    I have been in a cake coma all evening. Nothing got done. “SNOOKUMS, THE CAKE MADE ME SAD. WHY DOES IT HURT MY BELLY?” He is unsympathetic.

    @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp @mrs_sockvictim Ah, we were there on Thursday night. Doing some feline-related IKEA hacking right now!


    @kristinrohan Thank you! Just rang them for a quote. 🙂


    Finally – the kitchen is DONE! Before: http://t.co/evYntf1P Concept: http://t.co/PxKKWo7o Finished: http://t.co/Z9LlTpTE


    @Alegrya It’s happened so slowly it’s hard to remember what a big transformation it is! But yes, very happy in the end. 🙂


    It’s really happening, @RoseRed_Shoes. Components are ready to be assembled in the morning! http://t.co/YCcnIFBK


    Testing it out before Mom’s visit! Japchae and mandu to start… (@ Paju BBQ Korean Restaurant) [pic]: http://t.co/GNDtAEWu


    Dolsot bibimbap FTW. I wish you could hear the sound it makes! @ Paju BBQ Korean Restaurant http://t.co/8IOi7Wvb


    Good ol’ fashioned American banana pudding chilling in the fridge. Man, it tastes REALLY sweet. Has Australia changed my taste buds?

    That’s it folks – THE KITCHEN IS DONE! From April 10 it took nearly 2.5 months to finish completely. I’m 95% happy with everything, but there are a few bits we might change up after we’ve used for a while. (The main one is the faucet.) Thanks for listening to me whinge about it!


    Dolsot bibimbap FTW. I wish you could hear the sound it makes!

    @3rd_Gen_ Yeah, that’s a good way to look at it. I’ve still got three, which is more than a lot of folks. I need to call them more. 🙂


    Email from student: “I’m writing a paper on Dahl’s contribution to children’s lit. Can you spell it all out for me? And it’s due in 2 days.”


    @witty_knitter I told her I wrote one on the same topic in uni, and it took a lot longer than 2 days and no, I wouldn’t send it to her. 🙂


    @witty_knitter @zephyrama @handmethepanda Did I mention it was from a YEAR 12 STUDENT? *rolls eyes* The mind boggles.


    Hm. Will have to make a trip to Lincraft on the way home for a ZIPPER if I’m going to wear my cardigan to a CERTAIN SOCIAL EVENT on Sunday.


    @Soma377 DONKEGIN. Did we discuss how effed up it is that I live, you know, where that movie was from? Except not, really.


    @RoseRed_Shoes @knitterjp Seriously. I got tired last week replacing like 350ml of blood. A whole person? I don’t know how you’re conscious.


    @drkknits They sell all kinds of crap I wouldn’t wear. 😛


    @drkknits Lucky for you, I can chalk this whole button-mania up to some sort of VIRAL INDUCED DELIRIUM.


    @drkknits I mean, am I also wearing a small triangle shawl in this fantasy of yours? Because that ain’t happening either, sister!


    Three cheers for hand-knit cardigans with zippers! (Suck it @drkknits.) http://t.co/KsOiYiWy


    Hey @andrewvalder, your Twitter has been hacked. You just sent me the “terrible rumors” DM. Change your password!


    @mrs_sockvictim No way. Ain’t delicate. It’s all TWEEDY!


    This has been kind of a crap week. Kinda hoping it’s gonna balance out soon. (Beer helps.)


    @Opheli8 IT’S DONE! Need to do a final documentation this weekend. So that’s a good thing, definitely. 🙂


    @RoseRed_Shoes @mrs_sockvictim They’re not dolls. They’re badass SKELETONS.


    RT @DanielleWarby: REALLY interesting look at sports sponsorship: Sarah Robles (@roblympian), USA’s Strongest Woman & Body Image Act …


    Can anybody in the Inner West recommend a good carpet cleaner? Otherwise I’m gonna pick one totally at random…

    Yoko is #40 on RS’s list of “Women Who Rock”. Unfortunately Spotify doesn’t have the album “Walking on Thin Ice”, so I settled for just listening to all the Yoko they had. To my surprise, I found myself loving this album. (Artists were invited a select a song from Yoko’s back catalog and then do a remix.) I starred like 5 songs on it! “Revelations”, in particular, was exactly what I needed to hear right now.
