    @drkknits Either ask your doc or beg a chemist. It’s got codeine in it so they control it pretty strictly!

    @randomknits The answer is always “4”. How many balls to make a scarf? How many squares in a ball? What size needles? “Four.” For everything

    @drkknits Who?

    @twelveeyes @randomknits Something I started saying on day 2 at the wool shop in order to preserve my sanity!

    @drkknits @smark31 Hahahahaha… She’s been here lurking since last week. 🙂

    @twelveeyes @randomknits No. Those customers are usually pretty dumb and they don’t really know what they’re asking anyway!

    @drkknits @smark31 Awww, you should let her get acclimated in her own time! I’m trying not to scare her away! 🙂

    @smark31 I was actually wondering: Has all this interest in “50 Shades of Grey” (erotica) led to increased traffic to your blog?!

    Butternut Squash Soup with Star Anise and Ginger Prawns. http://t.co/eljceAzi

    @astroboysoup Yep! Really yummy. 🙂

    @drkknits @astroboysoup Very easy to make. Recipe is here: http://t.co/zJVq7klE

    @stufromoz I had a crush on him in high school, therefore his being gay was an inevitability. 🙂

    @shanea Nice! You going to get a rack or mudguards?

    @shanea Riding with a backpack gets real old real fast though!

    @drkknits Why not? I like zippers!

    @drkknits Too late! I put icord on it, not a button band. I don’t wear button cardigans. On me it will be more of a jacket!

    @drkknits Just for that, I am going to knit fairisle dolls onto a MOTORCYCLE JACKET. 😛 Pretty buttons would be a little too twee for me.

    Paper Dolls (Jacket) blocking. Might need to stretch the yoke even more… http://t.co/0OYsdc25

    Scrubbed all the baseboards. Washed and ironed the curtains. Cleaned the windows. Bought a screen door at Bunnings. 21 days til Mom’s visit!

    @drkknits Rikodeine. The only thing that works for me.

    @merrinmez Those. Are. FANTASTIC!

    I always think I’m going to be conservative at the stylist. And then I change my mind as soon as I’m in the chair. Purple streaks? WHY NOT.

    The purple streaks didn’t actually take. I suspect my Mom telepathically sabotaged the enterprise. #stillblonde http://t.co/bEZEdv44

    RT @elizabethdanger: Please RT this if you are or know a female programmer in the US. Proving a point here. // My Mom is one!

    @stufromoz I know. My normal stylist has done it before. But she’s on vacation, and the stand-in wasn’t very good. 🙁

    Discussed with osteo the possibility of having a PRP injection for my tendonitis. Anybody had one in Australia? Get good results?

    @drkknits It’s interesting, huh? I invited you to be an “ally”.

    @shanea Once I can run again, I’ll have to go the other direction and we can high-five as we pass each other! 🙂

    @VenessaHunt We have one and we use it all the time! They’re awesome. 🙂

    Well surprise, surprise. Helicopter parent is overly defensive and hostile when confronted. I should’ve nuked the post on Day 1.

    @drkknits ??

    @drkknits Ah. I thought it might be that. Hopefully soon you will be able to focus on the loveliness of what you had, rather than be sad. 🙁

    @SydneyOsteo Thanks. Been dealing with this for 5 months now. Recommendation for PRP was from my osteo at City Clinic in CBD.

    @SydneyOsteo My GP and osteo both reluctant to give cortisone, which my research backs up. PRP sounds great, but still pretty new?

    @redambition Aus Knitters board on Rav. Entitled parent asking for help with topics for a 20yo’s essay. Most people were nice & helped.

    @kat13v Sent you a FB message. I got a sick Snook on my hands! 🙁

    I feel like Sick Snook is going to be very shortly joined by Sick Kris.

    @RoseRed_Shoes Ooh, neat! I did wonder! Did you do the scarf too?

    @RoseRed_Shoes Ha! Just checked your Rav. Nice one. 🙂

    @RoseRed_Shoes I actually “liked” it when they posted a pic on FB yesterday!

    @RoseRed_Shoes It’s got 41 likes on FB! They posted a special message about it because of all the interest. 🙂

    The thread is now dead. It is a Dead Thread.

