    5 hours on PT today to see a doctor.

    I’m getting myself a cheap car in a few months if everything goes well. Been so fucking long since I’ve driven. Might need some lessons I think.

      Or a small motorcycle/scooter if you don’t go anywhere far.

      Before covid, did daily round trips CBD-Camberwell. Fuel, insurance, maintenance all up is about the same as a monthly Myki pass.

          My brother has one of the modern postie bike and he gets around on it a fair bit. The second hand market may not be get though. They’ve stopped importing them because of be rules around bikes needing abs brakes. Great bike though

    And thus begins the beginning of the chillo season.

    At front is an orange hab , ones at the back are thais. Took under a week to pop which was surprising.

      Thanks for the reminder, I wanted to give them a go this season and wasn’t quite sure when to jump in. I planted Jalapenos last summer that have actually survived winter somewhat, but had almost zero heat. Planning to get something a bit hotter this season

    The second round of Weather has coincided with the thankful resolution of 2 hours of panicking over losing my phone and retracing my steps a billion times.

    Fittingly, it turns out my phone was lodged in my umbrella… I must’ve dropped it in there when I left it loosely open and upside down while going to the bathroom or something.

    that was a very stressful 2 hours though fuck me.

    Omg I’m eating out ATM in a busy place and I just sneezed into a napkin in a way that made a seal with my mouth. It came out as an enormous squeak sequel thing and turned everyone’s heads. Eek.

      There he was in a busy place
      Shoving his food into his face
      When the urge to sneeze suddenly took over
      He grabbed a napkin to keep his composure
      But a seal he made with his dainty mouth
      An uncouth sound, it’s all gone south
      The cafe turns their heads to him
      As he sits in silence with his sin.

    Had donuts cravings this morning that demanded satisfaction. The Paris theme ones really hit the spot, especially the creme brulee 😋 Still riding the high of Miniest winning “Most Creative Costume” award at her parade on Friday. Costume made it home intact, so now I have a giant wearable book in the loungeroom 😂

    Another protest in the city.

    But the one thing that caught my eye is the number of Toyota Klugers in the police fleet lined up on the street. And then there’s us having to wait months maybe years for a delivery lol.

    My dog did something that I’ve never seen him do before. Waited until the kid got up from the kitchen table to blow her nose, leaped on to the chair, skinny body stretched out, front paws on the table and hoovered the rest of her meal up in seconds. He didn’t even stop when I walked in. This is why I have rules about pushing chairs in.

      Kid now understands why they need to follow the rule too!

      I had a dog that loved walking around on the dining table, so any time a chair wasn’t pushed in she would be up there, whether there was any food or not. The other dog I had at the time would just sit on the chair like you’d expect of any invited guest.

        She took a risk walking 3 metres to get a tissue. She lost her meal.
