    Two weeks from tomorrow, I’ll join a panel of amazing women from @awscloud Germany to talk about how you can chart a career in cloud computing. We’d love to have you join us!

    (And fun trivia – “Servus” is how you say hello in Bavaria, where I live. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ)

    @ASpittel That sucks. Hang in there. ๐Ÿ™


    Hey Aussies! This one’s happening on Wednesday. โค๏ธ https://t.co/Qr9rn57qNg


    @pgarbe I donโ€™t hear many folks in Munich say it for goodbye though. Ciao seems much more common!


    When @dnsmichi turns up at the same meetup, you have to eat Dragee Keksi! (Apologies to @FrankPrechtel and the other AWS Nรผrnberg attendees for not sharing…) ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿช https://t.co/EqNdwW4HDM


    @dnsmichi @FrankPrechtel Now I need to learn how to say “I’m ruining my dinner” auf Deutsch. “Ich ruiniere mein Abendessen” ?


    Todayโ€™s German lesson was about propositions that can take either accusative or dative case, depending on the verb. So Iโ€™ve been walking around all day muttering things like โ€œIch gehe *ins* Bett, aber ich liege *im* Bett.โ€ ๐Ÿค“


    @lynnlangit I literally recited that this morning! Itโ€™s been stuck in my head for 25 years. ๐Ÿ˜‚ (Those are the always-dative ones, so theyโ€™re easier than these tricky bastards that change depending on movement.)

    King Ludwig II of Bavaria died 135 years ago *today*, so we decided to visit his island palace at Herrenchiemsee. He wanted his own version of Versailles, and it was truly amazing. (Unfortunately no photos allowed inside, but it was like Baroque and Rococo fever dream!) ๐Ÿฐโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ https://t.co/spYOtVEn5v


    I take this guy to a Turkish restaurant for a change, and he still orders SPARGEL! ๐Ÿ˜‚ #spargelzeit @ Restaurant Abant l Cafรฉ – Bar – Holzofenpizza https://t.co/wN44skuYL7


    One of my dearest friends is expecting. Knitters – what would you make for literally the greatest baby the world has ever seen?

    This is fascinating. Yesterday was Loving Day, celebrating the Supreme Court victory in 1967 that struck down anti-miscegenation laws across the US. I wasnโ€™t aware that seven states also included Asians in their laws. Thankfully Indiana was not one of them (though itโ€™s not like the state was especially progressive; they had the law preventing blacks and whites from marrying until โ€˜67). I have even more respect for my amazing grandparents, and for my Korean grandmother moving to a country where her marriage wasnโ€™t legally recognised everywhere. โค๏ธ #LovingDay

    10 years ago I ran my first and only marathon in the pouring rain. Still one of the best days ever. โค๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

    One of these days Iโ€™m going to organise a full Fiber Arts + Tech conference, I swear. Thereโ€™s a lot of usโ€ฆ ๐Ÿงถ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿชก https://t.co/ht7cVisiJi


    @anaskhattar Awesome! I once made a light up cushion for the first @canva hackathon. โค๏ธ https://t.co/cjWl5zIsRF


    RT @Vel12171: So you’re an AWS Developer Advocate? Hear what my typical day as DevRel looks like. Ask if any other questions #aws #devrel #โ€ฆ


    @deniseyu21 IIRC there have been a few attempts over the years but I’m already in a zillion Slacks so I confess I’ve dropped off all the crafty ones. There are also some groups on Ravelry, for the knitters/crocheters… ๐Ÿ™‚


    @lynnlangit BWAHAHAHAHA… caught that out of the corner of my eye. ๐Ÿ˜‚โค๏ธ


    Honestly couldnโ€™t be prouder. ๐Ÿค (I donโ€™t have kids so I have to find these feelings of accomplishment wherever I can!) #reissverschluss #zipper #darlowpants https://t.co/ds4XiD7qGC
