@randomknits Hahaha, I wondered that that deleted post said.


@DDsD TweetDeck lets you filter. You can enter http as the filter text. Just tried it out and it seems to work.


I’ve volunteered to help plant a couple trees in Chippo Saturday morning. Anybody else want to help? Reward = good karma.


@kunaal84 Woooooo! Let me know if you want app recommendations. 🙂

Got a fake domain renewal bill from droa.com today. I love that they assume I’m stupid enough to pay them 3x what I pay joker.com. Idiots.


@BostonSydney Well, here’s one expat. I didn’t come in on WH visa tho, so no help there I’m afraid.


Just completed a 5.54 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/16mIdd #runkeeper


My aversion to leggings may be based on fact that I have never in my life had tights that fit. But cutting the feet off seems like cheating.


@BostonSydney I can tell you in 3 words: “married an Aussie.” 🙂

Sock class done! Taught 9 newbies to turn a heel. Now for a much needed massage…


Dr. Amy does not like her pomelo helmet. http://yfrog.com/0gvutj


@redambition I only made it through half. Really, I just wanted them to finally do it. Everything after is AWFUL.

@sharre She’s an absolute nutter. You, me, Sally… everybody’s copping it from her these days. Try to ignore it.


@sharre Wait, wait… She called you out on the Mod Squad? WHAT A BEEYOTCH. Glad the other mods put her in her place.

Phew! Guild meeting and presentation turned out to be a triumph. Thanks to @sharre and @redambition for nice words. 🙂


Early bedtime. Getting up at 06.30 to head off to the Domain for the Mother’s Day Classic 8K! Goal: just to finish in under an hour.


Just completed a 7.91 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/lTUwB #runkeeper


Woohoo! Goal met exactly. Ran the whole thing without walking, under 60 min, Peaky Striders defeated. Now, a hot shower.

Stress is getting to me. I really need a massage. Perhaps I should’ve accepted the offer from that weird lady at knitting last night…


Snook suggested mussels & beer at Belgian Bier Cafe, and I could’ve wept with joy. Just what I need after stressful week… On my way now!


@venks79 Unfortunately it ain’t over yet! Sucks when your hobbies become 2nd jobs and kill your weekends.


Upstairs at the Belgian Bier Cafe. Mussels and beer have been consumed. http://yfrog.com/0a5o3j


Finally finished my presentation for Knitters’ Guild tomorrow… at 1am. Yikes. My contacts are probably glued to my eyeballs.

@sharre DUDE! I almost wore mine today but switched to black at the last minute. But I had the same impulse.


@SSSYD Um… I DON’T DRIVE. Since when does that benefit “all” Sydneysiders?


The @SSSYD secret is revealed: using Twitter to track parking inspectors. I don’t drive & people who park illegally annoy me. Unfollow!


Awesome link of the day: http://bit.ly/WjKSD – an explanation of why Jughead’s head looks like a crown. This is what the Internet is for.


I’ve got use cases coming out of my ears.


I am suddenly very conscious of my involuntary habit of dancing at my desk while listening to music.


I defy any one of you to listen to “Islands in the Stream” without dancing. IT’S KENNY AND DOLLY, DAMMIT!


@damana Asking for a friend: Would bringing a baby to GGD be a problem? I told her I didn’t see any kids last time…


I want to head to Stitch and Bitch but I’m slowly being strangled by the Spec that Ate East Sydney.


@SSSYD Mostly it was the promise that this would help all Sydneysiders, when really it only helps ones who A) drive and B) illegally park.


Good enough for now. I’m going to knitting.


@redambition That sucks. *hugs* Only one more day til the weekend… You can make itl.


@Steffi_83 Ha! From Spudds last night? How was it??


@Steffi_83 Sure! Mondays are better because they give me more time to recover, but I can do Tue in a pinch…


@Steffi_83 Sure thing… I’ll be there!


Just completed a 5.39 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Ygwpg #runkeeper


My superpower: Ability to peg a small black cat w/ balled up pair of socks from across the room IN THE DARK WITHOUT MY GLASSES ON. Fear me!


I ran for the first time in a week today, 5k at an easy pace. I feel fantastic! I’m optimistic about a good finish in the 8k race on Sunday.