    Missed the Wagner concert last night in favour of sleeping for 11 hours.

    @blakkat Ear plugs are your friend. I also roll Rodd onto his side like 4 times a night.

    @twelveeyes I know. Snook and I are both fighting off a cold though. We were just too wiped out. 🙁

    Attention @RoseRed_Shoes: Either you or I need to make these for next weekend. http://t.co/GoU19FDR

    We used to try to keep our web pages under 40KB. Now these stupid “parallax scrolling” sites make you download 5MB for a home page!

    @chewxy Toyota has one that’s 23+ MB. Takes ages on a desktop; won’t load on mobile at all. It’s just ridiculous.

    Zucchini bread. Co-workers: you can thank me in the morning. @ Chippendale http://t.co/VhMbYY6h

    @imdominating According to FB my Mom made 12(!) loaves yesterday, so I got inspired. 🙂

    @drkknits Talk to @kunaal84. I suppose at least his LDR is with a flight attendant, which helps.

    @drkknits Well, hello Dr. Fancy Pants! 🙂

    @kcarruthers *hand up* I did.

    Very annoyed with @threadless. Wanted to get shirts shipped to Mom so she can bring next month. But billing & delivery country must same. 🙁

    I have ordered @threadless shirts from Oz to be sent to Mom in USA before. Must be new policy. That sucks. No $$ from me, then.

    @astroboysoup @threadless Hilariously, I found a loophole. I just paid with PayPal (using my Aussie CC) and it worked just fine!

    @1funkyknitwit Super cute!

    Ooh. I have a new follower: @smark31. Is that who I think it is? 🙂

    @smark31 I knew we’d tempt you in eventually! As with anything, it’s what you make of it. Let me know if you have any questions… 🙂

    @mayorofnewtown Service from Next Byte has been pretty hit-and-miss over the years. They need competition, I think.

    RT @imdominating: Thing I learned today: Wormtongue was the voice of Chucky. Just in case you didn’t think he was creepy enough. #themor …

    @janiematts The real Apple whores spotted the DA at Broadway months ago. 😛

    I have to say, @Sitback knows how to keep staff happy. I love my NEW GIANT MONITOR! http://t.co/PIRT7Qlb

    Looking forward to tonight’s @GGDSydney event. Thanks to Atlassian for hosting!

    @astroboysoup I know… I don’t think I can. Drupal group last week, #IIBA mixer last night, then GGD… Too many social engagements! 🙂

    @FlavourCrusader The revamped Duck Inn in Chippo (formerly Duck & Swan) is great! New chef is fantastic.

    @VenessaHunt Neat! I need a bigger seat to do that; mine is too little.

    Just spotted @mikeefreedom sailing down Clarence St on his fixie!

    Pasta at #GGDSydney smells too good! I’m trying not to ruin my dinner later…

    Note to self: try out tomatoi.st for pomodoro timing!

    Very cool to meet @nabeelahali tonight, who evidently knows my buddy @henrytapia!

    @henrytapia @nabeelahali Damn! I was being Hermione up the front. Wondered if you were around.

    Started #GGDSyd feeling like Kristy Nofriends; finished talking to loads of people. Perhaps due to all the pear cider. Thanks, Atlassian!

    Confessed to @pyko tonight at #GGDSyd that I still use HTML tables for layout. She only slightly cringed.

    Fascinating preso from Deborah tonight at #GGDSyd on teaching computer skills to seniors. Very relevant to my experience with @KnitGuildNSW!

    @Yarna_ @witty_knitter Heh. Definitely wasn’t referring to you! But wasn’t being snarky; it was good to get tips on how older folks learn.

    @Yarna_ @witty_knitter Actually asked about volunteering with http://t.co/FS2TXU9A but seems they prefer teachers to be 50+. I can get that.

    @VenessaHunt Whoa – big step indeed! Congrats. 🙂

    Questions from parents about their kid’s homework are weird. I never asked my parents to help me find a paper topic. (Valedictorian, baby.)

    @mikeefreedom I was on foot last night, heading over to Atlassian for a geek girl meetup. But I’m riding again, trying to build up!

    @Opheli8 We prepaid for a year of HCF several weeks ago.

