Thinking of going to Costco tomorrow. Who’s been? Is it worth membership fee? Anybody want to take me as guest? @redambition @AusVintageGrrl
@redambition @ausvintagegrrl Ooh. If it’s refundable, I might go for it. We have ABN too so we can get $5 off on business membership. 🙂

Lunchtime run in the rain! Good pace. Ankle a little sore.

RunningBlog: Week 33
This week was an improvement! Sunday was the City2Surf, which is technically a 14km race. However, the Snook and I were scheduled for 17km on our training plan. So we actually ran a few extra km’s to the starting line just to get warmed up and make the distance. Monday I went to Spudds class after work, then did another on Wednesday at lunch time. I feel like my strength is starting to come back from being sick. Today I went for a lunchtime run (in some horrible winter Sydney weather) with my friend Raj. Good total for the week!
Aug 14: 18.15km
Aug 19: 5.56km
Total this week: 23.71km (14.8mi)
Total in 2011: 766.96 (479.4mi)To meet my goal of running 1200km in 2011, I should be at 761.5km right now. Still holding onto that 5km cushion!

@redambition Nah, it’s not on my actual eyeball. Right below my eye. Just a little cheloid scar that I scratched while scrubbing my face.
@nolim1t Thanks! @kunaal84 and I managed to get in. Will let the others know about the waitlist. 🙂
Time to be a grown-up – another fancy-pants off-site client meeting! Wish me luck…
@randomknits Did you say Calico & Ivy has a bias binding maker thingy?
@randomknits Because according to Lincraft’s site, theirs costs $119.
@drkknits THAT’S JUST THE BOX! We want to see the SHOES.
@drkknits OH! I did a double-take. Very cute. 🙂

@randomknits Lincraft’s is some sort of “machine.” I might need to run to Balmain this weekend, sounds like!
@msgusset Yeah, I’ve researched it. I’m just trying to go for the lazier option first. 🙂
@knitabulous Ooh, that’s one we haven’t done yet! Tips?
@knitabulous Hahaha… I meant for the cauliflower bake. 🙂
@knittydotcom I’m with you. Instead I just get 50 scattered wiry grey hairs that stick up straight off my head. Not nearly as nice.
@AusVintageGrrl HOLY GOD, NOT WHAT I NEEDED TO SEE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

It’s funny how helpful people suddenly become when they realise no one thinks they’re indispensible anymore.
@knitabulous Bonus points for HIPSTER black frames!
@chrisgander Your cards are… vertical? That’s different.
@witty_knitter Just noticed a certain name popping up quite a bit on my recent Google searches: http://t.co/5ESLPG8. Imagine yours is same.
@witty_knitter You’re actually ranked higher than me on the search…
@witty_knitter According to Analytics, I had 43 hits from it in the past month. Only slightly more than effing graffiti knitting. 😀
Think I need to get those blood tests after all. Lymph nodes definitely still swollen. I REALLY don’t want to have glandular fever…
Scratched my eye, bloodied my finger, and failed to get a blood test. Stellar start to the morning.

- Ask a Korean! Wiki: Mixed Koreans? – Wow. This is fascinating. I had no idea about the discrimination in the 50’s. I’ll have to ask my grandma if she (and my Mom, who was a baby) faced any of that.