@sharre Yay! That’s one more interesting thing to look at in the cases next year, then. 🙂


Got reply from STA Buses APOLOGISING for behaviour of 461 & 480 drivers @ Broadway. The one I bitched about “will be spoken to.” GOW FTW!


@steven_noble Oh, I can post it if you want. I just got fed up with them stopping 1/2way up the block so people can’t get on in the AM.


@sharre I have been entertaining the idea of knitting a vampire doll and sprinkling glitter on its face for some time. Hm. Possibilities…


Everybody wants to hear the bus story, so here it is: http://bit.ly/1anufg. @steven_noble, feel free to crosspost to LIC if you want.


It’s not nearly as scandalous as you might have guessed.


@twelveeyes I had to google that. I’m only a new Top Gear watcher, so I don’t know all the Stig lore!


Currently drinking my first Mountain Dew in… god… YEARS. My taste buds are saying “no” but my brain is saying OHHHH YEAHHHHHH.


@ScottRhodie Guru?


@Timmay83 You should’ve run down by the domain. You would’ve seen me and @venks79 trying to kick footballs and failing miserably. 🙂


When I listen to James, suddenly I’m a 20-year-old uni student in London all over again…


@Timmay83 It was our class with Spudds. On nice days we go to have a kickaround in the field by the Art Gallery. But we should practice!


@twelveeyes Ahhh, we recorded that one but haven’t watched it yet! I’ll watch with an eye towards a possible knit creation. 🙂


I can confirm that donkey basketball (http://bit.ly/11L74S) was big-time entertainment growing up in Indiana. Probably still is.

@Roceal Most likely, but odd considering I hadn’t consumed any Transformers or Heroes recently. I blame the Snook’s cajun-spiced pork chops.


@imdominating Nice one! I love the writer’s attempt to describe chicken-and-noodles.


RT @imdominating: My area of Indiana made the NYTimes! http://tinyurl.com/dczm9t I like the author’s attempt to describe chicken-n-noodles.


RT @kellymcmahon: Wow, this says it all: http://tinyurl.com/ddzdpt <- The anti-vaccination people make my head explode.


@SSSYD Not #blackout alerts? Twitter already handles that pretty well…


@redambition The TV show? I can’t watch it. I am super annoyed by the realisation that there are only, like, 20 people TOTAL on Aussie TV.


Stupid butchers making me feel all self-conscious and foreign and crap… http://tinyurl.com/dekhc3


@SSSYD Cane toads. Early warning system for the menace from the north?


@kdelarue Have been following along with your tweets and hoping for the best. My thoughts go out to you and your family…

@shanea Wait, what? You need to include me on those! Or at least send summary details. 🙂


Man, what is UP with all the porn follows today? Are you guys blocking these people? So far I’m just ignoring but it’s starting to annoy me.


@wookie_man I haven’t bothered blocking anybody yet, but I might start.


Going to punch some stuff. W00t.


Haven’t yet managed to repeat feat of 101m in 20s on rower. Very frustrating. Anybody got secret rowing machine tips?


Dreamed the Transformers caught me & sent me to Fat Camp. I was rescued by Matt Parkman and the Heroes. WTF?


Why SMS uses only 160 characters: http://bit.ly/W5WO1. See, @Opheli8 ! It isn’t just to annoy us…

Have suddenly found myself in midst of Communist worker parade/protest on George St. There’s an awful lot of flair visible for Communists.


@SupFarn Hahaha… We’ll get there if I have to frog-march him all the way. Say, you guys up for some Guitar Hero?? 🙂


Stuck in traffic on King St. Girl next to me is eating an ORANGE ON THE BUS. Ugh. If she starts trimming her nails, I’m officially in hell.


Full as a tick. Many thanks to Eva & #SupFarn for inviting us over for leftovers. Mud crab, marinara, ice cream, profiteroles: Goodbye diet!


Happy Star Wars Day, Twitter. May the 4th be with you. (via @andrewsayer)

CRAP. Fell asleep on the couch at 4:30, and only woke up when our 6pm dinner invitation host SMSed to see where we were. 🙁


The heavens have opened. Thunder CRASH! Lighting FLASH!


Nothing like waking up to a “ZOMG URGENT” email demanding a change to the Guild website from someone who ISN’T THE BOSS OF ME. Grrrrrr.


@witty_knitter Oh, I sent a scathing reply before I’d had my coffee. Will forward to you.
