Election Day! I was tempted to wear my bike helmet so my voting priorities were @ University of Notre Dame http://t.co/ij7Drval

@stufromoz No, too many democratic carbs on that bun! Came home to make Chicken Salad of Freedom instead. 🙂

---

Fancy dinner courtesy of @the_snook: Mustardy Salmon in a Packet with Asparagus and carrots. Yum. http://t.co/y4bqksUQ

---

Sometimes spending 4 hours in the pub with your co-workers is *exactly* what you need.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes ARE YOU KIDDING? I have the special edition DVD I can lend you after if you want to see the deleted scenes.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes Rodd and @kunaal84 had never seen it either. Your whole generation of Aussies missed out. It’s GNARLY. GOONIES NEVER SAY DIE!

---

How about I drink something that *isn’t* alcamaholic for a little bit? How about that idea?

---

@kunaal84 @RoseRed_Shoes Actually, I feel like watching it RIGHT NOW! To the DVD player!

---

Seriously, the theme to The Goonies is one of the best movie soundtracks of all time.

---

@knitterjp @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 The Special Edition DVD, by the way, has commentary by the grown-up cast. Josh Brolin is BRUTALLY HOT.

---

@knitterjp @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 For more information: http://t.co/1LHYxODN

---

@kunaal84 @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes You just totes ruined my Halloween costume. (WHY ARE YOU NOT ON SKYPE?)

---

“Well Mrs. Walsh, I speak perfect Spanish! And I’d be happy to communicate with Rosalita…” This was *such* a good idea.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 I used to take my blog a lot more seriously.

---

@knitterjp @kunaal84 @rosered_shoes The Snook and I quote Data at least once a fortnight: “I am wondering, what is in the bag?!”

---

@drkknits @kunaal84 @knitterjp @RoseRed_Shoes And thus commences the Sean Astin Appreciation Club. Paging @imdominating…

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp I have switched to the live broadcast so I may watch along with you. DAMN, ANDIE SUCKS.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp Martha Plimpton (Stef) is AWESOME. I saw her onstage in a play in Chicago once. Fantastic.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @kunaal84 @knitterjp In high school we watched The Goonies translated in German. Hilariously, gnarly = gnarly.

---

@knitterjp @drkknits @rosered_shoes @kunaal84 Trivia: They hid the pirate ship from the kids til the sequence when they first see it.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 Let’s be honest: Worst. CGI. Rocks. Ever.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 “You are my best invention.” *sob*

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 “Sloth? You’re gonna live with me now. I’m gonna take care of ya… because I love ya.” *sob*

---

Mikey is lucky he lives in America and not the UK, where those jewels would be, like treasure trove. And then his house would be foreclosed.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @kunaal84 And now it is time for some Cyndi Lauper randomness: http://t.co/rF47cXDb

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp I have switched to Kate Beckinsale in “Emma.” Because I’m all high-falutin and shit.

---

Ugh. Goonies is over and I think my hangover is starting to kick in…

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Me neither. I did care a great deal for Jeremy Northam, though. Too bad he’s not in this one.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Wow. Kate Beckinsale before she got all slutty and vampire-y. I need to watch Cold Comfort Farm again…

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp ZOMG. SOMEONE WITH A HUGE FOREHEAD AND CHIN. DO NOT WANT.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp Mark Strong. OH DEAR GOD, HE’S THE BADDIE FROM KICK-ASS. WTF.

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp It was on a few nights ago. I recorded it for just such an occasion.

---

The best part of being married to @the_snook is when I say, “Hey, Prunella Scales!” he barkes without a beat from the other room: “BASIL!”

---

@drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes @lifehacker So. Not. Paleo.

---

@RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @knitterjp But wow. Farmer Martin is kind of a babe. So this version has that going for it.

---

@drkknits Are you saying I should stop tweeting you?

---

This Mr. Knightley is a dick.

---

For the record: James Squire Orchard Crush cider is *very* tasty. But damn, it gives a wicked headache a few hours later.

---

It’s not every day you get to work and see Nazis drinking cappucino on your street.

---

@lemon_lime Nah, not yet. Have to build up *very* slowly. By “run,” I really mean walk with a bit of light jogging. Better than nothing!

---

@BendalongMorgan Yep, apparently. Some historical drama filming in the Rocks…

---

RT @samesame: BREAKING: Prime Minister @JuliaGillard says she’ll now no longer speak at the AUS Christian Lobby’s conference next month. …

Aine and I enjoying the sun at our first official Rocks Social Knitting Group. @ The Paddock-Pottinger Park http://t.co/eGottvQv

@VenessaHunt Sweet Art are amazing, but sooooo expensive: http://t.co/JWUDI9EY.

---

@lemon_lime You do realise it’s a trilogy, right? 🙂 (I only read the first one.)

---

How to motivate your devs: zucchini bread! http://t.co/66iGt346

---

@gilmae There’s a EULA on this zucchini bread that signs you up to work all weekend to meet a deadline. You are forewarned.
