    Attempts to time my afternoon walk between showers were a complete and utter failure, we had to abort early. I was able to take off my wet-wool smelling jumper and am now just a bit damp, but Mr Woof had reached Soggy Doggy status and has been tied into his bathrobe.

    So… new fancy schmancy washing machine.

    Where everything is electronic and painful. I just want to dry off something and check it without having to wait 2 mins for the door to unlock.

    At least I’ll be saving water for the environment. Gyah.

      That sounds like my old LG steam washer/dryer. The door lock delay was super frustrating and I can’t say I ever liked the thing. I ended up going back to a top loader and drying rack and donating the combo unit to an animal rescue.

    I wore sandals when I went out. Sorry. 😔

    Also, i went to the italian supermarket and while there bought a block of nice milk chocolate, I had one square, nibbled it slowly and threw the rest away. It was so delicious.

    Faint voices from a TV set
    Waft lazily through the cool air
    Click of a lighter from my
    Neighbour downstairs
    The dull bass of dance dissolves
    Into raucous hoots of
    Rave Owls
    Light talk and heavy breaths
    Makeup running with the sweaty
    Neon signs
    A man yells the World is dying
    In the alley below
    Then lights his spoon
    Acrid scents and fumes
    Mingling with Tram dings
    Train horns warning, turning
    The chanting of a chorus
    Into Angelic choirs of Contact Sports
    Of Money placed on Winners
    Losers spill into the street
    Footsteps, friends singing
    Some one hit 90s hit
    On their way to the servo
    To the next bar
    Homeward bound

    I have a contented cat curled up on my lap, purring. I am getting hungry and and would quite like some lunch. He says that’s not his problem. I guess I’m going hungry until His Fluffiness releases me.

    Rain coming down thick and fast. I did get the washing dry this morning, so am grateful for that. Have also weeded the pot plants and distributed the spring fertilizer ration, so this rain is perfect.

      I managed to pull out months of weeds/dead plants and get the fert in on Thu night before soxcat came and very grateful for the timing + this reprieve from watering and so forth. The one upshot of such a gloomy forecast. Gotta throw some seeds in soon…

    Shopping done!

    Trying out a cafe I haven’t been to today, trying out Drip cafe today.

    Hope the coffee is good here.

    Not too big of a place here and I’ve taken a front window seat to hopefully see more of the sun.
