Despite being self-employed and working from home, I will show solidarity with the misery in my timeline by getting up and working tomorrow.
@stillawake Cool. Also: “If at first you don’t succeed, that’s one data point.”
@stillawake Is there an XKCD reader app for Windows Phone? There’s one for iOS that shows you the title text.
@hayles Excellent. I often only hear about the first sequel when numbers three or four come along…
@hayles Cool. (Has there been a sequel? I’ve only seen the original…)
@hayles Is that a Monsters, Inc. thang?
@hayles I was kinda thinking that.
@hayles I just got there, too. First time I’ve seen it.
Gosh. As some point today, I passed the 30,000-tweet mark. Well, I have been on here a while…
(Screw everything else. There are going to be 60 GIANT GROMITS in Bristol! gromit-unleashed.org.uk )

@PeteWilliams @PeteWilliams I think it’s since Twitter started doing inline image expansion on the website — doesn’t work well with 2+.
@PeteWilliams No. Even in the apps where it looks like you can, only one turns up. Bit odd.
My parents are trying to print a boarding pass. The phrase “as user-friendly as an airline website” is crossing my mind.
@Phooto *Takes off glasses* *Shakes hair out*
@stillawake And artificially-coloured hair, at that.
@hayles Indeed.
@mhoulden I think I prefer your glasses.
@hackery @ahnlak Not sure they should be routeable, being broadcast packets. But I’m sure there’s ways around that.
bathsaints @gothick pretty certain I got off with her on millennium eve ;)
Given the length of hair there, I’d say that would’ve been at about age 19.
@bexxi Things certainly could have been worse. I might never have watched _What Not To Wear_, for starters.

Going through old nostalgia box. Co-workers altered my pass and I got in to major finance company building f instagr.am/p/T85FFAJC9u/
Ninja_lynneja If anyone has any recommended vegetarian recipes please send them my way. Feel free to RT if you have lovely cooks on your lists. Thanks!
Tempted to go buy something *just* because their TV advert said “three hundred and forty nine pounds” rather than “three four nine.”
@sugarenia Yes, it very much does.
@RamonYouseph @stillawake I’m on DVD-only pay-as-you-go cheapie LoveFilm at the mo.
Hunting for family heirlooms the other day, randomly found a DB5… instagr.am/p/T8qIu2pC8I/
@hayles Heh!
(I can’t believe that actually works, but it does…)
suttonnick I still haven’t really found a use for Siri but maybe this is getting close? #marypoppins pic.twitter.com/6EFUgQm9
@liveindetail It looked vaguely familiar! :D
@liveindetail You somewhere near Blagdon?
@ahnlak Well, I can do it with at least one of mine…
@Thehappyfatgirl It could be worse. This month I’ll be 40…
@ahnlak If I can, I should probably improve your firewall while I’m there…
I think it may be time to retire brianthedebugger.com before the domain comes up for renewal :D #sillywebsites
@RamonYouseph @stillawake This is true, especially as I can easily get Netflix on my actual TV, but not Lovefilm. Hrm. Oh, and yes!
I’m the kind of person who remembers to update the copyright year in their Lightroom metadata on 1st January. Not sure this is a good thing.
@RamonYouseph Oooh! I was jealous of @stillawake’s Buffyfest last night. Maybe I’ll cancel Netflix and upgrade my Lovefilm.
@Lillput @andybeebristol Current pair are Merrell (from Mastershoe on Park Street) and they worked very well. Also liked previous Salomons.
This was my walking route this morning. It was lush. runkeeper.com/user/gothick/a…
@chubbybannister Yes, I always wonder about that when I see it. Odd.
@Lillput @andybeebristol Thanks!
@andybeebristol Ta!
RichNeville Looking at some old issues of 2000 AD. It’s hard to believe we used to dress like that.
@Bristolvor (Ta!)
@Bristolvor Oooh, never even heard of them.
@ShabbyBean Tell him he’s doing it wrong. You’re not meant to take dodgy ribs *to* Millie’s, you know… :D (Hope he recovers well!)
I think today’s walk might be the last for my trusty-yet-very-worn walking shoes. Where’s a good place in Bristol to replace them?
@ShabbyBean A&E? Was the Miss Millie’s *that* bad?
@zamon Feel free to keep it as long as you like.
@betty_watson Lush. Very optimistic way to start the year!

Happy new year, everyone. I am going for a walk in the sunshine.
Whisky, chocolate and Blake’s 7. There are worse ways of starting a new year.
@stillawake Mmm. Tell you what, this chocolate cigar is AWESOME. (Thank you, @MissEmmeline!)
Hrm. More chocolate?
@stillawake Strange way to start the new year, being rude to people on old blog posts. Oh well, no accounting for people’s lifestyles…
Hello Orac.
For nostalgia purposes, looking back through my earliest Morning Pages. Did them for quite a while, apparent instagr.am/p/T7DRPTJC_Y/
@stillawake Yeah, Prosecco on Netflix would be handy :D
@stillawake Gah. Wish Buffy was on Netflix. Got the urge now, and the current Blake’s 7 DVD just finished…
@stillawake I think I’ve probably said that quite a lot in my life so far.
@stillawake Well, I have to disagree a little, bear in mind how much IT WAS INFLUENCED BY BLAKE’S SEVEN AAARRRRGH GEEKANGER
@stillawake NO. IT IS THE BEST SCIENCE FICTION TV SHOW EVER MADE. Ooops, sorry, you tripped my fanaticism circuit.
@stillawake Likewise. Though I’m still on the Blake’s 7, and that’s also the best :D
@KirstyHigginson It’s New Year’s Day. I’m sure there are plenty of people who would’ve shouted at you for *not* playing it, too…
@stillawake Really need to buy that box set.
@EffBeeee *waves*
Hrm. LiveJournal is having service issues. And here was me expecting that Twitter would be the fail-whaling one this evening…
@talkie_tim @stillawake *clink*
@stillawake Disaster!
@stillawake It’s a good combo :D
Mahoosive chocolate cigar. Win! instagr.am/p/T60ou_pC1b/
