I’m doing a favour for someone that involves me spending the night in the Yarra Valley tonight. I have a gorgeous fire going, and I’m kicking back with some yummy cheese. And I’m being genuinely helpful. Love it.
That’s aussie living right there! Enjoy!
That sounds amazing. Enjoy!
Ikea sent my stuff in a big box. With a cut out door and window and roof peep hole it will make an excellent cat play house for Bill and Ted. 😸😸
May they have many excellent adventures in it.
Every large box that enters our home becomes a cat box!
A bit of light home defense jiu-jitsu wasn’t on my bingo card. Some persistent drunk dude convinced it was his house. Tried to barge in past me when I opened the gate he’d been rattling. Interested to see how the hernia surgery feels tomorrow, been two months now.
oh jeez that isn’t good. Hope you’re alright.
Oh I’m fine and so is the guy I got rid of.
Ice and rest. 😘
is it me or is it freezin’?
I’ve got the blanket wrapped around my midseciton like a kilt.
I felt a bit cold this afternoon and went out in my full winter gear.
Tomorrows going to be really cold though. Top of 11 or 12.
It wasn’t too bad during the day today, but yesterday the wind was freezing. The mornings have gone cold again and tomorrow’s forecast looks terrible. Fool’s spring is a real thing!
Oh no…I knew I should have worn my puffer jacket to work today. About to leave and head out into it
Get up and dance like no one is watching. Except for the cats. They will be judging.
My fingers are so bloody cold 😭
Here’s my playlist for tonight. Starts with 50s 60s 70s 80s and 90s plus added stuff.

One row equals one serve??? I will be the judge of THAT cadbury

Exactly
I have a catch up with some (nice) family this weekend but am otherwise free. I am seriously considering just being a big oodie couch gremlin for the day tomorrow. The world has been very noisy of late.
Update:
Home…bathed. oodie on. Ginger tea in hand. See ya on Sunday world.
The fuck has every cunt who knows i’m sick suddenly decided they desperately need me for things fuck off
Sounds like your hourly rate just doub…may…tripled.
Get well soon…and get paid if you can!!
Sadly not work. Work i sent a pic of the RAT and said bye felicia
Hope you’re feeling better soon sounds fucked :(
gentle hugs
Won a bottle of Henny from a bet.
Been sipping it this evening and it’s goooooooood.
Haven’t had Cognac in twentyish years. Been missing out.
It’s so delish and underrated. I am a fan.
I just made a massive bowl of The Pasta From Luca
The pesto one?
That’s the one
Dentist done for now. But I have to find somewhere that will take all of my wisdom teeth out at once, and preferably so full general anaesthetic. They suggested the dental hospital because they’ll do it for either free or cheap, but it’s a very long waitlist, and I won’t get in to see anyone until I’m a full adult with full adult responsibilities. I’d rather do it now when there’s people around to help me, and I can just not speak for a week with no issues
They suggested a low cost but private clinic in the east somewhere, but she said she would have to call to see what anaesthetic they can do. Apparently they also only accept referrals for certain procedures
Cost isn’t too big of an issue, since it’s not on my dime for the next 6 months. Part of the reason I want it sorted ASAP
Western Special Needs Dentistry might suit you. They’re very very good with people with sensory issues around teeth and in general.
It’s not a sensory issue, it’s just not exciting to have 4 teeth pulled while fully awake
True that.
I’m not sure if the Melb Uni training school does full anaesthesia, but worth a look. Wherever you go make sure you get more than one ice pack!
Goodnight everyone ❤️
Has anyone ever replaced the plastic chain on rollerblinds? I have one here that was broken when I bought the house and looking to finally replace it.
Horizontal blinds but same thing, I think.
Got the gear from Bunnings it was easy as.
Yeah, ended up just having to use a connector for them was easy.
Good shit!
Ima gonna watch the masters of the unuverse movie and you cant stop me
I feel you should stop you.
Too late, 'twas watched.
The difference between the cheap $8 soju to the $16 soju is quite distinct. Woo. Woo.
Do you like to do the whole ritual?
What’s the ritual?
The thing where you drink a fuckload of cheap Korean booze and wake up next morning with your head splitting and then proceed to blame it on something you ate🥴
I blame the man. Love you on Friday. Don’t talk to me on Saturday.
Oh haha!! the 12/6 work schedule making sense now😂
I call it his “holiday”
When you’re drinking with someone, oldest person pours first, make a whirlpool in the bottle, tap the bottom with the palm of your hand firmly, open it then poke the top of the bottle between your first and second digit (ideally spilling some), pour with two hands covering the label, never pour a drink for yourself, the first drink is taken as a shot (the rest can be shot or sipped), turn away from/avoid eye contact with the person who poured your drink if they’re older than you. It’s a whole thing but not mandatory haha
Interesting
This is our ritual. The man pours, he is older, he is more competent, into 2 shot glasses. On the hour. Every hour. We clink and say “sahtain” which means double health in arabic. Then we say “that’s a nice drop” and by 10:30 I’m nigh nighs. Sweet dreams.
I think that’s a perfectly acceptable substitute!
We are still in the refining stage.
