Just had great FaceTime chat with my Mom. iPhone is gateway drug; whole family is Switching now! Free video chat is very “tomorrow.”

Crap. Throat is officially sore. Tomorrow’s long run *may* have to be postponed til Tuesday. (cc @laimelde @kunaal84 @mrs_sockvictim)

I am eating a dark chocolate Easter Bunny from Sweetness the Patisserie. It is the BEST. THING. EVER. http://bit.ly/dZCbvx

I have learned another ukulele song: “Leaving on a Jet Plane.” THIS IS FUN. (cc @drkknits)

---

@missamanda I’ve had desensitisation to dust mites and grass. For like the last 5 years.

---

@missamanda I used to take a Zyrtec every single day to survive. I’m down to maybe 1/wk or less now. So it’s helped a lot.

---

@missamanda The stuff was like $150 maybe every 9 months? And then the cost of getting all the shots. Medicare pays some of it.

---

@missamanda Shots were every 2 wks for first few months, then gradually stretched out to every month as dosage increased.

---

@missamanda It’s a bit voodoo though. Drs aren’t quite sure how or why it works. And it doesn’t cure totally; just helps mitigate a bit.

---

@missamanda I only stopped because I was burnt out on going to the doc every single month. You have to commit to that to get any benefits.

---

@drkknits Go to YouTube and look up John Denver version. That’s the key I’m doing it in!

---

@knitabulous @drkknits Sadly, yes. But John’s is best!

---

@drkknits iTunes has heaps. Even Sinatra covered it!

---

Tonight’s Jamie meal: Wonky Summer Pasta, Herby Salad, Pear Drop Tartlets. Fastest one yet: 33:26!! http://twitpic.com/4oe0m8

---

Longest run ever tomorrow. I could not be better prepared… with the exception of this stupid cold. Now to try and sleep.

---

It’s the buttcrack of dawn. Coffee, bagel with peanut butter. Hydrating. I am going to rock this run.

---

@toastman I am disappointed that’s a fake site, frankly.

---

No breakfast in the house. We planned to go to Eveleigh Markets. But it’s pissing down, as it always does in Sydney on Easter break. 🙁

---

@laimelde I emailed you with my schedule. Should be 10:30 ish?

---

@laimelde And yay!

---

@imdominating Oooh. I read the book. I SOBBED AND SOBBED. I can only imagine that I’d sob even more if Viggo was involved.

---

Yay! @carbolicious got the Easter package I sent. Video of kids opening it is CUTEST THING EVER. http://bit.ly/hvJEOp Love Indie’s GASPS! 🙂

---

Aww, Red Cross just rang me to personally thank me for donating! That was nice. Makes up for the vicious bruise I’ve had for over a week.

---

Sometimes the most important thing to do in your day is cheer up a friend who needs it!

@gizo Nuh. Works fine for me!

I thought I was coming down with a cold, and then I had a couple glasses of wine, and now I feel fiiiiiiiine. 🙂

---

@gizo Don’t be a sad! For I haz friended you.

---

@redambition Avoid the Long Island Iced Tea. They’re very good. But… BADNESS. ASK ME HOW I KNOW.

---

@kunaal84 AWESOME. Was it good???

---

@devvyleys May well be the case! She did a great job, but I still have massive purple splotch on my arm.

---

@lemon_lime HAVE FUN! Say Bon Voyage from me to Jamie too!

---

@SallyPompom Very! Please take photos. We miss her. And you! 🙂

---

Giant sleepy cat resting on my legs. Hot coffee. Knitting. Molly Ringworld marathon. Nice start to the weekend. http://twitpic.com/4nro6u

---

What the hell. Facebook has started emailing me about comments. It looks like my notification permissions have all changed. *sigh*

---

@fictillius It’s the principle of the thing!

---

@squozen But then I never get to see photos of my nieces or nephews. All my relatives without websites just use FB now. It’s a trap.

---

@squozen Then I’ll never see pics. My dictating which sites other people can use is not a very good solution.

---

@squozen I don’t mind it. And I don’t wanna be this guy: http://bit.ly/eFtAMx

---

@innerwestlive I don’t get it. Is there any more to the story than that? It’s shorter than a tweet!

---

Me and Spudds after today’s workout. 101m and 99m on the rower! http://t.co/DB28P6w

---

@knitness NO WAY. I love that jumper. Wasn’t it all in Cashmerino? That’s what put me off the pattern…

---

@knitness That’s awesome. Can’t wait to see it!

