    New running shoes are here. Penguin shoes! http://t.co/1eQIBomb

    @witty_knitter Nah. I tried minimalist 2 years ago and hurt my foot. Podiatrist recommended these. They’re not too cushiony though.

    @gusseting Nah, minimalist gave me an arch injury I’m still recovering from. Podiatrist wants me in orthotics for now, not Vibrams.

    @janiematts Hahaha, welcome to the sisterhood! 🙂

    Frocktober #8. Denim skirt and clogs. http://t.co/9cgedvSS

    @witty_knitter It took mine a while. I think it was everybody in the world trying to do it all at once.

    RT @VenessaHunt: Check it out!! We (@mobileembrace) signed network Ten!!! http://t.co/gd8Piq78

    @imdominating Hm. I shall require more evidence of Hotness. Because my initial old-lady response was: “GET A HAIRCUT, YOU SLACKER.”

    @blakkat I can’t believe you guys are going! Best of luck at your next job. 🙂

    @janiematts So what did you get? We need photos of the sexy gadgets…

    @drkknits Love the alfoil!

    RT @zoescaman: Up the career ladder, lipstick in hand! Makeup Makes Women Appear More Competent: Study: http://t.co/1zafl3qu // Well, SHIT.

    @that_alison That was from a dress-up party. 🙁

    @Kat13v @witty_knitter The new Notifications thing is pretty sweet. Twitter is baked in. Free iMessages between iPhones (no SMS)!

    @lifeasdaddy That is a very, very good point.

    Accidentally kicked the Snook in the kitchen. Him in boots, me in bare feet. I think I broke my pinky toe! It hurrrrrrts.

    @drkknits Well, he is my man slave. I should’ve specified that he should be barefoot as well though, I guess.

    @foa_peter It’s just red and painful right now. Might be a bit swollen? I guess some ice would be a good idea…

    @foa_peter Inasmuch as I could ever wiggle my pinky toe. 🙂 Poor little piggy!

    Okay! I think that was an official run-in with a foot fetishist. And here I thought it was just a Twitter fan concerned about my poor toe…

    @laimelde Guy’s twitter stream was full of concerned messages sent to people about their feet. It was definitely a little weird.

    @drkknits Phwoar, tiger! Looks great!

    @Justacogitating I have been getting mine from welovecolors.com. Bonus points for actually being tall enough for me too!

    Jamie’s 30Min Meals #33: Stuffed Cypriot Chicken, Asparagus & Tomatoes, Cabbage Salad, St. Clement’s Drink, Affogato. http://t.co/YuqsbKUU

    Just planned training schedule for Gold Coast Marathon. I start December 1. WHAT?!

    @knitterjp July 1st. So a good 30 weeks or so to build up to it…

    @knitterjp Ha. You mean Tanya? I like having her office nearby! 🙂

    @steven_noble That was… interesting. I knew about phone phreaking, but had never heard of Joybubbles.

    @knitterjp So far it’s only a Google doc. Actually carrying it out is a whole ‘nother story!

    I would take people who don’t like the PM more seriously if they didn’t use such loaded, misogynistic terms to describe her.

    @richbuggy Hey, that’s an actual political argument! I can respect that (but not agree with it). It’s the “witch” shit I object to.

    Doing unpopular things is WHY we have representative democracy. You can’t trust big decisions to the mob, who always act from self-interest.

    @Soma377 You joke, but stuff is stupid here today. Govt passed carbon tax (YAY!), and the conservatives are frothing at the fucking mouth.

    @Soma377 “Self-appointed” =/= “representative democracy.” I get that folks are angry, but in US and AU, leaders are still elected.

    @Soma377 I’m ranting against the idea that we should trust the mob to grant human rights & protect the earth against its own interests.

    @Soma377 You seem to be having some other argument, which is fine and all, but not the particular nit I’m picking just now…

    WOOT! Thanks to @carbolicious for Kindle-lending me the next Hunger Games book. #bravenewworld

    SONOFA. Stupid Amazon doesn’t allow my sister to share a book with me because I’m in Australia. Well, that sucks.

    @gilmae Giving that a try. I think they must be doing an IP address lookup though.

    @gusseting How do I do that? Am I changing an Amazon billing or delivery address?

