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.

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!

Holy crap. The whole Clare Werbeloff “chk-chk BOOM” thing WAS a hoax! http://bit.ly/2d0MVG She made it all up!


Emerged from our cave & wandered to Chippo’s Good Neighbour BBQ for a free snag. They’ve got a clown! #fb http://yfrog.com/0tukcj


@twelveeyes Two weeks at least, often more. They haven’t told me closing date yet, but definitely not til June.


15 min into hourlong run. Just stopped to watch rowers in Blackwattle Bay. http://yfrog.com/5gbrgj

Ugh. Sudden headache last night kept me up all night. Feel even worse this morning. Maybe I caught a bug from evil knitters on Sat?


The Male Programmer Privilege Checklist: http://bit.ly/88RCD . I nodded like 20 times. I’ve witnessed just about all that stuff.


Decided to call in sick and rest up. Tucked up in bed with laptop, eyelids drooping…

Someone just referred to the fact that “we’ve only had print since the 20th century.” @WittyKnitter nearly choked.


So very tired and bored. I will leave the outrage to those who got a good night’s sleep.


Halfway through. 1st part all came to nought. Ugh, whatev.


Okay, that was nearly SIX HOURS of knitting guild drama. Is it too early to start drinking?


@mrs_sockvictim Gutenberg who? 🙂


@AusVintageGrrl Unfortunately not. A motion that would have passed without notice at the AGM was defeated because of personality conflicts.


@randomknits Haha, me too! I finished off the toe of one, managed to Kitchener the toe amidst the insanity, and knit most of the leg of #2!


HOLY CRAP. Major osCommerce bug squashing tonight. Really weird session issue: http://bit.ly/Q9ysY . Thank god for patient customers!


Now, I think some beer and Welsh rarebit is in order…


@Timmay83 And you always double-down on eleven. ALWAYS.

When you’re wearing clothes from the late 90’s, somehow it seems appropriate to put R.E.M. on random on the iPod.


@acatinatree @misswired Um… I may have heard him say – just recently in fact – how much it sucked. Does that constitute premeditation?


Going to go for a run in the park. Headache has been threatening all day; maybe this will clear it.


RT @shanea: RT (like 12 other people): IT workers are best at sex: http://tr.im/m419 <- As you might guess, Twitter folks are ALL OVER THIS.


I’m debating buying Reel Big Fish’s last album on iTunes. I’m just getting stuck on paying $17 for 11 songs mostly under 3 minutes…


@Justacogitating In my experience, red wine usually cures insomnia.


Much deserved kudos to the support staff at Quadrahosting.com. They were awesome helping sort out an SSL issue for morrisandsons.com.au.


Nearly done… nearly done…


Done. I’m goin’ to bed. Gotta get up early for Knitters Guild draaaaaaaaama.


Who wants in to the M&S sale site early?


@knitsewmum They do checque and money order…


@purple_velvet @knitsewmum @Camee Go for it! http://www.morrisandsons.com.au


Oh for god’s sake. All the sale kits still say out of stock. Not my error.


Site launched, I’m off to the Guild Special General Meeting.


@knitsewmum As soon as I leave the house. Of course. It must be getting hammered! It was working before, right?


@randomknits I think you have it cached. I can get to it from mine, or I could before it crashed. 🙁


@redambition I’m on the train so will only just make it. Can you guys save me a seat?
