Whoo, what a long day. Out to the city for movie, chat with friend, lunch at a HK cafe to satiate my cravings (Ovaltine! And yu xiang eggplant and you tiao), then sitting with my friend for hours of driving as she just bought a car and only recently got her licence and wanted to practice driving various routes including all the way across town… had a video call with a family member in between… I’m ready for bed now honestly. Also it’s cold again. zzzzzz.
Good mornin’, starshine
The Earth says, “WAZZZZZUP!”🌖

Finally found all my micro USB cables, and a watch I’ve got looking for about a month or so.
My girlfriend will collect things up in a grocery bag and dump it in the front room, or even on my desk, when she wants to clean and feel productive.
Unfortunately that just moves a bunch of unrelated things into a bag together that becomes harder to go through and I lose things because nothing is in a place that makes sense anymore
Ugh Mr P does the grocery bag thing too, just takes everything he feels is superfluous to the room, bag it up or toss it into random containers and dump it in a cupboard or under a bed. I hate it as it then becomes a separate more involved job to go through all the containers and bags and put stuff away like it should have been.
That was the situation with my watch. There are two places I usually put my watches and it was in neither of them so I couldn’t find it. Then I’m looking for a USB cable that will actually transfer data and there it is in a bag with all this other stuff
I had 2 cable bags and a small container in my cupboard all full of random cables I’ve collected over time, and when ol mate was rifling through my cupboard he tipped them all over the place, and I don’t know where anything is. And it’s even more annoying because I don’t actually know everything I had in them, so it’s difficult to replace. Until I need it of course, and realise “hey that connector looks familiar, I’m sure I have one somewhere!”
Reading this is making me twitchy.
I am big into storing things in a systematic way so everything is easy to find and nothing is lost, my husband likes everything to be out or maybe he is just lazy
My girlfriend wants to be like this but it doesn’t fully happen. She also goes and cleans up all my stuff when the back part of the house is a complete mess and that’s all her mother’s stuff that could mostly be gotten rid of
Rule in our house is if it’s not yours don’t fucking touch it. Make the other person clean that shit.
Dishes? fine. Old beer/coke cans? Fine. Work bag? In his office. Paperwork / watch / gym stuff? “go put your shit away dude”
I’m pretty tolerant until half the plates and cutlery are still in there and the mess/dirt starts tracking into the rest of the house
Cheerful morning people should be shot and fed to the early bird
Jinx! I’ve been watching trashy police cam vids and I have been thinking the past few days is Vicki Pollard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zExc6SK4kpA
Great minds think alike, and foolish ones seldom differ 🫡
I don’t wear glasses, but close enough
COMPUTER SAYS NOOOO
I’m not a morning person, some of my friends are very cheerful in the morning and as much as I love them I always want to strangle them at times.
I was once at a multi day camping event and some guy had the audacity to skip to the breakfast tent. Outrageous!
Totally outrageous.
No one has the right to be so cheerful without a cup of coffee.
Oh the audacity!
GOOOOOD MORNING LOVELY 🤩 IT’S GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL DAY 🥰👌🤞
🐦⬛🪱🥣
😡
I’m gonna be cheerful if all my body parts are working as they should. Ya gotta take the small wins.
Big rain hitting Ballarat and heading this way. windy.com
Oh deary me….
I got scattered sleep last night and probably only slept for five hours. Today was meant to be assignment day. We shall seize the day regardless.
I felt like I got the same amount despite trying to go to bed early last night.
Didn’t feel rested when I woke up.
Another eBay item sold. If my postage calculations are correct I am now $12 richer in money and one shoe-box size richer in space.
wiggles on bed alongside a pair of wiggly cats
They got breakfast when i had a five am pee, but they managed to swindle a second breakfast on Friday so now they’re being extra coquettish in hopes of a repeat performance
You also have lying Hobbits I see…
They never lied, merely inquired about second breakfast
It’s a slippery slope. We fed ours at the table once and the pestering then continued for years
Google Maps vs Royal Parade
Yes, it’s always a silly experience having voice navigation on down Royal Pde…
Went to a cardio class where we had to accumulate distance on the bikes and rowers as a team. My team came second last, but the team that came last had their bike reset the metres in the one of the rounds. Was a good workout regardless. Feel better than I would have if I didn’t do anything :)
Your team was way ahead of mine don’t worry

4/5 stars. Food is great if you ever get it, skilled and charismatic chef, but chef sometimes falls asleep after opening the food truck resulting in multi-hour delays. Worth the wait if you have nothing on.
The price is unmatched though.
May I suggest a robe if you are in a hurry.
No than you, I’ll let them air

Mmm raspberry jam. So yummy.
Chilli seeds are in on the prop. heat mat. This year (hopefully if they germinate) it will be just thai, habs and birdseye (if they overwintered).
Today’s major thing is digging over the soil that’s been trampled and compacted from doing the retaining wall. Soil is uneven af now and there’s a fair bit of it and I’m running outta radox and ibuprofen.
sends over care package of both
Cleaning the house top to bottom. It’s a big place and it’s so easy to ignore until it’s too messy.
Not exactly exciting, but necessary
my place hasn’t been cleaner for a long time but it’s untidy because of all the sorting and chucking out of stuff and the furniture restoring , drives me nuts
so I suppose I’m saying, how can people take just a few hours to clean the whole house? I seem to do so much housework but it’s never clean and tidy
It’s just me and Gibson so it’s fairly easy to clean. I’ll be moving to a smaller place later this year, and I’m looking forward to less rooms to clean.
And also not living next to crack heads, not having insulation, closer to civilisation and paying less per month.
welp, today I learned first hand just how hard it is to get vanilla slice custard off a cat
we need the back story on this
Forthded
I was eating a snotblock, cat was interested, sniff sniff, paw paw, glob of custard down her front.
Oh dear. Pretty sure I already told the beetrooted white cat tale.
I tell my Pepper that she has a creamy custard belly, but she doesn’t take it literally!
Seconded 🙋🏻♀️
Thirded.
Cats love custard. Melbcat used to like the dairy free egg custard I’d make. Gotta be careful that it’s real vanilla though as imitation vanilla can be toxic to cats.
My fun cat cleaning moments were wiping at yellow ear wash runoff stains and oily brown liquid medicine on white fur
Peanut butter off a kelpie’s back - I’ve been there. Not fun for anyone involved.
tbh I’d take the kelpie, cat in question is a longhair and it was on her belly
