RT @KathrynElliott: Found out this morning via @web_goddess Sydney now has a @parkrun_au http://t.co/IZ7YMv4Q

@lachlanhardy Are you into paleo? Preparing to make the transition myself…

@knitdra Congrats on your anniversary!

@Soma377 I see him posting pics of her on FB all the time. Adorable kid!

@Soma377 Well, I have the advantage in that it’s summer here. And it never snows in winter. And Aussies are all sporty and crap.

@lachlanhardy Ah. We’re carnivores who are 90% of the way there but we cheat too often. Going to do 21-day primal challenge, I think.

@brown_note This is why we’re remodelling the kitchen. Only way to fit a decent sized fridge in!

Ralph Fiennes reading HP slashfic. Oh man. This is for @imdominating and @carbolicious. http://t.co/a9XX1KHq

Final handover meeting with @venks79 and @kunaal84 complete. IT’S REALLY HAPPENING! Nearly time to go…

@venks79 It still hasn’t sunk in yet! I’m sure we’ll work together again. Call me when you found your start-up. 🙂

Shutting down my work PC for the last time! (With cameo by Alan Robertson.) http://t.co/pZADPeOD

@mrs_sockvictim BRILLIANT!

Awake and fueling up before Sydney @parkrun_au!

@janiematts @mrs_sockvictim We were there! Bringing up the rear with @the_snook. 🙂

Rode 8.5km and ran 5km all before 10am. I actually like this!

@DDsD Ha, no. Reminds me of a roommate I had once that claimed he’d been in music biz for 28 years. He was 28. “BECAUSE HE LOVED IT, MAN!”

Evened out the colour, trimmed the layers, side-swept fringe. #suchahipster http://t.co/DOZpYwOE

@Yarna_ @alyshajane @bellsknits Thanks!

@drkknits It’s because my hairdresser is a Pom. I feel all posh and Anglophile after spending a couple hours with her. 🙂

@bron2042 I just may take you up on that suggestion. Thanks!

@stufromoz New office is full of trendy people with Macs. I need to look hipper. 🙂

@stufromoz Definitely the Opera in the Domain. Haven’t booked any others yet, but would like to!

@randomknits @drkknits Ooh, sleek and smart! Lovely.

@bron2042 DONE!

@randomknits @handmethepanda @drkknits Mine was 2.5 hours… and $200+. It’s my one indulgence.

Last day at Mobile Embrace. What a difference three years makes! http://t.co/seTbVuDu

@eileenDCoE I really need to come to Melbs some January. I’d love to see the tennis!

@jannism Dude, it’s a cakewalk! Go for it. 😛

@drkknits About 9 months before that. I left there in early 2008!

@eileenDCoE Secret: it’s mostly in the blow-dry, which means it will never look that good again. 🙂

@bellsknits Bah. There ARE knitting police. We just don’t have official badges or power to fine crappy knitters – except IN OUR HEADS. 🙂

@drkknits @witty_knitter @redambition The MetaFilter discussion has interesting debate, context and additional links: http://t.co/hPt5H4Ws

@redambition @drkknits @witty_knitter Oh, that happens all the time. You haven’t lived til you’ve seen Bob Dole talking erectile dysfunction

@redambition @drkknits @witty_knitter It looks to have been scrubbed from the internet, but there are loads of references if you google.

@AusVintageGrrl Ha, you didn’t know that? We were pitching to build an iPhone app for it 6 months ago. I was over YTT before it started! 🙂

@drkknits Hahaha, I sent that link to Rodd yesterday. His reply: “I need Colin Firth’s tailor’s number. Also, his physique.”

If more academics worked phrases like “kinky bastards” into their essays, I might not have dropped my Honors Program. 🙂 (cc @drkknits)

48 emails! 48! Could somebody please make @drkknits do some actual work already? 🙂

@toastman WHICH DIRECTION??!

Whoa. First JD & Kris from @GRSblog yest (http://t.co/Fwc3SM6s), and now @dooce & Jon today (http://t.co/O3VvnWGG). My world is reeling.

Me to @the_snook: “I think the key thing our marriage has going for it is that we both dislike pretty much everybody else in the world.”

RT @FoodTrucksSYD: First information session for short-listed food truck applicants today. The trucks are coming!!!!

@witty_knitter @the_snook @SandraHW Misanthropy is the basis for all the strongest relationships, I think. 🙂

@eskimo_sparky Not a case study, but have you seen @pose? It’s pretty new, but I think it’s got massive potential.

@eskimo_sparky Disclosure: I have a profile: http://t.co/1DL244cw I am not remotely a “fashion” person, but it makes me want to buy clothes!

@eskimo_sparky *sigh* This is what I get for doing Frocktober. But seriously, it’s Instagram + fashion with brand tie-ins. Could be HUGE!

