@sharre Idiots at Optus took like a week to port mine. 🙁

---

@witty_knitter There are others too. A friend recommended Tweetie. But TwitterFon is free and works well enough. 🙂

---

@kellymcmahon They made explicit rule after OzTBL 1st season. Chick drank like 4 gallons of water before weigh-in. http://tinyurl.com/cw8y8y

---

just found Greasemoney script that identifies twitter spammers and marketroids. Very useful. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25552

---

My friend Kate knitted The Stig & entered him in the Easter Show. Seriously. http://tinyurl.com/da5upe

---

@alyshajane She actually based it on this free pattern: http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter07/PATTfairy.html

---

On the way to Glebe Point Diner for anniversary dinner. Supposed to be pretty good!

---

Crispy duck with fig, Brussels sprouts, and barley. SO GOOD. http://twitpic.com/2oc90

---

Best brussels sprouts EVER. Not pictured: crab & chestnut soup. Made my double boxing workout all worthwhile. Great meal on a rainy night!

---

Will be attending AIMIA Essential Digital PM Skills workshop at end of month. http://www.aimia.com.au/i-cms?page=4344 Anybody else going?

---

@sharre I LOVE mine, as you might guess. Even the Snook is seriously swayed. And @AusVintageGrrl has given in?! You will be assimilated.

---

Huzzah! Booked in for Girl Geek Dinner in two weeks w/ @redambition and @AusVintageGrrl. girlgeekdinnerssydney.blogspot.com

---

@acatinatree When in doubt, it’s probably the effing SMH site. HATE IT.

---

As I said on Ravelry, I can’t even watch the Ped-Egg advert without gagging. IT’S A FOOT GRATER. For some reason that makes my skin crawl.

---

@randomknits @sharre I’m on $39 + $13 optus too, but it’s gone now. 🙁 My data usage is way < 200MB. (I have wifi @ home & work tho.)

---

@acatinatree Still need one? I’ve got a list purportedly from “Verizon/Sybase + assorted sources”. Can email to you if you like.

---

@randomknits Pretty sure. Rodd was interested but they pulled it 2 weeks after I got it. I think $59 is lowest Optus now. Will check.

---

@randomknits Yep, gone. No more plain Yes plans. Just Timeless and Cap for loads more. 🙁

---

@randomknits Rodd’s plan is to buy one outright, unlock it, and get a cheap plan with decent data. He’s with Exetel; he thinks it’ll work.

---

Sometimes supporting your wife is making her go to boxing when she’d give anything not to. Because she’ll be glad she went afterwards.

---

RT @acatinatree @markpollard: Free Twitter session in The Rocks, Syd Thurs 23 April http://tinyurl.com/cayzsp

---

hates this weather. There’s nothing worse than being steamy bus in the pouring rain, getting dripped on by brollies and roof and wet people.

---

@witty_knitter You’ve got iPhone, right? I use TwitterFon (free from App Store). But no, we have no SMS support in Oz (yet).

---

is relishing a sunny Fall day in Woolloomooloo. http://twitpic.com/2lfto

---

is enjoying the chaos. Power just went out all over Sydney CBD. What the heck’s happening? Just walked down 10 flights to get out.

---

wonders why traffic lights are out on George & William but not around the park? Something to do with train stations? #blackout #sydney

---

@wookie_man And I hope you didn’t drive. Streets are insane. Fire trucks everywhere and lights are out.

---

is amused by #sydney #blackout tweets. No #zombies spotted yet. Saw lots of fire trucks in city but no smoke yet. 3G is spotty.

---

has made it past Central. Power seems to be okay here. Still no #zombies sighted, but smelly Newts make it hard to tell. #blackout #sydney

---

RT @JennifARGH: New show on Ten; Bondi Zombie. #sydney #blackout #zombies

---

just visited new giant Harris Farm. (Power is on.) More everything + breads + meat! No #zombies. #sydney #blackout http://twitpic.com/2lkxc

---

@venks79 Fun, isn’t it? Best excuse for Twitter, I think.

---

is finally at home with provisions and POWER! Now to fortify doors and improvise #zombie decapitating device. #sydney #blackout

---

can confirm that Chippo has power and Internets. Suck it, Glebe! #sydney #blackout

---

has just realized that all of these silly #zombie tweets are going straight to Facebook. Maybe I should turn that off.

---

@randomknits Me too. Yet my inner 3-year-old also thinks she wears pretty, pretty dresses.

---

RT @jannism: Skype for iphone ready tomorrow http://tinyurl.com/cgjy4a Holy crap! I may have to finally pay for Skype credits. 2c/min to US!

---

Gearing up for a run outside. In the dark. (Come on, Daylight Savings…)

---

Listening to the rain. Run postponed. I’m hardcore, but not that hardcore.

---

@virtual4now A steady rain I could do, but this is turning full on and off like a faucet. I’ll do boxing today instead.

---

Just installed Skype for iPhone and successfully tried it out. Hey family, you can call me for free at work/home now!

---

is trying to get Joomla extension to recognize PEAR SOAP package & failing miserably. FRUSTRATION.

