    @Opheli8 I have a vague feeling this has something to do with a sporting competition. That’s as much as I care to know.

    @drkknits So soft and warm looking! Lovely. 🙂

    The end of an annoying and stressful day. I’m not worried; it’ll all work out in the end. I hope.

    @anatyt @Opheli8 Wait! Burrito Day is back?? When?!

    @anatyt Poo! I’m not in GUG meeting anymore. (I escaped.) And I really need to punch things at Spudds… 🙁

    Hooray! @twitter finally fixed spelling of Australia on World Cup page: http://twitter.com/worldcup/aus. Now we fade back to irrelevance.

    Mysterious “heavy cylindrical object” received in the post this morning. Snook has it. Wonder what it is??

    @SG Ahhh, just noticed myself. Thanks for that! We aren’t going to achieve much this WC; at least we can be spelled correctly. 🙂

    Mysterious parcel no longer mysterious. A tin of “Barnes Castlemaine Rock” as a thank you from a fellow knitter. Thanks Sarah!

    HAHAHAHAHAHA!

  • GGR #8

    Geek Girl Runner episode 8 has been recorded… but it really sucks. I think I need to re-record. Basically, I put too much chili in my sloppy joes tonight and it lead to a major mucus issue. My first take ended up being ruined then by a serious coughing fit. Then my second take was ruined by the sound of me slurping on a cough drop and clearing my throat. Trust me; we’re ALL better off if I re-record. Hopefully tomorrow.

  • Timing.

    Dear Photon Group,
    I understand that you’re in a bit of financial strife. Really, I do. You guys have been partying like it’s 1999 for years now. You’ve got to make cuts, and I get that. But would it KILL YOU to tell your employees BEFORE a 3-day weekend that you’re shutting their whole company down? Because otherwise they might go off and do silly things like buy several thousand dollars’ worth of kitchen appliances. And then they come to work on a Tuesday and you tell everybody that they’re fired and that really, really sucks.

    No, the Snook isn’t actually fired. He’s one of the lucky few who gets to hang around for a few weeks and turn off the lights. They’ve said they’re going to try to find him another position in another Photon company. We’ll see. We’re not worried, but yeah, I might have hesitated on the goddamn oven if I’d known.

    Edited to add: A little bit of further clarification. I’ve since been told that there were extenuating circumstances that prevented the news from happening last week, not the least of which was an attempt at a last-minute bail-out. I can appreciate that. Regardless of how Mumbrella have spun my post, I didn’t really mean to complain about FH management who were doing their best. I was (and am) just worried for my partner and dismayed at the timing of the announcement.

    Happy birthday @imdominating! May all your R.Pattz dreams come true. 🙂

    @imdominating I think the rule is that as long as Facebook is telling people it’s your birthday, it’s your birthday.

    @sharre A friend of mine is using the Bang Bang Diet iPhone app. He likes it. I’m just tracking with WeightBot.
