Season 1, ep 03 of 'please put the weed burner thing down'.

A sausage roll with little chillies and sriracha

NSFW potatoes.

My potatoes are weird. I had to peel several bags of these fuckers for work

That's only a sample. Other potatoes are a bit shocked

Are anyone elses vegetables doin' this?

:)

Ordered 3, got 4.

Fave spot too was free.

Goodnight all, from the treat servant and his goblin ❤️

Low-key excited for my trial meeting tomorrow for a CPAP machine. Renting one for a month with the option to trial different masks and with help to track how it's going. I just want to wake up feeling like I've slept 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I just received my final electricity bill for the old house. Due to a combination of set monthly payments and the govt. contributions I am well ahead on my payments so will be getting nearly $300 returned to me. 😀

Edit: I've also just realised I got the govt. relief payment twice. It's paid per household not per person, and I had power on at both properties with an overlap of about a month. The timing was just right for me to get the payment for both. I thought I'd lost money by being lazy/distracted and not cancelling the power at the old place earlier, turns out it was a good thing!

Holiday was great, but it's good to get back to this doggo.

Long story but I have a band audition next weekend.

A silver lining to what was an absolutely fuck wit of a day.

I'm reading The Luminaries at the moment and it's the sort of mystery story I like.

It reminds me of Raymond Chandler because you're also trying to figure out what the mystery is. It's not a simple case of 'someone died, who did it?' It's a much more complex case of 'what the fuck is happening?'

Also, it's set in New Zealand during a 19th century good rush so that's somewhere different for a story.

Audiobook review. Chocky by John Wyndham. An alien makes esp contact with a 12 yr old boy so that it can teach him about the world, the universe and to help humanity.

I'm listening to a lot of 60s science fiction, it seems a bit more creative, less character based, more tech based, than a lot of newer fiction

this book was subtle, I will have to think about it some more

I do like how the message is overwhelmingly positive, humans can do positive things to improve their lives and improve the world. Humans are also co-operative, working together to figure things out.

I may have put too many mushrooms into the pot….ooops

Pizzas on sale today... pants have been feeling tight recently... but pizza... after the day that was... pizza. At least it is economical enough to last for 3 meals. Then I might watch something. Red Rooms has been on my list after it was mentioned in the DT

E: gotta love Quebecois French and how they randomly drop in English words with a totally North American accent.

Bleah, back to being cranky pants again today. Feeling bristly when people ask the prerequisite "what did you get up to on the weekend" and I don't have anything exciting to say like a fishing trip or running a marathon or whatever so they tune out anyway. I know it's a nicety but like I wish they round just skip the question, neither of us enjoy it at this point. And I don't actually want to hear about what most of my colleagues have gotten up to because it's not in my wheelhouse anyway and i can only feign interest for so long.

Ordinarily I'd just bury myself in work but we've run out of stuff to do and the only stuff left is some very very tedious document updating which I've already spent a lot of time on and I'm dying of boredom send help. Almost tempted to start chucking sickies...

Zoomies 😲

Animuls quiz

5/10 better than I thought I'd get.

So I start a new job on 28 July. Having a break in between doing house related stuff. Official last day from my previous job was 11 July. Still no email, text, phone call regarding handing back all my IT stuff, still have access to everything....

Let this day fucking end

It's called 'the witching hour' because witches are up at this hour. What they don't tell you is that the witches aren't up brewing potions or cleansing their crystals with the light of a gibbous moon; they're up because their cats have the 3am post-poop zoomies and are causing havoc in the pantry.

I vote that everyone gets a potato cake today at some point.

And no this isn't a democracy.

New uniforms are being handed around at work and I haven’t been allocated one since I’m leaving, but there’s still no actual end date for me yet so I’m feeling a little bit pissy about it, which is stupid of me. I think the fact that it wasn’t addressed, I was just taken off the list, makes me wonder what else I’m being left out of.
