Cat starts OCD drugs tomorrow. I am in very many minds about this. Love his vibrancy but eating furniture is not ok.

First thoughts this morning:

  1. There was an earthquake?
  2. There's a place here called Rawson?

I wish humans didn't have toes. Toes are fucking dumb. Can we evolve already?

Cheers cowboys and cowgirls. 🍺 yeeha

We've started off with The Drifters Save The Last Dance For Me.

Tonight's game is double ups but there's 3 artists that have 3 songs in a row so my job is to pick at least one of them for a cup of tea in the morning.

boring me is listening to screen music again, ( I've always loved screen music, been buying soundtracks since the 70s ) Today it's The Mandalorian. I love all the Morricone influence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkmgTsZinJo&list=OLAK5uy_k7Y4vzaRirT7D4XSmysa_i2AEtZ9_0-b8&index=2&ab_channel=LudwigG%C3%B6ransson-Topic

Well... I'm set for if my chair legs die on me.

For the past couple of weeks I've been in contact with someone at the company my computer chair is from. And last week I had an issue where I couldn't remove the chair legs from the piston and two weeks later I finally got the chair legs sent and I got sent 5 chair legs...

I'm not mad about it but I'm just confused AF.

Edit: I HAVE A SEAT! I had to use olive oil to get the wheels off of the old legs but I finally have a seat! Now I don't have to use a dining chair.

Edit²: Yep, just got an email back from the person I've been communicating with, the 5 legs was indeed an accident. Oh well. If anyone breaks their Anda Seat legs, and you need one in a pinch, then I'm your person.

My best decision today was buying a big slab of baklava at lunchtime. Yummmmm.

Covid lockdown effects.

I just don't seem to dress well anymore. I have lovely clothes, new clothes, but just can't seem to be bothered at home, it's old pants and oodie.

Tho I did have such stylish covid masks ,

Rehydrating with some beers after a good workout and some home-made pizza.

Fireplace is on and between kids watching YouTube and me scrolling through insta reels.....I'm ready to pass out.

Fat cat is circling the couch with an angry look as her regular spots are all occupied.

I choose this thread, sorry duneman

(Though, I do think it's worth keeping the year in the title, if for nothing more than making searching a bit easier in the future)

[–] MisssDarylC@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have added the year to the title for ease of searching in future, you have made a very solid point.

No worries. This one was posted first anyway.

Didn’t quite make it in time since I was figuring it all out.

Had such a broken nights sleep, I blame the earthquake. No work for me today, which is lucky, coz I am finding the braincells are not firing at all this morning.
