- I've written about my Encounters with Remarkable Biscuits over the years, mmm biscuits – http://bit.ly/louisa-biscuits #
- @davidsmalley thousands of pounds?! how come that much? I think it only costs us about £300 a year extra to be ltd rather than a partnership in reply to davidsmalley #
- Had a dream that I was using World of Warcraft's Track Humanoids map view to follow Star Trek characters around Liverpool. I might be a nerd #
- Katherine & I are recovering from our evening of theatrical 'entertainment' by consuming oversized slices of chocolate cake. #
- @thattommyhall It was…interesting. Bigger screens/subtitles would have improved it a lot: they were distractingly, squint-inducingly small in reply to thattommyhall #
- The cats can't decide where to focus their attention – the man with the chainsaw or his two dogs in our garden. #
- Had a fun day, intermingling work, playing with the tree surgeon's dogs in the garden and tea'n'caking with Katherine & Joe. :D #
- Exhausted. Sorted the giant pile of ivy and branches in the garden, wood stacked to season. Leftovers for lunch now :) #

- @johnleach given K & I use "the office" as a euphemism for vaginas, I'm glad the drilling & banging is happening in your office, not mine in reply to johnleach #
- @TweetsByAlex A shambles is too harsh but it could easily be a lot better – better use of titles tags & more keyword-y URLs for a start. :) in reply to TweetsByAlex #
- My sewing-by-numbers kit arrived from @_leethal_ – can't wait to get started, what will the mystery animals turn out to be??! :) #
- Looking for new internal doors. Every single company website is unusable in one way or another, making a dull task even shitter. Sigh. #
- Today, I have mostly been getting excited by iron door knobs and aquaponics. So very wild. #
- Up very late with melted pre-fuse box wires, waiting for electricians. The excitement of being an adult never ends. #
- Still waiting-a lot of electricians seem to be all talk when it comes to emergency call outs at 4am. Second mains guy due soon, hopefully. #
- Yay mains people here at last. Couldn't get hold of another electrician though so burglar alarm will be going off until power is restored… #
- Would very much like to apologise to all our neighbours for the noisy crap last night inc. 20mins of burglar alarm at 5am. Sorry Greengates. #
- Have been email massacre (emassarce): something that was marked to-do 2 years ago isn't going to get done, time to file & forget about it #
- Forgot how nice a good egg mayo sarnie can be. #
- Trying to think of a subtle way to get @johnleach to make me a cup of tea but make it seem like it's his idea to brew up.This subtle enough? #
- @sarahjarvis actually, you kinda can polish them. but you still probably wouldn't want to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBj6PonX14A in reply to sarahjarvis #
- Doesn't think she's understood a word said in the last ten minutes. #satinbetweentwogeeks #
- I'm too old to be made to feel this shit by teenage girls. #
- I seem to spend a lot of time waiting for buses in bingley. Must learn the bus times… #
- Momentary power outage in greengates = burglar alarms going off everywhere. Had to enlist 4 people to help recall our alarm code. #
- @caius until 2 weeks ago, I had never watched a star wars film. i didn't even really watch it then, just on the same room while I was WoWing in reply to Caius #
- Just had some very pleasant dealings with HMRC. Am expecting day to become night, up/down and horses to start eating each other etc etc. #
- Talks herself out of a walk to the post office. Leaving the house is for LOSERS. #
- I'm always impressed when the cats managed to press key combos when jumping on my laptop – Carbon just hit Ctrl+P six times in a row #
- Had one of those dreams where you wake up still angry at the person in it.Might lash out next time I see him-will probably deserve it anyway #
- Horsforth today is proof that everyone spent last year bumping uglies in a bid to save money during the credit crunch. Babies *everywhere*. #
- Today was perhaps the wrong day to tidy the garden at the old house. C*O*L*D. Needed to be done though, estate agent taking pics on Monday. #
- Engaged in a fierce linguistic battle with @johnleach over whether bacon & crumpets is "bumpets" or "crumpon" #
- @tim_waters yay! hope you'll be very happy there. you should get a cat! ;) in reply to tim_waters #
- Has a bloody lip after being headbutted by the cat. #
- Got overwhelmed at drama: the kids' 1st rehearsal & my first time looking at the script. It'll come together but right now, *head explode*. #
- Looked after BabyJoe while Katherine was busy. A calamity-free sojourn aside from when I threw baby milk all over both of us. Sticky now. #
- Left alone in the office while everyone else is making tea/emptying bins. Wish I had 5 whoopie cushions. #
- Autopilot. Nearly got on the bus to the old house not the new one. #
