On an expedition to cupcake supply store in Camperdown. Wish @carbolicious was here!

---

@AusVintageGrrl icedaffair.com.au – Church St in Camperdown. Very cool, and they teach classes!

---

Trying on flynet hats for our Outback trip. http://twitpic.com/dxt8l

---

@witty_knitter Fiona and I are coming…

---

Dr. Amy explores the Kitty High-Rise @mrs_sockvictim gave us today! (Petey is still hiding. He dislikes change.) http://twitpic.com/dynsj

---

Sitting in The Malaya at King St Wharf waiting for Eva’s Hens’ Night to begin…

---

The restaurant has forbidden us from spreading penis-shaped confetti on the table. Shame.

---

The guest of honor is here! Dodgy tiara and sash are in place…

---

Blowing into my pornographic noisemaker… http://twitpic.com/dyy5w

---

“What are you doing, you geek?” “I’m tweeting my penis.” (Bachelorette parties rule.)

---

@DDsD LOVE Redoak. I like the Organic Pale Ale.

---

The Bristol Arms Retro consists solely of Hens Parties and middle-aged guys liking to pull. I kinda love it.

---

I haven’t danced on a platform in fake smoke for like 9 years. Man, so fun. But what is this CRAP that passes for music nowadays? #fb

---

I REFUSE to dance to Lady Gaga. REFUSE. #fb

---

Usher?? Retro?? I’m too old for this shite.

---

Closed my eyes for 2 seconds to clear fake smoke. Bouncer threatened to boot me for being drunk. Think that’s my cue to leave.

---

ZOMG. One night clubbing at 32 = deafness. On my way home now.

---

Just realized earlier penis-tweet doesn’t make sense without picture. (It was Play-doh.) On the bus home now… http://twitpic.com/dz9md

---

You’re all so right. One night = less than 2 hours? I’m a complete lightweight. (Alas, I am also still deaf.)

---

@thisismywww I have no idea. We were on ground floor? Started off w/ 80s then changed to 00s crap. Wouldn’t mind going for just 80s/90s.

---

I’m home from Hens Night before Snook is home from Bucks Night. This means HE WINS. #fb

---

The theme of the night is cheese.

---

@mrs_sockvictim SO. CUTE.

---

Home alone while Snook works late again. MythTV broken. Again. No knitting mojo. Bored out of my skull. Sleep, alcohol, or both?

---

@venks79 Why didn’t I think of that? Now there’s a party…

---

@knitabulous I’m at work! Run just didn’t sync up right away, so I had to re-send data from the bus on my way in… 🙂

---

Wooo! Got some GREAT feedback on a spec I wrote yesterday. Nice feeling.

---

Huh. Just realised that #runkeeper GPS was slightly off today. Corrected points online. Ended up running bit farther than I thought.

---

@crumpet There are Americans who agree with you. WTF indeed.

---

Anyone know why Army helicopter is zooming over Sydney CBD?

---

RT @imdominating: http://www.feministing.com/archives/017214.html <- Oh FFS. Now I want Snook to take MY name!

---

For @imdominating and the other RPattz fans: http://bit.ly/iLsE4. Only available for Aussie mobiles though!

---

@imdominating Check your email in a few minutes. 🙂

---

RT @venks79: This should explain the army helicopters over Sydney CBD (though the article is a few days old) http://bit.ly/JGwfU

---

RT @Camee: Damn it people! Leggings do NOT qualify as pants! No one needs to see the exact outline of your lower body! <! SING IT, SISTER.

---

Rodd: “re: surnames. Maybe we should switch :)” Me: “You mean I’D BE THE SNOOK??” Too weird!

---

@misswired Considering that it took SEVEN YEARS for him to comment on my blog, don’t hold your breath.

---

Not feeling like going to knitting tonight…

---

@steven_noble Just booked for SMC. Perhaps we’ll finally get to meet, neighbour! 🙂

---

Feeling like I need to zone out a bit. Guitar Hero is in order, I think.

---

Didn’t end up playing GH after all. Instead put my head down and finished bunch of work on Knitters Guild site. Pretty boring, really.

---

It is a morning where everyone at the bus stop is wearing TOO MUCH PERFUME. I didn’t realize they even made Exclamation! anymore.

