Bus strike tomorrow? Looks like I’ll be walkin’ to work!


@tinkabel Quite possibly! I think perhaps the 461, 480, and 483 drivers missed the memo and started striking today.


@Warlach Ugh. Or we could all, like, donate $5 or something. How does a flash mob help poverty other than by getting hipsters on the news?

@carbolicious Are those the shoes with wheels on the bottom? Because I really do.


@carbolicious Well, a car would be expensive & useless. Would take longer than walking, and the nearest parking is probably my houes anyway.


I like my co-workers a lot, but man, it’s been impossible to focus on any task for more than 10 minutes this week without being interrupted.


@Opheli8 Oh sure. You’ll hang tinsel but you won’t eat a peanut butter and bacon cookie???


Crap. Forgot Open Air cinema tix went on sale today. (http://bit.ly/8JYlN3) Nearly everything sold out already. 🙁


@VenessaHunt Woo! Deceptively demure. 🙂


Looks like the strike is ON! http://bit.ly/7Hlgmw


@VenessaHunt I’ve seen your high heels! Girls in pageboy bobs don’t wear stilettos.


First night alone in ages. Petey Cat missed the Snook, as evidenced by YOWLING ALL NIGHT.


RT @redambition: #busstrike and rain? Not a good day for public transport people!


#busstrike + no taxis + gridlock = a 25min walk to work in steady rain. I knew blow-drying my hair this morning was absurdly optimistic.


Hm. All the other girls in the office are dressed up for the Christmas party. I’m wearing jeans and sneakers.


@carbolicious You could bathe a baby in that!


They’re making me wear a funny hat. http://twitpic.com/txre5

@witty_knitter Awww, congratulate her from me and Snook!

Zyrtec managed to stop my running nose, but man, I’m so drowsy I think I’m going to pass out at my desk.


Just completed a 1.03 km walk with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/5oc4LZ #RunKeeper


Apparently this 470 is designated for the carrying of oversized parcels. I missed that somehow. The dude with the surfboard is a nice touch.


Snook left home 15 min after me, yet still caught me at Broadway waiting for my bus. And then his came, and I’m still waiting. THIS SUCKS.

@damana I’m a geek girl BA. (I was a former dev though if that matters.)


@damana Weirdness. For some reason I wasn’t following you even though I had you on a list. Anyhoo, following and emailing.


@shanea Yikes! Did Quackies scare them away?

The valiant Kris strode into battle this morning with the Dreaded and Fearsome Scope Creep Monster… and was quickly roasted alive.


I got a BIG Christmas present delivered at work! It’s from my Dad and step-Mom. Now I just have to NOT OPEN IT. (Easier said than done.)


Check out the 6.85 km run I did with @runkeeper http://bit.ly/6UIGiK #RunKeeper


Tim Tams straight from the fridge! Life is good.


@kdelarue How much are they asking?I haven’t kept up with current worth. My own copy is pretty beat up.


Week 3 of Operation Increased Mileage has begun. I should hit 28km/17mi this week if my legs hold up.


Silver lurex socks have arrived. This year’s Oscar Sock Monkeys are going to be THE BEST, JERRY. THE BEST!


Just completed a 6.68 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/7HaNcd #RunKeeper


Judging by today’s 461 driver, I bet they have to replace the brake pads on these things every week. I’m gonna get whiplash.

Dragged Snook to city for retail therapy. Hit M&S sale and Myer. Tip: don’t walk thru Myer ground floor w/ mouth open. Perfume tastes bad!


Not happy with @runkeeper 2.0. Paused run to use @foursquare, then could NOT get RK to launch again. Ended up having to reinstall. 🙁

Up to row 117 on St. Brigid. At present tension, back will be 10cm too short. Looks like I’ll be adding in a ninth repeat.


@steven_noble We used inspectors.com.au for ours two years ago. We were pretty happy with them. They have sample reports online.


@steven_noble For baiting we used Echidna Pest Control. We used them at our old place too. Haven’t had a cockroach in two years…

Having a great time at the Knitters Festive Season Celebration! http://twitpic.com/t5mug


@carbolicious Yay! Glad to hear it. Hope you feel better soon.

In a cab on the way to the Opera House to see the Symphony perform Haydn’s “Creation”. Thanks to @Kat13v for the tickets!


The symphony was great! Even this atheist who knows nothing about music was entertained. My favorite bit was Raphael and the worm.


@gadgetgirl70 Neat! Was thinking of making a trip to see that too…


After all the excitement of yesterday, Sunday stretches before me with absolutely nothing scheduled other than knitting and TV. Bliss.

Ahhhhhh! Busy day. Busy day. Getting lots done; just that none of it is actually on my To Do list. 🙁


@WildChildinAUS It doesn’t, for me. You just get used to it.


@knitabulous @randomknits SWEET. We’re bringin’ it to the fuddy-duddies.


@sharre Oh noes. Mine is knitting related AND kitsch AND silly!


@crumpet Thats nearly a sprint! Slow it WAY down and do it for three times as long. 🙂


@DDsD Knitters Festive Celebration at Sidewalk Cafe at Opera House from 2. Bring sticks and string. 🙂


Where are the buses? I may be a few minutes late to the Guild meeting…


@witty_knitter Just caught the 470 so I must be in front of you.


Just got word that our meeting will have an unexpected visitor. This could be interesting. I’m not gonna do a damn thing differently.


@DDsD Wait til we get drunk. Tipsy Knitters en masse is a formidable sight.

@Justacogitating I sleep with my iPhone. Really.


Had my first visit to the upper floor of Bill & Toni’s. Schnitzel was good, but man… Slightly intimidating crowd up there.


RT @Justacogitating: But isn’t the monthly $$ ungodly on the iPhone? // Not in Oz. We have it on 5 different carriers. 🙂

It’s a Christmas miracle! I got 100m on the rowing machine at Spudds today… TWICE. TWICE! I AM INVICIBLE!


AWESOME! Just got an email confirming that I won one of the Buon Ricordo cookbooks from @NotQuiteNigella! http://bit.ly/vtcu6 YAY!


@NotQuiteNigella I had to go back and see how many entries you ended up getting. Now I’m even more amazed I won! I never win anything!

@Opheli8 The wacky ones with the pictures on them.


Ugh. First not-so-good mango of the season. It’s also my first R2E2. Are they crappier than the other varieties?


Did any other Sydneysiders get @foursquare superuser status this morning? I am looking forward to editing some of this shite locations.


@gilmae The email said something about having added a lot of venues. I just wondered how low that threshold was…


@gilmae Nah, that was for visiting 30 places. I don’t think the badge is related to editing privileges.
