    OH FFS. Gmail finally forced me to upgrade to the new theme. I hate it hate it HATE IT. Ick.


    Half price? In my size?! Thank you, Santa Claus! #newdress @ Apple pie fashions http://t.co/A4oYnowa


    RT @henrytapia: @web_goddess Why? // Mystery meat buttons. Stupid importance labels. Avatars on emails. Too much white space.


    RT @marcooda: @web_goddess go to settings, you can revert back. // Woot! Thanks. Reverted. They can pry it from my cold dead hands. 🙂


    @drkknits I’ll gift it back to you next year… 🙂


    @henrytapia Some of that, I grant. What’s the harm in leaving the old version as an option for existing users?


    Waiting in massive queue at Strawberry Hills post office for parcel pickup. FML.


    On the plus side, I think it’s our package from Colette!! @randomknits @Gin_ev_ra


    Got my package. And then the clerk at @auspost Surry Hills managed to lose my drivers license in 30 seconds. Yes, really.


    @knitterjp @auspost Nope. There was a crush of 6 customers, 3 clerks, and a dog at the window. Hoping they find it later. REALLY annoying.


    Correction @auspost. It was Strawberry Hills. Too annoyed to type correctly. No, I didn’t get it back.


    @knitterjp Ooh, holiday is not cancelled? Yay!


    @bellsknits You just have to make new traditions! There’s plenty to like/enjoy about Xmas outside of kids opening gifts (tho that’s fun).


    This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it SHINE. My nephew is the coolest kid ever. http://t.co/pYmUioNk So much joy!


    The good news is, replacement license only costs $23. Still, going back to @auspost tomorrow to see if it turned up. I KNOW it’s there.


    @jezfletcher Guy at work got one. Agree, it’s huge. Must not be marketing to women. I’d need two hands to do anything with it.


    @mrs_sockvictim Run. If you go, I’ll go!


    @Gin_ev_ra @randomknits Okay, how can I get you your patterns? You around the city at all in next 2 weeks?


    Well. @auspost website says Strawberry Hills PO opens at 9am. Yet here I am at 9:30 with the place locked up tight. WTF.


    @mrs_sockvictim @sixandahalfst I’m in the middle of one right now!


    @mrs_sockvictim @sixandahalfst Wet? Sun has been shining in Chippo! Not a bit of rain. Is it raining elsewhere??

    Solo run, no intervals. Just walked when I needed it. It’s HOT!

    The most insufferable Christmas song ever – Christmas – Salon.com – Every time I hear this song, I think about Nora‘s hatred of it. It’s my own Christmas tradition. 🙂

    @bellsknits You are nuts. Trashy mags are the BEST PART of the hairdresser! That’s my judging-trashy-celebrities time! 🙂


    F**k yeah, Sandy Cohen. https://t.co/SGT0FKdd


    @witty_knitter Awww, thanks M-H. I’m gonna be just fine. Nearly on hols… just a few hours more! 🙂


    Santa brought me a nice box of chocolates! @ MobileActive http://t.co/hqn5SuC5


    For this Yank, the wearing of silly hats at Christmas parties is still a novelty. @ Puntino Trattoria http://t.co/vmZpdVBF


    Morris & Sons knitters: we still on? Grace Bar seems closed. Does it open at 5? @knitterjp @Yarna_


    @knitterjp @Yarna_ @knitdra It’s open now and I’m here!


    @imdominating Yay! Toasty woollen socks are the best on a cold night.


    I am truly grateful for the co-workers that said they’d miss me but also wished me well. Even though I’ve still got 2weeks left. 🙂


    @stufromoz Gave notice yesterday. Starting at http://t.co/xoEyTxv0 on Jan 23. Same role (BA). 🙂


    Hey @mrs_sockvictim! Some festive knitters want to know if you’re turning up…


    @mrs_sockvictim Ah, we figured something had gone wrong. You were missed!

    @drkknits @GeorgieKnits I actually like several of those. And I LOVE the ski jumpers!!


    @drkknits @GeorgieKnits I draw the line at, like, sewn on embellishments. But intarsia? I love it! Me and Jenny Kee all the way, baby.


    Yay! @the_snook got me bubbly to celebrate the news: I’m starting a new job next month! http://t.co/f47U1l7j


    Thanks everyone! Same role (Business Analyst) at new place: http://t.co/xoEyTxv0. Lots of exciting projects and new team to work with…


    @crumpet Ha, yeah. I guilted him into it because of the money he raised for Fauxvember. He doesn’t tweet much. 🙂


    @witty_knitter Bit of both, I think! Hate to leave my colleagues at old job behind, but after 3 years I need to stretch myself a bit.


    Behold my army of Wonky-Ass Gingerbread Men! @ Chippendale http://t.co/fklvMLFG


    @imdominating I have resorted to only buying presents for nieces and nephews. It helps when you don’t actually visit anybody.


    @codepo8 Dude, without that there wouldn’t have been all those sweet web-based chat rooms I hung out in in 1996!


    Ugh. Some people really know how to make you feel guilty. 🙁
