    Stress is getting to me. I really need a massage. Perhaps I should’ve accepted the offer from that weird lady at knitting last night…


    Snook suggested mussels & beer at Belgian Bier Cafe, and I could’ve wept with joy. Just what I need after stressful week… On my way now!


    @venks79 Unfortunately it ain’t over yet! Sucks when your hobbies become 2nd jobs and kill your weekends.


    Upstairs at the Belgian Bier Cafe. Mussels and beer have been consumed. http://yfrog.com/0a5o3j


    Finally finished my presentation for Knitters’ Guild tomorrow… at 1am. Yikes. My contacts are probably glued to my eyeballs.

    @sharre DUDE! I almost wore mine today but switched to black at the last minute. But I had the same impulse.


    @SSSYD Um… I DON’T DRIVE. Since when does that benefit “all” Sydneysiders?


    The @SSSYD secret is revealed: using Twitter to track parking inspectors. I don’t drive & people who park illegally annoy me. Unfollow!


    Awesome link of the day: http://bit.ly/WjKSD – an explanation of why Jughead’s head looks like a crown. This is what the Internet is for.


    I’ve got use cases coming out of my ears.


    I am suddenly very conscious of my involuntary habit of dancing at my desk while listening to music.


    I defy any one of you to listen to “Islands in the Stream” without dancing. IT’S KENNY AND DOLLY, DAMMIT!


    @damana Asking for a friend: Would bringing a baby to GGD be a problem? I told her I didn’t see any kids last time…


    I want to head to Stitch and Bitch but I’m slowly being strangled by the Spec that Ate East Sydney.


    @SSSYD Mostly it was the promise that this would help all Sydneysiders, when really it only helps ones who A) drive and B) illegally park.


    Good enough for now. I’m going to knitting.


    @redambition That sucks. *hugs* Only one more day til the weekend… You can make itl.


    @Steffi_83 Ha! From Spudds last night? How was it??


    @Steffi_83 Sure! Mondays are better because they give me more time to recover, but I can do Tue in a pinch…


    @Steffi_83 Sure thing… I’ll be there!


    Just completed a 5.39 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Ygwpg #runkeeper


    My superpower: Ability to peg a small black cat w/ balled up pair of socks from across the room IN THE DARK WITHOUT MY GLASSES ON. Fear me!


    I ran for the first time in a week today, 5k at an easy pace. I feel fantastic! I’m optimistic about a good finish in the 8k race on Sunday.

    @sharre Yay! That’s one more interesting thing to look at in the cases next year, then. 🙂


    Got reply from STA Buses APOLOGISING for behaviour of 461 & 480 drivers @ Broadway. The one I bitched about “will be spoken to.” GOW FTW!


    @steven_noble Oh, I can post it if you want. I just got fed up with them stopping 1/2way up the block so people can’t get on in the AM.


    @sharre I have been entertaining the idea of knitting a vampire doll and sprinkling glitter on its face for some time. Hm. Possibilities…


    Everybody wants to hear the bus story, so here it is: http://bit.ly/1anufg. @steven_noble, feel free to crosspost to LIC if you want.


    It’s not nearly as scandalous as you might have guessed.


    @twelveeyes I had to google that. I’m only a new Top Gear watcher, so I don’t know all the Stig lore!


    Currently drinking my first Mountain Dew in… god… YEARS. My taste buds are saying “no” but my brain is saying OHHHH YEAHHHHHH.


    @ScottRhodie Guru?


    @Timmay83 You should’ve run down by the domain. You would’ve seen me and @venks79 trying to kick footballs and failing miserably. 🙂


    When I listen to James, suddenly I’m a 20-year-old uni student in London all over again…


    @Timmay83 It was our class with Spudds. On nice days we go to have a kickaround in the field by the Art Gallery. But we should practice!


    @twelveeyes Ahhh, we recorded that one but haven’t watched it yet! I’ll watch with an eye towards a possible knit creation. 🙂


    I can confirm that donkey basketball (http://bit.ly/11L74S) was big-time entertainment growing up in Indiana. Probably still is.

    @Roceal Most likely, but odd considering I hadn’t consumed any Transformers or Heroes recently. I blame the Snook’s cajun-spiced pork chops.


    @imdominating Nice one! I love the writer’s attempt to describe chicken-and-noodles.


    RT @imdominating: My area of Indiana made the NYTimes! http://tinyurl.com/dczm9t I like the author’s attempt to describe chicken-n-noodles.


    RT @kellymcmahon: Wow, this says it all: http://tinyurl.com/ddzdpt <- The anti-vaccination people make my head explode.


    @SSSYD Not #blackout alerts? Twitter already handles that pretty well…


    @redambition The TV show? I can’t watch it. I am super annoyed by the realisation that there are only, like, 20 people TOTAL on Aussie TV.


    Stupid butchers making me feel all self-conscious and foreign and crap… http://tinyurl.com/dekhc3


    @SSSYD Cane toads. Early warning system for the menace from the north?


    @kdelarue Have been following along with your tweets and hoping for the best. My thoughts go out to you and your family…


    Next Geek Girl Dinner Sydney meeting is at… Microsoft. Dare I visit the Borg? Will this iGirl burst into flame? http://bit.ly/174sMJ

    @shanea Wait, what? You need to include me on those! Or at least send summary details. 🙂


    Man, what is UP with all the porn follows today? Are you guys blocking these people? So far I’m just ignoring but it’s starting to annoy me.


    @wookie_man I haven’t bothered blocking anybody yet, but I might start.


