- Crikey. Kmart Broadway is a 24 hour store. Just… wow. #
- What surprises me – like Kmart opening times – worries me. Middle-age crisis already? #
- Twitter says I have 18,231 tweets. I was a sad-life six thousand something earlier. How is it I have a no life number now? #

- Watching the blonde stereotype with caked on make-up talk as she gets off the bus. I wonder if she struggles to keep her voice that high. #
- Bus stops. Person 1 walks in: Do you stop at Wynyard? Person 2: Do you stop at the Quay? Waits for Person 3 to order a Happy Meal. #
- Bah. No Mass Effect 2 here. Please let me be paid so I can go buy thee. #
- Love thy Trendsmap. http://trendsmap.com/ #
- Just misread "Monopoly Fishing" as "Monopoly Fisting". What a game that would be. #

Sunday, January 31st, 2010
- I miss my old room.
# - Belkin BoB router is surprisingly easy to manually configure but still won't puck up on my brother's access point. Annoying. #
- And my iPhone is changing pick to puck. Brillliiiiaannnnntttt. #
- PR People, it's time to play #FurnishMyHome! Branded cups, plates, plants, or lazy chairs? Inquire within… or without! #
- I want to go back and tell that busker she has a good voice but she needs to breathe when she sings. #
- Delays on damn near every line. I should've taken the bus. #
- Jaw drops at the blonde in the dark green one-piece at Central's Bondi-bound side. I move down the platform to avoid staring. #
- Stop looking at my bread, lady. It's mine. You can't have it. #
- Grumble… dumb Firefox on Mac. Crash on me. Grrr… grumble grumble. #
- Stop crashing Firefox for Mac. I know you're crap. You know you're crap. As long as we get by this, we'll be right. #
- My head hurts. #
- Christian rock. Christian movies. When are we going to get Christian hot dogs. I want to see one of those. #
- "Porn" is just another way of saying "scriptless film." Like a documentary but with more nudity. #
- The Coles at Broadway is very cool. But also very expensive. Very few deals. #
- Looking forward to Melbourne. Still no idea about tennis though. It's like Pong right?
# - Is it humid today. That's not a question. It's me saying a statement like a question. #
- Wooden stairs make it a bitch for creeping down stairs while you try to let your brother sleep in the other room. #
- If I put @sackboylives in my carry-on tomorrow, the cops will go nuts because of the permanently zipped up zipper won't they? #
- Happy Australia Day to all. And for the rednecks with the Southern Cross tattooed on their chests being racist, Happy GrowTheFuckUp Day. #
- Mike made pancakes. My brother rocks. #
- Windows 7 updates itself and MSN breaks. Again. Go Microsoft. #
- Is working on Australia Day. And unpacking boxes into his new home. I found my Wall-E. I think he's talking to my brother's girlfriend. #
- I live across from three pubs. Only in Australia. #
- Lots of sweating. It's hot today. #
- If I was a regular Australian, I'd probably be at any one of the three pubs across from me drinking. But I'm not. I'm at home. #
- $16.80 for sushi set at Maroo on Glebe Point Road http://twitpic.com/ztrq6 #
- Am I supposed to bring nice clothes for dinner events to Melbourne? Does that mean black dress shoes? All I have is cowboy boots. #
- I'm guessing Cons aren't smart casual dress. #
- My boss wears Hawaiian shirts. I can wear double plaid Cons. Surely that's fine. #
- Twitterati vote! Which has more sex appeal: Double tongue Cons or Black Cowboy boots? #
- I don't show this to many people, but this is an old project. Dress me up (with some of my wardrobe)! http://is.gd/74EjD #
- From Giz: "I'm 20 hours in to Mass Effect 2. And as I board a flight to check out the Apple tablet, I couldn't care less about Cupertino." #
- That quote more or less says it all about Mass Effect 2. I want this game. Now. #
- Have I told you today how much I heart my job? #
- Crap. I'm going to be early. I'll look for @Bruff #
- Arrived in Melbourne with tech journos. I don't remember it having so many trees. #
