WHAT SHOULD WE CALL STAGE MANAGEMENT – I am amused that I still get all of these. Damn. Sometimes I miss calling a show.

@drkknits Franklin Habit just commented on @drwitty_knitter’s FB post that he’s gotten hate mail for NOT posting about the damn mittens.

@codepo8 One of the few I haven’t unlocked yet. Grrrr.
@Ascasewwen Oh, that’s very pretty! I avoided because the pattern pics make the neckline look very wide. Did you change yours at all?
@catehstn Just sent you a sneaky DM. 🙂
@mobywhale @webdirections Same here! My two WDYK speaking engagements were so fun; they definitely got me addicted to presenting!

As You Wish
I Played The New Princess Bride Video Game So You Wouldn’t Have To | Kotaku Australia – Huh. So there’s a new Princess Bride game available for iOS. It doesn’t sound very good though.
What is good is As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride. We listened to the audiobook on the way to and from Rodd’s parents’ house at Christmas. Cary Elwes reads the book and it features actual soundbites from a great many people in the cast. We loved it. It sounds like everyone on it had a wonderful time. They talk about Andre the Giant a LOT, and what a great guy he was. It’s so sweet when Robin Wright talks about how dashing Cary was, and it’s obvious they were both smitten from day one. It’s just a lovely, lovely book, and if you like the movie, you should read or listen to it.
The only problem: it made me really excited to re-watch the movie, so we did as soon as we got home. And man, I hadn’t seen it in a long time… some of the effects are a lot worse than I remembered. I think as a kid you gloss over that part. So I’m warning you, if you haven’t watched it in a while, you might be surprised in a not-great way.

@damncabbage Such the best game! I liked the lo-fi DRM where you had to enter a random word from the printed manual.
@mobywhale @ignitesydney Haha, I submitted two I think! 🙂
@Xavier_Ho Yay! My first ever conference. I’m a little nervous. 🙂
