@gilmae There is, a bit. http://search.twitter.com/search?q=lazyweb
Exciting client meeting with @VenessaHunt! Tried hard to follow Snook’s advice: “Be awesome.”
Snookums and Petey are enjoying tonight’s new episode of Mythbusters. http://twitpic.com/4739×5 (cc @voicework)
Today’s xkcd is actually relevant to what I’ve been doing at work! http://xkcd.com/869/ (@VenessaHunt @venks79)
All 3 grocery stores were missing a crucial ingredient, so tonight’s Jamie recipe is being postponed til tomorrow! Be patient…
And I just gave @SallyPompom a new boat too! 🙂 @redambition @AusVintageGrrl
@Bells_G ?? I’m not waiting for inspiration. I’m waiting for bean shoots! 🙂
@Opheli8 How did your dresses go? We need pics!!
Sudden realisation: I have less than 4 weeks to finish my (top secret) Easter Show projects. FRACK.
I want a t-shirt with Mayvis on it, dammit. #kgnswagm
@mrs_sockvictim @SallyPompom @witty_knitter @knitterjp @Kat13v Cautiously optimistic. Nearing end of Constitutional discussion….
Crisis averted! Constitution has passed unanimously. Brilliant work @SallyPompom!! #kgnswagm
Me and @witty_knitter towards the end of today’s #kgnswagm. http://twitpic.com/468ok0
@lttlrdhn @witty_knitter @knitabulous The 1st rule of Knitters Guild is YOU DO NOT TWEET ABOUT KNITTERS GUILD.
Anybody need a food processor? Grater is crap but it mushes and chops fine. $20 and it’s yours! http://twitpic.com/46bbrf
Dear @toastman. This is for you: http://bit.ly/hZ0YuS (Though I suspect @kunaal84 will like it too.)
Internet nerds heading to the Sunday 10:30am old people’s showing of King’s Speech. (We dislike crowds.) http://twitpic.com/46jlpe

@steven_noble I don’t mind gamification too much, but transmedia I’m not familiar with. What the heck does it mean? Sounds LGBT-related. 🙂
Got my orthotics. They feel very weird. Also, unexpectedly expensive. (Damn HCF waiting periods!!)
@sharre I thought you were going to nominate from the floor?!
@mpesce Actually if you’ve got a new passport, you’ll get to go through the high-tech photo scanner thing! Very futuristic.
Heading to #kgnswagm now. Museum is still closed, IIRC. Anybody know how I get in early to set up? @redambition @Kat13v
My t-shirt has a car crash on it. I thought it was thematically appropriate. #kgnswagm
Anybody looking for a Technical Architect role? We’re on the lookout for someone with mad technical skillz… DM me if you like!
Trying out new hair salon. This place is a little more punk than my usual!
@richapplefool Be sure to look for my knitting while you’re there. 🙂
New hair: blonder plus layers. http://instagr.am/p/B93PV/
@imdominating DAMN YOU. I meant to leave for work like half an hour ago, and yet I KEEP PUSHING THE MAGIC PACEY BUTTON.
@imdominating I also have a sudden urge to buy Rodd a peacoat for winter.
@venks79 Heh. Please tell @rajsingh2505 to log an issue for changing logo on holding page. 🙂 Be there soon…
Dude. Bieber’s “First Dance” is a surprisingly dirty song, right? Or is that just me?
Most expensive lipstick I’ve ever bought in my life, but I love it. @ David Jones http://instagr.am/p/B8b9j/
@redambition I couldn’t wait. Went to DJ’s after work. Red was intimidating at first, but it actually looks GOOD on me!
MAC Wonder Woman lippie in Matte Russian Red. It’s all @redambition’s fault.
@redambition Haha… Sure thing. 🙂
@kunaal84 That actually made me hesitate! 🙂
@Glompbot @redambition Yep! Google “MAC wonder woman.” Also gloss, mascara, liner, compacts, etc all in awesome WW packaging!!
Haters gonna hate, but Snook and I are definitely getting the new iPad.
RT @gilmae: Today, we are all Irish. // Heh. I’ll jump on that bandwagon.
@gilmae Yep. Snook’s laptop died & we decided 1 laptop (mine) and 1 iPad2 were cheaper given our usage. Plus: SHINY and TOMORROW.
@richbuggy Why would you ever pity someone who can afford to buy something that makes them happy? Odd attitude.
