@jasony Stainless steel! They measure it up on Monday, and then it takes a week since they have to custom build/weld it to fit.

---

Why am I the only person who EVER reads the documentation?

---

RT @drkknits: @web_goddess cough *hermione* cough // I suspect that’s it, frankly.

---

@quietdiscourse The sad thing is I’m not even talking about my docs, but instead a fairly detailed brief provided by the client!

---

@henrytapia When you say it like that, it’s obviously less of a superpower and more of a curse.

---

Call from builder. He’s ready to start install NOW, a day early! What universe is this?! Rushing home…

---

@drkknits @knitdra Pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbt.

---

It’s happening!! http://t.co/M4QOS5Db

---

I’ve been putting more kitchen pics into an album on Facebook, by the way. So check there if you’re curious! I’ll blog them when it’s done.

---

@mrs_sockvictim @drkknits @knitdra I am never, ever gonna live that down, am I?

---

@that_alison @knitterjp @dancingman Thanks! I’m really happy that it’s living up to the picture in my head. BUT SO MUCH CLEANING NEEDED.

---

Macbook backlight has died… one month after AppleCare expired. Sonofabitch.

---

@henrytapia Yeah. Genius Bar only has appointments a week out from now. Will check in the morning and cross fingers for a walk-in.

---

@myindodotcom Awww, thanks. Be warned – they stop dead after ep 10! Life got in the way. 🙂

---

Installed the new Appstore Tweetdeck to my work machine, and I HATE IT. More clicks to ban spammers, can’t read conversations, stupid UI.

---

@henrytapia I used to use the standalone version before Twitter bought them. The new version you have to get from the Appstore. It’s blue.

---

@henrytapia Never used web or Chrome app. But on old one, you click “in reply to” and see the whole conversation. Can’t seem to do that now.

---

W00t! Office Manager is setting up a brand new MacBook Pro for me. This is a good day.

---

@creativemercury Heh, I wish. 🙂

---

In terms of snacks, bananas are as bad for you as cookies! Thus spake Sydney Uni, of all things! 🙂 http://t.co/CG90ZKwm (cc @drkknits)

---

@stufromoz @drkknits The infographic admits bananas have other benefits. But in terms of satiety, they’re equivalent!

---

@witty_knitter @drkknits Rodd sent me the link. I told him I tweeted it and said, “Incoming tweet from M-H in 3… 2…. 1…” #troll 🙂

---

@mudsurfer I didn’t actually eat one. But the Abercrombie Hotel had them. They had lots of stoner food.

---

@redambition Say Hi to Dr. Chin for me! 🙂

---

I put in a zipper!! 4 buttons and a hem and my dress is DONE. http://t.co/QKvt167u

---

@zephyrama Thanks! It’s the Colette Parfait. Fabric is just some cheap poplin from Lincraft! I mostly meant this one for practice. 🙂

---

@witty_knitter That’s ’cause I mostly cropped out my thick woollen socks. Very glamorous indeed. 🙂

---

@zephyrama Their patterns have a reputation for being busty. I had to resize a bit under the arms, and cups still aren’t full. Close enough!

---

@zephyrama Digital is coming soon, they said in last newsletter! I cut a 16 to fit waist but really needed a 14 in boobs.

---

Whoa – kitchen delivery guys are here NOW! The early-ness is welcome but unexpected.

---

The red kitchen is finally here! The delivery guys are bring in many, many pieces. They like the red. 🙂 http://t.co/tmNGbjb4

---

@laimelde They said themselves that “everybody else just gets white.” 🙂

---

Update from @the_snook: Tiles are nearly all down! http://t.co/tXAMdexg

---

@dancingman That’s what @the_snook’s research indicated as well. Sounds like he’s leaning towards grey.

---

@gizo Yep. http://t.co/kfS8bYPh Haven’t tried it though. Use ours to just make plain fizzy water, which I love.

---

@crumpet @gizo Well, technically. I’ve heard dark rumours about people using it to carbonate milk, etc though… which doesn’t work well.

