    @imdominating Wooo! Wishing I was there. Hey, any place in Chicago showing The Hobbit in the 48fps high def? On say, the 30th? 🙂

    @drkknits Oh FFS. @lemon_lime, can you add Dr for the precious phd? 😛

    @drkknits And your member number is probably on the IC membership list…

    @3rd_Gen_ Ooh, funky print! Nice job.

    @randomknits I would say “TOTES RANDOM.” 😛

    @randomknits That’s where I first met the Sock Victim! I think it was crowded, eh, @mrs_sockvictim?

    Gave my GGD talk again tonight at work, then spent way too long at the pub celebrating. Self: you are not 25 anymore.

    @mrs_sockvictim @randomknits What the what? Seriously? Because I know nothing about that. 😛

    @mrs_sockvictim Btw – planning on Eveleigh Markets tomorrow around 8-8:30ish. You?

    @pixel8ted Huzzah!

    @AusVintageGrrl Congrats to you and @thisismywww!

    Went to markets, took cat to vet… Now I’m pooped and it isn’t even 10am.

    @3rd_Gen_ What? What’s wrong with how we say cauliflower? I don’t think I say it any different from the Aussies?

    @3rd_Gen_ Ahh, in my head that sounds a bit more southern. Where was the person from? I’m Midwestern, and I say “collifflower”

    Attention @drkknits and @mrs_sockvictim – some very cool art on @TempleWebster today from Inaluxe – including birds and cats and OWLS!

    @marcooda Interesting – thanks for that! I get overwhelmed by the choice though. I like that T&W seems to curate a smaller list.

    RT @senthorun: Fab post by @oiiaustralia on how to be an #intersex ally. Must read. http://t.co/bP426giG

    RT @Salon: If you care about America, don’t shop at @walmart http://t.co/v2EWtZtP via @RBReich

    @drkknits Well, since I’m TOTES BOOKED UP this weekend, how about before/after the High Tea next weekend?

    @lemon_lime @drkknits DO YOU WANT TO WATCH TWILIGHT WITH US, JOSH?!

    @drkknits We could meet @lemon_lime after work on 30th, then go to movie, then you crash at my place!

    @zephyrama Pics or it didn’t happen.

    @drkknits @lemon_lime It’s ON like DONKEY KONG.

    @bookchellef They are mostly disappointing. Ours was somehow less than the sum of its parts.

    @bookchellef Actually, Serious Eats undertook the task of making an actually good one recently: http://t.co/C5nX4zCV. Involves sous vide!

    Don’t be passive-aggressive. Don’t be passive-aggressive. Don’t be passive-aggressive.

    @ericscheid Snarky retorts aren’t helping my willpower when I’m trying to take the high moral ground, mister! 🙂

    Seeing the sports physician about my knee. Again. (@ The Sports Clinic) http://t.co/Z9YLvJ1t

    I am quite literally ready to explode. (Doc stuck a nitroglycerin patch on my knee.)

    @witty_knitter Supposed to promote blood flow. There’s some research that says it might help with tendinitis. We’re clutching at straws. 🙁

    @brown_note Currently or historically? Helping slaves escape on the Underground Railroad comes to mind.

    Successfully videochatted with my Dad and Step-Mom for the first time ever. I think Dad is convinced he needs a smartphone now. 🙂

  • Fitbit

    I’m jumping back on the “Quantified Self” bandwagon. I just ordered myself a Fitbit One for Christmas. Hopefully this will be the inspiration to put this year of injury behind me and get back into the swing of things!

  • Trotify

    Trotify – a mechanical wooden device that clips to your bike’s front wheel and makes it clop like a horse. It involves a coconut.

    You know, the other day on MetaFilter somebody defined a hipster as “someone younger than you having more fun and often wearing a silly hat at the same time”. That’s what this makes me think of.

    Happy Thanksgiving! I made pumpkin bread. Sadly, it's a bit uncooked in the middle but I think my coworkers will eat it up anyway. :)

    @drkknits Is that tie-dye I see before me?

    @drkknits I’ve been taping mine to the sliding door and doing them that way!

    @imdominating If it wasn’t just Rodd and me, I’d so be tempted to make one.

    RT @GGDSydney: Grats goes to @rowdyrabbit and @web_goddess our comp winners! We hope you have a great time at #yow2012 courtesy of @yow_oz!

    @drkknits You are making me so jealous. Why am I stuck at work when I could be sewing? GAHHH.

    @knitterjp @smithcdau Brilliant. Would love to meet him if we cross paths. I’m looking forward to the morning’s agile topics!

    @knitterjp @drkknits Hitting it with the iron was the funnest part of the Washi Dress. Magically started pulling WAY in!

    @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Also for loaning to other people! *cough cough*

    Every other bus driver takes 45 min to get through CBD. This guy is flying through in under 20. I think I love you, Mr Bus Driver.

    @goshling I hope so. He was challenging the very laws of the universe.

    @goshling Meetup? Quite possibly. Where/when?

    @goshling Oh right. That’s what I get for only reading MeFi through Flipboard these days…

    @goshling Commented, and suggested a venue! Slightly self serving in that it’s 3 blocks from my house, but it’s also legitimately nice. 🙂

    RT @codepo8: Slayer Christmas Sweater http://t.co/nSURU3Xp // I am totes knitting that for the Sydney Royal Easter Show.

    @mpesce @stufromoz @kcarruthers @jcmurty Pumpkin is being prepped at my house too. Chippendale feels very festive. 🙂

    @goshling Ah, yeah, Manly’s a pain. What are you guys doing, work? I work in the Rocks so if you’re nearby could meet for lunch.

    @toastman I just hate the train. Ideally I’d ride my bike, but my knee’s still screwed.

    @randomknits Go for it. Super cute!

    Happy Thanksgiving! I made pumpkin bread. Sadly, it’s a bit uncooked in the middle but I think my coworkers http://t.co/c5TQDsSi

    @mrs_sockvictim @drkknits Mine don’t bring in dead animals. 😛

    @drkknits Hoochie. (That’s my new “You’re terrible, Muriel” JUST FOR YOU.)

    @drkknits Oh, I’m not claiming moral high ground here. Just being silly. 🙂

    @mrs_sockvictim @drkknits I am taking a new attitude towards leggings: I don’t understand it, and I won’t acknowledge it. #lucille

    @RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits @mrs_sockvictim *wink*

    Not Acknowledging all over the damn place. What I am acknowledging is the excellent pumpkin bread I baked for the office. Nomnomnom…

  • Audit My Joomla

    Audit My Joomla – Looks like a very useful service for anybody running a Joomla site, which tend to attract hack attempts. I should probably run this on, uh, a particular site I maintain.
