The Nag’s Head is surprisingly packed on this cold and rainy night. Dinner w/ Snook & @eileenDCoE, then Sampson & Sharkey time!
Got S&S to play Psycho Killer. “I hate people when they’re not polite.” Best night ever.

@knitness Loving the updates, Ness! 😀
@knitterjp Good luck with the presentation! You’ll kick its ass.
Waiting at Syd airport. So funny that all the big int’l flights land at same time in the morning. Like being on Fantasy Island.

Sexy Disney Princes
Sexy Disney Princes, drawn in their underwear. Rowr! Yeah, a little disturbing, mostly because the guys in those stories are like sexless Ken dolls. I like that Prince Philip wears boxer briefs.

@VenessaHunt If all symptoms are above the neck, go for it. If your chest is involved, it’ll just make it worse. 🙁
Super Productivity Mode has been engaged. TweetDeck has been OFF most of the day…
@alyshajane Whatever Ginger Spice is knitting there is NOT wool. *shudder*
iPhone VOIP over 3G is now allowed in the US: http://bit.ly/AZJ8E. So when will we get it in Oz??
@DDsD Remind @Opheli8 that her own company is selling one. 😛
@Opheli8 Heh. They always are!
@gilmae Is this for MY Halloween party?! Exxxcellent.
Leaving work at 7pm in a freezing rainstorm = suck. Though of dinner waiting and a bottle of wine in my bag is making it bearable. Just.
STUPID CHANNEL 10 RAN OVER and I missed the last 10 minutes of Celebrity Masterchef. Who got through??
@redambition @randomknits Wow, and she only had one chicken ball! The others had two.
@imdominating See, I don’t get the point in picking cuz we all know Jacob is destined for that creepy baby. It’s like picking Luke over Han!
Trying to get everything done… since it’s the last day before vacation! @eileenDCoE gets here in less than 24 hours. HOW EXCITEMENT.
@imdominating I’m going downstairs to get a coffee. I’ll check at the newsagent next door. 🙂

You should have bargained, Lucas.
Hahaha. I totally agree. The plan to rescue Han from Jabba the Hutt never did make much sense. But that discussion made me laugh and laugh…

The Wonder of Wool
“The wonder of wool… or how knitting is once again helping us through the hard times.” Interesting that the UK is reporting increased sales. I have to wonder if it’s really wool though. In my experience, newbies tend to go for the cheap acrylic (especially if they’re looking for a price-conscious hobby). And whatever Ginger Spice is knitting there is mostly definitely NOT wool. I do have to laugh at the idea that Kimberley Stewart would rather stay in and knit than go out and party. Sure, riiiiiiiiiight. (Link courtesy of Alysha‘s twitter feed.)

RunningBlog
I haven’t done one of these in a while, huh? I’m happy to report that I’m back into a regular running schedule. I’ve been running three times a week following the Couch to 5K plan to rebuild my fitness level. I’m also using this as a way to transition into forefoot running. I’ve just finished Week 5 and did my first 20 minutes of continuous running since before I got sick. It was great! Forefoot striking is starting to feel really natural, and my lower back ache is pretty much gone. My right hip is still tight and frozen though, so I may need to see the physio for that. I had sore calves for the first few weeks, but that’s mostly gone now. My knees feel a bit achey after today’s run. I’m definitely going faster with the same amount of effort though.
