    @drkknits @crikey_news It certainly looks like it! ๐Ÿ™‚


    @witty_knitter It’s my “Bollywood” getup from knitting camp (worn with St. Brigid because it was COLD). ๐Ÿ™‚


    @witty_knitter HAHAHAHAHA… Actually that’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages. I love the 3D viewer. SERIOUS ANTI-CAMEL TOE TECHNOLOGY!


    Dear @imdominating & @carbolicious: I found your Christmas presents for next year. http://bit.ly/fkVhSi You can thank me later.


    @mrs_sockvictim Hmmm, YOUR birthday is coming up pretty soon…! ๐Ÿ™‚


    Sydney folks: I’m going to be running 42K this Sunday and I could use some running partners for parts of it. Anybody up for a jog?


    @MiscMarci Sometimes being a responsible pet owner is knowing when to stop. Pet’s quality of life should be first concern. Do what is best.

  • The 10 Worst States to be a Woman

    The 10 Worst States to be a Woman. Indiana is #4.

    Desperately looking for a replacement bottle for a Nike Water Belt. This is my last ditch “hail-mary” to find one before I give up and buy a FuelBelt instead.

    My belt looks like this: http://images.nike.com/is/image/DotCom/PDP_P/Nike-Hydration-%28Size-1%29-Belt-9038002_031_A.png. One of the bottles popped off on a long run and I never found it again. I have been trying to find a replacement for AGES. I cannot fin…

  • MLK Mural Refurbishment

    Oh, nice! Last weekend I noticed some work being done on the Martin Luther King mural in Newtown. People seemed to be scraping away the paint, and I was sad thinking it was being removed. Turns out it’s actually being fixed up after being damaged in a fire. That’s awesome!

    @drkknits @witty_knitter BIEBER, I mean. Maybe academics don’t have their brains rot out of their heads so quickly. ๐Ÿ™‚

    @knitabulous Way to go! 5K is a great milestone.


    Ran 12K, then a hot shower, then FaceTime with my lovely Mom, then lunch, then Game of Thrones, and now heading for a massage. #sundaywin
