I got my hair cut on Sunday… with a fringe. (For the Americans, fringe = bangs.) I haven’t had a fringe since grade school. The Snook thinks it makes me look like my niece Indie.

SQUIRRELS!
What the–?! According to Alysha, the pet store at Birkenhead Point is actually selling SQUIRRELS as pets. This blows my mind for several reasons.
- I have never, ever seen a squirrel in Australia. They are certainly not native, and I’ve never seen a feral one either. I would’ve thought they were illegal. Like hamsters.
- In the U.S. squirrels are, of course, very common. Yet I’ve never heard of anyone keeping one as a pet in a cage. That seems kind of cruel and pointless.
- They’re $1200+ each?!?!
I kinda want to visit the store now just to see them myself for the novelty factor.

My hand friggin’ hurts. You know, the one I took a chunk out of when I crashed onto the pavement this morning. 🙁
@drkknits Yep. Sign me up for Remedial Walking. It should be conducted in a swimming pool so I don’t further injure myself re-learning.
Whipped up an 18-page spec on very short notice. @VenessaHunt is going to be my best friend now. 🙂

Sharing pumpkin pie at work. My Monday is improving.
@imdominating I once watched Mansfield Park TWICE on the same plane flight just to see JLM in period costume.
Any QA people looking for work? We have a position going. DM me if you’re interested.
I hate storms! Poor cats are hiding. They do too.
Anybody have Vogue Knitting Winter 2009/2010? http://bit.ly/9OVXvm My conquest of the Easter Show depends on it!
@miss_reecie Sweet! Can you look up something for me? Making hipster cardy for Snook. What are the sizes? http://bit.ly/9G9JlK
@miss_reecie So that’s the finished size? With garment closed?
@miss_reecie Thank you! I’d love to borrow it on Saturday if you’ll loan it to me. 🙂
About to order $760 worth of Brooklyn Tween wool from the U.S. *gulp* No, it’s not all for me…
@mirvettium 62 all up. Not all in the Brooklyn Tweed; a couple other randoms in there too. Big joint order for 5 people in total. 🙂
@jenbishopsydney Great job! What are you doing that’s working so well?
@witty_knitter Whoa! It’s like an episode of House or something.
We have hired a new “Chris” in the office who sits 15 feet from me. This is going to be trouble. I keep hearing my name and looking up.

Just completed a 6.07 km run with RunKeeper – Stacked it! Skinned my knee, hand. Still finished though…
