    OH FFS. Gmail finally forced me to upgrade to the new theme. I hate it hate it HATE IT. Ick.


    Half price? In my size?! Thank you, Santa Claus! #newdress @ Apple pie fashions http://t.co/A4oYnowa


    RT @henrytapia: @web_goddess Why? // Mystery meat buttons. Stupid importance labels. Avatars on emails. Too much white space.


    RT @marcooda: @web_goddess go to settings, you can revert back. // Woot! Thanks. Reverted. They can pry it from my cold dead hands. ๐Ÿ™‚


    @drkknits I’ll gift it back to you next year… ๐Ÿ™‚


    @henrytapia Some of that, I grant. What’s the harm in leaving the old version as an option for existing users?


    Waiting in massive queue at Strawberry Hills post office for parcel pickup. FML.


    On the plus side, I think it’s our package from Colette!! @randomknits @Gin_ev_ra


    Got my package. And then the clerk at @auspost Surry Hills managed to lose my drivers license in 30 seconds. Yes, really.


    @knitterjp @auspost Nope. There was a crush of 6 customers, 3 clerks, and a dog at the window. Hoping they find it later. REALLY annoying.


    Correction @auspost. It was Strawberry Hills. Too annoyed to type correctly. No, I didn’t get it back.


    @knitterjp Ooh, holiday is not cancelled? Yay!


    @bellsknits You just have to make new traditions! There’s plenty to like/enjoy about Xmas outside of kids opening gifts (tho that’s fun).


    This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it SHINE. My nephew is the coolest kid ever. http://t.co/pYmUioNk So much joy!


    The good news is, replacement license only costs $23. Still, going back to @auspost tomorrow to see if it turned up. I KNOW it’s there.


    @jezfletcher Guy at work got one. Agree, it’s huge. Must not be marketing to women. I’d need two hands to do anything with it.


    @mrs_sockvictim Run. If you go, I’ll go!


    @Gin_ev_ra @randomknits Okay, how can I get you your patterns? You around the city at all in next 2 weeks?


    Well. @auspost website says Strawberry Hills PO opens at 9am. Yet here I am at 9:30 with the place locked up tight. WTF.


    @mrs_sockvictim @sixandahalfst I’m in the middle of one right now!


    @mrs_sockvictim @sixandahalfst Wet? Sun has been shining in Chippo! Not a bit of rain. Is it raining elsewhere??

    @bellsknits You are nuts. Trashy mags are the BEST PART of the hairdresser! That’s my judging-trashy-celebrities time! ๐Ÿ™‚


    F**k yeah, Sandy Cohen. https://t.co/SGT0FKdd


    @witty_knitter Awww, thanks M-H. I’m gonna be just fine. Nearly on hols… just a few hours more! ๐Ÿ™‚


    Santa brought me a nice box of chocolates! @ MobileActive http://t.co/hqn5SuC5


    For this Yank, the wearing of silly hats at Christmas parties is still a novelty. @ Puntino Trattoria http://t.co/vmZpdVBF


    Morris & Sons knitters: we still on? Grace Bar seems closed. Does it open at 5? @knitterjp @Yarna_


    @knitterjp @Yarna_ @knitdra It’s open now and I’m here!


    @imdominating Yay! Toasty woollen socks are the best on a cold night.


    I am truly grateful for the co-workers that said they’d miss me but also wished me well. Even though I’ve still got 2weeks left. ๐Ÿ™‚


    @stufromoz Gave notice yesterday. Starting at http://t.co/xoEyTxv0 on Jan 23. Same role (BA). ๐Ÿ™‚


    Hey @mrs_sockvictim! Some festive knitters want to know if you’re turning up…


    @mrs_sockvictim Ah, we figured something had gone wrong. You were missed!

    How To Stop Second-Guessing Your Decisions http://t.co/juVtHvgf (Thanks @kunaal84!)


    @drkknits @GeorgieKnits I actually like several of those. And I LOVE the ski jumpers!!


