It's me irl berfday today.
Gonna ride to the beach and see what the ocean kicked up after all that. If I can find one shell I'll be happy, usually it's just rocks. My guess is that it'll look awful after last night.

I've been an enthusiastic Android user for nearly 15 years now, this Google change is pretty scary.
Installing apps through FDroid is no more "sideloading" than installing a game through Steam.
What happened? They're cracking down on non play store apk's?
My understanding is that the author of an APK will now need to be verified through some Google service, in order to be able to sign the file and be accepted by an Android device regardless of if it came through the Play (or alt) styles, or sideloaded directly by a user.
So itβs not quite as locked down as iOS, but definitely a step in that direction (and in the wrong direction, IMO).
I ordered a large cappuccino and was told they don't have "large". They have small, regular and jumbo. I saw small, medium and large.
Don't complicate things please.
Happy International bacon day π₯
Thank you
Going out to dinner with friends. It will be good but I'm very tired.
Doing little bits of odd cleaning while I dabble at a latch hook rug cushion cover thing. I bought it for Miniest for Christmas but she's not as interested in it as she is in trying to make small bears out of felt π so it's a crafternoon at the peelers!
Holy shit. The weather last night was something fierce.
the wind howls through the lanes, railway station and trees
I think I can hear the major construction of bridges about 1 km away
It's kinda weird - sunshine on one side of the house and hail falling on the other.
I wish I could go to bed till tomorrow.
Cheers πΊ
nice weather for snails ππ
grrr, πsocials is still down

What's everyone up to on this cold Saturday night?
I just had some very satisfying porridge. All winter, whenever the evening chills hit, I've been having a bowl of porridge.
Pizza is on its way and using my local fb group to try to find a home for the strays.
Just home after a busy day and now parked in the lounge under the heater
Decided not to do museum. Too cozy at home with books.
I am tired of being cold.
today at the beach it was a bit wild, once the sun was out it wasn't too cold
waves were crashing, no one else was there, no cars or fishing boats at the marina, no dog walkers, trees along the shore line were uprooted, a fence along the beach was undercut by waves and falling down
the beaches were strewn with sea lettuce, sponges of every colour and shape, so many different kinds of star fish, lots of sea urchins , blobs that I think were sea hares? Few shells
some finds, I think in a few days when the beach clears a bit I will find much more
Mmmm, rain noises
My buildings' 'ghost' was whistling all night and the windows were rattling. I think I might just get back under the covers for a bit
Bellarine is copping this hard.
Just saw 2 bright green flashes a few k away then my speakers turned off and on a few times. Whole sky lit up.
Bye bye transformers :(
Got woken up by the weather several times. Hopefully the worst of the noise is over.
Hail on a skylight isn't reassuring when one already has a broken window.
Good morning penguins π§
I must go and have my blood drawn this morning. Then I think I will get a nice bowl of pho... or Chinese beef noodle soup
π₯©π
Something woke me up at 4:30am and I can't fall back to sleep :(
Sorry Gibson
Went to the gym because fuck it may as do something
Forgot I have a double PT session in the afternoon. I didn't want to go but I know the trainer has a client after me so he'd be sitting around for 90mins waiting for the next person.
Blood has been drawn
Bodily fluids have been replaced by spicy beef broth
Time to go home
today's aims
rest my back
no dairy
πsocials still down
