    @aunty_toots I baked all the things before, just in a more laborious manner. I finally killed the hand mixer this past Monday. šŸ™‚


    @aunty_toots RED to match the kitchen. And I’ve got Wonder Woman decals for it on order from the US. šŸ˜€


    It’s my last day at CBA! Monday I start my new role at @Mi9 working on an agile team. Very excited for the future! http://t.co/paSL7NH8Pm


    @virtualwolf Three months ago. Went fast!


    .@CommBank Thank you so much! Maybe I’ll be back someday. CBA is a great place to work. šŸ™‚


    Congrats to the @Sitback team on the redesigned Luna Park site! I wrote the spec for that; very cool to see it live. http://t.co/2qS6ocTCax


    @jojoconstance Haha, and I was inspired in turn by my friend @venks79. At this rate, all of Sydney will change jobs this year. šŸ™‚


    @miss_reecie LOVE IT. But yes, you are insane.


    Signing off and heading to my exit interview!


    Computer and security pass handed over. Let’s party! (@ Pumphouse Bar & Restaurant – @pumphousesydney) http://t.co/jZOHwibNTe


    @drkknits I’m sure there is!


    The question is: what recipe should we use to christen our new KitchenAid? DON’T SAY PAVLOVA.


    @randomknits But pumpkin pie comes out of a can! No mixer necessary, really. šŸ™‚


    @drkknits Rodd just yelled from the bathroom: NO CHERPUMPLE!


    @witty_knitter I made them once but I didn’t beat for 15 minutes. Or maybe I did, and that’s why my handmixer died.


    @randomknits @gilmae I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I’ve always wanted to live in a castle! You should totally move there.


    @tinkabel RED! No attachments yet other than the default. šŸ™‚


    @carlfish I read the bit about ā€œexplicitā€ and immediately flashed to the Bilquis chapter. Yikes.

    Knitters: I just got a message from Anna!! Matthew Wesley Lo born at 12:30 am this morning by C-section. Photos coming soon!

    @ericscheid 5C? It’s CBA’s offices at Darling Harbour.


    @ericscheid Oh. No. I’m an ES BA. ES BA’s are based at SOP mostly, but the project I’m on is at CBP L6. Til tomorrow anyway…


    @ericscheid Tomorrow’s my last day! Should’ve told me before. šŸ™‚


    @witty_knitter I think so. CBA is great for GLBT rights. There’s a group called UNITY on internal chat with 600 members!


    Chorizo Scotch Egg! @ The Duck Inn Pub & Kitchen http://t.co/RHOneeVNjK


    @witty_knitter I suspect @ozdj can tell us about it. He is the font of CBA knowledge. Derek – how supportive is CBA of GLBT community?


    @randomknits Tweetbot says its been 2 hours.


    @ozdj Awww, thank you!

    @the_snook That is a bigass box.


    @HouseRetailAus @the_snook RED! But it’ll look even better once the Wonder Woman decals I ordered from the US arrive. šŸ™‚


    @HouseRetailAus @the_snook Will do!!

    I just bought Wonder Woman decals for my new KitchenAid mixer. I am such a parody of myself it isn’t even funny.


    @aimee_maree On Amazon. Just search for ā€œAmazonian Princess decalā€, hilariously. Won’t ship here so my sister will forward to me.

    From Wendy Davis in Austin yesterday, then the Australian leadership spill last night, and waking up to the DOMA news? Whiplash. But happy.

    @drkknits You’re coming to the Bowlo tonight, right?


    @drkknits I’ll leave at 5 on the dot and head to 99 York!


    @stufromoz They were always going to do that. A symbolic victory and stalling tactics were best we could hope for!

    @roykravat @katemorris Did you take the test? Or do you do that after?


    Omg. Hart is THE BEST. @drkknits @imdominating You guys will love that. Click all the video links! http://t.co/A8sOvCiGSR


    Knitting as political protest. #knitgate http://t.co/I8Mltqr2XB


    QUESTION: Is Anna Kendrick actually singing?? This changes everything. @lotsofco @imdominating


    I actually just said: ā€œOh, she incorporated his song! WAIT. THAT EXACT THING HAPPENED AT THE END OF BRING IT ON.ā€ Still awesome.


    @lotsofco @imdominating Well, that movie was CHARMING. (My fave was the Indian rapper that I just realised is also on the Mindy Project.)


    @lotsofco @imdominating So I thank you both for the recommendation! (But I still think it’s totes lame to cry at Breakfast Club.)


    @mh4k Personally I find them adorable. Just can’t get them to look right on me though.


    Holy crap. House has KitchenAid mixers on sale. I just bought one! Thanks for the tip, @halfwrittentale!!


    Realised I was at pub last night with people from Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft. My inner 22yo geek was freaking out. #livingthedream


    @imdominating @lotsofco Yep, been meaning to watch forever and got inspired when Max and @realtimshady liked it!


    @imdominating @lotsofco Not that I don’t trust your taste in movies… (ā€Roadhouseā€ notwithstanding.)


    @knitdra @RoseRed_Shoes Well, it had to match the kitchen, of course… šŸ™‚


    @knitdra @RoseRed_Shoes Nah. I’ve got a designer kitchen now; I’m going to suppress my wacky impulses and have it all MATCH!

    @drkknits WHOA – THAT’S HUGE. Also, I can now SMS you for free. This is a slippery slope indeed.


    @drkknits Set up FaceTime and call me on it! VIDEO CHAT OF THE FUTURE.


