    Guess what we’ve been doing. http://t.co/apUqwJSE


    That’s better. http://t.co/kCIu0Sei


    Excellent. The @nomnompaleo iPad app is in the Australian App Store, and I’m downloading now! Can’t wait to start playing with it…

    IKEA exhaustion. They were sold out of our chairs, but we got everything else. Every brat in Sydney was there, if you wondered.


    @stufromoz They didn’t open til 1 on account of the holiday. Prime brat time.


    @stufromoz Probably would’ve been smarter. Hindsight.


    My next sewing project is percolating! Fabric washed. Pattern traced and cut out. Invisible zipper foot on order. 🙂

    @blakkat I hate Theon more. (You read the books? I don’t want to spoil anything…)


    @drkknits Very nice! I knew you’d like those. They’re not too precious.

    Anybody know if @TessutiFabric in Surry Hills is open at all tomorrow?


    @TessutiFabric Damn – when the urge to sew strikes, it’s immediate! 🙂 Oh well, online it is! Thanks for the reply.


    @witty_knitter @drkknits I saw that this morning! Pretty shocking. 🙁 cc @mrs_sockvictim


    @randomknits What do you reckon about the Tova dress in this? http://t.co/FeSsWS50 Suitable?


    Me: “Did your head asplode?” @the_snook: “Nah. Witch woman gives birth to demon baby? I’ve read Clive Barker.”


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp I did Cranfords! Plain on one side. Do them in an interesting wool and they’re not too fussy.


    @drkknits Woo! Can’t wait.

    @AusVintageGrrl @knitabulous Thanks, I’ve seen those linked on some running blogs. Too bad I’m not much of a runner these days!


    Three workmen jammed into the kitchen. Chaos.


    @imdominating That show is starting here soon. Should I watch?


    @RoseRed_Shoes None of these guys would be in that movie. Trust me.


    @RoseRed_Shoes @zephyrama Count me in as surprised as well.


    Benchtop man says the 2 week estimate from Harvey Norman was wildly optimistic. SONOFA–


    .@dailylifeau has an incredibly stupid article about #paleo today: http://t.co/9qHepWJo. It appears @StephieAWood1 didn’t do much research.


    @knitterjp Oh, just that it’s going to take longer than that. No set date. Something vague about the public holiday making things tricky.


    Two weeks. Write it down. That’s officially how long it took me to be fully OVER this whole renovation thing. Never again, I swear. #fedup


    RT @bazarazzi: Final tally on the House of Reps #marriageequality survey: 276,437 total, 64.0% support @AdamBandt’s bill, 36.0% oppose.


    @witty_knitter Even if it hadn’t been delayed, I’m still over it. I can’t deal with chaos and dust and being out of control. I’m stressed.


    And the final insult on my shit of a day? Google have finally forced the new GMail theme upon me and taken away the option to switch back.


    @creativemercury I’ve had my own domain name for a decade. It’s not a technical limitation. Just annoyed.


    RT @venks79: Back from holidays and raring to find my next big challenge! // You should hired Venks to be your CTO. Trust me!


    Silver lining to today’s clouds: got confirmation that one of my best friends is joining the team at @sitback in a few weeks!

    RT @Y7News: Only 4% of Aus women view having a baby as a top priority, below family, friends and relationships. http://t.co/lflIn3WP // Yup


    Just made guacamole stuffed cherry tomatoes for knitters party today. 🙂 #paleo #virtuous


    @drkknits HOLY CRAP. (I’m just hemming my dress right now, so I’ll probably be a little late…)


    I finished my dress! Very, very pleased with it. http://t.co/MHIxWs0l


    @Yarna_ The neverending scarf? Hooray! It looks beautiful.


    @drkknits Heya – did some of this Pear Tree fall out of the bag? I’ve only got 7 skeins…


    @drkknits I think this is enough to do what I want. I was just confused because your label said 9!


    @drkknits Excellent. Sure, would be good for safety just to make sure I’ve got enough!


    @drkknits I’m thinking… Catriona. It’s been on my list for ages. http://t.co/pK1KECAr


    @drkknits And for the Mad Tosh, I’m thinking Kernel… possibly even WITH BEADS. WTF. WHO AM I?! http://t.co/AgC5GePZ


    @mrs_sockvictim @drkknits But as I said to Rodd just now – NO TRIANGLE SHAWLETTES, AS GOD IS MY WITNESS.


    @drkknits Freezer. Save for later. Be strong!


    @carriekalia Thanks! Actually still a little big as a sundress, but good if I want to wear a shirt under it, I think.
