    @VenessaHunt Congratulations! Can’t wait to hear details. 🙂


    @toastman *blush* *giggle* Yeah, that would work on me.


    @witty_knitter You mean it sounds like my new living room! MUST. GO.

    @imdominating I do the same thing when folks visit Sydney. (HINT HINT COME SEE OPERA HOUSE HINT)


    Am I listening to @amandapalmer’s “Want it Back” over and over on repeat because I’m in a better mood? Or did it CAUSE the better mood?


    @knitterjp @drkknits @mrs_sockvictim @smark31 Awwwww!!


    @imdominating Oh good grief. The hobbit has a hobbit baby? And he thinks you care?


    @twelveeyes What’s the occasion for the outfit? Are you going to a costume party or some sort of Historical Pedant’s Ball? 🙂

    @acatinatree Yes. Did you see new hipster cafe opened on Shepherd yest? “House Specialty Coffee roasters.” Milk crates to sit on. *shudder*


    @GeorgieKnits @randomknits Confession: I started a jumper last night and didn’t swatch. But I feel like I know my tension with this wool!


    Every time this stupid Audi ad on Spotify says “infotainment” without irony, I die a little inside.


    @randomknits SHIRT DRESS? I long for a shirt dress! I say yes, it’ll be beautiful.


    @gilmae I discovered last night that Campbelltown has one of only THREE Sizzlers in all of NSW. I am tempted to visit now.


    @gilmae I’m not seeking kitsch! I am seeking a GIANT-ASS SALAD BAR. 😛


    Hacked all my homemade skirts into minis yesterday. Much better. #fluorohipster http://t.co/1LFL65K0


    @dhgarske Hey, when you’re on this side of 35, above the knee counts. 🙂


    Dude, it has a LASER??! http://t.co/nlLvaR72


    @drkknits Oh man. You just gave me a craving for a bag of Lay’s thin barbecue potato chips. *drool* I can smell the bag RIGHT NOW.


    @drkknits They have to be fresh, I will concede. Stale bbq-flavoured anything is the Worst.


    @steven_noble Yes. Whenever co-workers ask me (as a Yank) for one to put in, I just tell them that. They always go, “DUH! THAT’S AWESOME!”


    @twelveeyes But… I’m pretty sure that’s what my transgender friend took and she got all hairy and beardy?


    @twelveeyes Oh wait. Reading back through your tweets for context. Didn’t realise you were talking about the Pill.


    @twelveeyes I just saw your single tweet that it was a myth that T made women get hairy. Just pointing out that I’ve seen it happen!


    @twelveeyes But that’s a totally different situation to what your talk is about, it seems…


    Damn. Misread a news headline as “anti-legging protestors” and thought, “Where do I join that group!?”


    @toastman o_O I see what you did there.


    RT @GOPunplugged: While condoms and the pill are morally unacceptable, the rhythm method and forcible rape are reliable, effective forms …


    @thezedmiester Mine too! I remember reading Sassy in the 90’s when he took some girl to her high school prom. TOTES DREAMY.


    As for me, I’m listening to The Smiths entire back catalog. So that tells you where my head’s at today.

    “Why yes, I am warming mah feets.” http://t.co/IEXwEO8F


    @randomknits Jealous! I just washed fabric last night for blouse, skirt, and dress. Haven’t selected patterns yet tho.

    @drkknits Just blogged about two weeks of eating clean… and my first thought there was: MUST EAT ALLL THE CAAAAAKES.


    Why yes, I am writing a website specification at home on a Saturday night for a volunteer project. *sigh*

    Sydney’s Girl Geek Dinner http://t.co/Xzvdaiqs // This was so much fun. Now I’ve caught the presenting bug! #ggdsyd


    Today: Dress by Heartbreaker. Grey tights from @welovecolors. Hand knitted scarf. http://t.co/Nde5b7aB


    @drkknits Well, you guys said grey goes with everything. I was testing that.


    Off to the Insular Peninsula for a client meeting. I wonder if @randomknits is working? Probably no time for a wool fondle… 🙁


    @codepo8 They’re MOTORCYCLE boots that I wear to kick web developers in the butt. 🙂


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp Has anyone admitted to a gross pattern-reading error yet? Or is that still my domain?

    @Gin_ev_ra @bencubby The residents of Chippendale have done that for years now! Fruit, nuts, native food plants, etc. http://t.co/bt339wla


    Hahaha… Just found ex-colleague’s pic on his current job’s website. Good to know some things never change. #douchebag


    The technology is hassling me today. Cross fingers that iPhone restore fixes everything up…

    Google Maps with public transport directions friggin’ ROCKS. Searching http://t.co/HbRc2NpJ was always so painful. This is much better!


    On my way to #IIBA “User Story Development” event. Anybody else going?


