    Just completed a 6.01 km run with RunKeeper – Nice easy run on a wet and chilly morning. Felt great though.

    • The sick genius of The Amazing Race – Amusing. Although to be fair, I took the Norway quote as a bit of a joke. She’d just climbed halfway up a mountain lugging two 40lb fish on her back. I’d tell the guy he’s silly to live up there too!
  • Mr Sulu calls out anti-gay douchebaggery

    Mr Sulu calls out anti-gay douchebaggery. No, really. It’s awesome. George Takei is the new Betty White, I tell you.

  • Eric Northman and Lady Gaga

    Am I the only one that just realised that Eric Northman is in Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi video? How random.

    @misswired I am a massive fan of Toodledo.com. Syncs across all browsers and has lots of ways to connect. Both free and pro accounts.


    RT @SBSNews: BREAKING NEWS: Tea Party candidate Christine O’Donnell defeated in Delaware senate seat… // Some small consolation there!


    Recent Roald Dahl Biography is $35 at Dymocks. It’s $34.99 on iBooks. WHY would anyone buy the electronic version for the same price?!


    @mpesce I had my swearing in a few years ago at Town Hall. It was fun! Got my picture taken with Clover and everything. http://bit.ly/dAAU2e


    It’s really fun reading a requirements doc for a client pitch and recognising one of your friends on the internal distribution list… 🙂


    I ordered my Dahl biography from Amazon. Even with int’l shipping, it was still cheaper than Dymocks or AU iBooks.


    @kunaal84 Good luck! Save some for the race… 🙂


    @Diepdin BD is less than I can get it here, but still more than Amazon (considering I had Amazon credit thanks to my Dahl site). 🙂


    @DianneKing Yep… But no Kindle. Not sure US version would work here anyway! I collect Dahl so I was always after the hardcover, really.


    Yay! My dresses from Heartbreaker have arrived, and they are SO PRETTY. Lunchtime fashion show may be needed! (cc @that_alison)

    Like @ebertchicago, I remember. http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/politics/i-remember.html (My absentee ballot was sent many weeks ago.)


    I got Shocking on the office sweep. Just the one I wanted! (The jockey’s name is Rodd.)


    I just ousted Misha as the mayor of Sushi Hero II on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/6NKhVx


    Rockin’ the hipster fedora for Melbourne Cup. http://instagr.am/p/IF5e/


    @chrisgander http://www.inquisitr.com/88982/watch-the-melbourne-cup-live-online-2/ lists a couple…


    Okay, so the 2nd person has referred to my fedora as “Michael Jackson.” I may have to remove it.


    Jockey Rodd let me DOWN!


    Heard in the office: “I would’ve been better off putting the money into US dollars instead of the stupid horses.” Seriously.


    The exchange rate has me thinkin’. Where do we think I can get brooklyntweed’s Shelter yarn for the cheapest international shipping?


    @randomknits Ah, but Knit-Purl are free for international orders over $300. Just need to get a few other people… 🙂
