour. That’s the domain of our @redambition. I just pretend every now and then…
@witty_knitter I love the pose! As Tyra would say: FIERCE!
@drkknits @kunaal84 Hey, I think booty calls are awesome! Especially when they’re with awesome people (like his GF). π
Made a beautiful dinner tonight… then nearly barfed when I ate it. No idea. Can’t be food poisoning, Snook is fine. Maybe getting sick?
@knitness You can’t scare me with the virtually impossible. π
@witty_knitter @Diepdin Had to go back through tweets to see why I was being mentioned! All the lesbians love me. It’s my super power. π
@redambition Alas, J.Lo and he have announced they’re splitting. Is nothing sacred?
Toodledo has redesigned, and the shock of it made me gasp. This is going to take some getting used to. http://bit.ly/pzKOVO
Just watched the Ship Song Project video: http://bit.ly/ngC27B. So beautiful. I love living here. (But I still like @amandapalmer’s best.)
@steven_noble I can mostly avoid those. π
