Outcome of the ultrasound with Sammi - no obvious tumours or obstruction. Enlarged lymph nodes in her stomach, so they want to proceed with the other ultrasound and take some samples. Meanwhile she’s home alert and hungry.
In other news there was a three vehicle stack in the middle of Main Street Mordialloc on the way home. Hopefully it’s cleared by now…so many hugs, hope she gets better soon
This is the face of, “why are you at home during the week, and where the fuck are my treats homie.”
The symmetry in her markings is something else 😻
Aw sweet Gibson, the beauty of her face and colours is awesome 💜💜
Oh my goodness 😂
Whos a handsome boy! Yes he is!
The look of “you better be here tomorrow mfer, I don’t have opposable thumbs and those treats aren’t opening by themselves (I’ve tried)”.
She actually did try!!! I came home the other day and she’d grabbed the treat bag and had been gnawing at it to try to get to them.
Weather songs please
It’s raining Men!
Hallelujah
November Rain Purple Rain
Scorpions Rock you like a Hurricane
It sure does feel like a hurricane
here comes the rain again - eurhythmics
Aaaaand now 5 of us are sick because old mate came to work sick yesterday.
Fucks sake.
Currently the scores are even 7s. Will or will not Simon siphon?
Pee in his coffee mug (don’t do that…)
Conversely…do it
Surprisingly, the plants on the patio held up surprisingly well. One had been knocked out of its pot and ended up upside down (no clue where the pot is), but the rest are still there
Image ft. Plant reveal (even though like 90% of them are dead now 😔):
It’s a bit chaotic. I inherited it all from the LT that moved out a few months ago. Unfortunately I’m still trying to figure out how to keep things alive and ended up killing most of them. Gonna do a spring clean next month though
I’m pretty sure I heard some things toppling last night but I have a trajillion other priority things to do today so I’m not even going to look at anything until tomorrow tbh
I had an empty 20L bucket go missing. Bon voyage bucket. May your journey be full of wonder and adventure.
oh the weather outside is frightful
I think it’s gonna get worse. I’m going out for supplies soon.
i’m going out to work in a few hours
Stay safe Bac!
Don’t forget the biscuits
🙉
There’s some lovely sun and also hectic wimd, please tell me how I should feel about this as I am confused
we’re doing a welcome to country before every meeting now?!
Is this any different to standing up and singing God Save the King/Queen/Whatever or the ‘National Anthem’ before sporting events? A ritual to be gabbled through before the real business begins. As such, it’s a travesty of what such a welcome should be.

Yep, you’d find I’d have the exact same reaction to god save the king before each meeting. Are we really gonna do this 6 or 7 times a week?
I like when we have an elder do a welcome to country. It’s different and always pretty cool.
Doing the acknowledgement before every meeting is basically tokenism at this point.

Hundred percent. That feels like we’re honoring the indigenous communities.
This is very much my feeling. And if you’re going to do it every bloody time at least use the short form not the 6 paragraph version.
Disclaimer I have a genetic but not cultural link here, so don’t often claim.
wait, is this like a union meeting, or a mid week office catchup?
The former is ok, the latter is fuuuuuuck off
it was an ad hoc “telling off” meeting by a department who thinks they have power (and probably SHOULD have power) but in reality they dont. Kind of a nothing burger meeting.
Yeah fuck that. The whole acknowledgment was probably an attempt to look more important by them
Welcome to country, or acknowledgement of country?
I’m pretty sure a welcome to country should only be done by a first people’s elder (or representative)
they said “welcome to country” but I suspect they meant acknowledgment.
That makes it even worse!!!
Good night. 🤧 Sweet dreams. 😘
You too!
flirt idea: are you melbourne’s winds? because you are blowing me away
Hey baby are you Melbourne’s winds? Because I want you to keep me up all night blowing and banging
This might work if there’s a high level of intoxication
NSFW
Babe I appreciate your enthusiasm, but please stop blowing on my face!
🤭💨
Just remember to say ‘away’.
I feel like that could go wrong so easily 😅
Unfurl the sails.
hoist the colours
Say what you want about those last couple of movies and Kira Knightly, but that was an incredible scene.
Cat rambles
Melbcat got her antibiotics yesterday! Now I have to wrestle her (gently) to ensure she swallows the weird banana flavoured liquid instead of sneakily spitting it out. I am deeply unpopular for a few minutes afterwards (until it’s time to cuddle again).
If the infection reoccurs after this she may be referred to a specialist to check for underlying causes. I’m so glad I’ve maintained a bit of an emergency fund because if need be I will absolutely be getting a lift and going for it.
I’ve found an old smaller sketchbook + just a normal pencil sharpened in a standard way (both more portable) and am using it to scribble for art exercises. I’m also doing them as multiple tiny drawings on one page just so it doesn’t take forever to get the idea down, shade, draw precise lines or just finish. Also doing it while watching trashy video essays on youtube.
I really don’t have a lot of spare energy to create so trying to lose the perfectionism and just do easy structured doodles is probably the only way I could get anything done.
Ew gross sleep. Not looking forward to work
Just took Sammi for her ultrasound - poor love hadn’t been herself all yesterday to the point where I phoned the vet again - they suggested admitted her overnight but there wouldn’t have been anyone there so I decided to keep her home. Wise choice - the wind woke us both up at 3 and she was straight off with the snuggles and purrs and this morning she was demanding breakfast - unfortunately I couldn’t give her it since it’s a fasting procedure.
Now having a coffee and cake in Mentone while I wait for the school traffic to clear.Sending hugs.
WTF. I just saw the news about a man who poured a thermos of hot coffee on a baby.