    @gusseting Ahh, I found it. But will I then lose books associated to AUS account?

    @gusseting @gilmae Got it. Thanks. 🙂

    @toastman I think I found a costume for you. http://t.co/ujJoDHdx

    Frocktober #8. Retro dress from Heartbreaker. http://t.co/RYVTGUZb

    RT @stringy: Hmm me too. Beyond Blue needs a new leader. RT @RuthEllison: Reconsidering my support for Movember after reading this: http …

    Ugh. It appears I have to upgrade half the apps on my MacBook before I can get iOS5. Installing… Installing…

    @nolim1t I hadn’t run Software Update in a loooong time. And the new iTunes is required before you can get iOS 5. (Finally downloading now!)

    @Justacogitating You are kidding. Suddenly I am feeling a lot less sympathetic to all those lawyers with $100K in loans and no job…

    @nolim1t Snow Leopard

    And I appear to have bricked my frickin’ iPhone. iTunes not recognizing it now.

    @nolim1t No wait. 10.7.2. That’s Lion.

    @squozen Ahhh, that got it to recognize. Thanks. Now to see if it will restore.

    Cautiously optimistic that iPhone is now restoring…

    @Justacogitating Oh phew.

    Phew! iPhone successfully upgraded, now restoring settings from backup. That was a long hour.

    @squozen Must’ve been. First try at the office worked perfectly.

    Negative: My temperature is up a little bit from this morning. Positive: I’ve read 50% of the first Hunger Games book, and it’s AWESOME.

    @drkknits Uh oh. Maybe we caught the same bug on Saturday? I spent the whole day reading the first Hunger Games book. Heading to bed now…

    RT @that_alison: Carbon price bills have passed, sky still seems to be in the up position.

    @mrs_sockvictim Wow, it opens next month! Can’t wait to check it out. 🙂

    @crumpet I graduated with nearly $50K in debt from a US college. And that was with lots of scholarships. I was “lucky.”

    RT @ScottRhodie: Got an iPhone/iPad? When typing in a web address if you hold down the .com button it will bring up a list of other opti …

    @AusVintageGrrl Ooh, thanks. I’ve mostly given up on cupcakes though. They just haven’t gotten eaten when I’ve tried at previous parties! 🙁

    @imdominating I’ve seen a few like that. I like the idea, except for my firm conviction that I’d be zombie fodder within 10 min. #slowpoke

    @traveller0112 Haha, thanks. Amazing what a little lippie and some Bollywood jewelry can do! 🙂

    At work late, left my wallet, couldn’t get back in office, couldn’t get to our floor, starving- ARGH! Thanks to @venks79 for rescuing me…

    Frocktober #6. Another Gap skirt, fuchsia tights. http://t.co/rJe34tFk

    @knitabulous Super jealous!

    Hipster specs with a knitted finish. I am not kidding. Wankiest thing ever. http://t.co/ruYVE8tS

    @zephyrama Darling, we’ve had people with pet goats in Chippo for years. Really. It’s practically passé now! http://t.co/Bcxektum

    @MoneyWell Had a weird issue where iPhone app wouldn’t accept Dropbox password when pasted, but did when I typed exact same password. Weird.

    Sore throat, fever, headache. Going back to bed…

    Have spent ENTIRE day in Westeros – I’m cross-eyed now – but it’s finally done and I can reclaim my life. Phew. Now for Hunger Games?

    Halloween costumes are 85% done. Just need to sew a couple remaining components. RSVPs are trickling in…

    @stufromoz I was talking about the books. I’m spoiled now for the show for YEARS!

    Let’s play Words With Friends. My username is ‘web-goddess’. http://t.co/tRw8MZRV #GamesWithFriends

    @Alegrya Check out welovecolors.com. That’s where I’ve been ordering my funky tights from. 🙂

    @Alegrya They do indeed! I got several pairs of these: http://t.co/SvHVQ2Bl. First tights in my life that are actually long enough!

    Saw on Sat. that Harris Farm have Halloween pumpkins out. $5/kg, so smallest was $20. Ouch. I’ll wait a little longer. http://t.co/wnus8QV3

    Woo! Snook’s Halloween costume 90% sorted. This has been a busy day!

