Headache starting to lift. It's the nausea that gets me. The pain is bad, but when it's mixed with that sick stomach feeling it fucks you up.
That said, let me present cat tower 2:
You may notice its not being used. Because:
I'll be taking a break from buying cat towers for a while 🤣
The box always win.
I got a direct call from a copper and I honestly thought the jig was up, my entire life of high crime had finally caught up to me and they were gonna ask me to exit the apartment with my hands up.
But no, they just needed access to my floor, and I guess I was one of the contacts they had for this address.
I will continue my life of crime until otherwise demanded.
Are you hiding hot cross buns again?
At my place I only play hide the sausage
Personally I'm hoping for much money but whatever floats ya boats I guess.
Monies buys potato so you're not wrong.
Thankyou especially for potato inches towards utensil drawer
Migraine. And dumb junkies next door screaming at 4am.
Fuck.
I must make pizza more often. Last night’s pizza is even better for lunch today
Back from Castlemaine and a little rested now.
It's such a pretty town, that gold rush money was well spent.
Pics tomorrow.
I'm going to bed early, good night, sweet dreams. 😘😘😘
Also, I’m taking the battle wagon in for repairs tomorrow. Someone drove into the back of me in November 😕
Almost exactly one year prior to that, someone crunched me in the side. That took like 6 weeks to repair.
It doesn’t really matter how careful you drive, someone will find you and smash you.
Dang, the UV is staying high until 6pm. I thought it'd get earlier sooner with the solstice.
Going through the pile and putting into storage. Definitely my favourite of 2024
Oooh 2025 holiday...you gave me fever..FEVER!
feeling crappy vent
Still negative on the RAT for flu and the Rona but this is not good. Sitting up for a bit to keep my lungs clear. Head and face are so sore. Loaded up with paracetamol and Nurofen at 7pm.
Managed a good lunch but really struggling to eat dinner. Might just crawl into bed. Ugh just when I felt like I was finally relaxed. I am really upset. I also know I have a bad mental reaction to fever so might just yell into the void here for a bit.
At least I cleaned my fridge and bought fresh food before it hit. And finally watched guardians of the galaxy 3 - I had always had to turn it off at the sad animals before. Made it through. 4/5 racoons.
Finally can relax now.
I’ve had my photo taken for my licence renewal. Was a super long line that went out of the post office this morning.
Did a lot of food shopping and snacks and drinks for the hot weekend and test cricket.
Going to indulge in making some dessert, jelly with two jars of morello cherries in it.
It’s going to be perfect for the next few hot days as a treat.
Got my apple and cinnamon hot cross buns and had a haircut as well.
Now I need to make dessert and have a coffee.
I’m tired!
Boooo to back pain. Great start to new year. Thanks.
Ahhh I feel a bit better now after that rant.
The first food I ate in the new year was hot cross bun, so the year is starting off good.
I just had the first stage of my root canal done. I took Panadol ahead and let the dentist know that I don’t tend to numb with the normal amount of anaesthetic so I managed better than I thought.
I’m now just waiting to see what the pain is like when the numbness wears off
My overnight oats this morning were a perfect blend, everything balanced well - sweet but not too sweet, a good amount of thick creamy yoghurt, a nice touch of vanilla. 10/10
I am home alone today and have a day off work. I might watch a movie, practise my instruments and actually log it in my practise diary, and take the dog for a walk.
I want to try and watch a movie a week this year.
accountability
Dog walk is done!
A friend at work with challenged me to play chess a few days ago, after not mentioning it this whole first four months we have been working together very closely - when it has come up in conversation many times (it's a hobby of mine and I've mentioned a few times meeting up with friends at cafes to play), and I've played games with a few other colleagues.
I'm not very good or anything but like I kinda know what I'm doing. He has beaten me about 15 games in a row so far, in dominant fashion. The most recent game he sacrificed his queen as his third move - literally just giving up his most powerful piece on purpose to handicap himself, and he won that game too. He's incredibly good and just happened to keep that fact hidden for months for some reason. So strange and interesting!
My sister plays backgammon and she kept nagging me to play so I crammed for about 3 months straight. Next time she asked I said "sure but go easy on me. Haven't played in years". First game I won "oh look beginners luck". Second game she won. Next 3 I won. She never asked me again.
That's kind of how I learned guitar lol
I think I’m going to be waiting a long time for this package.
oh mY GOD! Y2K FINALLY CAUGHT UP TO US AFTER ALL THESE YEARS! 😱
Today has been a nothing day. Just avoiding making my headache worse. I think after I feed the strays I'm going to play some ps5 and crash early.
Shame to have lost a day of leave to being in bed.
Booked a 1am flight out of here, not thinking about the fact that it's 4am at home. Haven't adapted that quickly!
Can't believe it's already the 2nd of January. The year is speeding by so fast! Soon it'll be the 3rd. Perhaps, even the 4th or 5th? Who can know for sure.
Today the Seagoons are going to Castlemaine by train. Such a pretty historic town. Will take some pics. 🙂
Big day of weeding today.
Bad back from moving soil the other day ✔️ Ibuprofen ✔️ Savlon ✔️ Sticks ✔️ Gloves ✔️ Hopes and dreams ❌
Sticks? no no no no no, you need to keep right away from sticks. Dangerous little buggers.
I think you've unlocked a few new phobias for a few of us here with your unfortunate stick encounter.
and reminded us how much we have to be grateful for in modern medicine
Raven might not be here if not for the meds 😭
A news article said that some kids born today will see the 22nd century, which is logical I guess but also it's broken my brain.
happy day after new year’s day
Day one of Singapore done - 26k steps. Told the boyo I like to walk everywhere on holidays!
Very disappointed with the lack of news regarding morons blowing their faces or limbs off with fireworks. Are we getting smarter as a country?
A cybertruck exploded and killed the driver, out the front of a trump hotel in the US. I think that's as good as it's gonna get regarding idiots buying badly made toys lol
naturally selected out
Mrs forgot my dinner so I’m eating now whilst she is trying to do the bedtime routine. Toddler just tore ass down the hallway with the Mrs exhaustedly chasing him. Don’t think she appreciated my comment of “he’s too higher level. You need more gym badges!”
I come back with booty!
Tap for spoiler
That's not the kind of booty I was expecting.
Ugh. Headache. I've had it since last night, but it hasn't gone away with a sleep. I thought it was a lack of water or something, but I drink a fair bit last night, and a sufficient amount since I woke up today
At least TheStench™️ is fading
