    @drkknits @randomknits Don’t say that shit publicly! I just emailed five people to try to convince them to volunteer for Inner City. šŸ™‚


    Me and @SerriLaw at the Melbourne Cup party! @ Australia Square http://t.co/ik7sHhYhAY


    Every time I see an L38 bus now, I hear Admiral Ackbar: IT’S A TRAP! (They don’t stop at Broadway. Ask me how I know.)


    Most of the mi9 jump_in team at Melb Cup party today. @ Australia Square http://t.co/GBpaNKEHEi


    I wore my homemade horsey fascinator again. http://t.co/ydOeHFfc1Z


    @mmastertheone But they pick up there in the morning. They just don’t set down there at night. Tricksy!

    @drkknits Could have a look, stay the night, and take one home Sunday?


    Wow. Shrink ray hit @tobysestate beans. Bags went from 250g to 200g. That’s kind of annoying.


    Belt or no belt? No belt is more comfy. http://t.co/VosgSiFyT2


    Thanks everyone! I’ve gone no belt for now, but stuffed it in my bag so I’ve got the option. šŸ™‚


    @RoseRed_Shoes The skinny one didn’t look great. I think I need some belt loops to keep it in place.


    @RoseRed_Shoes I have a giant flower with little horses in it (the one I made last year) also in my bag. šŸ™‚


    @redambition I think the dress might need to be a little more fitted for that, as it ends up bunching around the belt.


    Half the guys on the team wore suits, the other half did not. We’re teasing the latter.


    @messicat Photo and location? I’m looking for some nice summer sandals.

    First fitting. Hmm. The top is good, but I need some more room in the hips. Goodbye seam allowance… http://t.co/kwdp91Bnfs


    @RoseRed_Shoes I got it at Frabric-a-Brac last year. No idea what it is other than cotton, but it seemed right for 1973 pattern!


    Adding sleeves… Nearly finished! http://t.co/kRCEVZIwRg


    The annoying thing is, I think this may be technically the best garment I’ve sewn. No bodges so far! But I worry it might be ugly?


    It’s that center front seam, I think. It’s just so obviously from a different style era. I think I just can’t get past it.


    @zephyrama A gift from my step-mom. Published 1973! http://t.co/GZ5HAc9ctv


    @drkknits @randomknits It’s a skimming a-line, but my pot belly sticks way out and ruins shape. I think Spanx may need to be deployed.


    @zephyrama The accompanying leaflet on how to disguise your chubbiness is a hoot too. šŸ™‚


    @zephyrama I’ll blog it when I’m done.


    Hem length: above the knee? I’m inclined. (But this belt is squeezing my SPLEEN.) http://t.co/E4Risy0QKT


    @drkknits Rodd said any shorter and I’m into Austin Powers territory.


    @RoseRed_Shoes I have a thin black belt too, which looks more modern. We’ll have to have styling discussion tomorrow. šŸ™‚


    @knitterjp @drkknits Haha! Too bad; you’re gonna have to look at it Tuesday for Melb Cup work party!


    @drkknits When you come to Sydney on Saturday, you could go play with some.

    Adventures in Vintage Sewing: McCall’s 3609. A ā€œPounds-Thinnerā€ pattern. Harrumph. We’ll see about that. http://t.co/I9Fkih78RJ


    @drkknits I instantly started drooling.


    @randomknits I nearly came to Campbelltown today. Snook found the outdoor setting I want there on Gumtree, but we missed out on it. šŸ™


    @redambition I was tossing up on gatecrashing. Rodd’s on call for entire weekend and pretty much can’t leave the house though. šŸ™


    @redambition I’m also not drinking this month, and You People Will Tempt Me. Hmmm….


    @randomknits Way to go! But wait. I thought you tweeted yesterday that you weren’t enrolled or something?!

    @knitterjp I’ve got Goonies on DVD! And we are so using that for the G milestone of Jump-in… cc @hoganau @didwa


    @mikeefreedom No idea who it is, but clearly I need to stake it out and become friends with them. MAYBE I COULD RIDE IN THE SIDECAR!

    RT @GGDSydney: Looking forward to tonight’s Girl Geek Sydney event at Suncorp! See you all there #ggdsyd


    I have to say, today was my best ever attempt with shwoopy liquid eyeliner!


    RT @the_snook: So, this is happening again. http://t.co/gnKPWlX30A


    RT @sebastianparis: @mi9 decided to simulate an AWS Sydney failure; thanks #mi9cloudstorm :/ // Awww, it’s been fun! Maybe not for you. šŸ™‚


    Girl Geek Dinner tonight! Why so many empty seats? PIKERS. (@ Suncorp Place w/ 2 others) http://t.co/gEIJ3WOHUk


    Fun bingo game icebreaker at #GGDSyd. ā€œDo you collect anything weird?ā€ ā€œIs miniature furniture weird?ā€ ā€œI vote YES.ā€


    Suncorp redesigned and developed new site in under 3 months? Wow. Hearing how Collaborative Design helped them work more agile. #GGDSyd


    Loop 11 (http://t.co/xdTlbLlOHR) looks like an interesting solution for user testing. Bookmarking for later… #GGDSyd


    Using Google Earth as personal world tour! Brilliant. #GGDSyd


    Okay, so we all just sent Laura Prophet Linkedin invites, right? #GGDSyd


    @pixel8ted It was booked out. I’m talking about the no-shows!


