@randomknits Festive!
@drkknits Awww. I miss that grump!
Snookums made a new friend too. His name is Linus. http://t.co/nBbCThHU
The Snook got me earrings. Discovered that my upper piercing is still good after like 10 years! http://t.co/2jEmce88
@randomknits Coincidentally it’s 34 here, but as @the_snook says, it’s “34 effing degrees FAHRENHEIT.”
Just caught Skyfall at Dad’s local theater. $5.50 a ticket! Crazy. (@ Pickwick Theatre) http://t.co/MUUvphZ8
This is Fraggle. I hope @drkknits shows my jealous cats at home! http://t.co/60Xra3Yr
@venks79 35km? Holy crap, Lance Armstrong!
Breakfast at a real diner. So good! (@ Twentieth Century Restaurant) [pic]: http://t.co/SXtQCKrt
Belly stuffed, glass of wine, snuggled on the couch in front of a crackling fire, waiting for the snow to start. This is good.
My Google ad went live! See anybody familiar here? #totes #famous http://t.co/mVtvJxOm
Winter is here! Amazing view to wake up to. Not a blizzard though. @ Boner Lake http://t.co/1bYNUQcl
Sewists: my stepmom Cindy is hooking me up, yo! Vintage pattern awesomeness. http://t.co/zaRyCo7U

@mrs_sockvictim Looks awesome! Who built it? Can they build one for me? 🙂
Manly Snook sure knows how to tend a fire! http://t.co/F7dtFR8Z
The snow is already melting. Draco, I am disappoint.
WTF @imdominating. We switched on AMC’s Princess Bride, and they’ve cut all kinds of scenes! Where was Buttercup whacking the ROUS??
@drkknits Not with me. He follows Rodd around. You’re his new mama!
We saw the Space Shuttle today! Lots of space geek fun was had. @ California Science Center http://t.co/DcUqgQXT
Overheard posh LA mom on train today explain the solution to school shootings: panic rooms in every classroom. Of course! It’s so simple!
@drkknits Dang – I should have left you my membership card!
@drkknits But you could’ve been earning me POINTS!
Finally made it to Indiana! Grabbing a quick brekkie on the toll road. (@ Service Plaza) http://t.co/yNf8e9lJ
They named the impending storm WINTER STORM DRACO. I am serious. It’s on the news and everything. Hahaha…
Fantastic dinner with my college buddy Liz! (@ Akasha w/ 2 others) [pic]: http://t.co/yJ4w1sh4
@drkknits Lovely post!
Frickin’ freezing in LA. Almost broke out heavy winter coat and we’re not even in Indiana yet. Also, snowstorm forecast there for Fri. #fml
Oh crap. Just saw weather map on Facebook. Prediction of 3-6″ of snow landing smack dab on my Dad’s house.
@drkknits Not sure if jet lag or we’ve caught flu from niece and neph (both sick). Probably latter. Still having fun tho.
Being silly at the La Brea Tar Pits! @ La Brea Tar Pits http://t.co/iZLaao4v
Somehow only one kid managed to get tar on himself, and it was the oldest one. @ La Brea Tar Pits http://t.co/XZFW89X3
We heard this place had good burgers. (@ Five Guys) http://t.co/d6sC634v
I just unlocked the “Flame Broiled” badge on @foursquare for checking in to burger joints! Cheeseburgers all around! http://t.co/78xqLyY1
Five Guys and then Menchies. I feel a stomachache coming on…
@drkknits Haha. I usually never turn it off!
@drkknits Ah, yeah. My lappy is quite old and the battery doesn’t hold a charge for more than a few minutes.
@drkknits Nope. I expected my luggage to go missing and Christmas to be ruined, but it wasn’t.
The Carbos take their gingerbread houses very seriously. http://t.co/3PW1tE2F
@drkknits Maybe their schedule is messed up for Christmas…
@drkknits Nice!!
I told you I’m not the best cookie maker in the family. http://t.co/F6p2SijO
@drkknits Yes. Just settling in now. Snooky had a brief nap earlier, but I haven’t slept since plane (and that was crap).
@drkknits I have a theory that oven runs hot. It definitely has a hotspot at back right corner.
@twelveeyes @drkknits I wasn’t aware of this either, and it’s my oven!
@LeeanneField Waves exhausted from my sister’s house in LA…
@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @twelveeyes Wait, what? You can set a temp. The fan is fan-forced. Then turn the 3rd knob to change temp!
