Went to Eveleigh Farmers’ Market. Not sure which was more annoying: crowds of inner west hipsters or paying $7 for a tub of cream cheese.
Congrats and to many more ππ½

Hooray! After more than a few false alarms, my new nephew Mason Anthony Howard was born a few hours ago. Sounds like everybody is doing okay. Congratulations to Ant and Kara!

It’s odd how getting email from the company that sacked you 6 months before still brings on immediate feelings of annoyance and bitterness.
@kdelarue Very interesting. I got an email the other day from somebody reading it who managed to find my site. I’ll have to look for it…
@kdelarue Treglown (prev biographer) thought that Dahl exaggerated a lot of his “spy” activities. Wonder if Conant has actual evidence…
This is disgusting. An Indian friend told me of a narrow escape from violent racist bogans in Bondi few weeks ago: http://bit.ly/A9Cml
On my way to a special birthday dinner for @gadgetgirl70… π
Hooray! It’s Amy blowing out her candles… http://yfrog.com/0kbw1qj
So stuffed with Indian food. Nilgiris in St Leonards = highly recommended, especially if you get a private cushion room!
Hooray! I’ve got a new little nephew: Mason Anthony Howard. Congrats to Ant and Kara!
@Justacogitating I haven’t gotten much other than a pic. (Just emailed to you guys.) But presumably everything is okay!
@bellsg Good grief. I thought the M&S server crashing last weekend was bad. At least we didn’t get friggin’ death threats over it.

Just found out that one of my best college friends is coming out to visit in October and gets to come to our Halloween party. YAY, EILEEN!
@BostonSydney Don’t bother with train. It’s expensive and slow. It’s worth it to get a cab, especially if you can split with somebody else.
Can this be right? http://forecasts.org/ausd.htm They’re predicting near parity between AUD and USD by end of the year?!
@BostonSydney Not terribly common, but it wouldn’t hurt to ask. Especially if you make any friends on the long, long flight over!
@Gin_ev_ra I always thought the model in that ad looked like a drag queen. There’s a LOT of makeup happening there, and not in a good way.
@eileenDCoE WOOHOO! Roomate and Roomater Down Under. I may have to break out the crayons for that one…
@shanea You are totally invited. I need to provide @eileenDCoE with the widest possible range of single Aussie men. π
RT @neilhimself: RT @pussreboots: Is that why scientists are always losing their keys? <- Tell me about it. Right, @eileenDCoE? π
@twelveeyes Yeah, my cousin @imdominating sent me this link today: http://www.popsugar.com/3196745. π
Heading to the city for knitting at the Grace Hotel. Anybody else going that way?
Had a great time at knitting tonight. Probably 15+ knitters, and every single one on #ravelry as far as I could tell!
Croque Monsieur – sandwich of the gods – about to come out of the oven…
Oh, hells yeah! http://yfrog.com/0cdckyj
No no no… not burnt! Just some very brown cheese. It was beeyoootiful. Here’s the recipe: http://bit.ly/ywzd5
@steverunner We get similar laughs when the vet calls about our kitten Petey, whose full name is “Professor Death.” (Husband named him.)
Just completed a 5.96 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Vi2d6 #runkeeper
It’s like the 480 bus drivers have my picture up or something. Total ENEMIES, I tell you.
Cross stitch… ON CARS! That’s pretty neat. I’m still bitter that my Dad talked me out of stencil-painting my crappy car in high school.
Judging by his post on Facebook, my brother Anthony and his wife Kara went to the hospital to have their second child about seven hours ago! Can’t wait to get the update…
@steven_noble You never, NEVER ask a woman that question. EVER. Some of us just have pot bellies. I got asked it at the Geek Girl Dinner. π
@traceyh That actually made me light-headed to read. HOLY CRAP. Congratulations! Jovie is gorgeous. But man… I don’t know how you did it.
Grrr. Samoan guy with crazy hair in a suit walking around the office. Reminds me of some movie. WHAT IS IT? I can’t remember…
@imdominating Nah, it’s like a big ‘fro.
@imdominating THAT’S TOTALLY WHAT I’M THINKING!
If anybody in Sydney needs a good cleaner, ours has a few openings available. AND THEY ROCK. DM me for details.
@Steffi_83 $70 to do our whole place. We get them in once a fortnight. They’ll give you a quote once they see your place. You want details?
@crumpet Eh, it wasn’t that great. I was expecting something much more awesome.
@Steffi_83 Pretty good. Had physio again today, so I took it easy on the rower. Eight of us from work, & more people = easier workout. π
I had to buy ear plugs rated to 33dB to drown out the daily 5am bouts of Cat Wrestlemania. Now you know why I’m grumpy in the morning.
Just completed a 4.62 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/jIc2k #runkeeper
@venks79 Actually today they were pretty good! That’s just how contrary they are.
Just got the new company phone list. ALL of my information is incorrect. FML.

Hm. I was all excited to plant a Three Sisters Garden (corn, beans, squash) til I read the bit about needing a minimum plot of 10’x10′ to ensure good corn pollination. Huh. I guess that’s why it pretty much sucked the last time I tried to grow it.

My home economics teacher taught us to use “J cloths” as press cloths. (Cellulose cleaning cloths). The upside of using…
We have the Harold McGee book, v interesting and often useful. Right up his alley I reckon!
