    Good grief. I am *still* getting spammed by recruiters on LinkedIn for PHP jobs despite not having done that role for nearly 5 years.


    Having a little red wine to lubricate my voice before @suzyhausfrau’s podcast recording…


    @drwitty_knitter I just noticed the Twitter name change. 🙂 Niiiiiice…

    @lemon_lime I didn’t realise! I should have reminded you. Sorry…


    @Orange_Swan Hug-Me-Tight? My first thought was: BANDOLIER.


    @imdominating @JustShireen “Powdered”? Weird.

    @aunty_toots Niiiiiice.


    @mudsurfer Huh. In burgers I couldn’t tell the difference from beef!

    @gilmae Because – pretty. That’s about it. But it’s just a whim; I don’t think I will. My existing phone meets my needs.


    @drkknits @randomknits The lodge doesn’t have them, but I believe @knitabulous is bringing plastic ones for the party…


    Interesting. Just found out one of my Sydney followers (who I haven’t met, I don’t think) is cheating with a friend of a friend’s partner.


    Not calling anyone out specifically, but if you’re being a dirty dog… You should know that People Know. And They Are Watching You.


    Not that I condone slut-shaming, mind you. Get your freak on, I say. Just don’t be sneaky and hurt other people when you do.


    @ChrissieM It’s all a bit tawdry, isn’t it?


    @supercres Awww, but 14yo girls need pictures of non-threatening boys! And there’s no “Sassy” around anymore.

    Running late to Guild! In a cab now… (And I have 4kg of candy.) cc @ClareLouise1308 @aunty_toots @SallyPompom


    Adventures in paleo: camel burgers! (Found them at our normal Coles in the game section, if you can believe it.) Tasty.


    Running quite a bit late to Amanda Palmer concert… Still just the openers, right?


    Drinking beer out of a can and sitting on the floor like a damn STUDENT. (at @Enmore_Theatre for Amanda Palmer an…) http://t.co/vzVPIkxHjM


    She’s got Honi Soit students talking about the vulva cover. Quoth the Snook: “Kids are awesome.” http://t.co/5K13PP06UW


    “Go forth and bravely fight Tony Abbott.” – Amanda Fucking Palmer. Hells yeah.


    F*ck yeah, science! @ Enmore Theatre http://t.co/VT6dstEt0n


    Old people hiding in the back… @ Enmore Theatre http://t.co/mtCbpHNwon


    It doesn’t matter if you want it back, you’ve given it away. You’ve given it away. (She played my favourite song.)


    Amanda covered Smells Like Teen Spirit. It RULED. Only marred by the fact that half the audience thinks of it as an “oldie.”


    @miahorri You’ve been hacked. Just sent me a dodgy DM.

    @Ezzles You still all right for housesitting in one fortnight? That really snuck up on me!!!


    @randomknits @Gidgetknits WHAT? WHERE?!


    @venks79 I’m annoyed they showed it next to a dumb-looking woman. Maybe I should send them an e-note to complain. 🙂


    @Ezzles Wonderful. I’ll email you!


    @drkknits My office is a place where Fridays usually end with beer. I am powerless.

    @mrs_sockvictim It was yesterday. I did a radio interview. You are out of the loop!


    I used to think Russell Brand was an idiot. Nowadays I think he’s absolutely brilliant. http://t.co/92mUEGTBd3


    @Gidgetknits Nope. Just read a few things by him in the past 6 months and realised he’s actually really intelligent and funny!


    @miahorri I think you’ve been hacked!

    @drkknits Mine tonight will probably cost just slightly more than Petey’s visit Tuesday. Stupid silly cat. 🙂


    If I were still able to run, I’d be putting Katy Perry’s “Roar” on a running playlist RIGHT NOW.


    Just picked up another lovely door prize for @KnitGuildNSW Camp from @Morriswool. Thanks Albert and team!


    @esmewatson Is it meant to be the Deathly Hallows?


    @suzyhausfrau Lucky for you, @SallyPompom and I never turn down a chance to be famous. Not sure about @ClareLouise1308 though…


    @knitterjp @smark31 Let’s see the shoes!


    Katherine always makes me look way more stylish than I actually am. @ Travis George Hair Lounge http://t.co/1bXOzTAlLF


    Dietary requirements submitted for @KnitGuildNSW Camp. This train is rolling on without stopping! 7 days left!


    Must go to bed and get some sleep before my RADIO INTERVIEW tomorrow morning. *clears throat*


    @mikeefreedom I didn’t know about it til yesterday afternoon. It’s Roald Dahl’s birthday, so they want to talk about the celebrations.


    Um, NIKE make Liberty print sneakers. Did we know this? http://t.co/P1VwxBRlDh #liberty #insanity


    My radio interview with http://t.co/c7OsIPUxK1 will be airing around 10:40am Sydney time if you want to listen live! Happy Roald Dahl Day!


    @catehstn Are you back at work? Feeling better?


    @BCain Oh, the limitations of a hashtag. I was talking about Liberty (as in, the English textile company) FABRIC. Ha!


    @catehstn Great! Supposedly being aired in about 40 minutes. 🙂


    @catehstn Do you know if any of the photos from gWiT have been published? Wondering if there’s one of us I can use for office newsletter.


    @catehstn Roald Dahl Day. 🙂 I run http://t.co/OAcaIg1chj. They just wanted to chat about the celebrations, his popularity, etc
