    Pinking shears are super fun.

    Crafty Christmas coming up! @drkknits @knitdra @Yarna_ @knitterjp @mrs_sockvictim http://t.co/a8OtsTeJ

    On our way to @dothedip for dinner. Highly anticipated… hope it lives up to my expectations!

    Best hotdog I’ve had in 10 years in Australia. (@ The Dip (Good God)) http://t.co/BQJS1FZ2

    @DoTheDip Seriously, best hotdog this expat has had in 10 years of living in Australia. PB&J dessert was great too!

    @eileenDCoE I actually said to @the_snook that we’ll take you there next time you’re in Sydney. 🙂

    @gilmae My antibiotics were based on the assumption it was strep throat, since my first symptom was sore throat. Bronchitis came later. 🙁

    @knitterjp @drkknits @yarna_ @mrs_sockvictim @randomknits Are we wrapping these up? Or just bringing them as is?

    @mrs_sockvictim @knitterjp @drkknits @yarna_ @randomknits OK be prepared. However bad Dr K thinks her ornament is, my wrapping is WORSE.

    Okay, all frocked up. Bring on sparkly vampires and deep-seated pregnancy-related body horrors.

    Went for my first run in 2 weeks and survived! Took it very easy. Lungs are still weak, but I’m not coughing much. Fresh air was nice!

    @stkilda Nah, I just did the math. Would need to average 31.5km for the next 4 weeks. That’s too much too soon. Dammit! Oh well…

    @Soma377 I was a little disappointed it wasn’t a dachshund.

    @Soma377 😀

    Oz: if you would just get on board with Halloween, we could get rid of fancy dress Xmas parties! (Just passed gaggle of AWFUL flappers.)

    @drstip Ha! Is yours tonight? I think theirs was Gangster themed though, as I saw some dude in dodgy vests and hats too.

    @mpesce Wow. We looked at one right near there four years ago that went for like $750k.

    @jannism DUDE, he’s gonna be in the Hunger Games movies! (They’re the next Twilight. Trust me, next year Lenny Kravitz will be unavoidable.)

    @jannism Teen trilogy about future dystopia where attractive young people fight to the death on TV. And there’s a love triangle, of course.

    @jannism Basically. At least the main character is a chick and she gets to DO STUFF and BE A BADASS though, not like Bella.

    1st run in 2wks! Took it VERY easy as my lungs are still weak.

  • RunningBlog: Week 48

    This flu has really wrecked my training plans for the end of the year. I’m still coughing a lot at night, but it seems to be easing up during the day a bit. So today I went out for my first run in 2.5 weeks. I took it very easy with five minutes’ walk to warm up and then 2:1 run/walk intervals (at a slow pace). I felt pretty good! I didn’t feel any need to cough during the running portions, but on the walks I could tell how weak my lungs are. It felt good to be out in the fresh air and sunshine though. I am excited to put November behind me and kick off my training plan for the Gold Coast Marathon!

    Nov. 28: 2.81km (walking)
    Dec. 1: 2.81km (walking)
    Dec. 2: 4.06km
    Total this week: 4.06km
    Total in 2011: 974.02km (608.7mi)

    To meet my goal of running 1100km in 2011, I’d need to run 126km in the next 4 weeks. That’s 31.5km a week. I don’t think it’s gonna happen, folks.

    @drkknits @kunaal84 He’s been busy this morning, I think. 🙂

    RT @knitterjp: Farewell Grotto Capri http://t.co/OqypddCb It will be a challenge to remove that facade // NOOOO! I’m glad I got to go once.

    RT @Fake_Dispatch: BREAKING: When some one tells you that you can’t have Christmas without Christ, remind them you can’t have Thursday w …

    @drkknits @kunaal84 No, he was legitimately super busy. I imagine he’ll chime in soon. 🙂

    @SallyPompom Huh. No, didn’t know that. But I made Korean food last night, so I celebrated inadvertently. 🙂

    @gilmae I’m at that stage. Day 12 here. Antibiotics do nothing.

  • Movember is finished!

    Well, it’s the first of December, so that means that Movember is finished! The Snook managed to raise $220 in donations. The most exciting part (to me): he actually did go through with his pledge to start tweeting once he hit his target. Looks like everybody’s kicked a goal… 🙂

    He used Everyday to take a photo just about every morning throughout the month. This short animation shows them all in time lapse. I think it’s funniest if you keep your eye on his upper lip. The hair just comes shooting right out! Thanks again to everybody who donated!
