My illustrated edition of the Hobbit did turn up and my god, I can’t believe I got so much book for $16. It’s got gold on the cloth bound hardcover, it’s nice and thick with glossy paper stock, and it’s full of drawings.
Independent book stores could sell this for $36, saying it’s marked down from $70 and they’d move so many units.

Mood: The Summoning - Sleep Token
Mmm, what to eat for dinner…
That’s pretty cool. It’s like a Fear Factory/Meshugga cross with a slightly better vocalist
Maribyrnong: Anglecised version of “Mirring-gnay-bir-nong”, which translates as ‘I can hear a ringtail possum’.
That made me laugh so fucking hard 😂😂😂 like it’s just an apt name for the area holy shit 😂💀

7 hours in.
What are you drinking?
Pure Blondes and Soju shots on the half hour.
Ok , Interesting. What does the man drink?
Same.
I can’t get into the Soju. , I really tried but yeah it’s an acquired taste I guess.
That course I got a massive discount on? Given the total class numbers, yikes. And I can tell who the other not full price person is. Bad data handling.
I’m sure you know allll about the Privacy Act… I’d be so suss 👀

Classes done for the day - phew. Won both Kahoot quizzes so I’m just gonna ride this high for a lil bit
Why isn’t frozen mirepoix a thing? In convenient sized sachets? We can purchase frozen everything else, why not that? It’s just finely diced carrot, onion and celery. There’s a marketing opportunity here - a sachet of mirepoix and a bag of good chook stock in the same pack - would save so much hassle assembling and chopping etc.
They must have this for commercial kitchens, surely!
I’ve never seen it. And it’s fundamental to french cuisine. Jacques Pepin would be whirling in his grave I’m sure.
Okay my bad, I read mirepoix as “mirepox” and had a moment of “is that zoonotic?” 😅 Bloody infection control and procedures class has stuck in my head 😂
You might have just become a billionaire
I look forward to the day when McCains or similar get their act together and provide this.
Alright. Pizza and Ps5 let’s fucking gooooooo!
Unwinding to some Quincy Jones tracks (so much MJ!) as is the theme across so many PBS programs this week…
I’m NOT going to think about packing or selling items tonight, I’m just tapped out.
Got a friend coming over tomorrow to help work out this couch bizzo and provide some distraction from all the packing and culling.
Wonder what movie or tv series I could blank my brain out with this evening.
Truthseekers is a great fun series
I’ve got the mic plugged in. I have a charming/ atrocious singing voice. What should I wake the neighbours up with?
Sugar were going down - fallout boy
Done.
✊🤘👨🎤
That is such a fkn banger I love old fallout boy.
Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet is my favourite - Ceo: sing that one too pls!!
Edit: second thoughts, don’t sing this
Cool song. We’ve played Fallout Boy today but for you an exception.
Something Beach Boys, just to be different.
We’ve done Beach Boys. Love em. Fantastic.
Blind Melon - No Rain.
Def Leopard - Pour some sugar on me.
Divine - You think you’re a man.Oh thank you for reminding me of Blind Melon. Time to listen to Nico
This is the way
Walk like an Egyptian!
My culture is not your costume /jk
(I’ve always wanted to say that hahaha)
Do I need to do the actions?
Interstate Love Song - Stone Temple Pilots
Great song. My favourite STP.
If your voice is atrocious or not, you must sing this
🤘
White Town - your woman
Good song 👍
Depends on what you’re into? Either way have fun belting it out!
Rock, punk rock, grunge, old rock. I can “sing” them all. I have words on the big screen to help me.
Rock on mate 🤘
Daughter - Pearl jam
I can also “sing” and can do screamo and very much into your exact music tastes, so I challenge you to try do something a little left of field and do either of these solo (failing that I can give you a fuckton of punk to try):
Or hey, nothing – The Sink (live)
Also🤘 till the end.
Today I’ve had 4 coffees, 1 slice of cake, a few mouthfuls of Twisties, some challah, 3 chocolate chip cookies and a can of tuna.
Now I need to decide what to eat for dinner.
Um, time to give some respectful attention to vegetables I think.
What is this vegetable you speak of?
More than one for best results. Maybe a green one and a red one? Protein and carbs appear to have been sorted. I don’t want to cramp your style when it comes to vegetables.
Cheers 🍻
Quick bring a beer, I’m in class
For after 🍺
prost!
That’s classy as fuck
Nice stegosaurus?
They don’t say nay. or drink beer
What a wowser
🪙
My partner has been complaining she’s been freezing cold all day and she just figured out that we forgot to switch the mode back to heating rather than air con from yesterday. Gotta love and laugh at these Melbourne problems 😂