    @drkknits @GeorgieKnits I draw the line at, like, sewn on embellishments. But intarsia? I love it! Me and Jenny Kee all the way, baby.


    Yay! @the_snook got me bubbly to celebrate the news: I’m starting a new job next month! http://t.co/f47U1l7j


    Thanks everyone! Same role (Business Analyst) at new place: http://t.co/xoEyTxv0. Lots of exciting projects and new team to work with…


    @crumpet Ha, yeah. I guilted him into it because of the money he raised for Fauxvember. He doesn’t tweet much. ๐Ÿ™‚


    @witty_knitter Bit of both, I think! Hate to leave my colleagues at old job behind, but after 3 years I need to stretch myself a bit.


    Behold my army of Wonky-Ass Gingerbread Men! @ Chippendale http://t.co/fklvMLFG


    @imdominating I have resorted to only buying presents for nieces and nephews. It helps when you don’t actually visit anybody.


    @codepo8 Dude, without that there wouldn’t have been all those sweet web-based chat rooms I hung out in in 1996!


    Ugh. Some people really know how to make you feel guilty. ๐Ÿ™

    WHERE DID THIS SUN COME FROM? I think it’s because @the_snook has been slowroasting pork belly on the BBQ at home for me all day… ๐Ÿ™‚


    @drkknits @knitterjp @the_snook This one: http://t.co/vR74zi6N. I invited @kunaal84 over to eat some with us. ๐Ÿ™‚


    @henrytapia @the_snook It’s a brave new world, man. (Took me several years of persuading.)


    @knitterjp Paprika! There’s Mac & iPhone versions too, I think, but we just use the iPad. It’s our most used app. Love it!


    @AusVintageGrrl That sucks! Hope you guys – and @redambition – feel better soon. It’s been 5 weeks for me and I’m still coughing. ๐Ÿ™

    Jamie’s 30Min Meals #35: Steak Indian-Style w/ Spinach&Paneer Salad, Naan Breads, Mango Dessert. http://t.co/Hu9voSm7 Very kooky concept.


    Best not to respond to anti-vaxxer FB trolls before I’ve had my coffee. I should know better.


    RT @kcm74: Self-explanatory, and with the caveat that I totally support the moonbase idea: http://t.co/usJ701WU


    I made you a Caramel Walnut Upside-Down Banana Cake, but my coworkers eated it all up. http://t.co/rerQdKdS


    The cake was from Smitten Kitchen: http://t.co/x3xO1cCb Very, very tasty!


    @pinkcatknits Done! ๐Ÿ™‚

    @drkknits On my way! Catching a bus from Broadway.


    @drkknits Where are you guys??


    @drkknits How can I NOT find you??


    @drkknits Oh shit! I’m downstairs! And I just ordered a chilli dog. Will eat fast then join you. ๐Ÿ™‚


    Bookshop of Doom FTW. I swear, that is the BEST place for gifts in Sydney. Found exactly what I needed for Secret Santa!


    Also, how can you not love this spoileriffic signage? HE CUT HIS ARM OFF!! http://t.co/aFJThscg


    RT @maria7scruff: โ€œ@BeattieDoug: I need to prove something to my poor wife – RT if you remember the song. ‘Puff The Magic Dragon’ as a …


    Buses backed up at Central for 10 minutes now. What’s going on, George Street?!


    @goldfishgeorge Ahhh, that would’ve been it! Finally made it into work…


    Looking to get a third quote for kitchen renovation. Anybody have a recommended builder/kitchen guy in the Inner West?

    How is it that the only cookie cutter I own is the state of Michigan? (Well, technically that’s two cutters, but STILL. Random.)


    @Yarna_ How about Lancashire cheese? Do you know what it’s meant to be like?