    @Opheli8 I saw a news article about it a while back. That’s where we got the idea. But HCF also sent us a letter suggesting it too.

    @Alegrya @Opheli8 This is where we got the idea: http://t.co/qwVAk3dq

    @mikeefreedom Yep. Seeing osteo now about my neverending knee issue, and he’s confident we can fix it up!

    Reason #319 I love working in the Rocks: business meetings that involve pork pies in front of the fireplace at the Lord Nelson.

    Finally got to meet the elusive @brown_note at tonight’s #IIBA event in Sydney! http://t.co/b7aArauK

    Very excited to see @YonixBA demo at #IIBA Sydney event tonight. Can’t wait to try it out…

    Nearly forgot: this is the other vintage dress I got on the weekend. I like it! http://t.co/JjjlLMX7

    @RoseRed_Shoes Yes, indeedy! Pockets! It’s very comfy. I expect it would look even better with a belt tho.

    @drkknits We found an AWESOME retro shop in Chippo with amazing clothes and furniture. Balatro Sydney. LOVE IT.

    @redambition I quit the day after Zynga bought them. Apparently millions followed suit.

    @venks79 @kunaal84 I really, really hope you forwarded that to all@. Some folks haven’t quite grasped that point. 🙂

    RT @venks79: Embrace change. Learn to let go http://t.co/WcdZP4ME // So guilt-tripping resigning employees isn’t recommended mgmt tactic? 🙂

    @venks79 I’m not seething about it on a daily basis. But when someone shows you their true colours, you remember that!

    Whoa. Sylar and Jonathan Groff are a couple? How did I not know this? AWESOME. http://t.co/I0uUoj0f

    @mrs_sockvictim Made it home no dramas! Main road is a lot shorter & faster. 🙂

    Nothing like finishing off a big spec at ten to midnight on Sunday… *yawn*

    RT @TMZ: Alex Trebek — Hospitalized After Heart Attack http://t.co/XqXs0HHa // What is “Get well soon, Alex!”?

    Donating blood! (@ Red Cross Blood Donor Centre Town Hall) http://t.co/cIV6Q4OQ

    Mmm, hot choc and raisin roast. Giving blood earns one a Free Carb Pass, I always feel.

    Woohoo! Guild Camp 2013 venue has been decided. Stay tuned…

    @mrs_sockvictim @randomknits @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes I wasn’t going to dress up, but then I found the PERFECT dress! http://t.co/3inG1fbY

    @misswired @the_snook @pixel8ted Hmm… Probably not; we’ve been recently. Happy to go if you need our cards to get in tho!

    @knitabulous Thank you! That was the pleasantest Exec meeting I have EVER attended. 🙂 cc @merrinmez @witty_knitter @ClareLouise1308

    Going to a 1970’s themed party. I LOVE THIS DRESS. http://t.co/D7tzo10w

    @mrs_sockvictim @randomknits @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes Where are you all? It’s all parents & kids here!

    What do you take to a classy 70’s party? Rosé, of course! http://t.co/JvI4daJa

    @PortugueseChook Rodd looked for that one! They didn’t have it. 🙂

    @Yarna_ @randomknits Hey! Just because a person HAPPENS to be stirring the fondue when a giant CRACK rings out…

    Have left 70’s party in search of poutine. Hopefully we can get a seat at the bar at @Hartsyard!

    @brown_note I can put you up, if you’re not allergic to cats. 🙂

    @brown_note That makes me sound like a crazy cat lady. We have 2 cats and a spare room. And I’m going to IIBA mixer Monday night.

    @brown_note Excellent. Will look for you there. Our place is in Chippendale, so daily close to Exhibition Centre.

    Contemplating a mountain of poutine. HELLZ YEAH. @ Hartsyard http://t.co/rxxNcBPQ

    @randomknits Life-changing. Poutine, oyster po’boys, and duck rillettes with foie gras. With beer. So full. Very satisfied.

    @randomknits Worth a trip sometime. They were booked out but we got seats at bar after a short wait. Have to go back for the fried chicken!

    @jannism Hot.

    @jannism I have recently become aware of my own shameful addiction to One Direction. I covet the mug.