---

@crumpet @gizo Huh, it’s just opposite the QVB. Sure, will poke my head in next time I’m there!

---

@drkknits Nice! We had purple carrots last week. They will stain your fingers a little bit if you hold and peel them, I found. 🙂

---

Even my new cheery gumboots are no match for waiting for the bus in cold rain at night after a 10 hour day. #sad

---

We have a floor with grey grout. I do love it. http://t.co/sPVxaLCm http://t.co/EwmlD7de

---

My skirt now has pockets with actual buttonholes! First time I ever used auto buttonhole foot on machine. Magic! http://t.co/ZvKDiaXP

---

RT @the_snook: He likes it because it matches his tux http://t.co/JGRdMzqa // Kitty camouflage!

---

I officially like Show Margaery way better than Book Margaery. May or may not have something to do w/ idea of Renly-Loras threesome. #genius

---

@randomknits I had some difficulty due to thickness of pocket, so one is a little messy. Do you put nail polish on them? I read that once.

---

@supercres Yeah, I already loved the Grandma! Glad now her granddaughter is less boring.

---

Holy crap, fire at the Abercrombie last night?? No more deep-fried Golden Gaytimes for a while, it seems.

---

Me: “Mob-related drive-bys and arson attacks? When did Sydney become Gotham City?” @the_snook: “Since they cleaned up Melbourne.”

---

DIY cat barriers. And a fan bungee-corded to a chair. I am my father’s daughter. http://t.co/2DzUF6nM http://t.co/pi6tT2Gm

---

@drkknits Hahaha… Do I have the context right? Are you considering dog names? AMY FARRAH FOWLER WOULD BE AWESOME.

---

Got new headphones as my old ones (bequeathed by @chrisgander) were falling apart. These are “for DJs”. I fe http://t.co/ytjr5Uu0

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits And I would film it and put it on YouTube and she’d see it and THEN WE’D GET TO MEET HER.

---

@drkknits How about Sookie? 🙂

---

@chrisgander I looked on eBay. It was pretty much either A) complete shit, or B) $250 Dr. Dre headphones. I went for the $25 Sony.

---

I looked for a felt tip eyeliner pen yesterday and they were SIXTY DOLLARS. Is that expected? (ping @redambition, who knows these things)

---

@redambition Cheers. I saw a YouTube tutorial for doing “flicky eyes” and they suggested the pen is better for beginners!

---

Wondering if the cats have managed to get into the concrete… or if my jury-rigged fan has fallen over into it and ruined it. #anticipation

---

@randomknits @redambition This one? http://t.co/kG6i0HbL Sweet! What colour? My eyelashes are brown. Does that preclude black liner?

---

@imdominating Never underestimate the grossness of Theon. (Have you read the books? I shall say no more otherwise…)

---

Hooray! Fan is still upright, and no visible cat footprints in cement.

---

@redambition My Mom is coming out to visit end of July… She’s usually happy to play courier. 🙂

---

@redambition You can always order and have em sent to her house early. Just have to wait a few weeks to get em though!

---

@imdominating I am of the opinion, just between us, that his peener got cut off. I felt sorry for him a little bit!

---

@goldfishgeorge Ooh, thanks for the tip! Will check it out.

---

Holy crap, knitters. Did you see FB? Bex and Jakk got MARRIED in New York!!

---

@stufromoz I actually bought my first ever wellies on the weekend, and I am SO EXCITED to wear them today!

---

Forecast is for three days of epic rain, but me and my new gumboots don’t care! http://t.co/i5RPIJrt

---

Left @the_snook at home with builders. The floor is happening! Can’t wait to see it complete. http://t.co/doSGTpQE

---

@redambition Got em at Target on the weekend. $24! But larger sizes pretty much sold out. 🙁

---

@Justacogitating Unfortunately the Australian release isn’t til JULY. I am going to be spoiled; it’s inevitable. 🙁

---

Second-guessing our decision for black grout. Tiler recommends grey instead; says black is hard to keep clean. Any thoughts?

---