---

@knitabulous HA! Not bloodly likely. Just allergies and a bit headachey.

---

I have accepted the reality that we won’t make it back to the States this year…

---

Confession: I actually love when stupid punk bands speed up non-punk songs. Bonus points for 80’s songs. (Yes, I was closet Lee Harding fan)

---

First Leoben was creepy. Now he’s CREEPY HOT.

---

RT @imdominating @therealnph the best of nerd vandalism! http://bit.ly/BbkkF <- PHP + drunk + spraypaint = funny.

---

@brockleyboyo Yeah, finally making my way through it via DVD. Nearly at end of season 3.

---

Just completed a 4.00 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/pZmlC #RunKeeper

---

Slow jog with hill repeats on Wilson St. My lower back – which was fine during C2S – is KILLING me now. 🙁

---

Snook just got email “confirming” he’d signed petition against US health care reform. Sent website a scathing rebuke. They lie and lie…

---

Holy crap. How is it 1:00 already?

---

If you used the St. George ATM on York Street, there was a skimmer attached. @TimBags, 600+ other people were affected. Watch your account!

---

@randomknits You’re stirring the pot over on Rav today, you stinker! The mods are having a pow-wow…

---

@DDsD Not quite. We have one. Snook never looks it. I just end up nagging him when we’re supposed to do shit.

---

Got emailed by a journalist wanting me to comment on graffiti knitting. HA! This is going to be good.

---

@stufromoz Not sure. It was my friend @TimBags who got skimmed, and he’s where I heard about it…

---

Rain and storm, oh my! Cats are hiding.

---

@Bex_the_Femme I’ll send you my reply. You’ll like it.

---

Knitters: Which hypothetical name for a LYS do you like best? Newtown Stitchery / The Newtown Nook / The Granny Square / Champion on King

---

@redambition Ahhh, but imagine the merchandising opportunities! T-shirts that say: “I heart COK…” HAHAHAHA! 🙂

---

Just completed a 4.65 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/PrT52 #RunKeeper

---

@witty_knitter I don’t know if it would be 100% knitting just yet…

---

Just completed a 14.15 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/1kUwYs #RunKeeper

---

Can’t find Snook. No cell signal. Wandering and sweaty! #city2surf

---

Found Snook. Trying to find other MBA teammates. Sitting behind Accenture tent at south end… #city2surf

---

@Opheli8 So far only Paul J. I saw Venks at 5km mark but no sign since. And Sven is MIA.

---

Me and Paul J after the race.Paul kicked my butt! We never did find Venks or Sven. #city2surf http://twitpic.com/d8kl7

---

@coach_chris First half great, second half not so great. (Stitch, cramping.) Still finished in about 110. Home now and showered. 🙂

---

@venks79 Well done! Your pace was much more consistent than mine.

---

@devvyleys Outdoor running is so hard. Have to build up slowly. Try the Couch to 5K when you’re ready. I’m sure you can do it!

---

Crap. I took about 10 photos during the #city2surf, but crappy 3G coverage meant only 2 got uploaded to @runkeeper. Any way to resubmit?

---

@bennymarsh Did you remember to turn off wifi? I only get bad gps when I forget. My #city2surf distance was spot on.

---

Now the reward: Full. Body. Massage.

---

We are like 5 minutes into Transformers: The Movie (the animated one), and I’m completely lost. How does a giant robot turn into a tiny gun?

---

@sharre For latchhook? Very, very difficult. M&S used to carry it, but supplier stopped making it. No idea where to get it these days.

---

Insecticons? There is obviously a whole mythology here that I’m missing out on.

---

“There’s a girl Autobot? What does she turn into? If it’s, like, a goddamn hair brush, I’M GONNA VOMIT.”

---

@shanea I just want to know why the girl Transformer sucks so bad. She hasn’t transformed yet!

---

@randomknits Wow! Ten points to @gilmae for originality and plating. But how did it taste?

---

@shanea It was time for Snook’s WoW raiding session, so I took advantage and switched off Transformers. (Nerdiest. Sentence. Ever.)

---

WICKET! Man, I might actually get to see the Poms lose before bedtime. (This is MUCH better than Transformers already.)

---

Any of you have Microsoft Works? Trying to open a .wps document…

---

@gilmae Tried it. OO wanted me to choose from 100+ non-alphabetised filter formats, none of which matched. But NeoOffice opened it 1st try!

