    Lock down drill at MissGod school today. Robot Baby was involved. Luckily it didn’t cry. But what if?

    Terrible things to consider this day and age.

    Got the melatonin… returned it for containing lactose ;-; I’m now checking out iHerb.

    Not seeing ingredients on some… Lactose is used to bind stuff into pills so maybe the gel caps might be alright. The gummies I found have ingredients and while not great they might be tolerable.

    just got home five minutes ago. Hot. Had half a small eskimo pie, will reheat some curry and veg for dinner. Then make the cat tree and get Ted’s scratching mat. Fix the washing machine. Then I might have that bath.

    I did wash the floors at the old place, cleaned inside all the cupboards and got the scuffs off the walls. Oven isn’t perfect but it’s ok. It looks as good as it can.

    good bye house, it’s where i endured the covid lock down and had a bit of a life at uni and lygon st. 😿 It’s where Bill and Ted came to join my little family. It’s also where I cemented a really good relationship with Miss Seagoon and got to know Young Mr Seagoon very well. 😊

      be interesting to see if they’ve “done enough” in the eyes of the people. Normally I’d say yes they did, but whilst coles and woolies screwing us every time any of us shop there I think labor might be victims of the capitalist system.

    Sitting outside thinking about what I am gonna do when I stop smoking to keep myself occupied. Here’s a list. Yo-yo, play the recorder, totem tennis, shoot flies, play battleships, keyboard. What’s your suggestions?

      Crochet comes to mind. Easy to carry around, takes up quite a lot of hand attention and you end up (usually!) with a usable article. Also mandarins are great to make one’s mouth a lot less cigarette friendly. Also peppermints but mandarins are more effective imo.

      Collage, crochet/finger knitting, gardening, experimental baking, revive macrame, try sculpture, adult colouring books, word/number/jigsaw puzzles, hook rugs or embroidery, become a meme lord, millinery, furniture restoration, darts, shoot some hoops, dancing… ok some of those are a bit silly. But with the time you’ll have and money you’ll save you can just about take up leatherwork, stained glass window making or anything really.

      Edit: photography.

    At the beach with a not particularly close friend for maybe the last truly warm evening… I don’t hate the beach but man, give me a wide open plain or mountain forest or even a treed river bank any day. Something about the gritty sand and seagulls and stuff in the sand and the endless expanse of the water just makes me feel meh.

    It’s cool for people watching when it isn’t too hectic though.

    Does anyone know a good word processing shareware/freeware program? I don’t want to give microsoft any more oxygen than I have to. Needs to be able to hold some fairly large files. Compatible with pdf a plus.

    So what do you do if you find an airtag in the middle of a sports field? Leave it there, or take and leave in your letterbox or something…? I have an android phone…

    Edit . Nfc’d it. Not marked as lost.

    Edit edit. Just left it on a bench

    What a shitty week. Work finally done, going to go for a walk to soak up the last of the warmth. Then I need to make my chocolate pie for a friends dinner tomorrow, will have a beer during to make the process more fun. THEN I can relax.

        I made it for a new year party and it was a hit! So going to impress different friends with it.

        Here’s the recipe I use. I don’t bother with the cream topping for a pie I need to transport and want to make the day before eating, and it’s still very nice without it. But I’d do it for a home pie.

        And there’s usually some leftover chocolate filling you can eat on its own.

        Last time I did a biscoff base instead of Oreo like the recipe calls for, this time I’ll try the Oreo.

        I love making sweet pies haha

    I went back to Resource Rescue craft supplies today, with a focus on getting soft fabric and things that can double as packing material for my move. I did manage a decent amount of fleece, and some felt squares that should work well between plates.

    I also ended up with a couple of pieces of fabric that look like the stuff they use to cover bus and train seats - it should work well to re-cover Miss Meows tower which is getting a bit tatty. The blue won’t really match anything else in the house, but you can’t have everything.

    Edit: Miss Meow has tested the fabric and seems to approve.

    Cat. Sitting on fabric. As cats are wont to do.