    I hate coming to these work things by myself. I blame @rajsingh2505 for abandoning me all the time. 😛


    This #IIBA talk is unexpectedly depressing. I see the value of Agile. I also see all the impediments that keep us from adopting it. *sigh*


    @handmethepanda Especially when your clients are all external and they all want fixed pricing! Just don’t see how it could work for us.


    @handmethepanda So is there a middle ground? How do I avoid writing 150 page docs that clients demand for sign off but nobody reads?


    @gilmae @handmethepanda Today discovered dev wasted a week coding thing all wrong. It’s on p5 of spec. We discussed in a meeting. Gahhhh.


    @gilmae @handmethepanda How do I keep that from happening? Not sure if it’s methodology at fault, but it’s hard not to feel responsible.


    @handmethepanda @gilmae I agree. The “meeting” was detailed spec review. So I feel mostly happy chalking it up to dev sloppiness.


    @gilmae @handmethepanda I @knitterjp That’s my big takeaway. Ask for demos. Don’t trust that devs know req unless they can explain it back.


    @knitterjp @handmethepanda @gilmae Going to sign off and have dinner. Thanks for discussion! Lots to think about. 🙂


    This is the quilt that made me cry. Blog post coming soon… http://t.co/Tqvp6rts


    @gilmae Yes. I read it years ago and really liked it. I’d lend you mine but I gifted it to @eileenDCoE, I think. I should buy it again too.


    Get ready to cry, @witty_knitter. The quilt post is now up. http://t.co/kvI3RyLB (I’m sobbing myself, too.)


    @kunaal84 Congrats! Now do I get to ride an elephant in the wedding? 🙂


    Bus driver is piping classical music through speakers. I think it’s a waltz. Suddenly my morning commute feels like a funny movie montage.


    @creativemercury Oh, I’m not complaining! It’s actually quite charming.

    @randomknits @drkknits Vintage dress and black tights from @welovecolors. http://t.co/CANzVJZE


    @witty_knitter Very interesting…!


    Drupal users: what is the criteria for something being marked “New” in Find Content? No one can tell me, and I can’t find it anywhere.


    Finally finished Once Upon a Time season one. The ending felt like a letdown, but damn, I love that the girls got to kick ass with swords!


    @witty_knitter @drkknits WHOA! So sparkly! You look like you’re from the future.


    Self-made skirt from @ColettePatterns and navy tights from @welovecolors. #colouredtightsday http://t.co/QNUGO8Ud


    @ColettePatterns Unfortunately somebody told me the stripes and curves make it look like an awning, so that’s all I see now. *sigh*


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Huh. See, I got the charcoal but can’t figure out what to wear them with.

    Need to find a house/cat-sitter over Christmas. Anybody available? (cc @knitness @Ezzles @redambition)


    @SallyPompom Visiting the family: couple days in LA, lots of time in Indiana, a few days in Hawaii on the way back…


    @dancingman Oh, that would be lovely! I’ll email you the details.


    Just sent @welovecolors my first complaint email. My new pair of lavender tights got a hole on the first wearing. 🙁


    @redambition @knitness @Ezzles I think it’s been sorted… @dancingman was quick on the ball! But thank you anyway, ladies. 🙂


    @drkknits Doesn’t exist, because pictures of feet without shoes are an ABOMINATION. That’s what sock blockers are for. 🙂


    @drkknits I already saw them. I suspected there would be feet, but I braved it for you. 🙂


    Only one more week to go on lunchtime walks with @the_snook before he starts his awesome new job way far away from his missus. 🙁


    @toastman @the_snook Heh. The best news. He’s going to Google. 🙂


    @toastman Ha. @illdrinn already knew. I randomly mentioned it to her last week on Twitter. (He made me keep it quiet for a while.)


    @Illdrinn @toastman @the_snook Not til Monday week.


    @richbuggy I believe it’s a Technical Support Engineer role, basically supporting big clients & internal systems, etc. Something like that.


    @NickDeverell Ooh, where are you headed?


    @Ezzles Awesome; will let you know if things change. Just going to the US for Christmas to visit the rest of the family!

    RT @D_Nye_Griffiths: “Girlfriend Mode”, Borderlands 2, And Why Being A Dude Rocks http://t.co/wYiV8SeR // This is why I don’t play these.


    @phoebegoh I’d rather play/spend $ on games by women or at least that don’t assume I’m a clueless noob. Know any like that?


    @phoebegoh I’ve had Portal recommended to me several times as one I’d like. Just trying to avoid mashing-buttons-to-kill-people games…


    @gilmae At least you are troubleshooting your missus’s server issues without complaint! *glares at @the_snook*


    @welovecolors It’s OK Nia already emailed this morning to offer replacement. Such great service – thank you so much! Will tell everyone. 🙂


    Very happy with great customer service from @welovecolors. Replacement tights being sent! Three cheers for coloured tights!


    @drkknits I’m wearing black ones today, but I’ve still got new navy and charcoal from @welovecolors to try out. Let’s do it!


    @randomknits You look like a BALLERINA!
