It’s dangerous to go alone, take these

It’s my insane little idiot’s Gotcha Day., but he refuses to pose with new toy. So here’s an old one. First day as office cat.

Can we talk about how bottled soda water is now $1.20 when it used to be 70c? Even at ALDI.

I didn't realise carbon dioxide and water have become so expensive.

Boyo currently crying and hyperventilating after trying to burn out his not-Covid with Buldak noodles and a disgusting concoction called Fire Cider. I call dibs on first use of the bathroom tomorrow morning.

Well the good news is I thought I was getting closer to 90% of my allocated hours for this project but I'm still at 78% and I smashed out one bit that I thought would take 2 days, in 3.5 hours. Thank fuck!

Not finishing everything before I go on Thursday, but I've decided I'll take my work laptop after all and bash out the rest over the next week and then I have a completely clear mind for the rest of December :D and then maybe I can finally leave my job for real once I'm back...

I'm getting a Bug-A-Salt for Christmas. It's getting picked up tonight. I'm very excited.

Lamb has catastrophically dropped in price - $10-99 per kilo from the butcher for a whole 12 kg lamb. At this time of year, probably two-tooth or hogget rather than lamb lamb but whooeee! Time to stock the freezer. Six months ago lamb was more like $26-00 per kilo at Colesworth.

tee hee, this is the blouse imma gonna wear for xmas, it has angry skworls and I love it 🤭

Würzburg Christmas market!

(I can’t work out how to crop it, so sorry if it’s still sideways).

Australia is waking up to the news that we've LOCKED IN our participation in Eurovision 2024!

I think I need to take a break from binge re-watching Buffy. It's giving me stressful dreams. Not about monsters or demons but there's always some crisis going on in that show and it's contagious.

Reasons I hate PTV #6487:

Trains are down so I caught a tram. It has now been an hour, and I'm only about two-thirds home.

It would've literally been faster to walk.

Where the fuck is the oversight?

Was at Bunnings and noticed they have expanded their cleaning products aisle. Way cheaper than supermarket, especially the dishwasher tablets. Purchased some basil seedlings. Haven’t had great success in the past, because they burn if too sunny, get leggy if too shady. I’ve selected a spot that gets morning sun and afternoon dappled shade, hopefully that will keep them happy.

I haven't shot any flies yet even after I opened the garage door and waited.

At first the roomies laughed at me. Now who's asking "can I'va go"?

Melbcat is home! I'm concerned though.

Edit: She just had an asthma attack. I gave her puffers, tied a replacement carrier to the pram frame and walked to emergency. The nurse took a quick look. Her breathing has settled but now it’s me stressing out and trying not to puke

Is it time? Is it time I decolour my hair and let it grow out white? It's long and wavy and healthy and not too thin. Young Miss Seagoon says yes. I will ask Mr Seagoon.

I had two packages today, both books from different branches of the same library. One package was left at the door, the other I have to pick up from the post office. 😡

bloody germans got me working late. But my boss knows not to bite the hand that tends his servers so it means I can start whenever the fuck I feel (or indeed not at all) tomorry. Unless a fire starts.

At a set of traffic lights this morning, glanced in my rear view and noticed the lass driving the car behind me was curling her eyelashes. Didn’t think much of it, until we’re then doing 80km/hr and I checked my rear views and saw that she was doing her mascara. I’m down for a bit of multitasking, but that just seems dangerous.

Got woken early by one of those spam texts that bypass the DND setting and didn't manage to get back to sleep. Two clients today, first one who was That Client last week. I'll see how it is this time but I may be requesting a reassignment.

what are the six geese laying?

Mariah Carey Hath Descended. It Is Time.

When dogs sleep and their feet twitch, I want to know what they are dreaming about. Chasing a ball? Going for a walk? Running from the scary vacuum cleaner monster?