    Going to punch some stuff. W00t.


    Haven’t yet managed to repeat feat of 101m in 20s on rower. Very frustrating. Anybody got secret rowing machine tips?


    Dreamed the Transformers caught me & sent me to Fat Camp. I was rescued by Matt Parkman and the Heroes. WTF?


    Why SMS uses only 160 characters: http://bit.ly/W5WO1. See, @Opheli8 ! It isn’t just to annoy us…

    Have suddenly found myself in midst of Communist worker parade/protest on George St. There’s an awful lot of flair visible for Communists.


    @SupFarn Hahaha… We’ll get there if I have to frog-march him all the way. Say, you guys up for some Guitar Hero?? 🙂


    Stuck in traffic on King St. Girl next to me is eating an ORANGE ON THE BUS. Ugh. If she starts trimming her nails, I’m officially in hell.


    Full as a tick. Many thanks to Eva & #SupFarn for inviting us over for leftovers. Mud crab, marinara, ice cream, profiteroles: Goodbye diet!


    Happy Star Wars Day, Twitter. May the 4th be with you. (via @andrewsayer)

    CRAP. Fell asleep on the couch at 4:30, and only woke up when our 6pm dinner invitation host SMSed to see where we were. 🙁


    The heavens have opened. Thunder CRASH! Lighting FLASH!


    Nothing like waking up to a “ZOMG URGENT” email demanding a change to the Guild website from someone who ISN’T THE BOSS OF ME. Grrrrrr.


    @witty_knitter Oh, I sent a scathing reply before I’d had my coffee. Will forward to you.


    Heading into city to be substitute sock knitting teacher at M&S.

    6pm. I have 20 minutes to think of something to make for dinner. Internet, what say you?


    For the record, that is chocolate all over my T-shirt. Not that that makes it any less embarrassing.


    @misswired Well, I’m a migrant. What’s the issue?


    Lying in wait. Snookums doesn’t yet realize that I’ve put an extra quilt on the bed (because I’M FREEZING).


    @runkeeper Good work! I really need to delete points tho. My worst one has ~ 20 pts way, way off course. Dragging each one would take ages!


    So what’s it like when you have swine flu? “…His main problem is boredom.” ZOMG, FIND A MASK. http://bit.ly/8CKTV


    @runkeeper Sounds good! Keep up the great work…

    Ferris Bueller as Fight Club: http://tinyurl.com/dxtc7u BRILLIANT.


    @twelveeyes No no no no no. Not a word. Not to be uttered. Makes my skin crawl. I’m pretty sure it was invented by marketroids.


    Just downloaded the Business Analyst Body of Knowledge (BABOK) v. 2.0. I am too excited about something so nerdy.


    @randomknits In Australia? Has the Snuggie finally arrived on our shores? (I still like the DOONA SUIT myself.)


    RT @KnittyLynn: Fake indie alert, Urban Threads ripping off Jenny Hart AKA Sublime Stitching: http://tiny.cc/fakeindie


    Party cat: http://nedroid.com/tag/party-cat/ Thanks to @marmotmaster for the link!


    @sharre We should form the Anti-Tights Liberation Front. I’M RIGHT THERE WITH YA.


    @knitness I believe the appropriate response is “Drink til they’re cute.”


    Pub. Pub pub pub pub pub.


    @venks79 Awww, I’m already home!


    @acatinatree American comma? It’s the OXFORD comma, and I am 100% in support. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.


    ARGH. Spent whole ride to work sending furious complaint email to Sydney Buses about drivers on 461 & 480 routes. I am officially a crank.

    It takes a special kind of chutzpah to turn up 45 minutes late to a project management workshop. (No, not me.)


    So far this PM course is really good. Lots of practical info. Just spent lunch quizzing instructor on approaches for annoying work issue.


    Just got followed by @motherabigail ! Please tell me Stu Redmond’s on here. I’d head to Hemingford Home for him. (Beware the Walkin Dude.)


    PM workshop going great, but warm room + white noise + post-lunch = yanking hairs out of my arm to stay awake. A coffee is needed.


    @Alex_Manchester My cousin @imdominating is completely obsessed. She saw the movie like 14 times & met Edward. Oh, and she’s an adult woman.


    In case you’re wondering if people actually still read Dilbert, the ones who put together I.T. training course materials do.


    @Alex_Manchester I’m sure she’ll correct me, probably upwards. I read 3.5 of the books but fully admit they are made of Suck.


    I’m tempted to go to Chinatown and look for the pot of gold. http://twitpic.com/47b3l


    @brockleyboyo No way. Just picking up a few skills to add to the BA repertoire… 🙂


    @jose9 No worries. I didn’t hang around either. I had a pressing appointment with my couch and a loaf of sourdough. 🙂


    @Ezzles I always think the same thing. And then I never do. 🙁


    @mrs_sockvictim Haha! Petey still shows no interest in TP. He just thinks anything on a flat surface is a cat toy that belongs on the floor.


    @imdominating YOU TYPED MY DAMN USERNAME WRONG AGAIN, COUSIN! (Didn’t see the reply til now.) @Alex_Manchester – More than 14. Told ya!


    @brockleyboyo Just winging it at the moment. We’re a small company. PM and I are making it up as we go, basically.


    Just completed a 4.34 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/FPOZS #runkeeper


    Somehow the tweets from @VegasWalkinDude have gone from funny and meta to vaguely scary and meta. I have an overactive imagination.


    Of course, the day I finally make it to the bus stop at a decent hour is the day everybody in Sydney forgets how to drive in the rain.