    British Picnic, complete w/ mackerel pรขtรฉ, sausage rolls, Eton mess, and Pimm’s Cup. Sun even came out! (cc @the_snook) http://t.co/WakA19Yl


    Might be late for knitterly lunch tomorrow, depending how long we’re at Costco… (attn @drkknits @Yarna_ @knitterjp @mrs_sockvictim)


    @drkknits Nah, but we’re out of giant jars of salsa. And slabs of pork belly. All the necessities of the holiday season…


    @drkknits That’s for Tuesday. Snook’s gonna slow smoke it on the BBQ all day. (I am a lucky girl…)


    Spudd’s Christmas party. He called me out as one of only two girls to get triple 100’s o @ The Old Fitzroy Hotel http://t.co/MMh65fKc


    Christmas party photo booth. DREAM! @ The Old Fitzroy Hotel http://t.co/nYe97ES8


    @misswired Rampant commercial excess will be the order of the day. Best to prepare yourself for it…

    Coworker: “So you’re into punctuation and all that stuff…” Yes. I’m “into” it.


    @lemon_lime @Leirith Well, she is a Kiwi. ๐Ÿ™‚ (We love you, @ngemsz!)


    @drkknits I was hoping to see a meat tray there.


    As the number of projects I work on in a given day increases, the amount of time I log decreases. So many minutes lost switching context…


    @stringy I’ve seen it used for “shaking my head.”


    All plans for the evening in tatters. Last night’s lack of sleep has caught up to me, and I’m taking to my bed. #yawn


    @drkknits While I’m sure you ivory tower academics aren’t crass enough to need public validation… CONGRATULATIONS, SMARTY PANTS! ๐Ÿ™‚


    @GeorgieKnits Me too! Isn’t it great? I was like a zombie yesterday.


    Any locals up for a trip to Costco tomorrow? If you drive, I’ll get us in…


    @misswired Ooh, sweet! It’ll likely be crazy busy. Probably best to get there right as they open at 10. Okay with you?


    @codepo8 You have inspired me to start following some German twitterers to brush up on language. Any suggestions of fun folks?


    @knitness Will let you know if it doesn’t pan out!


    Jamie recipe calls for smoked mackerel. Anybody know what I can sub locally? (I think @Yarna_ gave me suggestions but I’ve forgotten…)


    @anknelburblets @Yarna_ British picnic. I think it gets turned into a pรขtรฉ. (Ooh, fancy iPhone autocorrect with all the diacritics!)


    Doc says I have post-viral cough. (Lungs are clear, thank goodness, so I can keep running.) Gave me a steroid puffer to help repair throat.

    The Destash thread is going to kill me. Who am I, @mrs_sockvictim?! I DON’T NEED ANY MORE WOOL, LET ALONE 23 BALLS OF IT.


    @dhgarske BTW – In case @HiltonOnline doesn’t sort you out, I sent your tweet to a friend who is high up at Syd Hilton. He’s looking into it


    @mrs_sockvictim I messaged her to see if she’d give me a discount for taking the lot. ๐Ÿ™‚


    Ran out of Rikodeine yest, thought “That’s fine! I’m all better!” Now it’s 1:30am and I’m awake, coughing. This sucks.


    @trevoryoung @MariSmith That’s a weird article title. Since when is “women” an adjective? Had to read it twice to parse.


    RT @KnittingRyanG: HEY GIRL. SEND A PICTURE OF YOUR CAT IN THAT SWEATER YOU KNIT SO I CAN HAVE IT ON MY PHONE.


    @SallyPompom I verified to Margot that I got it…


    I need some help with translating a German email. Anybody more fluent than my very basic level? (@codepo8 – you around?)


    @codepo8 Sweet. Emailed you… Thanks!

    Anybody know a good place in Sydney to find novelty USB drives? Need one to give as a gift…


    Yowza. Worked my butt off today. No time for the gym either, so I’m crankypants. Wine may be in order.


    @squozen Yes. I have been IN THE BAND for a graduation ceremony. Imagine playing Pomp & Circumstance on endless repeat on the trumpet…


    @dhgarske I know someone there. Will send him a link.