    @drkknits My most used: Facebook, LinkedIn, Google Hangouts, Toodledo (to do list), TripView (real time bus/train data), Flipboard…


    @drkknits Instagram, Weather AU, Consume (tells you how much data/credit you’ve used for Telstra, etc)


    @drkknits Touch the app icon and hold. They’ll all start jiggling and there will be an X to delete. You can also drag around in this view.


    @drkknits Click home button to stop jiggling/edit mode.


    @drkknits No worries. I’m at home for a few more hours today so feel free to hit me up with questions!


    @drkknits Do you have username/password for Telstra site yet? You basically give it that and it scrapes from there.


    @drkknits Mine is Telstra (Postpaid). Yours might be different if you’re 3G


    @drkknits Settings -> General -> Usage -> Mobile Usage will also keep track of how much you’ve downloaded. But you have to reset manually.


    @drkknits So I just prefer checking with Consume. Telstra are also good about sending SMS when you get close to limit now.


    @drkknits Also, set up Find My Phone at some point: http://t.co/qCqfPLMEDu. This will allow you to find it if it’s lost/stolen.


    @drkknits Ah. You might not need Consume then! I didn’t realise they had a nice mobile site nowadays.


    @drkknits Did you port your number, or get a new one?


    Just had first official FaceTime and iMessage chat with @drkknits. IT’S A WHOLE NEW WORLD, PEOPLE. SHE LIKES IT!


    @redambition Isn’t Flickr Pro going away?


    @drkknits You didn’t even Instagram it. Fail.


    @drkknits Have you tried out Siri yet? I mostly use it for “Is it going to rain?” and “What’s 350 Fahrenheit in Celsius?”


    @drkknits Just hold your home button down til it dings, then ask your question!


    @drkknits No, Siri shows a little microphone icon. Maybe some setting is different on yours. Dig around in the Settings a bit…


    @drkknits Technically you’re not supposed to go iPod -> iTunes, as it’s a way to share your music with all your friends.


    @drkknits That said: http://t.co/y3x314SnqM


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Yep. You might need to turn it on though. If you’re on iPad, you need to tell FaceTime to use your email address


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes …as your iPad doesn’t know your phone number. Same for iMessage.


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Just go into Settings -> Facetime and make sure it’s turned on and hooked up to both methods.

    Meet-up with @knitterjp… (at @MaxBrenner Chocolate Bar) http://t.co/x8ip6xj6ig


    FUUUUUU. Our power just died. Anybody else in Chippo? @mpesce?


    On the plus side, the 250 tea lights I have randomly stockpiled from IKEA are finally coming in handy.


    @mpesce The lights are still on the other side of Moorgate. Maybe it’s very localised. Definitely our whole block.


    I hope my slow cooker pea soup was done cooking. I guess I might as well eat it – it’s not gonna stay warm!


    @mpesce @DrMiaow Friend in building on Buckland reporting her place is dead too.


    @drkknits Nah. That is the one failing of Old Reader. Hoping they rectify soon. I just use web version, but it’s not great.


    @ausgrid Power is out in Chippendale! What’s going on? Any ETA?


    So just to reiterate, @the_snook is in a warm pub eating pizza with Googlers. I’m in cold dark house with two cats who will eat me.


    BEHOLD! I tweet to @ausgrid and TWO SECONDS LATER THE POWER COMES BACK ON!


    @Ausgrid It just came back! I knew invoking you via Twitter would work. šŸ™‚ Thank you…


    @iain_chalmers @mpesce @DrMiaow Mine’s back!


    It’s alarming how quickly my brain jumps from ā€œpower outageā€ to ā€œzombie apocalypseā€. I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW TO WEAVE BASKETS YET!

    Let’s get out of here. The usual suspects going to knitting? @knitterjp @smark31 @Yarna_ @aunty_toots @1funkyknitwit


    I am so tempted by the Marimekko Chuck Taylors at Hype. So, so tempted.


    @RoseRed_Shoes You would say that. You’re such an enabler!


    @RoseRed_Shoes But I have three pairs of Chucks already. I can’t justify it!


    A Grand Designs I haven’t seen before? With lesbians? YES!


    @witty_knitter They have separate bedrooms? Is this a thing?


    @witty_knitter Rodd says he suspects it’s an Older British Person thing. I kinda like it.


    @mrs_sockvictim @Yarna_ @smark31 @knitterjp Check Rav. I changed the name of the group. šŸ™‚


    Knitters: check out http://t.co/XLYGbEnxNF today. Very nice! Except @google got the start date of Australian winter wrong…


    @laimelde Yes, in the US we go by equinoxes and solstices. But not here.


    @KTunravels Nah, June 1st. But I usually get the doona out by ANZAC day. Sydney is colder than people realise (esp without central heating).


    @surrenderdotty @google Yeah, but the actual search text is ā€œFirst day of winterā€. No Australian staff would have actually approved that!


    @laimelde Yep. Australia is the only place I’ve ever been that doesn’t! I’m guessing tomorrow in N Hemis it will refer to Summer there.

    @Illdrinn My maternal grandmother is Korean, but typically I didn’t like the good growing up. Now I love it! Amuses her greatly. šŸ™‚


    @gilmae @randomknits I’m fairly certain that I’ve had $4 tickets to see the Cubs at Wrigley before. But then, they usually suck.


    @gilmae @randomknits Crap. I’d been thinking at least SCG was smaller, but no, it has more capacity than Wrigley. *sigh*
