Did you know that there's nearly 40g of sugar in 100g of sticky date pudding? You're welcome.

I had one of those malevolent spirits in the house and looming over me bad dreams. ๐Ÿฅบ I wake up instantly and fully alert the second it's next to me. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

It walks. It's male. There is only ever one. They are different ones each time.

I'm ok. It was just a dream.

Hump day! Half there and then it's the weekend again.

Must start food planning. There will be herring involved so far on my list.

Actually hoping there might be some sun this weekend, it's always nice to wake up to a bright sunny day given that I felt like I haven't seen too many of them lately I feel.

If you choose either of those options you will have to class your toaster as a sex toy. Which means you are required to store it modestly in a cupboard, so that it is not exposed to the gaze of innocents. Storing the toaster in the cupboard will lead to vilification and the loss of respect of people in the DT. So you need to ask yourself, is it really worth choosing either? Maybe go for a nice, safe, non-contentious honey.

Quote for reverse cycle air conditioning has been done. Mr Woof was very sus and had to be locked in the bedroom for bad behaviour. I was pretty happy with it though, and the quote was pretty much spot on what the online searches I have done indicated is average, so I'm tempted to just go with it.

The other place I tried to get a quote from I had to leave a message, and when they got back to me they left a message without their number. I got another missed call at about the same time, so if I try ringing back I have a 50% chance of picking the right number, and 50% chance of calling back some spoofed spammer number. Not a great impression.

Just got a full refund on something I disputed via PayPal, with no request for the return of the item in question. I guess it's mine to deal with now? Not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Slight increase in hassle, but also the chance to sell and get some benefit from the hassle. So I guess that counts as a win.

The last D in DRSABCD now stands for deadly bleeding apparently. Might be time for a refresher if you remember it differently.