    @timparsons Clearly you didn’t get one of mine today. šŸ™‚


    Suncorp Test Analyst talking quality. I just saw a figure of 94.6% code coverage and my jaw literally dropped. Wow. #GGDSyd


    I suggest there should be some sort of official #GGDSyd drinking game where we all drink whenever Jira is mentioned and @pyko salutes.


    @gilmae I am not at liberty to say. But I’ve never worked anywhere with that high!


    @gilmae Oh. CBA was probably high for stuff. Never got that far there. šŸ™‚


    Heh. I wonder if she’ll include the NSA on this diagram about who’s tracking you online. #GGDSyd


    RT @roald_dahl: #TrickorTreat? Vengeance is Mine, Inc would be happy to help… #Halloween #darksideofDahl http://t.co/GZnZzBpDz6


    @bechaagsma Brilliant!


    Hey @the_snook – have we had any trick-or-treaters?! (Or did you lock the gate?)


    @the_snook Cans of off-brand Aldi cat food? šŸ™‚


    @barrysaunders Thank you! Australia just needs to learn Halloween etiquette, that’s all. Only go to houses with lights/decorations. Simple!


    @Gelato_Messina Pretty sure there should be some bacon in there for true accuracy.


    OHFFS. It takes a special kind of wanker to connect Halloween with both the Vietnam War and the denigration of the Aborigines. WHATEVER.


    @clepetit I think the word you’re looking for is ā€œDerp.ā€


    RT @HeldenMommy: Happy Halloween! I *must* love my kids. I give you Hermione, Hedwig, and Hagrid. #harrypotteryourekillingme http://t.co/…


    Co-worker just unboxed an iPad Air. The new new ones that just went on sale, that people are still queuing up for. So very shiny…

    Just booked tickets to AN EVENING WITH MANDY PATINKIN http://t.co/2gwSXKl7GF #SydOperaHouse #theaternerd


    Orange tights, black dress, sequinned mask, candy, cookies, decorations, pumpkin… I appear to be ready for work. HAPPY HALLOWEEN @Mi9!


    RT @tweeter_anita: So what happens when Halloween and Diwali coincide? Why this wonderful thing happens of course! ht @sunny_hundal http://…


    @surrenderdotty Pumpkin isn’t the flavour. It’s the pumpkin pie SPICE that’s the Shit. Haven’t I made you a pie? Ask @gilmae. THE BEST.


    RT @GordyPls: You realise Christmas wasn’t invented here either yeah?


    @gilmae @surrenderdotty It was sitting on your empty chair at The Breeders, so I gave it to some grotty Newts on the way out.


    RT @TaylorHerringPR: The creepiest Halloween outfit we’ve seen so far *shudders* https://t.co/BB9OCkIn9J (via @FelicityMorse + @SocialMedia…


    @randomknits The cupcake toppers took 2 MONTHS from Victoria, with no explanation from Auspost. When in doubt, blame them.


    Okay, today’s Google Doodle is pretty awesome.


    @drwitty_knitter @lizfoschia Nah, that’s cheating. You’re meant to start clean-shaven on #Movember 1. That’s the way @the_snook does it.


    @nolim1t I’m going! Application accepted. šŸ™‚


    @nolim1t Oh wait. I meant for RailsGirls. Are you mentoring at that one?


    Happy Halloween! @ Mi9 http://t.co/ODAmwPuQ28

    @Jaykavich It’s for the Lounge section upstairs


    @Jaykavich No worries. And if you know anybody who still needs one, let me know!


    @drkknits I was there yesterday and managed to restrain myself. šŸ™‚

    NO.


    I can’t believe I haven’t been able to find anyone to use a pair of Breeders tickets tonight!


    Catching train to Newtown. Had to queue behind 4 idiot hipsters each paying $3.60 train fare with eftpos.


    Pre-Breeders dinner with the girls! Just waiting for Al to turn up… (@ The Sultan’s Table w/ @knitterjp) [pic]: http://t.co/Mbto2bU1gn

    Ah, LinkedIn. Where my high school geography teacher I haven’t seen in 18 years endorses me for Requirements Gathering.


    @cathempire Fantastic. Probably will never see that many women over 40 kicking so much ass on stage together again in my life.


    RT @heathergracious: Snackable food & the pre cut apple industry http://t.co/cI3gugqPi4 via @bec7ford


    Really surprised to see that @HeartI3reaker Fashion received legal threat to change their name. That sucks. At least they’re not closing.


    @knitdra My number one “strength”? Competition. *shaking my head*


    Woohoo! Just got approved as attendee for @railsgirlsau next month. Very excited!

    I hate this place. Except for the sausages. (at @Bunnings Warehouse) http://t.co/aoAxLi51X9


    @gilmae I DMed you last night…


    @KaisaKaisaKaisa I have one. I think it pays for itself, but you’ve got to take travel into account.


    @KaisaKaisaKaisa Incidentally, I can get you in as a guest if you want to check it out before joining.


    @gilmae Did you want the ticket then?


    @Jaykavich Are you still looking for a ticket to the Breeders tonight??


    @NessNomster Any interest in the Breeders tonight? I’ve got an extra ticket… šŸ™‚