---

is going out for a much-needed run.

---

Just completed a 6.12 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/py3Y1 #runkeeper

---

@mrs_sockvictim Way to go! Go the Creaky Knees! 🙂

---

@mrs_sockvictim Did the battery die? You can have mine; it’s still got plenty of juice.

---

@redambition Happy late birthday! 🙂

---

RT @chrisgander: just heard our smash-hit Mobile X-Ray Scanner application was mentioned on ROVE last night…. Did anyone catch it?

---

is wishing the Snook good luck on his first day at #geekdom!

---

is starting second half of marathon meeting, fortified with tea. I’ve run out of yarn tho, so it’ll be more tweeting & less knitting.

---

is losing the will to live. Let’s wind it up, ladies! Brain dribbling out my ears…

---

is finally relaxing on the couch with some yummy stew and fresh bread. Loooong day. Jumper turned out great tho: http://tinyurl.com/c3lg8z

---

is twittering in the dark. I wish the only candles we have didn’t have competing scents. #earthhour #sydney

---

@crumpet Same here! I looooove changing the sheets. I swear I sleep better.

---

@ljc Hold up. There exists a clothes dryer that finished a load in 15 minutes?? Does it require rocket fuel or something?!

---

@randomknits You’re the knitting juggernaut of 2009. I’m just glad you didn’t enter an Aran too! Congrats… 🙂

---

@randomknits Woot! Na Craga is blocking at home as we speak. Did you spot any worthy competitors on the tables?

---

@wookie_man Some random chicks: http://twitpic.com/2hfex. You only just missed out though!

---

@kellymcmahon You forgot to add: “Also, I’m in love with her.”

---

is lamenting that my blog seems to be momentarily borked. Will give the host a few more minutes before blasting off a support ticket.

---

is a fan of Quadrahosting, really, but I’m getting sick of support msgs that assume I’m a complete dumbass. THE SITE IS DOWN FOR A REASON.

---

@knitness I told you it was an addiction! Socks are like the crystal meth of the knitting world.

---

@acatinatree Well, you’ll have one more newbie on Monday, finally! Although if you can get him to sign up to Twitter, I’ll eat my hat. 🙂

---

is happy that my site is back up. Enquiring minds need to know the potential perils of not shampooing and the merits of pet goats.

---

is drinking beer and contemplating which Guitar Hero song to perform. Friday arvos rock.

---

@randomknits @knitabulous Seriously? An all chick rock band is a personal dream of mine. I claim bass or vocals.

---

is relieved that both of my fears were unrealized. Na Craga is nearly dry and ready to be delivered. And my hangover is manageable. WIN.

---

is at first meeting of new Guild Exec meeting. Trying to keep my head down and avoid drama!

---

RT @balsamiq Good article about prototyping tools from #AdaptivePath: http://is.gd/oXWM (I didn’t realize there were so many!)

---

likes to mock Dave Matthew Band nowadays, but when it pops up on iTunes randomly, I don’t turn it off. It’s totally 1997 in my head!

---

@knitabulous Remember to keep your eyes peeled when you walk your stuff to the table & let me know if you spot any serious Aran competish!

---

@realtimshady I once read the whole thing IN ONE NIGHT trying to make deadline for a paper in college. I couldn’t see straight the next day.

---

@mrs_sockvictim Me too. Trying out a new recipe. If it works, you may want it yourself! (Lamb, carrot, and barley stew.)

---

wonders why I never notice all the white cat hair on my black T-shirt until I step out the front door.

---

@randomknits Twitter meteorology. I love it when you guys alert me to bad stuff coming up from the south…

---

is trying out Cha-Ching for iPhone. Got any good tips? Doesn’t really seem to have docs other than support forums. #app

---

hasn’t run in a week. It’s like inertia has taken over. I need to get back out on the road!

---

is waiting for a toasty turkey sandwich at Toby’s. I feel weird not ordering coffee though. Like people who order Corona at brewpubs.

---

@crumpet I use TwitterFon. Free, simple, works good!

---

@wookie_man Hey, you’re my 100th follower! You win the big prize of… HONOUR AND PRESTIGE, my friend! 🙂

---

is getting ready for our first Strata meeting tonight. Should be interesting, considering how the agent LOST OUR ADDRESS last year.

---

@wookie_man Nah, it’s there! I saw it afterwards. 🙂

---

has just nominated the Snook for the Strata Executive Committee. It’s getting a bit heated here!

---

is undergoing tag-team belly-kneading from cats. Little one went first; now big one is pummeling my guts. It’s kind of sweet. I’m the mommy.

---

is running late, as ever.

---

just saw at Broadway that they’re doubling size of Harris Farm. I may never have to go in Coles again!

---

just watched Irish guy on Spicks and Specks perform “Jump Around” IN GAELIC. Best. Rap. Ever.

---

just got a notification that my MOM is following me on Twitter. Hi, Mom!

---

is back at work and feeling approximately 90% healthy, yet still sick enough to justify a bacon & egg roll for breakfast.

---

@crumpet The button on the headphones rocks my world. The first time I got a call on it I nearly fell over.
