Dude. Bieber’s “First Dance” is a surprisingly dirty song, right? Or is that just me?
Most expensive lipstick I’ve ever bought in my life, but I love it. @ David Jones http://instagr.am/p/B8b9j/
@redambition I couldn’t wait. Went to DJ’s after work. Red was intimidating at first, but it actually looks GOOD on me!
MAC Wonder Woman lippie in Matte Russian Red. It’s all @redambition’s fault.
@redambition Haha… Sure thing. 🙂
@kunaal84 That actually made me hesitate! 🙂
@Glompbot @redambition Yep! Google “MAC wonder woman.” Also gloss, mascara, liner, compacts, etc all in awesome WW packaging!!
Haters gonna hate, but Snook and I are definitely getting the new iPad.
RT @gilmae: Today, we are all Irish. // Heh. I’ll jump on that bandwagon.
@gilmae Yep. Snook’s laptop died & we decided 1 laptop (mine) and 1 iPad2 were cheaper given our usage. Plus: SHINY and TOMORROW.
@richbuggy Why would you ever pity someone who can afford to buy something that makes them happy? Odd attitude.
@richbuggy Ah, well then you’re just being willfully ignorant. I didn’t buy the 1st iPad as didn’t need it. Also didn’t buy new MacBook Pro.
@richbuggy But – you successfully trolled, so I guess you get +10 anti-apple points? I hear you can buy a “Xoom” with them.
@miftik I wanted the first one, but couldn’t justify it. Now that Snook’s laptop is dead, we finally have a need for one!
Just freaked out @seanchadwick when he realised I was wearing lipstick. “YOU CAN’T JUST DO THAT!” #bizarroworld

@randomknits I don’t know about hexagons, but I made a quilt by hand without much experience. You can do it! http://bit.ly/iiqmqE
I just ordered a ukelele off Amazon. I blame @amandapalmer. Now I have to figure out how to play it!
@thisismywww http://amzn.to/hCygE3 That one! It was free since I had some gift certs. 🙂
The Snook is mocking me as a ukelele-playing, retro-dress-wearing hipster. Sadly, it’s true. Next on the list: FIXIE! (Just kidding.)
@gilmae Ha! Found you on there. Followed.
@Roceal Ooh, thanks for that! Will bookmark for when it gets here. 🙂
The Snook has just pointed out that I’ve been spelling ukulele wrong “on the twitters.” DAMN HIPSTER PEDANT.
@redambition So how much is the perfect red lippie going to cost me, and where do I get it?
@redambition Ah, but I can’t judge these things on my own. I have terrible colour sense! When are you in the city next? 🙂
@redambition Crap. Getting my hair cut Thurs at 6. Before/after AGM, maybe?
@venks79 Good luck!!!
Do other people get calls from head hunters to their work number? That seems super inappropriate to me.

Compression Garments
Here’s an excellent round-up of scientific research on compression garments. The consensus seems to be that there’s little evidence they help athletic performance, but they may aid in recovery. Huh. Maybe I’ll save my SKINS for after my next long run…

@imdominating So hang on. Do the actual awards not start for another 30 minute? I can’t figure it out.
With 4 awards to go… Oscar Contest is currently a 25-way tie for first. #fml
@betsybookworm I have a tiebreaker, thankfully… Hopefully won’t need it! COME ON, UPSET.
CRAP, it’s the dead people montage! I hope you’re all counting for me.
@knitterjp Excellent. @imdominating concurs. @miftik?
@miftik Thanks! 41 is definitely the consensus.
Uh oh. General crappy feeling has given way to sinus congestion. Am I getting my usual training-induced bout of sickness?
@witty_knitter @monnsqueak I took some Zyrtec and I think I’m feeling better. Hoping it was just an allergy attack…
Dear @kunaal84. I saved you the BIEBER-TASTIC episode of Glee from last night. You’re welcome. 🙂

Oscar Contest Winner
Congratulations to John M. who was the big winner in this year’s Oscar Contest! John actually finished in a 4-way tie for first place with Andy Saur, Anita Hoffman Ehrenfried, and Eloise. It came down to the tiebreaker, which was 41 dead people. Anita had 38, but John took the prize with his guess of “42 1/2”. (I’ll admit the fraction cracked me up.) Congratulations, John! Your Black Swan and White Swan sock monkeys will soon be on their way to you. And thanks to everyone else for playing. See you next year!
I was thrilled to see that John actually put in his entry on the very first day, which I’m hoping indicates he’s a regular entrant or a friend-of-a-friend.
Update: Just checked the records. This is John’s FOURTH year entering and his first victory!