@web_goddess @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @twelveeyes When it’s on grill, it shows percentages. When it’s on normal use, it shows temps.
@web_goddess @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @twelveeyes This is the manual, if that helps. http://t.co/aK809QjX
Buster (the dog, not the horse) has barely left Rodd’s side since we got here. #buddies http://t.co/rxABtOAG
Penn is really good at Angry Birds. These kids! http://t.co/6cPak37V
@drkknits Awww! It just takes him a while. 🙂
Final pitstop. Lunch with Dr K on our way to the airport! (@ Bourke Street Bakery) [pic]: http://t.co/BI9wQDtV
Massive thanks to @drkknits for playing taxi driver and cat sitter!
@witty_knitter @drkknits Like it or not, the right to bear arms is in the Constitution. And you don’t change that doc with a simple 50% vote
Security confiscated my toothpaste! See @drkknits? I *told* you something would go wrong.
He really is a awfully good sport. @ Sydney International Airport Departures http://t.co/fBewrrrl
@drkknits It was too big. EVERYTHING’S RUINED! 😛
We found a bar serving large beers and showing the cricket. Life is good. Only 90 minutes to kill… http://t.co/ttDLjsNd
@Alacaeriel @witty_knitter @drkknits There’s a *lot* of room for interpretation. Personally I think they should be banned. But it’s not easy
@ryleedanielle Sorry, I’m just about to fly overseas for a few weeks. You’re best to ask your questions to someone else!
@NickDeverell Merry Christmas to you too! Tell Carrot we’ll see him when we get we back. 🙂
Boarding soon, so I’m going dark. Goodbye Sydney, and we’ll see you in 2013!
USA – we are in you! LA is rainy and cold. We’re tired. http://t.co/UgeMCpx1
@drkknits @NessNomster He’s a poop. Give him a pat for us! 🙂
@ryleedanielle Sure. What do you need to know?
This is it! Leaving for US in eight hours. Flying via New Zealand, so I’m excited to look for hobbitses.
@3rd_Gen_ Just via-ing, unfortunately. Must get there for a proper visit sometime!
@stufromoz Only about an hour. Just passing through
@justjussi @witty_knitter Air NZ via Auckland. Only an hour’s layover, unfortunately. Need to go back for a proper visit sometime!
@wooboard I JUST GOT ANOTHER EMAIL FROM YOU. What’s going on? Why can I not get off this list?
My Secret Santa gift! Leanne knows me SO WELL. 🙂 http://t.co/8Sj5yU6s
All gussied up for the Christmas party in my prom dress! http://t.co/L6NklFMH
Christmas Party! (Where is @kunaal84?) (@ Small Bar) [pic]: http://t.co/EWhSZ7ny
Just won Christmas award for Biggest @Sitback Supporter and/or Google Whore. Woooooo!
Ha! And @kunaal84 got Most Succinct Speaker at Stand-up Meetings!
The women of Sitback! http://t.co/iOKldcRp
On my way now to Google’s Christmas party. Such a social butterfly!
@catehstn I’m here!!!
Anybody else at Google Xmas party? Find me!
Me and the lovely @catehstn at the Goog party! http://t.co/hysB3uHO
The Google Christmas party theme is “Mexican.” Seriously. http://t.co/PpGqwtaJ
@brown_note I didn’t find him! I tried. There were a lot of people dressed as dodgy Mexicans.
@AusVintageGrrl I was prepared to judge it totally lame… but truth be told, it was the best Christmas party ever.
On the bus home. It occurred to me that I’ve been drinking for 8 hours. Also, I seem to have acquired a sombrero.
@jezfletcher How did I miss you there? Were you wearing a fedora?
@catehstn Somehow I totally missed the shoes!
RT @Colvinius: For the umpteenth time I’m disgusted by how much abuse women get on the web, including here on Twitter: http://t.co/K4RC …
@venks79 It was more of an Opposite Award, I think. 🙂
Just woke up with The Hangover of the Gods. Then read the news. Universe, how about a cosmic do-over?
Apparently I’m a “PANK.” If I lived closer to my nieces and nephews, I would definitely spoil them! http://t.co/uVPxnyTb
Hobbes is finished! He’s very huggable. http://t.co/vMlmACWZ
Just remembered the pretzels I got from Secret Santa yesterday. YES. Hangover win.
