      I did not get that experience.

      Instead I got rained on halfway through my morning dog walk. Mr Woof got a touch soggy, and when we got home he had to wear his bathrobe while he dried off. He was not happy about it, tried to remove it himself and got his leg stuck and unded up with a short trial run of being a tripod dog. All is well now, but it was a drama filled start to the day.

      My app (jerboa) is playing up too. Says my account is not in a ready state. Fine through a browser.

        Was not fine via a browser for a good couple hours this am except for intermittent bursts (like when I was able to post that comment). Seems to be mostly resolved now?

    Blomkamp is doing Starship Troopers. Now, I imagine, for the sci fi heads, this movie is sacred ground and shouldn’t be messed with rightly so. It’s a classic.

    However, I’m hyped at the prospect of seeing Blomkamp’s interpretation of the book.

    Would you like to know more?

      I liked District 9 and Elysium. He can do dark and dystopian pretty well. Should be interesting at least.

    Too warm last night but the rain was a nice touch for sleeping in a little.

    Time for peanut butter toast and a coffee.

    Last night was animated.

    Ended up going to the jungle thing in the CBD.

    First time at a nightclub someone trying to sell me a pen and ket at the same time. Kids are different these days.

    Good jungle though.

    Waffles with maple flavoured syrup and vanilla yoghurt

    They’re wonky at the edges because it was the last of the mixture and I was pushing to get 3 out of it 😆 The others were more photogenic I swear!

    Days like today have made it obvious how dark my south facing living room gets… depressing. At least I’m not looking at a grey brick wall like the ground floor apt.

    Forgot that S2 of Pachinko came out a few months ago. That’s my afternoon sorted. Was scrabbling around for a tv show that didn’t involve mind games or violence or anything too out there, this is just what I needed.

    It’s a bit morbid but I LOVE eating lunch/dinner while watching this show, because all the WW1/WW2 era scenes — where food is scarce and everyone is living a hardscrabble life — make me appreciate my food and modern comforts so much more. To freely enjoy white rice and an abundance of vegetables and spices and oils. Kind of reminds me of my mum’s generation watching Oshin and enduring the years of civil war and rationing at home. Did they ever show Oshin in Australia?

    Just came back from shopping. I found it strangely not cold, despite how it looks out there, just wet. I’m loving it actually.

    Asked my dad for movie suggestions yesterday and he suggested Red. I ended up watching Borat, and upon telling him this, he said he didn’t want to know.
