Yarrabyte’s offline again.
Where do you take your partner when you live in a bit of a boring suburb with not so great transport and your house is off-limits because your parents are home?
Please don’t say the car 😂 my car got a bit of water in it when it rained because of the sunroof guttering being full and it smells putrid in there
Nice day for icecream in a park🍦
Park with bushes, movie theatre (a movie that isn’t popular = empty theatre), hotel/motel.
Mondays at a derro pub with pokies. It’s quiet, and everyone is sitting at the machines so the dining area/beer garden tends to be empty
Thanks for the suggestions!
Motel, hotel or b n b. During the day you could go bush and find a secluded spot. Bring a picnic blanket.
Picnic!
Yarra bend park has nice spots. Studley park boathouse, Bellbird picnic area (has a loo, also nice park area just a walk away on the corner of Redmond and Wills st). Kew billabong… Took all my exes to those places and always had a nice time. Lotta private places if you look hard enough nudge nudge wink wink say no more.
Thank you!
I remember my dad went to Yarra Flats instead of Yarra Bend and got followed home by someone looking for questionable activities. Yarra Bend definitely is one of those places too though haha
Today I get my final heart results.
The GP said when he worked in the UK theyd often get people who get what I got just once. And they were in their 20s.
Admittedly they’d had a coke binge over the weekend lol
There’s a woman at work I feel like is just suddenly pregnant. At first I overheard her talking to someone about getting an epidural, then I noticed she was showing, and people were talking about her being pregnant like it was normal. She’s been off sick for a bit so I haven’t seen her in the office for a while.
This must have been an announcement on one of the days I had off last week, because it feels like this came out of nowhere for me.
The little goblin man stopped by, distracting me from my photos of Melbcat.
I’ve started giving him the Smitten tuna mince cans leftover from her stash as they’re much higher quality than the pouches and he’s eating more eagerly with those. Having more food. His fur is definitely thickening up a bit and getting shiny with regular feeding and monthly spot ons but some bald spots remain.
I managed to smear some Canesten cream on his ears but I really had to work to do the second one (and then wiped the excess on his back under pretext of patting). I really wish you could explain to them.
The carpet foam is so scented. I have the doors open and the fans going.
spoiler
Was looking in particular at a photo of Melbcat cuddling me a month before her death. A month exactly. She looks so happy. I want my beautiful girl back

A likely member

probably
Tomorrow is the last day PHM is playing at my local, I might go to the matinee again. It’s like watching Interstellar or 2001 on the big screen, an experience to savor
Went for an evening stroll and walked past 5 separate sets of couples smoking js.
Fuck I love Brunswick 😍
A long time ago that was me and my ex lol
I’m a gummy person these days, but the smell always reminds me of different times with friends or solo. Some great memories flood back in.
Sky pretty

So pretty!! Was a lovely evening swim!
Heart results came in:
ALL GOOOOOOOD!!!
Now I can resume my life without the constant paranoia :)
That’s great news!
YASSSSS KING
💪💪
Hell yeah!!!
I went to Aldi. I didn’t get many things due to only bringing one bag and not wanting to hang around long. But I got some carpet sanitizer spray and my friend spotted bottles of laundry sanitizer rinse which is a big win.
Brand is $20 for 2.5L and Aldi is 6.99 for 2L.
The Canesten one is the only anti-fungal rinse on the market unfortunately. It is expensive. I love the Aldi sanitiser but when my mother had ringworm we forked out for the Canestan and it worked.
I was looking at sanitisers recently and noticed they all have the same active ingredient except for the Pine o Clean one. Has Canesten reformulated maybe?
Oh damn. Thanks for letting me know, I might finish this bottle but fork out for Canesten
ifwhen I get reinfected
good bargain and good you went out with a friend
hugs for you all 🫂
ok, happy post 😊
The beach was beautiful the other day after the rain and stormy winds , clean sand and some great shells

That shell is stunning! Never heard of them before.
well shit. Guess who had an adult flea found on them at the vet.
Thankfully we don’t have any carpets, curtains now on the line, next lot of hot wash on, beanbag in a vacuum bag in the sun with diatomaceous earth, goop on everyone… thankfully we don’t need to worry so much about skirting boards and cracks, those get dusted with DE regularly for bastard ant invasions
Full encasement covers for mattresses. Encase, leave on for at least 6 months. Must kill all generations…
Oh do you know where I can get Diatomaceous earth? I tried looking at Bunnings online but it’s a piece of shit website now 😂
Would it be at like, garden stores? I’m thinking of getting food grade for the stupid carpet moths.
Good thing you caught the fleas early! They breed like freaking rabbits 😭
Ebay probably has it still. Get food grade, not the kind used for pools.
If you can’t find DE, silica gel dust is more powerful and you can get a rubber bulb for dusting it finely. It’s sold as Cimexa.
Beware though, it’s super fine so hangs in the air for ages and is an inhalation hazard. Wear makes and avoid breathing it (silicosis).
Totally cool if you don’t want to use it
vitec is the only one I trust, they do food grade. Can buy direct from them, or any place that sells stock feed edit: updated link.
Amazing!!! Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Envying the lack of carpet. If you wanted extra options to spray the house Sundew flea spray has imidacloprid instead of pyrethrins. So while the scent won’t be good for the cats it’s not outright toxic.
And I think it was Capstar that was instant knockdown for the adult fleas.
Yah we have some sundew on the way, also his lordship is picking up some exelpet spray at coles as we speak.
Let me know how it is, I wanted some but don’t know how strong it smells
I’m trying vanilla because I have a genetic hatred of lavender (I’m not even kidding multiple family members hate the smell). Has shipped express today, hopefully comes before da weekend
I am really over this hot flush thing.
🥵🔥🔥🔥
if you don’t have singlet tshirts, buy a lot of them. I live in them now.
I wear that sort of thing when I’m at home, but the bigger problem is when I’m at work. When I’m there I have to wear a uniform and I’m also contending with wildly inconsistent heat levels in the building - even without hot flushes people are constantly having to take jumpers on and off, this has just upped the difficulty level!
Got today off work to get a 24h blood pressure monitor hooked up, I hope I’m able to sleep with it going off every half hour
What a feedback loop
thats gonna drive up your blood pressure
You just can’t win
I had an incredibly bizarre dream about basically Rome being filled with methed up mutants.
Yuck dream.
It was deranged and uncomfortable and there was a sudden rain storm that closed some roads and I think I lost Yasi and no matter what way I went, I was still going the same way. There was people trying to snatch at me.
There was a truck advertising a unethical university and one of the meth heads was screaming it was all part of North American’s Future Travel plans.
However, in the dream I got some very nice mail that made me happy!
I had a really great dream about going to an audition to be a new vocalist for Van Halen. Both Sammy Hagar and Dave Lee Roth were there, as well as Eddie.
We were all jamming outside by the pool with people everywhere doing rock star stuff. It was a very short audition for me because I can’t sing but watching Eddie play was pretty awesome and well worth it. He was so smooth and effortless.