---

Anybody around/willing/able to run with me on Easter Sunday as part of my super long run? (@laimelde @mrs_sockvictim @redambition)

---

I don’t know if you know this, but Stacy’s Mom has it going on.

---

@randomknits @drkknits I have hit up actual Indians for advice/supplies on my outfit. I’M GONNA LOOK AWESOME. (cc @kunaal84 @rajsingh2505)

For the curious, this is some of what the Snook has been doing at Yahoo7 for the past six months: http://yhoo.it/gbKKEB

---

I knitted a little Easter cardy for my friend Fei’s newborn daughter. Finished just in time! I hope they like it. http://twitpic.com/4n5fnl

---

@randomknits Thanks! Will look better in natural light. My first go at deliberately mismatched buttons. 🙂

---

@redambition I gave up on Myer CBD years ago. Worst service ever. DJs was lovely to me, so they get my business.

---

Uh oh. Trying to edit today’s @healthmonth turn and the application keeps crashing. Any ideas, @busterbenson?

---

RT @innerwestlive: Ultimo Data Centre expansion put on hold: http://bit.ly/fA1wpj // Much better article!

---

@busterbenson Yep. webgoddess. Just saw again trying to edit next month rules. Earlier was trying to edit today’s turn (eventually worked).

Since I started playing @healthmonth, I’ve taken lunch to work 19 times. That’s roughly $200 saved!

---

@venks79 I just wish ppl knew to configure their servers properly so sites worked without it. Aussie sysadmins are frequent offenders!

---

@emmainsydney Great! It’s a brilliant site. Add me as a friend on there. 🙂

---

Dear world: Please stop talking about the Game of Thrones show until I finish the book. Because if I get spoiled, I’M GONNA LOSE IT.

---

@drkknits I reckon. Everybody told me I need to. If I can finish it by Camp, I’ll lend it to you!

@DomesticJules Did you get an answer? Definitely soft brown.

---

@gilmae SHHHHH. Btw – any chance you could burn me a DVD? 🙂

---

@DomesticJules *thumbs up*

---

@gilmae I am just indulging Snook’s laziness. We could download. Only one has aired, yeah?

---

@gilmae If it’s not a PITA, that would be awesome. We are meeting at the Show Monday? I shall buy you your preferred cheese on a stick!

---

@gilmae Ah, thought @randomknits hinted there were 3 of youse coming. And you have mistaken me for a Discworld fan. Only 1 in this house!

---

@gilmae Oh! You meant @randomknits goes in for the unironic deep fried food on a stick. I’m with her. 🙂

---

@chrisgander I go nice and slow, 1:1 run/walk. You should try it sometime. You could probably go a lot farther!

@chrisgander I’m reading the book first. 🙂

@knitterjp @mrs_sockvictim Mine’s going to be the reward for finishing the marathon in June. 🙂

---

@jenwburn I’m already taking the 2 biggest Pratchett fans I know! 🙂 But thanks for the offer…

---

RT @jenwburn: @web_goddess Hi Kris – I have a spare ticket to Terry Pratchett tonight. Do you know anyone that might want one? Many thanks.

---

Uke practice. I am ROCKIN’ the Patsy Cline, I tell you. I really enjoy ripping into the last verse of “Walkin’ After Midnight.”

---

@misswired Gimme a few more weeks! I’m just now getting to where I can change chords without breaking the rhythm. Need finger agility. 🙂

Gave up on bus and hopped a cab. Terry Pratchett is waiting!!

Waiting for Terry Pratchett! (@ Sydney Opera House w/ @ezzles) http://4sq.com/haRzkO

---

@stufromoz We’re up in the circle, towards the rightish (looking at the stage).

---

@Illdrinn Heh. I noticed that too. Between that and the Amanda Palmer concert, I’ve been out with every Twitterer in Sydney, I think.

---

Great job on the lights tonight, @Kat13v!

---

@sharre Best thing I ever did. Well worth it to never have them ache again! Just take iPod and stay calm. And don’t use straws afterwards!

---

@sharre Chair. General was expensive, and I wanted to be brave. Blogged if you’re up to it: http://bit.ly/fuazAs http://bit.ly/hY32As

---

@sharre I didn’t have all four though. We did two at a time, one side and then the other a month later. You can do it though!