    Frocktober #5: Gap skirt, beer, grotty student pub. “Chippo hipster” indeed. @ Abercrombie Hotel http://t.co/V9B33cZk

    Sweet antique sewing machine in cabinet at Glebe Salvos! http://t.co/mLQSA92e http://t.co/vDHN3H0H http://t.co/M7i7Dc8r

    @SMinney No, it’s a treadle and I am lazy. 🙂

    @zephyrama Insane good or insane bad? I have no idea myself. I just thought it was neat! Not planning to buy it. 🙂

    @zephyrama Yowza! Good to know, thanks. 🙂

    @Illdrinn Nice. I once met lady at knit shop who was descendant of Babbage & I freaked out. Not many people recognise the name, she said.

    @randomknits That is the greatest video ever. I am now totally crying. I WANT TO BE HER. What great parents!

    @randomknits Apparently there is a whole category of YouTube videos of parents surprising their kids with Disneyland. I am now addicted.

    RT @drkknits: just in case you like your viking vampires in a suit. i prefer them naked myself http://t.co/36a8sp1J

    Frocktober day 4: linen skirt and leather boots. http://t.co/8BVR5hE1

    @alyshajane I got them in London ten years ago. They’re KOOKAI, but that’s the only identifying mark on them! Good boots though.

    W00t! Went to the Costume Shop after work and sorted out mine. Mine is daunting but also AWESOME. And @kunaal84 got an idea too!

    @drkknits I told @kunaal84 he should check with you and be Lannisters or something. But he came up with somebody better. 🙂

    @drkknits @kunaal84 Well… He didn’t. Mine is another story. But I still love it. 🙂

    @drkknits @kunaal84 No comment!

    Heading to Newtown with Snook for Sydney #parkrun 5K! Looking forward to it.

    @drkknits @knitterjp @mrs_sockvictim I’m just home from run now. Need to shower! Will catch you at meeting.

    Just posted a 5 km run – Sydney Park Run and my WWFoR 5K race! http://t.co/gnn9zkr7 #RunKeeper #WWFoR2011

    @toastman @illdrinn Kenji on Serious Eats once reverse engineered them. It’s not the tallow anymore; it’s a many step process.

    Note to self: Halloween Pavlova. THINK ABOUT IT.

    @tunaranch Intriguing ideas…. Hmm… Thinking…

    @randomknits AWESOME. Make an evening gown and be Cate for Halloween!!! 🙂

    @randomknits I generally mention it on my CV anyway, just so it doesn’t come up later and get me in trouble. Best they know right away.

    At the hairdresser, perusing the Manic Panic. Let’s get funky.

    @BendalongMorgan More like blonde with some purple bits…

    Skipped the full-on Ramona Flowers in favour of Jem & the Holograms. http://t.co/2ggV7bpH

    @witty_knitter I can’t wait to see how it looks against my crazy tights!! (Speaking of which, who’s up for another order? @knitterjp?)

    @drkknits Thanks! Kept it minimal for now, with option to increase whenever. 🙂

    @drkknits Vikings and good porn… They got that part right!

    Frocktober day 3: “Punk rock alien schoolgirl.” http://t.co/myh69lI0

    RT @TheOnion: Study Finds Working At Work Improves Productivity http://t.co/xKUrRqsD #OnionWorkplace

    @knitterjp Pretty! I think you, me, and @witty_knitter are really driving this trend now. 🙂

    @knitterjp Nah, only found out about it on the wkd. I did donate money though! Great cause. Just figured I’d see how long I could do it. 🙂

    Supposed to be in training session in 5 minutes, and George Street is just jammed with buses as far as the eye can see. #late (cc @kunaal84)

    I’d be voting for Obama anyway, but really, this is just the icing on the cake. http://t.co/qpQIQfgV

    @randomknits @knitabulous Haha, you can just say KRIS AND RODD, it’s cool, we accept it. (And I love the stove!)

    Frocktober day 1: Black wrap dress, orange tights. http://t.co/TrIMtS4t

    @knitabulous 2nd in our house. We put tea towels on top of the fridge. Because we’re giants.

    Frocktober day 2: denim skirt, clogs. http://t.co/Bsdz2KAr

    @misswired Did he have a ‘tache? Because I’d swoon.
