@knitness Oh cool! I’ve been meaning to check out that market for a while now…


Um, attention @twelveeyes, @imdominating, and @Justacogitating: Twilight Fan Cruise. http://www.twilightfanscruise.com/ That is all.


@rhagern Ooh, I was reading about that online. It looks good! Let me know if you like it.


@shanea Wait, what? Is this RT? (Judging by Wikipedia) I haven’t seen it…


Came back from lunch to discover a fat box of my brand new business cards on my desk! Now I need to knit myself a holder or something.


If a requirement is pretty much IMPOSSIBLE, why wouldn’t you tell me that right away? Why just ignore it? Gah.


RT The Snook: When your site only has three sentences on it, you really should check them for spelling and grammar. http://foll.me/


@misswired The plan is to mention him constantly until he gives up and joins in. It worked on my blog. 🙂


Ah, so this is what we were stuck in this morning: http://bit.ly/ltXO4


Okay, I’ve suitably atoned for my late start and long lunch. Going home to relax and knit (and boycott the footy)!


@witty_knitter I noticed. Quadrahosting status page says all is fine, but clearly not. 🙁


My site is still down. Very annoying. Quadrahosting, we were having such a good run! Why you gotta hurt me like this?


@SupFarn UGH. I can’t even SSH to the server. Yet the stupid Quadrahosting server status page still says all good. WTF?


OH CRAP! IT’S MY FAULT! I MISSED THE DOMAIN RENEWAL LETTER! Lucky I caught it in time. Should be back soon.


Not quite. Now I can’t get joker.com to take my renewal payment because their stupid “Verified by Visa” third-party is down. ARGH.


@jokercom Having trouble getting renewal payment to go through. Sent support request but nothing yet. Is something wrong with VbV handler?

@runkeeper Me too! I know good stuff is in store. Can’t wait for the next release…


My good deed for the day: teaching fellow knitters how to use htaccess and mod_rewrite to serve rude images to hotlinkers.


Why you should always sit in the FRONT of a rollercoaster: http://bit.ly/FmlS1 . (Warning: Vomity grossness!)


Using a system that imports tags from last.fm. Added David Duchovny & did double-take: http://bit.ly/Gic7A . HA! Folksonomy FAIL.


Stabbing back pains = great way to start Wednesday. Good thing I’m going to the physio AGAIN.


Going to be late. Stuck in P’matta Rd traffic. So just to clarify, I’ve had back spasms & gridlock… & I’m having lunch w/ mother-in-law.

@Ezzles Ohhhhh, I think that would be very, very good. Like turkey sandwiches with cranberry. Fruit goes very well with ham and cheese. 🙂


Official New Moon trailer is up: http://bit.ly/H3Wmi . And man, that is the fakest-lookin’ damn werewolf I have ever seen.


@brodrigu *hand up* Data point. I’ll back that up.


Leftover coq au vin for lunch. I think I am finally starting to come around on mushrooms! They’ve gone from yuck to bleh to almost tasty…


Aww, who’s a cute widdly fluffy were-puppy? EXACTLY. http://bit.ly/NlHgO


Even xkcd is getting in on the Twilight action: http://xkcd.com/591/ Ha!


Ack. Post-boxing sneeze attack on the bus. No tissues. I’M A MONSTER!


Just completed a 5.41 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/O0nc1 #runkeeper


iPhone: for when you need to know NOW what weapon Leonardo the Ninja Turtle used. (Snook won that bet.)


@Timmay83 I think you’ll find it was a KATANA BLADE, but yeah. Basically a sword.


Woo! Congrats to @kellymcmahon for winning the Cubs contest. She gets to throw out 1st pitch at Sep. 2 game!


Weird. Doing a vanity search on Bing brings up my Twitter profile as the 1st result?! http://bit.ly/steDW

Willy Wagtail is flitting around the garden, flagrantly showing off in front of Petey, who cracked his head on the glass trying to get him.


Just completed a 4.16 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/1bx1zI #runkeeper


Just completed a 4.84 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/IqWPc #runkeeper


That was actually one single loooong run. I lost GPS halfway through and had to restart. My back ached the whole way. 🙁


Coq au vin is simmering on the stove. Time for a glass of wine. Feeling very FRONCH tonight!


“Wow! So this weekend we finally got contents insurance and I told you what I want you to do with my corpse. I feel so grown-up.”


@Justacogitating I took it to mean she was leaving to ESCAPE guys she didn’t want to be with. Which sucks, but better than your version!


Trying to decide if new person at work used “Chester draws” ironically in her email about furniture for sale. I fear not.

Went to Eveleigh Farmers’ Market. Not sure which was more annoying: crowds of inner west hipsters or paying $7 for a tub of cream cheese.


Actually, it turned out to be damn good cream cheese, so the seven bucks seems justified.

