How not to market science to girls | Bad Astronomy | Discover Magazine – I’m wearing pink right now, but sheesh. If I’d gotten “Beauty Spa Lab” as a kid, I would’ve been friggin’ offended.

@Gin_ev_ra Sure thing! Is your email blog AT ginevra.org?
@rachievaichie I’d love to borrow Ginger at some point, if you don’t mind. Maybe I’ll swap you one of mine later. 🙂
I had a visit from the Wool Fairy! (olimaddy destash haters can suck it. I <3 her.) http://t.co/xvQWkKTo
@AusVintageGrrl Ahhh, Top Secret Show Item. Beyond that, I cannot say. But in all likelihood you’ll see it at the Opera. 🙂
Our office power is out! Anybody else??
Blackout appears to be affecting Darlinghurst area. Some traffic lights out.
RT @Ausgrid: Smoke reported inside Darlinghurst substation. Power cut for safety, interrupting 5000 customers. Crews on scene.
@VenessaHunt Sone people are making that argument. 🙂
Damn! Power just restored!
@dancingman Saw that. We appear to be on reserve power now.
@randomknits @Gin_ev_ra Order placed! Emailed you guys.
@VenessaHunt Isn’t the fact that you’re promoting on Twitter going to massively skew the results? We’d be WAY more likely to use QR codes!
I think I’m going to make Compost Cookies for the Guild Meeting on Saturday. (paging @drkknits…)
@drkknits Not sure yet. Thinking choc chips, pretzels, chips, coffee, oats, what else? Bashed up Tim Tams to make them Aussie? 🙂
@gilmae She is a Baby Magnet!
@drkknits WHOA. I think I have some mini meringues in the pantry, if they’re not too stale!
@mrs_sockvictim Aww, I placed the order many hours ago. Sorry! (You can share my patterns though!)
RT @laimelde: All fans of @neilhimself, tix are onsale for Dec 28th in Sydney!! http://t.co/kA4fGTU6 // Just bought mine! (attn @kunaal84)
@laimelde Thanks!! I got Early Bird. I couldn’t see any qualifications on that, other than it being cheaper. Did I miss something??
@laimelde Nevermind! Just read Neil’s tweet. Wow, you got us in early! 🙂
@mpesce I thought so too, but weather man disagrees with us… 🙁
@drkknits Emailed you, you nitwit. 🙂
RT @Y7News: Former Aussie cricketer Andrew Symonds has a new gig. You’ll never guess what it is. http://t.co/UPDOeu9L // I guessed porn star
Best I’ve felt in 2+ weeks! So far ZERO cough drops consumed today. I think I’m finally getting rid of this thing…
@nolim1t Thanks Barry! I’m SO not a fashion blogger though. I look like a hipster clown most days. 🙂
@nolim1t True. But I have no idea about clothes, really. I’m just a narcissist. 😛
@FlavourCrusader @KathrynElliott Interesting article about women, feminism, and kitchens: http://t.co/llDH6jpd. Last paragraph is great!
@tomandlorenzo I think your RSS feed is broken! Last post that came through was BAFTA Red carpet 5 days ago…

@Yarna_ You positive? I’d buy them from you. (Never known anyone to give up Wollmeise before. You and @randomknits are crazy!)
@drkknits @Yarna_ @randomknits Requires 823 – 1326m. I’m tall with big runner’s calves. 🙂 http://t.co/LQ7nG1r3
@Yarna_ Okay, you’ve convinced me! Giant hot pink cabled knee socks it is. M&S on Thursday? 🙂

Red tights, red coat, red thoughts. http://t.co/GCIZQkTm
@bookchellef Surprisingly: Kumfs! Before they changed names. This was the only non-barfy style that season. 🙂
@jezfletcher Nah. I find pub w/ good food harder to find than pub w/ (some) decent beers. But beer range should factor in. (cc @the_snook)
@jezfletcher @the_snook Definitely. Should be “meat pies” or “pickled onions” or something like that. 🙂
@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitterjp This cool weather is at least letting us get some more wear out of our tights!
@drkknits @witty_knitter @knitterjp Yes, this “red” looks very different in daylight. Very pink against my red coat. Even Snook noticed.
@witty_knitter @drkknits @knitterjp I think we both just have plain red.
Dear friends: Thinking of ordering some stuff from colettepatterns.com. Anybody want to combine shipping?
@AusVintageGrrl Damn. 🙁 I’m going to get her book; it looks really good. I need general sewing instruction books more than you though!
@randomknits Cool! Send me an email and tell me what you want. 🙂
@randomknits Ooh, I was already going to get Chantilly. Is it possible to share patterns? (Not experienced enough to know!)

Okay, THAT pushed back the biological clock another few years. HORROR, people. I watched through fingers over my eyes.

Hell yeah. Chilli dogs and truffle fries with @drkknits. http://t.co/dKmHPiy7
Secret Santa! @drkknits and I ended up swapping. We both made TREES. http://t.co/st3Xb6Lv http://t.co/zyiZqyV1
I got a novelty knitted tree. The knitter didn’t like it, but I loved it! http://t.co/xaOUGP4z
@drkknits Oh sorry! I waited a bit but nobody came down so I ran to get on a bus. Cough is starting up now do I need to get home…
@drkknits Yes, super fun! Thanks for spending it with me – and for knitting The Most Awesome Tree Ever! 🙂
@the_snook What the– I don’t know who that is. How do YOU know who that is? Are you hipper than me?
Too many carbs… Coma approaching…
I was serious about carb coma. I’ve been asleep on the couch for an hour!
I don’t think even 2 skeins of Wollmeise is enough for Rhiannon. So don’t worry about it, @Yarna_! (cc @randomknits @drkknits)
