    @that_alison Nah, this isn’t the “night terrors” one. I went for the pricey but less side effects option. 🙂


    Deadpool just finished. Now I’m impressing @TheRealBnut and @Astarael with my excyclopedic knowledge of Salt-n-Pepa lyrics.


    No, I haven’t packed yet. But I did find the mythical “aqua shoes.” https://t.co/wxy367s2A4


    @TheRealBnut I tipped off Elaine via Slack. She’s running to Broadway now!!


    @TheRealBnut I think the Kmart/Target advice was the problem.


    @saberkite Did you say MANGOES???


    @saberkite OOOHHH, nice. Mango season is pretty much over here.


    @indefensible We moved away from them recently. Just in time, it seems…


    Packed 12 hours before the taxi arrives? That’s unpossible. https://t.co/T1nHMNfHmJ https://t.co/ooC5EwcyA1


    @stufromoz Nah, Philippines!


    @stufromoz Work and fun. 🙂


    @gilmae Don’t even, with that. I made all sorts of lists. I AM SORTED.


    @TheWonkaTonka Incidentally, we’re working out dates for a US visit. I’m hoping to be able to swing through Michigan in mid-June maybe?


    @TheWonkaTonka …with an amount of Tim Tams for you that will definitely attract the attention of Customs.


    @TheWonkaTonka BAH. They’re not right. We’ve got like 10 different varieties here. Piña colada, FTR, is pretty gross. Peanut butter = GOOD.


    Holy crap! Just discovered that Medibank accepts claims for my anti-malarial, and I just got half the cost back. EXCELLENT.


    @sebastiangrail Is that all you’re taking?!! (Oh god. Did I overpack?)


    @sebastiangrail Oh PHEW.

    @randomknits Same! Need to get my mojo back.


    @gilmae I hadn’t seen that particular link, but I’ve been a fan of @kosamari’s knitting + code talks and adventures for some time now! 🙂


    @gilmae @kosamari Nah, I only found out about her stuff before CampJS last year. I’m not into the machine stuff myself (yet)…


    @gilmae @kosamari She did a great knitting talk at JS Conf though that I’ve since seen referenced a zillion times! https://t.co/z4Vqnk2PAr


    Very fun to run into @clepetit today, even though I totally didn’t know he was in the country and thus nearly snubbed him as a random.


    RT @boundvariable: Only at @canva do you paint an angry koala when you launch a feature. https://t.co/CeZbsGD3eF


    @stevelikesyou @diversionary *groans*


    @stufromoz @clepetit Ha! I’m not sure exactly – we met at some tech event. For a while he was kicking my ass on Fitbit, IIRC.


    @diversionary @stevelikesyou I LITERALLY ROLLED MY EYES.


    @mobywhale Oh, I met a friend of yours tonight at @i386’s birthday drinks. Jared? He said you said hello. 🙂

    Just took my first anti-malarial pill. Wheeee!


    @TheRealBnut Malarone


    @TheRealBnut Mine suggested it. The others are cheaper but you have to take for longer and they have some nasty side effects, it seems.

    I’ll be chiming in on this live chat in half an hour if you want to listen in! https://t.co/qifTrEzU5e https://t.co/UwxloIMBP9


    So frustrating that my video isn’t working for the @mediascope_ chat! Sorry everyone. 🙁 https://t.co/e2Q0jX7Ax7


    Hey @blab – I’ve got a fast connection, but I’m unable to use video in the chat. Any ideas?


    @blab Yep, latest version of Chrome!


    @blab Audio is working, and I can see the video from the other two participants.


    @blab Hm. I thought I had, but I only see the microphone listed. How can I force it to re-ask?


    Well, if I accomplished nothing else in that web chat this morning, I gave @GEMINI3jobshare some shout outs! @madelgiles

    @rosepowell I liked it, but the reveal wasn’t super central to that. It prompted me to do a lot of reading about animal consciousness.


    Had to leave the @canva 10 Million Users celebration to finish my Easter Show Knitting. (Ugh. Down to the wire every damn year…)

    @TheWonkaTonka FURIOSA LIVES.


    @brodrigu Ha! Okay, off-the-grid gets you some hipster bonus points, definitely.


    @rosepowell Didn’t you read “We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves”?? No on the chimp.

    Video chats on sick days mean the @canva Manila team get to see my spiffy Princess Leia jammies. 🙂


    @saberkite Not today… but sometimes. https://t.co/MEI545RYJA 😀

    @canva Not today, but I’ve been known to rock it old school in the past. 🙂 https://t.co/MEI545RYJA


    @lemon_lime @canva Alas, it was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…


    @themaninblue Something that didn’t SPARK JOY?


    Congratulations, mate! https://t.co/kfwfv99gCa


    GAHH. I forgot the first rule of working from home: never answer the phone. Only spammers and telemarketers call during business hours.


    @gilmae Tell me about it. @the_snook has some crazy justification for keeping it.


    Hipster poll: how many different ways could you make coffee in your house right now? We have four. (Instant doesn’t count. You lose.)


    Actually it’s 5! @johnallsopp reminded me of Aeropress. That, espresso, slow drip, French press, and Moka pot. https://t.co/NZtHkmQldA


    Points for arguing semantics, but EW. No instant and no Frankenstein coffee analogues either! @MikeRiethmuller https://t.co/JbnQdrl6x3


    Whoa. @chewxy definitely wins! https://t.co/LMCFBiq719


    @TheRealBnut Nice one!