---

Thanks, everybody. I got it open. OO didn’t like it, but NeoOffice opened it just fine…

---

@Opheli8 I don’t do sewing, really. Hm. Wonder if I could knit one.

---

My Race Report for the 2009 City 2 Surf is up, complete with lots of pics from the course: http://bit.ly/j75V1

---

Just read the phrase “And you’re only getting older” in email from @carbolicious. THANKS, SIS. Great way to start my Monday…

---

ARGH. Halfway to city and just realized I left half the crap I printed out for Guild meeting at home. Will have to muddle through.

---

Brilliant Guild meeting! 3 new members, approval for workshop plans, great show & tell. Lovely tea from @WittyKnitter and Sandra too!

---

Felt a bit tired so curled up on the couch to “rest my eyes.” Woke up three hours later.

---

@TimBags I was hoping it was going to be shaped like a racecar from your comment. That would’ve been cool.

---

Snook is prepping side dishes to go with his lovely roast lamb. No carb-loading for me for #city2surf; trying to keep to my usual routine.

---

Can’t believe folks are lining up for #city2surf already. I just got up! One of the perks of living close to the city, I guess.

---

On the bus to #city2surf starting line. Have to remember this is NOT my goal race. Just a training run. Just a training run…

---

View towards starting line down College St. 75K runners in 2008 #city2surf http://twitpic.com/d7l70

---

Made it to portaloos. Trying to stay warm before start. Won’t be tweeting during race, but photos will be up right after. #city2surf

---

Me and my new buddy Steven waiting to start. Any second now. #city2surf http://twitpic.com/d7npb http://bit.ly/Nn1Up

---

Confession: I didn’t even realise that Twitter was down.

---

Just blogged a review of new #runkeeper release that supports geotagging photos doing your workout: http://bit.ly/1mb1T

---

Just how I like to spend my lunch break – sitting in the bank. It’s time to fix account name typo though. I am NOT married to the SMOOK.

---

For future reference: ANZ Phone Help – useless. Staff at Broadway – useless. Sunil at George St branch – only helpful person in whole co!

---

Official photos of me from last weekend’s Bay Run: http://bit.ly/TZlBn

---

@Ezzles Hooray! Congratulations… Where’s the job??

---

Ahem. Inner City group of Knitters Guild is up to 48(!) members, no doubt due to my brilliant (and modest) leadership skillz.

---

Trying to work up the willpower to get out of my warm bed and walk over to the Eveleigh Farmers’ Market.

---

Just back from Eveleigh Markets. Propose new economic indicator: how many trendy small dogs are wearing clothes at an Inner West event.

---

@coach_chris I’ll probably just be getting to Heartbreak Hill. EEP! (Be sure to Twitter afterwards. Maybe we can meet up!)

---

New #Runkeeper Pro version is live in AU app store! Perfect timing for City2Surf. Will take photos to enforce walk breaks.

---

@bellsg Week 1 is traditionally awesome. Just don’t get discouraged if Week 2 isn’t as huge!

---

Heh. http://kenyanbirthcertificategenerator.com – for when you need to discredit an enemy’s citizenship.

---

Note to self: If you tweet pictures of desk with incriminating bottles of Diet Coke, the Snook WILL CATCH IT.

---

@Opheli8 @misswired Sorry, ladies. I’ve only got sock wool on me today. (Must remember to bring a larger stash for beanie emergencies.)

---

My two favorite things today: http://twitpic.com/cxzee. I’m gonna be wired.

---

@Bex_the_Femme Proof that two WRONGS make an UNHOLY TORNADO OF WRONGNESS. *shudder*

---

@fictillius As a woman, I’d happy trade Fernwood for the Melbourne Club.

---

@DDsD Obviously you haven’t been on one that was tuned to “Transport TV”. (I’m not kidding.)

---

Heading to knitting…

---

Holy crap. Just watched Jamie Oliver’s pig special… after having pork chops for dinner. Next ones will be guaranteed free range.

---

I actually just had to run into the street and wave my arms to get a 461 driver to stop at Broadway. Kris 1; Forces of Evil 0.

---

Check out the 5.07 km run I did with @runkeeper http://bit.ly/KY1Kn #RunKeeper