I can’t ride the bus to work without wrinkling my pants beyond recognition. How the hell did Ange get to Globes in SATIN with NO WRINKLES?

@DDsD I would not be surprised to find out she’s able to teleport.

@FlavourCrusader @bellsknits takes photos of her chooks all the time!

@crumpet I do too. But how is that even possible? Portable steamer? She’s like on another plane of existence from us mortals.

@GGDSydney My company is advertising for a BA to replace me – care to retweet to the GGD women? http://t.co/PfCOjJxF See you all tonight!

Trying to talk @kunaal84 into seeing Melancholia with me and @drkknits and @mrs_sockvictim. He is “too busy” for nekkid Kirsten Dunst. Hm.

Still at work. Not going to make @GGDSydney event. Sorry guys!

@kunaal84 @drkknits @mrs_sockvictim It’s doubly funny because she was barracking for India the whole series!

@GGDSydney @blakkat Gahhhh. And I really EARNED a beer (or three) today! Damn. Hope everyone is having fun.

Dear Rotary Cutter: You are THE BEST and I don’t know why I never realised it before.

@jrgibson1 Wow. I’m not involved in this fight at all, but you’ve definitely made a disappointing impression. I’m unfollowing.

My two “nonesuch” blocks for @ocherdraco’s January Design for the MeFi quilting group are done! http://t.co/wEO4I7Wu

I’ve decided to destash some books over on Rav: http://t.co/gFWhnimN. All good stuff; none of my daggy 80’s intarsia books, I promise!

@drkknits I need hipster panniers for my bicycle, actually. 😛

@drkknits Panniers on which I may, in fact, PUT A BIRD.

Got up at 6am to go for a run. Made it 800m before knee started hurting. And then the rain POURED. I walked home, drenched. That sucked.

@knitterjp @witty_knitter @mrs_sockvictim “We only keep small meterage of each fabric to ensure exclusivity.” BLEURGH.

Paper piecing is super fun, and makes your patchwork blocks way more accurate. WHO KNEW?! (Eunny Jang, that’s who.) http://t.co/jOT35WC8

@drkknits @mrs_sockvictim Not sure about that. I have monkey bits to sew…

@drkknits Me and her, we’re LIKETHIS.

@msgusset She’s in my Metafilter quilting group. She made the paper template I used for that block. 🙂

Dear @kunaal84: This is for you. https://t.co/DfO4t8JV (cc @the_snook, who it is also for.)

Celebrant should’ve put “Talking your freaked out wife off metaphorical ledges” into the wedding vows, given how often @the_snook does it.

@mrs_sockvictim @drkknits @knitdra I’m walking to Surry Hills now!

@thisismywww Yes. We rode down them last night. 😀

@thisismywww I know. I’ve read the literature! But George Street is ridiculous; too many cars and too many pedestrians. That’s what I mean.

@thisismywww I wasn’t actually asking for answers to a problem! Just ranting. I’ve done a lot of reading on this lately, trust me. 🙂

@kcarruthers Lard makes the best pie crusts.

@kcarruthers From the grocery store. You can, in fact, buy it at Coles here. @the_snook uses it in his Hungarian Goulash. It’s still around!

@chrisgander Hunger Games?

@chrisgander You’ll devour the HG trilogy, I predict. I’m looking forward to the movie!

Any Business Analysts looking for a role in Sydney? Why not apply for mine! Seriously, they need somebody good. 🙂 http://t.co/PfCOjJxF

@brown_note Sydney BA role going if you want to alert your followers: http://t.co/PfCOjJxF. (It’s the role I’m leaving!)

@brown_note Cheers! I think they’ve got a couple CVs already. 🙂

@stufromoz I do!! Even own two albums. “Troubled Times” is one of my favourite songs ever. Think I’ll listen to it now…

@stufromoz Oh, damn. Just realised you were using a nickname, not the band. Carry on.

@blakkat What do you think you need it for? My predominate uses: A) cooking from recipes, B) knitting patterns, C) e-reader.

@blakkat But to be honest, I don’t use it as much as I thought I would. Nobody *needs* one, but it’s great for certain things.

@brockleyboyo Neat! I didn’t know you were working on the Games. What are you doing?

@drkknits My ovaries just kicked me in the metaphoric shins. Thanks.

Hot Guys in Period Costume: http://t.co/ij5xge4e. Suspect many of the knitters will be ALL OVER THIS.

Huh. I didn’t support Renly much in the books, but I can get onboard this train. http://t.co/FOxf3TXt (Suddenly Brienne makes more sense.)

@Kat13v I was referring more to the Renly obsession. 🙂

@drkknits I was waiting for you to chime in. 🙂
