    Feeling decidedly weird, clammy, and pukey. Really hope I’m not getting what @lemon_lime has had!


    “There’s no future in hard-coding business rules in procedural code.” Amen. #iiba


    @bellsknits I can’t see the point of locking, unless the person needs total anonymity (like Witness Protection, but they shouldn’t tweet!)


    @toastman Heh. Not going to ask that. Presenter is a Texan, and I think he’d glare at me.


    This seminar has quite a few Hermiones. I am trying not to yell out “10 points from Gryffindor for being a favour-currying swot!”


    @kunaal84 THIS Hermione would never interrupt a speaker who had 35+ slides to get through in 60min, just to show off with a lame anecdote!


    @steven_noble Or did you inadvertently lock it in portrait?


    Bookmarking the Ars Technical review of OS X Lion for later… http://arstechnica.com/apple/reviews/2011/07/mac-os-x-10-7.ars


    @steven_noble Double-click home, then swipe left in the tray. There’s an “orientation lock.”


    @steven_noble If it’s on, you should see a little arrow-circle thing in the upper right corner of your screen, btw.


    @steven_noble Damn. That was my best guess! Now you’ve made me wary of updating mine…

    Kristine Howard was at Sydney Masonic Centre.


    Heh. We wondered the same thing when we saw the stupid commercial.


  • Mushrooms

    Fantastic photos from an Australian mushroom farm in a disused railway tunnel in Goulbourn. I wonder if that’s where the “Fun Guy” at Eveleigh Markets gets them?

    @carbolicious @imdominating NOW WHO’S READY TO BE DISTURBED? http://on.io9.com/otDE83


    In every way that yesterday sucked, today has rocked. Finally got my bearings, and I am kicking some serious ass. #patsselfonback

    Sitting in front of heater, feet propped up, crocheting away on afghan on my lap. When did I become my mother, and why do I LIKE it so much?


    RT @andrewsayer: Google Plus iPhone app is now available in the iTunes Store. // http://bit.ly/ouqXV9 Just got it myself!


    Rain. Buses all full. Took 10+ minutes to finally get one! Going to be late…


    @lemon_lime Seems good for 1st release. My stream has lots of folks trying it out. Photos and Huddle are great.

    @carbolicious @imdominating “Hot Neville” is now officially A Thing. http://gofugyourself.com/potterfugia-hot-neville-07-2011


    Just trying to keep my head above water, and feeling like I’m failing…


    I wouldn’t have thought that a pot roast could cure a bad day, but this one sure did: http://bit.ly/pActCY Best sauce EVER.


    @drkknits You are inadvertently spoiling me! Because now I learn the fucker stays alive a lot longer. 🙁

    New Docs! They are gloriously ugly and comfortable. Exactly what I wanted. http://instagr.am/p/H2ttJ/


    @fictillius Huh. I also feel like I say that a LOT.


    @witty_knitter My taste in shoes indicates that I was a Scandinavian lesbian in a former life, I think. 🙂


    Knitters: looking for Shadow Tweed so my Purple People Eater Afghan can get bigger. Got at Camp last year. Anyone? http://twitpic.com/5rim9l


    Blood donation FAIL! Was going to give plasma for 1st time, but couldn’t get decent vein in either arm. Will try again in a couple weeks. 🙁

    Fantastic – Magic Mile in 9:24! Great considering my ankle still isn’t 100%.