Guidelines for writing better use cases: http://bit.ly/dsq0X. Food for thought.


It’s odd how getting email from the company that sacked you 6 months before still brings on immediate feelings of annoyance and bitterness.


@kdelarue Very interesting. I got an email the other day from somebody reading it who managed to find my site. I’ll have to look for it…


@kdelarue Treglown (prev biographer) thought that Dahl exaggerated a lot of his “spy” activities. Wonder if Conant has actual evidence…


This is disgusting. An Indian friend told me of a narrow escape from violent racist bogans in Bondi few weeks ago: http://bit.ly/A9Cml


On my way to a special birthday dinner for @gadgetgirl70… 🙂


Hooray! It’s Amy blowing out her candles… http://yfrog.com/0kbw1qj


So stuffed with Indian food. Nilgiris in St Leonards = highly recommended, especially if you get a private cushion room!


Hooray! I’ve got a new little nephew: Mason Anthony Howard. Congrats to Ant and Kara!


@Justacogitating I haven’t gotten much other than a pic. (Just emailed to you guys.) But presumably everything is okay!


@bellsg Good grief. I thought the M&S server crashing last weekend was bad. At least we didn’t get friggin’ death threats over it.

Just found out that one of my best college friends is coming out to visit in October and gets to come to our Halloween party. YAY, EILEEN!


@BostonSydney Don’t bother with train. It’s expensive and slow. It’s worth it to get a cab, especially if you can split with somebody else.


Can this be right? http://forecasts.org/ausd.htm They’re predicting near parity between AUD and USD by end of the year?!


@BostonSydney Not terribly common, but it wouldn’t hurt to ask. Especially if you make any friends on the long, long flight over!


@Gin_ev_ra I always thought the model in that ad looked like a drag queen. There’s a LOT of makeup happening there, and not in a good way.


@eileenDCoE WOOHOO! Roomate and Roomater Down Under. I may have to break out the crayons for that one…


@shanea You are totally invited. I need to provide @eileenDCoE with the widest possible range of single Aussie men. 🙂


RT @neilhimself: RT @pussreboots: Is that why scientists are always losing their keys? <- Tell me about it. Right, @eileenDCoE? 🙂


@twelveeyes Yeah, my cousin @imdominating sent me this link today: http://www.popsugar.com/3196745. 🙂


Heading to the city for knitting at the Grace Hotel. Anybody else going that way?


Had a great time at knitting tonight. Probably 15+ knitters, and every single one on #ravelry as far as I could tell!


Croque Monsieur – sandwich of the gods – about to come out of the oven…


Oh, hells yeah! http://yfrog.com/0cdckyj


No no no… not burnt! Just some very brown cheese. It was beeyoootiful. Here’s the recipe: http://bit.ly/ywzd5


@steverunner We get similar laughs when the vet calls about our kitten Petey, whose full name is “Professor Death.” (Husband named him.)


Just completed a 5.96 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Vi2d6 #runkeeper


It’s like the 480 bus drivers have my picture up or something. Total ENEMIES, I tell you.

@steven_noble You never, NEVER ask a woman that question. EVER. Some of us just have pot bellies. I got asked it at the Geek Girl Dinner. 🙁


@traceyh That actually made me light-headed to read. HOLY CRAP. Congratulations! Jovie is gorgeous. But man… I don’t know how you did it.


Grrr. Samoan guy with crazy hair in a suit walking around the office. Reminds me of some movie. WHAT IS IT? I can’t remember…


@imdominating Nah, it’s like a big ‘fro.


@imdominating THAT’S TOTALLY WHAT I’M THINKING!


If anybody in Sydney needs a good cleaner, ours has a few openings available. AND THEY ROCK. DM me for details.


@Steffi_83 $70 to do our whole place. We get them in once a fortnight. They’ll give you a quote once they see your place. You want details?


@crumpet Eh, it wasn’t that great. I was expecting something much more awesome.


@Steffi_83 Pretty good. Had physio again today, so I took it easy on the rower. Eight of us from work, & more people = easier workout. 🙂


I had to buy ear plugs rated to 33dB to drown out the daily 5am bouts of Cat Wrestlemania. Now you know why I’m grumpy in the morning.


Just completed a 4.62 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/jIc2k #runkeeper


@venks79 Actually today they were pretty good! That’s just how contrary they are.


Just got the new company phone list. ALL of my information is incorrect. FML.

Goddamn my sister and her stupid paranoia-inducing “Har, har, you’re probably PREGNANT!” jokes. It’s just REFLUX.


2nd visit to physio this morning. Massage + heat pack = best morning ever. Have been told to take it easy on rower at Spudds today.

@Steffi_83 Cool! Girard is a top bloke. Sorry I missed it.


@Steffi_83 If I don’t go Wednesday lunch, I’ll be there.


The sun is shining and I’m feeling much better. Ready to attack the To Do list!
