Goodnight all ❤️

Sorry for the repeated negative posts but still feel shit from the sleep thing today.

I just want things to go back to normal. It's fucking me up at work. Tired, demoralised.

screams into void

hopes that void cat might appear in response

E: I am finally done with my last day of work before my trip!! Tomorrow I start driving around to get gift items and stuff, then start packing. Starting to feel real! 🥳

Anthem for the Year 2000 - Silverchair still hits hard.

Fuck that album is so damn good

Hotel club lounge have got me pegged. Take the empty plate, leave the empty glass because it will be refilled.

Snorkelling today, was absolutely stunning out there. Calm, sunny and filled with beautiful fish and coral.

Last day of in-office work before I go away for a month (where I might do a bit of occasional remote work because the money would be nice...) Really dry and boring document review to do today but it could be worse.

Things remain generally very quiet though (compared to the utter craziness that we had all of last financial year), so I'm actually legitimately a bit worried about how the business will keep up especially after I come back. Eh, that's not a problem for today. Maybe it's the universe prompting me to think a bit broader.

E: 3 hours to go and I still feel like clawing my eyeballs out

Melbcat has been checked out, given a vitamin b shot and blood test, and her blood pressure med is going up to a whole tablet.

The little black spot on her nose will be monitored as it could be precancerous, and if it gets large again there’s a cream that can resolve it.

Edit: Dammit. Just answered a spam ‘solar’ call thinking for some reason the vet was calling back. Letting whoever it was know it’s a live number. I reported to Scamwatch and blocked their number but they’re probably spoofed anyway.

Bunnings chicken salt: 10/10, do recommend

Jfc I'm pretty damn glad I pirated 28 Years Later and didn't go to the cinema to watch it like I'd planned. I hadn't watched any trailers or read any reviews.

And, what in the ever loving shit was that pile of utter wank thrust upon my eyes?

1/10 and it gets the 1 point purely for the Power Rangers scene because by that point I genuinely didn't think it could possibly get any worse but nope, to my utter disbelief they managed to subvert my expectations and pull it off.

That film has no redeeming features and I want money back for my time wasted.

Fucking hell, I really hated that film. I should've turned it off 5 minutes in when it became apparent that the opening scene wasn't a parody.

If they'd have called it "Monty Python's 28 inches later" it would've still been a shit Monty Python film by their standards, but at least I would've known what to expect.

wonderful day to tackle mount washmore.

Managed to get into work.

Not to most comforable to walk around unfortunately.

Going to try and do as little on my feet today as possible.

Why, why do people keep coming to interrupt me during my lunch break?

I'm playing games on my Switch, is that not sign enough that I should be left alone?

I have a rental inspection this morning, which means I can't slob around in my pyjamas all day. I should probably find somewhere else for those random things I threw in the bath tub yesterday to give me more room to sort things. Mr Woof is going to be very upset, two visitors in the same week, that's like a full on invasion of our territory!

I saw the band Ulthar are playing the Bendigo Hotel this Saturday. They're the sort of band I thought would be too small to ever come here.

Check them out if you like the idea of an album being two 20 minute songs full of blackened death metal rifs

Inspection done. Mr Woof was as upset about the invasion as expected and Miss Meow is still in hiding.

The sun has come out and it's a fairly decent day outside, I'm hoping it's enough to get a load of towels dry.

Edit: Miss Meow has just emerged from underneath the couch.

Meeting cancelled is perhaps the best mail notification ever

Having chops for tea tonight. You bet I'm gonna pick the best looking ones for me.

omg, The young Seagoon's local beach is under tsunami alert, luckily they live on a hill about a km away and will be staying home, I know it seems a long way but they spend about an hour at the beach everyday

Thoughts on Deb mashed potato? Seems to be all that's in supermarkets for instant mashed potato. I have been randomly craving mashed potato and wanna try.
Edit: yes I can appreciate real potato would be better but I'm interested in the shelf stability and convenience. I will try and report back

Well my day didn’t as planned in regards to my toe.

Needless to say I freaked out and got quite stressed.

okay guys I gotta change seats and do some walking at home to ease my back

I recently read that ABC article on how a faecal transplant allegedly treated a woman's bipolar. Would you do such a transplant?
