    Taking advantage of today’s Knitters Guild topic today to bust out my snuggly 80s-tastic geography cardigan. http://t.co/ylUSM94kR9


    Hm. The anaesthetic is nearly worn off. Now my mouth is starting to hurt. Mood darkening…


    I am kind of obsessed with the new Opal cards. I can’t wait til it’s rolled out everywhere. http://t.co/AdM5rXz3HO http://t.co/7v0lmQT4NY


    @imdominating Oh, that’s just everyday life here in the winter.


    The hipster-ification of Chippo continues. TERRARIUM AND SPOKEN WORD WORKSHOPS. @ Broadway http://t.co/RBu99eV24w


    Truth: if Milf Island was a real show, I would definitely watch it.


    @JennaPrice *averting my eyes*

    @lemon_lime This is why you don’t rough house, boys.


    @Illdrinn We’re seeing it Tuesday. They’ve apparently rented out cinema for Sydney staff and friends. I’m not expecting it to be good!


    He doesn’t give cuddles very often, so I take advantage when he does! #purr http://t.co/PkTcXk6ucL


    Drat. I beat @the_snook home, and I don’t think I can take these boots off by myself!


    My first filling in 20 years. Good experience tho – I love my new dentist! (@ AHM Dental & Eyecare Practice) http://t.co/3puqWgwthX

    @HarveyNormanAU All good. Josh rang me this morning and is arranging a service call. Thank you for following up!


    @ChrissieM @manakatie That is incredibly weird. A friend in the US just posted on FB that he got a Christmas card today with same error!


    @TempleWebster I have $10 referral credit, but I can’t figure out how to actually use it! Nothing on your Help page.


    @CamSatchelCo Is it normal for colour to come off my satchel? Water spilt in my new red backpack and it did this: http://t.co/mUbEYsHh7j

    Last week I ordered Internet-enabled bathroom scales. Today I bought giant painting of a deer head. I am a hipster caricature at this point.


    Hip, funky knitters in the house! (@ Morris & Sons) http://t.co/MaVeGFVVLv


    Lame. Several of us made special effort for Telegraph photog, but it appears we are not the hip, funky knitters he was expecting.


    Whatever. Beer. (@ 99 York St) http://t.co/qu257sbK5v


    Note the actual Stitch and Bitch happening over *here*. And that’s the photog talking to the ringers over *there*. http://t.co/k6Xjus0Loj


    @witty_knitter Not to mention I’m sitting next to @smark31, who looks like she runs a Dutch fashion magazine.


    He ended up taking a couple group shots of us. He said, “Smile for the camera!” And @smark31 went, “For the Telegraph?!” BWAHAHA! Classic.


    Seriously, it was up there with “Thank you for that useful contribution.” We should keep a list of @smark31’s Greatest Hits.


    The Internet-enabled bathroom scale has been successfully setup, and it’s SO TOMORROW. Also, SHINY. #quantifiedself #fitbit #aria


    @brockleyboyo It can, but I’m not that much of an exhibitionist. It syncs to a website where I can see graphs, etc.


    @drkknits Look at that face!!


    @Yarna_ @drkknits I bought Amy a frog with a squeaky thing in it once. Scared the crap out of her. She’s never gone near it. It’s yours now!


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes The key was figuring out she only likes to eat squeaky things that are COOKED.


    @CamSatchelCo Thanks! Have emailed.


    @lemon_lime Oh no! Whaaat?!


    My leather boots are squeaking. This is bothering me more than expected. Any ideas for quick fixes?


    @surrenderdotty It’s more the reaction if everybody else in the office I’m worried about. 🙂

    Happy birthday @witty_knitter!


    @witty_knitter If you ask for a single room, I’ll kick you in the shin.


    @MissPiggyEats @witty_knitter It was The Sewing Room, but they moved from SH some time ago.


    @MissPiggyEats @witty_knitter I think they moved to Victoria… http://t.co/FztTuLLCoR


    @randomknits Yayyyyy! Congrats! Told you it would work out. 🙂


    I really wish I didn’t have to dye my hair. (@ Travis George Hair Lounge) http://t.co/pljBao815d


    Chopped it! @ Travis George Hair Lounge http://t.co/LWeFO14uJZ


    @witty_knitter @knitterjp @drkknits Hermione isn’t doing it. I’ve got such limited knitting time; I need to work on my cardy!


    @witty_knitter @knitterjp @drkknits I really like it! I’ve done plenty of it though. 🙂


    Today I learned: Cambridge Satchels are super stylish and trendy, but they are not colour-fast if you… http://t.co/WksYdvgys0


    @StuartCRyan Other than my bedroom carpet looking like a murder scene, pretty good. 🙂


    @Orange_Swan I got most of it out. But the carpet is pretty trashed anyway. We’d already planned to replace it.


    @drkknits They have em on the US. I remember congratulating one of my college friends senior year when she got approved to fly.


    @drkknits I remember there were strict rules tho on having good eyesight, being fit. I think it’s a strenuous thing to do.


    RT @anamariecox: Robb Stark pondering if he can still behead people if all he has is an umbrella… http://t.co/uzIJRKPsFV


    @HarveyNormanAU I think it was work firewall. I submitted it at lunchtime yest. from outside. However, no response other than auto reply…


    @surrenderdotty Water bottle leaked inside. 🙁
