    Hey @DanielaMilanesi – I think you’ve been hacked! You sent me a dodgy DM.


    @jingerly You’ve been hacked! You just sent me a dodgy DM.


    @randomknits @drkknits Hahaha, I wouldn’t know how to do any of those things. Not sure I ever did. I’d just google it. 😀


    I started saying “Coolcoolcool” as a jokey reference to Abed on Community. And now I do it reflexively and unironically. Coolcoolcool.


    Just had an idea for a guessing game for Camp: guess the number of meters on the arbitrary ball of wool! (cc @ClareLouise1308 @aunty_toots)


    @ClareLouise1308 @aunty_toots Oooh, how about a picture of a swatch, and they have to write out the pattern or chart?


    MEOW Foundation Yarn Collection: http://t.co/UwSYghfB1u // GAH I LOVE THIS. I am totally going to get Tuxedo and Calico!


    @witty_knitter @ClareLouise1308 @aunty_toots Well, we’re not linking the ACTUAL puzzles. 😛


    @jannism A friend from the US is visiting Sydney. I suggested Jamie’s Italian as a dinner option. She said “Jamie who?” Never heard of him.


    @jannism I was just surprised. He was so ubiquitous in the UK – and now in Australia – that I kind of thought he was everywhere.


    Hipster center of the universe. Drinking a beer with hazelnut in it. (@ Frankie’s Pizza) http://t.co/dLXIt566Su


    @mikeefreedom Nah. I’ve always been a self-hating hipster. 🙂


    Eileen met the creepy statue near my office today. @ Australia Square http://t.co/EbYWbwPs4K


    The Vans store at TGV has Liberty print Vans sneakers. LIBERTY OVERLOAD. I AM KIND OF LOSING IT.


    @randomknits I only saw them from the bus. They’re in the front window. Will get a closer look if I can!

    MEOW Foundation Yarn Collection – LOVE IT! I can get knitting wool inspired by Petey Cat and Dr. Amy Jones! I am very tempted…

    @justasitsounds Ha. I’m just watching the results now!


    YAAAAAAAYYYYY! My favourite won #GABO!


    @justasitsounds I had all sorts of ideas on the way home. User UI, admin UI, all kinds of stuff. I’m excited!!


    @drkknits If Nancy had a patisserie, I’d go to it.


    Apparently, One Direction cover “Teenage Dirtbag” on their movie soundtrack. It’s not on iTunes. This is now my mission. (cc @the_snook)


    @drkknits @mrs_sockvictim I was actually trying to come up with a decent joke there myself. 🙂

    My colleague made Poo Cupcakes! http://t.co/2HFHgSMUYt


    @randomknits I like the bunnies, but man, I can’t stand designs that preclude wearing a bra.


    Surprised to run into @snarkyboojum at @Mi9 today leading an AWS session! It took us like 5min to recognise one another. (He’s beardless.)


    @drkknits I had a splinter a few weeks ago. I channeled my Indiana heritage and made a BAKING SODA POULTICE.

    RT @Orange_Swan: New Kids on the Block and Vanilla Ice fan sweaters. Oh yes. #NKOTB #VanillaIce #Ijustboughtposters

    @clepetit Luckily I realised it as I was doing it. I was still tempted though…


    TIL: Google All Access in Chrome requires Flash to play music. The UI doesn’t tell you that at ALL. Spent 10 minutes trying to troubleshoot.


    Warm Rocket Salad with Bacon & Poached Egg. The rocket’s from my garden! #myfoodstory #produce http://t.co/q8iZEIkuqT


    My other RSPCA Cupcake Day offering: Heisenberg Blue Cupcakes! Kicks like a mule, yo. http://t.co/ZYOgwr2Yvs


    @drkknits I was tempted to take off my pants. But I didn’t.

    Knitters: what is a decent but not too expensive bubbly? I need a case of it for a, uh, unnamed knitting event.


    @lifeasdaddy That took me, like, 5 minutes to get.


    @witty_knitter Haha, $8.50 per bottle if you get 6 at Dan Murphy’s! WINNER.


    @RoseRed_Shoes Too much, given that I need to buy like 15 bottles. 🙂


    @drkknits I’m getting some fake ones too. What do you like? (However, this is for Friday night…)


    Let’s put it this way, everyone. Is Yellow awful? http://t.co/CWUPz2ay1I


    @RoseRed_Shoes There will be, but you guys aren’t coming Friday night, right?


    @stufromoz The less I spend on grog, the more I can spend on things like masseuse and raffle prizes and cupcakes.


    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Cool, thanks!


    @AusVintageGrrl Cool. Given that I’m really only allowing like 1 glass a person, it’ll do. 🙂 Thanks…


    @drkknits I’m sure there will be other non-drinkers. And if there’s any left, you can drink it Saturday! 🙂


    Next question: mini-cupcakes. I want to order a lot, but they don’t need to be fancy as I will decorate myself. Ideas?


    @mrs_sockvictim That’s what I was thinking. Thanks!


    @twalve Hahaha, now there’s a mental image!


    @trudib73 Should be fine. We’ve got 3 fridges in the lodge!


    Made it onto the bus bearing 23 cupcakes. Cross fingers I make it to work without jostling!


    @jeaniebabb It was sacrificed for Quality Control. 🙂
