    Why aren’t there native OSX ports of Dia and Gimp? I like them, but god they’re ugly in X11. I’d pay for nicer versions.


    @henrytapia But I’d pay! There’s gotta be a business opportunity there. @the_snook thinks it’s rather a technical limitation.


    @that_alison Heh. I don’t knit ’em; I sew them from pre-made socks. But regardless – no way. πŸ˜€


    Watching Whirlpool discussion about Internet outage and laughing at geeks losing their shit. (Confession: I miss Facebook already.)


    @gilmae The whole internets was broken for a lot of Australia for the past hour or so: http://t.co/IojLtPET. Not for you?


    Internet seems to be working again, both on my iPhone (Telstra) and in the office (iiNet). Phew. Crisis averted.

    Super excited that we got a booking for the Game of Thrones dinner at Gastro Park for my BIRTHDAY next month! http://t.co/c6NtrK3A


    @imdominating I am somewhat hoping they bring me a big birthday HORSE HEART to gnaw on dramatically.

    @blakkat They just keep bringing things around to your table. You don’t even have to get up! It’s awesome.


    @blakkat When I was there, they gave you a little red/green disc you could flip to indicate if you wanted food or a break. πŸ™‚


    @blakkat The one on William Street. They’re very trendy now. Also been to Wildfire at Circ Quay years ago, and Ola Rio in Chippo recently.


    @jenbishopsydney Lovely! You must thank yourself. πŸ™‚


    Baking PB cookies in a shameless attempt to make my new co-workers like me… http://t.co/SqOX28mL


    @codepo8 I get them too (but for $75 AUD). I just bin ’em. I can’t be bothered.


    Hey @lemon_lime: This is so for you. Banana Republic’s new Mad Men collection: http://t.co/qykppCpd


    @lemon_lime Seriously, I could see you wearing (and working the hell out of) that dude’s exact outfit.


    @Gin_ev_ra http://t.co/WyjLaogw is useful in these cases. πŸ™‚


    @imdominating Awesome. I wish it got cold enough here to wear big warm stompy boots.


    The cookies went over very well. πŸ™‚

    CATatelier by CatAtelier on Etsy – BRILLIANT. Everything about this is brilliant. Why won’t my stubborn-ass cats let me dress them up? Personal favourites: the top hat, the strawberry tie, and the James Bond open collar.

    QuiltCon – Hey Mom – You should go to this. It looks neat!

    Ate a tiny bit of birthday cake out of social obligation. It was awesome. Now counting down til the sugar crash…


    @witty_knitter YOU’VE AWAKENED THE BEAST! (The last time I mentioned the s-word in a tweet, I got followed a lot of Those People. *shudder*)


    @chrisgander So wait, are you inviting current employees too? Then you should add @kunaal84 and @rajsingh2505. πŸ™‚


    @chrisgander Oh wait, it’s on the 16th? I don’t think I can make it then. That’s my birthday weekend…


    @chrisgander We’re definitely going out Saturday night. But may end up doing something Friday too. I’ve put “maybe” for now.


    @Kat13v @witty_knitter The day I make a living by selling $14 novelty hole punches is the day I jump off the Harbour Bridge.


    I discovered it *is* possible to eat #paleo at Pancakes on the Rocks. http://t.co/VZpRimXO


    @heathergracious Ooh. I am very, very tempted.


    @heathergracious Guy next to me had those. They looked good too!


    RT @jezfletcher: It’s David Foster Wallace’s birthday. I’m celebrating it the traditional way by not having finished reading Infinite Jest.


    These damn socks just aren’t growing. #neverending #knitting http://t.co/it0hWjzF


    @kcarruthers I switched to Telstra from Optus & I’m very happy. Asked them to match old Optus plan and they gave me unadvertised deal!


    Planning to bake cookies for my coworkers tomorrow. On a related note, somewhere in India @kunaal84 is weeping…


    @drkknits Aren’t you supposed to be doing something with dogs?
