not ideal, did they give you an ETA?

I reckon the person who came up with toast just had a loaf of stale bread. Cost of living and all. Up there for thinking.
This is almost certain. I also reckon that the best dishes from any cuisine you care to mention are the ones that use up leftovers. eg pizza, shepherds pie

Tennis + gym used to occupy so much of my day and now that I can't do both I have so much time. Feels like shit again having so much time and nothing to do. Might as well just keep working I guess 💁♂️
Finally got round to watching The Flash movie.
I am not surprised. Just disappointed. Again.
Highlights: Keaton, Kara (really well handled & great shots in costume), "Come on Barbie".
Not even a bangin' soundtrack.
the acting was shit. the characters werent great (Beyond Supergirl). The plot was shit. Disappointing doesn't even begin to cut it. They tackled too tougher story with a character that was unlikeable and hadn't been given anywhere near enough screen time.
FFS a 10 min rant is not a question!
I made my special airplane drink (Bailey's & vodka on ice) with the Mint Chocolate Bailey's and it was lovely. It doesn't seem to be very minty or chocolatey though.. very similar to regular Bailey's.
No package again, I'm going to fkn scream. I only ordered it online because it wasn't available in-store. I called stupid Startrack and got hung up twice before they told me it'll "probably" come tomorrow. Then the lady said she had lodged another complaint for me and proceeded to give me my previous complaint number insisting that both complaints will be under that one number, double bullshit.
Tempted to be extra annoying and call the company and see if they have anything to say.
Today will be the third day StarTrack try and "redeliver" my parcel. I've left the front door open, put the downstairs TV on, and turned the porch light on, leaving them no excuse to say I wasn't home. Taking bets on how fruitful I'll be.