- Sounds like all the cool kids are at NWRUG this evening. The draw of Brightbox-sponsored pizza, eh? :) #
- meh. #
- For dinner, I would like bbqed king prawn, mango & pepper chunk kebabs. Am likely to have fish'n'chips. Not quite the same but still ace. #
- The cat is sniffing my laptop warily as if he can smell the dogs I'm reading about on the Dogs Trust website. #
- @tim_waters i was thinking about the horse/car idea the other day, and whether i could get feasible around on a horse. answer: probably not. in reply to tim_waters #
- anyone want an A6(ish) hard cover moleskine week-to-view 2010 diary? i bought it by mistake – thought it was A5. *annoyed with myself* #
- @EMERGERecycling this might be outdated now but it used to be <a name="anchor-name"></a> on the para … in reply to EMERGERecycling #
- @EMERGERecycling then <a href="page.html#anchor-name"> for the link in reply to EMERGERecycling #
- Have managed to forget all my creative & thrilling poll ideas in the time it took me to sign up to PollDaddy & create a custom style. Sigh. #
- I accept I'm going to HTML-hell because I am too lazy to open style.css & put styling in my HTML instead but am too tired to care. #
- Likes this article – http://bit.ly/complain-less-plan-more – very much how I'm trying to think at the moment. (via @johnleach) #
- Wearing a blanket like a sarong to cut out lower-back drafts. Not a sexy look. #
- @tim_waters the refectory? they used to do fantastically odd combo lunches there. I once had pasta bake, with boiled potatoes & cauliflower. in reply to tim_waters #
- The office is super warm for a change and we're all full of pizza. If we make it until hometime without falling asleep, I'll be amazed. #
- @tim_waters I concur. I spend half my life bouncing between those states and it's not fun at all. in reply to tim_waters #
- Has done loads of really great work today – stuff I've been putting off for ages. Not enough externally-billable hours though, boo. #
- Learned why you shouldn't leave a fortnight-old glass of orange juice dregs on your bedside table next to your glass of water. *bleugh* #
- Increasingly strange/interesting music at Moosewrench in Leeds. Feel somewhat disorientated/detached. Probably what the bands intended. #
- @jordiv we're getting some more shirts printed at the moment – i'll get one out to you as soon as I can :) in reply to jordiv #
- @jordiv will try to get it to you by then :) in reply to jordiv #
- Now in my 2nd month of blogging "three beautiful things" each day (inspired by @Threebt). Fab to be focusing on positive things for a change #
- @IdleSi Indeed the public can view them – http://bit.ly/louisa_ . The last few days have been boring though – I've just been playing WoW ;) in reply to IdleSi #
- I really need to finish stripping the wallpaper in the dining room – it's too much fun to pick at the ragged edges when I should be working. #
- People keep saying how many inches they've got. I keep thinking they're talking about willies not snow. We've got "a good size" in BD10. #
- Used @thattommyhall's secret spice mix for the first time, oooh! #
- I guess that should have been "Used @thattommyhall's secret spice mix for the first time, oooh!" #notaeuphemism #
- Bookkeeping in bed. I like doing alliterative things. #
- Decided it's green to be lazy. Working in bed until noon means less need for heating in the house. #
- @Threebt Sleeping bag, genius. I was always them as a kid, feet jammed in the corners to walk. Can't believe I hadn't thought to bag-up now! in reply to Threebt #
- Bah, going to have to call it a day on my latest beansprouting attempt. Gone mushy before they're big enough to eat. Thinner layer next time #
- @strowger78 twice a day. Probably too many in the trays at a time, staying damp. kitchen is v. cold too, really slow growth. will relocate. in reply to strowger78 #
- Thinking about what I want to do for the next few years of my life. Want to get it all down on paper. Lists rock. No conclusions yet though. #
- Earache started in left ear last night, pain had moved from ear to throat by morning and now has moved to right ear. It's getting around. #
- Moving ear-throat pain has moved to top of head now – I have completed the circle, woo! louisa_'s entire head unlocked! http://bit.ly/7C3pQN #
- @tim_waters there's one on burley rd but pretty expensive. internet much cheaper for same/similar beds. they have race car beds though. :) in reply to tim_waters #
- @swirlyarts am sure you'll have thought of using an old anorak/kids' raincoat, or an umbrella: water resistant more than water proof though? in reply to swirlyarts #
- @swirlyarts away from recycled stuff, a dog coat made from Cath Kidston oilcloth might be unbelievably cute… in reply to swirlyarts #
- Bah, lots of lazy e-marketing saying reduce unnecessary travel on snowy roads by getting fastfood/groceries delivered: poor delivery people! #
