    worked hard again today, I’m covered in bruises from the past week doing physical stuff,

    and it’s just been real weird with fam , it’s like I’m living with aliens. Barely a single word out of their mouths makes sense to me.

    on a positive note doing all this physical work is giving me some core muscle strength and my posture has greatly improved!! Now to lose another 20 kilos and I’ll be feeling great. 🙂

    Oh man, it’s the evening for the blues. Today’s episode of The Pitt unsurprisingly hit so hard. Doesn’t matter that what happened was telegraphed a mile away, Noah Wyle’s acting in that last minute fucking destroyed me. Had a big ugly cathartic cry and still tearing up over it. While also just overwhelmed by the competency porn. Y’all really need to watch this show (with several boxes of tissues). Best medical show ever

    Three gins worth of cleaning and dancing round the apartment. Need to pass the mop over the floors and do some clothes sorting but mostly done. And I wake up tomorrow to a clean kitchen.

    Night all ♥️

    I have eaten too many choc coated raspberries. I regret nothing, but I will need to replenish the toilet paper tomorrow as a matter of urgency.

    Sigh. You know how there are some people whose company somehow makes you feel more alone? I feel like that’s this person I hung out with this evening… I basically felt like I was her uber driver. I have never liked the fact that she’s 50% of the time on the phone when hanging out with me, in the past it was because I was helping her out with stuff but now I’m kinda done. The last straw was when we were supposed to have fish and chips after the sunset and she said she’d shout me, but then later on when I asked her where she’d like to go she said actually she has cramps and she doesn’t want to eat. I think I’m really ready to let this one fade away (which is sad given I don’t have many other friends but oh well)

    Just enjoying my own f&c at home now, gonna rewatch last week’s The Pitt and then enjoy this week’s.

      So you drove her around and she was supposed to reciprocate with F & C and then ducked out. And she does this all the time?

      not cool and does she do this to her other friends

      because while you are a friend to her she is not a friend to you

      and so many hugs

      I hope the DT can be your internet friends 😘

        I think she’s better with her other friends but tbh… I really don’t have that much in common with her other than some mutual acquaintances from uni. Her likes and personality are totally different from mine. I think I bore her too but I’m not about to be a doormat about it either. Probably better for us both to let things go.

      That’s really rude if they spent that much time on the phone when they’re hanging out with you.

      Drop them and don’t look back.

    Sitting outside thinking about what I am gonna do when I stop smoking to keep myself occupied. Here’s a list. Yo-yo, play the recorder, totem tennis, shoot flies, play battleships, keyboard. What’s your suggestions?

      Collage, crochet/finger knitting, gardening, experimental baking, revive macrame, try sculpture, adult colouring books, word/number/jigsaw puzzles, hook rugs or embroidery, become a meme lord, millinery, furniture restoration, darts, shoot some hoops, dancing… ok some of those are a bit silly. But with the time you’ll have and money you’ll save you can just about take up leatherwork, stained glass window making or anything really.

      Edit: photography.

      Crochet comes to mind. Easy to carry around, takes up quite a lot of hand attention and you end up (usually!) with a usable article. Also mandarins are great to make one’s mouth a lot less cigarette friendly. Also peppermints but mandarins are more effective imo.

    Does anyone know a good word processing shareware/freeware program? I don’t want to give microsoft any more oxygen than I have to. Needs to be able to hold some fairly large files. Compatible with pdf a plus.

    I still remember having a baby robot for health class in Year 10. Just as I had fallen asleep, I got woken up again. Makes me feel for people who don’t get mat leave around the world and are forced to go to work or resign from their jobs.

    At the beach with a not particularly close friend for maybe the last truly warm evening… I don’t hate the beach but man, give me a wide open plain or mountain forest or even a treed river bank any day. Something about the gritty sand and seagulls and stuff in the sand and the endless expanse of the water just makes me feel meh.

    It’s cool for people watching when it isn’t too hectic though.

    just got home five minutes ago. Hot. Had half a small eskimo pie, will reheat some curry and veg for dinner. Then make the cat tree and get Ted’s scratching mat. Fix the washing machine. Then I might have that bath.

    I did wash the floors at the old place, cleaned inside all the cupboards and got the scuffs off the walls. Oven isn’t perfect but it’s ok. It looks as good as it can.

    good bye house, it’s where i endured the covid lock down and had a bit of a life at uni and lygon st. 😿 It’s where Bill and Ted came to join my little family. It’s also where I cemented a really good relationship with Miss Seagoon and got to know Young Mr Seagoon very well. 😊