Jamie’s 30 Minute Meals: Liver & Bacon, Onion Gravy, Smash Potato, Dressed Greens, Berry & Custard Ripple. http://bit.ly/h8M5kK Meh. *shrug*

---

@chrisgander Training plan has me doing 37K this Sunday. My longest ever! Let me know if you want to join me for part; I could use company.

---

RT @wheelyweb: proof, it that is what you need, that taking cars out of the city centre is good for your health: http://t.co/oWXCzue

---

RT @AusVintageGrrl: @knitterjp Have a great first day!!! // DITTO!

---

Tonight’s Jamie Oliver dinner: Liver & Bacon with Onion Gravy, Smashed Potato, and Dressed Greens. Hm. I do NOT like elderflower cordial.

---

@gingerthomas Both. It went into the dessert, and I mixed/drank some. I didn’t care much for the drink.

---

@AusVintageGrrl Aww, thanks. I’ll see what doc says first. May not be sinus at all.

---

@chewxy You HAVE to give us details. Please! Maybe photos too? 🙂

---

Still waiting, 35 minutes after my scheduled doctor’s appointment. She just called in somebody else. #fml

---

Finally saw doc. Definitely not sinus. Maybe infected salivary gland?! Got antibiotics and referral for ultrasound.

---

Crap. I missed a call and accidentally deleted the voice mail. If it was you, please call back!

---

@squozen Not yet. Blog says they’re working on it.

---

@chrisgander @kevinferry Bah. I just record my runs on dailymile and use the shame of having a big fat zero showing there to motivate me!

---

Morning Kris is very grateful that Evening Kris baked Zucchini Bread in preparation for Diet Cheat Day. LOVE YOU, EVENING KRIS!

---

@AusVintageGrrl It’s easy to be cute when your belly’s full of fresh zucchini bread! 🙂

---

RT @FlavourCrusader: hullo kris. i am using your sardine post as an example for my @openideo challenge – facing real food. // AWESOME!

---

@Alacaeriel Ahhh, but we need you to gripe, because otherwise it’s just us being bitter losers! You can objectively complain. 🙂

---

@Alacaeriel Complete lack of any published criteria for judging? Bad display? Inconsistent judging in other categories? THE HORROR CLOWNS?!

---

@gingerthomas @witty_knitter Wow. I really like that effect! It’ll make my doggies look GREAT! 🙂

---

Amused that Guild keeps asking me to teach at Camp instead of all the prize-winning knitters. Am I that good a teacher? Or just a sucker?

---

@ozgamer Awww! Nah, it’s because I’m a sucker. I turned them down. I’ve done enough for them over the years.

---

@drkknits Except for me, right? Because I love you (in spite of your crap knitting in non-traditional colours). 😛

---

@witty_knitter @gingerthomas I love than a random joke has turned into an actual learning experience. 🙂

---

@drkknits There’s a song in that.

---

@witty_knitter @drkknits I remember when M-H was as virulently anti-socks as I am anti-shawl. Crap. I better not be knitting shawls in 8yrs!

---

@knitterjp I turned them down. I think it’s more the “sucker” thing, and I’m through being the tall poppy that gets whacked!

---

@knitterjp @drkknits The hipster part will come when it gets used as the soundtrack in an Apple advert.

---

RT @FlavourCrusader: @web_goddess hai u r faaaaaaamous http://bit.ly/dL1jT9 love that photo btw // HAHAHA… Thanks! Love it too. 🙂

---

@Kat13v Maybe doing a new class? Just seems pointless to ask me to repeat. Lack of imagination. Same folks always go so what’s the point?

---

@Alacaeriel So in order to defeat the clowns… we must all become one with the clowns? NO. NO! THE HORROR!

---

@AusVintageGrrl So if I swing by, I can pay you for the Folca??!

---

Figured out why I feel awful. Mysterious cheek infection has returned. Back to antibiotics. 🙁

---

Sinus headache entering 3rd day. Paracetamol not making a dent. Yes, I’ll be going to the doctor today.

---

@knitterjp @drkknits I’m not stuffed up at all. I think this is infection in actual sinus cavity. Cheek is sore, nausea, headache, pressure.

---

@SMinney This is the 3rd time in 1.5yr in exactly the same place. Antibiotics must not be killing it. Need something STRONG this time!

---

Doctor booked in at midday (earliest I could get). Now to sit without moving my head for three hours.

---

Okay, this is weird. Skyping with my sister, who had a salivary gland infection recently… in same spot I have pain. Another possibility?

---

@redambition I don’t have any of those hippie things in my house! 🙂