- Blueeee http://twitpic.com/zyu73 #
- I heart this trip. And Persian fairy floss. #
- Everyone is turning in. *sigh* #
- Other journos aren't getting great net with Voda. From my room, the view and the Telstra NextG are flawless. #
- Wish I'd brought a tripod. The view from my room. http://twitpic.com/zzie3 #
- I'm still obsessed with the big mirror in the bathroom. That and the idea of wearing a robe. I feel like Hugh Hefner. Well, not really. #
- Tried the "soft, fluffy, and enveloping" robe. It's enveloping. Don't know about soft or fluffy. #
- It's like I'm wearing a towel. I wonder if this is what Douglas Adams envisioned. #
-
# - *sigh* Really? Still using that little i? #
- I mean, don't get me wrong… it looks… well… like a big iPhone. But iM still over the iNaming. #
- Hey look. You can change the wallpaper. Finally. #Apple #
- One of my editors texted me to say it's an exceptional piece of tech. But where's the included cup holder? How will I walk with my coffee? #
- Twitter is having a meltdown. #
- Sheesh. This thing can't be cheap. #
- If Apple will use the open ePub format, does that mean you can share your books with the same 5 accounts currently used on iTunes? #Apple #
- Will this now be a Nintendo DS (kids) and iPhone/iPad (adults) portable console world? Looks like it. #Apple #
- So now that the iPad bet is over, can we place bets on how many Apple fanboys died from overexcitement? Or were hospitalised? #
- International in July. #
- Waiting for that one more thing. Will he say "Oh, and it makes juice." FINALLY. #
- I'm just saying. It would rock if I could surf the web AND make apple juice. I need that sort of thing. #
- $499? Ok. Netbooks are officially fucked. #Apple #
- Now the only i-device that lacks a metal back is the iPhone. You go work that out. #Apple #
- So no SD or microSD port? I'd have thought a computer-styled device would need expandable memory. #Apple #
- Pete's on Seven. #
- So what does Amazon think of WhisperSync on 3G-less iPads? #Apple #
- Is this sort of like the iPhone 2G design? And does that mean my old iPhone is the new black? That would rock. I'm tired of white. #
- I mean who needs multitask anyway. It's not as if you need to run mail, Twitter, and Safari at once. #
- I will admit I do like the #iPad size. But I sort of wanted to edit videos on the go. You know, with Firewire. #
- Ok, I faked that one. But it happened last time so it's fair. #
- It's up on Apple US, but not Apple AU. That's not a portend is it? #
- Obama: iPads for everyone? #
- Ok. I'm having a shower. No more rumours or announcements till I get back, please? #
- "1GHz Apple A4 custom-designed, high-performance, low-power system-on-a-chip" … Snapdragon-ish? #
- I already have an iPhone. I don't need an oversized iPhone. #
- Didn't Star Trek TNG make the PADD first? #
- Ooo! A baby giraffe has been born in NSW! That's cuter than the iPad! Where's the cute, Steve? Your move. #
- I feel like I like cameras for the wrong reason. Or the right reason. #
- Ack. Battery's going to run out very soon. #
- They're taking pictures of the cameras, right? #
- I like how a pleasant shutter speed helps high speed AF. Does it sound like fairies and unicorns? Magical ones? #
- Ken Duncan is in front of me. The world suddenly became more vibrant. Maybe. #
- Did anyone bring a PowerMonkey? #
- Tennis. It's… well… tennis. http://twitpic.com/104kra #
- It's time to play… BELT YOUR SUPPORT IN CRAZY VOICES! Let's try for clown voices and then Satan, people. #
- The ballboys look like an army of Dunkin' Donuts or Wendy's employees. #
- This will prob make @evilpublisher and @viletemptress happy, but I don't actually mind this. I'm just tired from the day. #
- Interesting. The more the fans yell "Andy," the worse he does. I'm unsure if these events are related. #
- I think maybe two or three more games before I well and truly fall over. #
- I have now fallen asleep several times. Look to row EE behind @Bruff to see a sleepy #CameraGuyInAHat #
