It is also my birthday and I successfully hid it well enough that a big deal was not made. Good job force
Happy Birthday Force. You are loved.
You are also loved (by me ๐ณ)
Ted Cat says Hi.
Hi Ted cat. I wish to bestow many kisses atop your furry noggin.
CEO says hi to Ted
Shout out to everyone (inc me) who needed a day off today but had to work so is battling though. This is your official approval to go slow.
Friday afternoon shenanigans. Grandma sent an envelope of shed feathers from under her wild bird feeders.
Naaaaaaw
Had a dream I was playing guitar. Lame to explain, but cool to experience lol
Sleep seems to be the best thing for my spine, lots and lots of sleep. Ted Cat doesn't leave my side.
I need to take some photos of the cat guys. ๐โโฌ๐โโฌ๐
Please do! And I hope you feel better soon :)
So I might've fucked up last night. There's a reoccurring theme of me just making the dumbest freaking mistakes these last couple of weeks, i dunno whats wrong with me. I'll throw in a NSFW and spoiler for the mistake part. Heads up dont read this one at work.
So the mrs and I had a bit of a heart to heart last night, kiddo went down early enough that we weren't both too stuffed to talk.
i had a bit of a breakdown, said some tough stuff that was hard to say she gave me a big hug, after a few minute I told her we had to stop cause I knew what was gonna happen (not that I didn't want to, just didn't wanna cheapen the moment with the pants off dance, ya know).
Anyway, this next part is super graphic. I'll tidy up the language as much as possible but feel free to skip.
NSFW spoiler here
She says she doesn't mind. So we go to bed. I.... uhhh, "suit up for the occasion" as is required at the moment.
We get going, and I express my dissatisfaction with the "armour" I was "wearing" . She says I dont have to if I dont want to.
I say "are you sure? isnt there a risk?" She says "I'm not worried". so knowing full well it was a mistake, but not having the blood to operate my brain properly... I take it off.
And this is where I cant help but feel a bit... baited? I dunno. Let me clear it takes 2 to tango, I'm the one that took "it" off. Its 100% on me. But she did EVERY trick in the book to make sure I "arrived". It felt like it was a competition to make sure the finale happened. Ultimately, I... uhhh, "deployed the troops elsewhere", at least 99% sure I did in time. Given we needed IVF the first time I'm not SUPER worried. It was great to reconnect, been a while since that happened, but its left me with more questions that answers.
Was she actually trying to make sure i "deployed the expeditionary forces in the target country"? Why now? Why do we suddenly not care now? Was I getting used? Or was she trying to reconnect like i was? Why the F did I take the risk? Am I really not that smart? or just super into potentially self sabotaging? Is this all actually a big deal? or is my anxiety just taking me for a fucking ride?
EDIT: Maybe this would have been more appropriate on a Relationship advice sub, apologies.
Should the troops be successful in their mission, there are techniques available to remove the occupying force and any potential puppet they installed in power.
Just saying.
LOL, thank you I needed a laugh! After 2.5 years of IVF and $30k spent on the first, I'd say if I accidentally invaded a country then its gonna be flying my flag for the next 9 months like it or not.
Hey, I get it. Totally do. Just wanted to point out that in a currently stressful environment, a new regime may not be in the best interest of the parties. All the best in whatever happens regardless ๐
I think you're over thinking this. She probably just wanted you to be aroused therefore she's aroused because skin on skin contact with the one you love is arousing.
When you start to think your partner has ulterior motives then that's something you really need to work on together or let go of those thoughts.
Also when your partner says "I don't really like putting the rain coat on" it's kind of a turn off. Tough. We don't really want to feel it either but it is what it is.
Exhauuuustteeeddddddd
And Boyo just tried to go to work without any of his keys. Seriously this man would forget his own head if it were detachable.

Covid finally got to me. Grocery order got half delivered so my housemate went to sims footscray a week ago and got the Schroeder Special (coining it as Schrovid). Now I have it so I'm just resting at home with a fever. Quite an anticlimactic end to my covid free streak. Hopefully my chronic fatigue doesn't play up after this. Am I meant to be doing anything other than resting and staying hydrated? I'm just planning on exclusively resting and playing Baldur's Gate 3 for the foreseeable future lol
am just getting over my first bout of COVID myself. Lots of it going around at the moment! Hope your symptoms stay mild.
Food helped me heaps. Even when I didnt feel like eating a big healthy meal would give me an hour or so worth of energy back. Lemonade icypoles were clutch too for the sore throat.

I approve of this medicine
My mistakes are coffee stains on the carpet of life,
Each marking the times I fumbled or tripped,
They fade over time despite all of the strife,
Or I'll scrub them out, while my coffee I sip.
I'm still chest virus sick and I'm having banking and centrelink problems. They can be next weeks problems. I just don't have the energy for a few hours of collating banking records and proving why I have a house deposit but no job. It needs to be done, but it doesn't need to be done today. Plus a third of that house deposit has disappeared trying finally to gather my savings into one account. I can put it on Monday's todo list and forget about it for the weekend. If you haven't moved large money around, I'm pretty sure the banks get sus making sure you're not being scammed.
I just realised the cat tv title!
I do the little titles based on the previous day. ๐ธ
Weird thought, when was the last time you sang out loud our national anthem?
I don't think I've sung it out loud since 2010 when I finished highschool.
In primary school
A leftover chocolate cake was teasing me and looking at me funny.
I showed it who's boss and I'm not guilty about it whatsoever.
That's how I'm going to end my work day.
I have just been informed those fluffy yellow little chickens you used to get in Easter baskets really hurt if you freeze them and use a crossbow.
To be fair I think anything would really hurt when fired from a crossbow
Seems Trump finally won a popular vote. ๐ฅ

I'm still afraid of him being able to govern despite it. Because the foolishness from America always seems to make its way over here
Fellow northerners, has ShotKickers closed down? Supposed to be open tonight, and black curtains on windows, and signage seems to have gone.... website has gigs listed as per normal?

There are so many things I want to do but can't
foams at mouth
Damn, I think I've had enough mountain driving for the whole year. I've had an amazing time but I'm exhausted!!!! Hours of single lane winding roads in the rain and fog with local drivers paying no attention to the speed limits, I've definitely tested my driving skills to the max. This little Yaris I've rented has been perfect for the drive though. The steering is definitely much more light and responsive than what I'm used to in Australia.
e: after some thought I think I'll regretfully can the Shimanami Kaido cycling part of my trip. It's just too complicated and expensive, what with mailing my luggage ahead and hopping between accommodation, not to mention bike rentals and having the wrong kind of bag and paying $55 just for the train back that way.
As much as I want to have more of an active experience and don't want to be that kind of traveller... I think I could get more from a nice accom in a quiet part of Tokyo for 4 days and do more walking and journalling and visiting some cool museums and the like.