@richbuggy Ah, well then you’re just being willfully ignorant. I didn’t buy the 1st iPad as didn’t need it. Also didn’t buy new MacBook Pro.
@richbuggy But – you successfully trolled, so I guess you get +10 anti-apple points? I hear you can buy a “Xoom” with them.
@miftik I wanted the first one, but couldn’t justify it. Now that Snook’s laptop is dead, we finally have a need for one!
Just freaked out @seanchadwick when he realised I was wearing lipstick. “YOU CAN’T JUST DO THAT!” #bizarroworld

@randomknits I don’t know about hexagons, but I made a quilt by hand without much experience. You can do it! http://bit.ly/iiqmqE
I just ordered a ukelele off Amazon. I blame @amandapalmer. Now I have to figure out how to play it!
@thisismywww http://amzn.to/hCygE3 That one! It was free since I had some gift certs. 🙂
The Snook is mocking me as a ukelele-playing, retro-dress-wearing hipster. Sadly, it’s true. Next on the list: FIXIE! (Just kidding.)
@gilmae Ha! Found you on there. Followed.
@Roceal Ooh, thanks for that! Will bookmark for when it gets here. 🙂
The Snook has just pointed out that I’ve been spelling ukulele wrong “on the twitters.” DAMN HIPSTER PEDANT.
@redambition So how much is the perfect red lippie going to cost me, and where do I get it?
@redambition Ah, but I can’t judge these things on my own. I have terrible colour sense! When are you in the city next? 🙂
@redambition Crap. Getting my hair cut Thurs at 6. Before/after AGM, maybe?
@venks79 Good luck!!!
Do other people get calls from head hunters to their work number? That seems super inappropriate to me.
@imdominating So hang on. Do the actual awards not start for another 30 minute? I can’t figure it out.
With 4 awards to go… Oscar Contest is currently a 25-way tie for first. #fml
@betsybookworm I have a tiebreaker, thankfully… Hopefully won’t need it! COME ON, UPSET.
CRAP, it’s the dead people montage! I hope you’re all counting for me.
@knitterjp Excellent. @imdominating concurs. @miftik?
@miftik Thanks! 41 is definitely the consensus.
Uh oh. General crappy feeling has given way to sinus congestion. Am I getting my usual training-induced bout of sickness?
@witty_knitter @monnsqueak I took some Zyrtec and I think I’m feeling better. Hoping it was just an allergy attack…
Dear @kunaal84. I saved you the BIEBER-TASTIC episode of Glee from last night. You’re welcome. 🙂
@laimelde Wrong turn! Nearly there.
@venks79 it’s 1:20 and I’m about halfway around. See if you can catch me before I finish!! 🙂
Getting ready for tonight’s Jamie meal: Duck Salad with Giant Croutons and Cheat’s Rice Pudding with Stewed Fruit.
That is… a lot of food for two people. http://twitpic.com/44as22
@redambition No way! And Boomer from BSG, AND Jin from Lost? They got every hot Asian in Hollywood! 🙂
Jamie’s 30 Min. Meals #6: Duck Salad w/ Giant Croutons, Cheat’s Rice Pudding w/ Stewed Fruit. http://bit.ly/ewBWyM Impressive presentation!
HELLO MONDAY. I wasn’t even out of bed for 5 minutes before I stepped in cat sick.
Excited to see TOAST’s play! (@ NIDA w/ @toastman) http://4sq.com/gH9fAE
Toastman, the Snook, and a giant fake ham glued to a landmine. http://twitpic.com/43vb1t #sydneytheater #shortandsweet
@kdelarue Yep. @toastman wrote a one-act play called “Raining Bacon.”
@laimelde Whoops, forgot to reply! Yep, all systems go. I’m planning to be at Lang Road entrance by noon. Hope to see you there!
@mrs_sockvictim Sydney Park at 10:30ish, if you’re up for it! 🙂
@eileenDCoE Walkin down the street I’m the lady – uh! Showin off my map of Tasmania! 🙂
@miftik Yay! Thanks for remembering. 🙂
Fueling up and psyching myself up for today’s 22.5km (14mile) long run. Looking forward to running a bit of it with @laimelde and @venks79!
Just over 24 hours to go in the w-g Oscar Contest. Be sure to put your entry in for a chance to win the sock monkeys! http://bit.ly/dvL5BE
