F21 Thread Screen – This is super cool. Be sure to watch the “behind the scenes” video so you can see how it works. It took me a while to work out that each “spool” is actually one end of a long rotor belt of “threaded fabric” that turns so the correct colour displays. You can send your own Instagram photo by tagging it with #F21ThreadScreen. (I sent mine this morning but it hasn’t shown up yet. Not sure how long a backlog they’ve got!)

It’s Formal Friday at work, so I (naturally) busted out my prom dress. It’s almost 20 years old, and I keep finding excuses to wear it!

@stephenlead Actually that sounds good!
@tommuseth That just made me drool a little.
@miftik See, when there are too many flavours, then we’re verging on Wonka’s 3 Course Chewing Gum. And we all know how that ended.
@Charlie__Gerard Awesome. Can’t wait to see the talk that comes out of that! 🙂
@Charlie__Gerard Are you coming to Girl Geeks next week? Bring it!

@conniecodes I was tempted, but I’m not a hiring manager so didn’t want to take the spot of somebody offering real jobs!
@RoseRed_Shoes Nooooo. I’m collecting my vintage rocking chair on the weekend. One extravagance at a time. 🙂
@steven_noble Do you mean specifically the box with the question mark in it?
@steven_noble In my house we call it “that damn glyph that keeps plaguing my Twitter-to-blog import script because MySQL sucks.”

OH HELL YES. I may have spent the night researching how to DIY my own Chun Li costume. (Still undecided if I’ll do it or not…)

ARGH. Does my desire for free gelato outweigh my dislike for Uber?!

Century Egg
For lunch today we had mapo tofu, rice noodles, pork floss, and century eggs. I’d never eaten a century egg before. It looked horrible. But everybody else was taking them, so I decided to be brave. My colleague Nic said that they just taste like normal hardboiled eggs. So I closed my eyes and tried it. And he’s right! It just tasted like a normal egg, albeit one with a slightly weird texture. But man, they look unnatural. I kind of can’t stop thinking about it.

I had The Smiths stuck in my head on loop ALL DAY. I can’t get rid of it. Is this a sign of mental illness? Is T.Swift the solution?
