@drkknits OOH, nice!

FFS Facebook. Why am I still getting push notifications about people checking places? I have that TURNED OFF. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THEM.

Holy crap. Paper piecing has defeated me in a way that rarely happens. It feels like 7th grade algebra.

@glittertrash DPNs are so annoying. I never use ’em. I always do the two-circulars method for everything!

---

@glittertrash It can do any size tube: thumbs, socks, sleeves, hats, you name it. Google “socks on two circulars”. That’s how I learned.

---

@glittertrash There’s also the “Magic Loop” technique, which is very similar but just uses one long circ.

---

@konterkariert @joshprice @nolim1t But I love my Toodledo already. Is Clear’s UI really worth switching?

---

@konterkariert But I’m a To Do list power user. Usually have 100+ items in several cats and sub-projects. I don’t think Clear supports that.

---

Why aren’t there native OSX ports of Dia and Gimp? I like them, but god they’re ugly in X11. I’d pay for nicer versions.

---

@henrytapia But I’d pay! There’s gotta be a business opportunity there. @the_snook thinks it’s rather a technical limitation.

---

@that_alison Heh. I don’t knit ’em; I sew them from pre-made socks. But regardless – no way. 😀

Watching Whirlpool discussion about Internet outage and laughing at geeks losing their shit. (Confession: I miss Facebook already.)

---

@gilmae The whole internets was broken for a lot of Australia for the past hour or so: http://t.co/IojLtPET. Not for you?

---

Internet seems to be working again, both on my iPhone (Telstra) and in the office (iiNet). Phew. Crisis averted.

@imdominating I am somewhat hoping they bring me a big birthday HORSE HEART to gnaw on dramatically.

@blakkat They just keep bringing things around to your table. You don’t even have to get up! It’s awesome.

---

@blakkat When I was there, they gave you a little red/green disc you could flip to indicate if you wanted food or a break. 🙂

---

@blakkat The one on William Street. They’re very trendy now. Also been to Wildfire at Circ Quay years ago, and Ola Rio in Chippo recently.

---

@jenbishopsydney Lovely! You must thank yourself. 🙂

Baking PB cookies in a shameless attempt to make my new co-workers like me… http://t.co/SqOX28mL

---

@codepo8 I get them too (but for $75 AUD). I just bin ’em. I can’t be bothered.

---

Hey @lemon_lime: This is so for you. Banana Republic’s new Mad Men collection: http://t.co/qykppCpd

---

@lemon_lime Seriously, I could see you wearing (and working the hell out of) that dude’s exact outfit.

---

@Gin_ev_ra http://t.co/WyjLaogw is useful in these cases. 🙂

---

@imdominating Awesome. I wish it got cold enough here to wear big warm stompy boots.

---

The cookies went over very well. 🙂

---

Ate a tiny bit of birthday cake out of social obligation. It was awesome. Now counting down til the sugar crash…

---

@witty_knitter YOU’VE AWAKENED THE BEAST! (The last time I mentioned the s-word in a tweet, I got followed a lot of Those People. *shudder*)

---

@chrisgander So wait, are you inviting current employees too? Then you should add @kunaal84 and @rajsingh2505. 🙂

---

@chrisgander Oh wait, it’s on the 16th? I don’t think I can make it then. That’s my birthday weekend…

---

@chrisgander We’re definitely going out Saturday night. But may end up doing something Friday too. I’ve put “maybe” for now.

---

@Kat13v @witty_knitter The day I make a living by selling $14 novelty hole punches is the day I jump off the Harbour Bridge.

@heathergracious Ooh. I am very, very tempted.

@heathergracious Guy next to me had those. They looked good too!

@kcarruthers I switched to Telstra from Optus & I’m very happy. Asked them to match old Optus plan and they gave me unadvertised deal!

Planning to bake cookies for my coworkers tomorrow. On a related note, somewhere in India @kunaal84 is weeping…

@drkknits Aren’t you supposed to be doing something with dogs?
