I know it’s late in the evening but I just gotta share this good positive YT channel about movies. It’s "Everything great about … " . Because I really do enjoy movies, movies are good and just don’t understand all the hate channels . Hate channels don’t add to a happy experience, they make us feel worse. I don’t watch those channels.
Too warm :(
nah, it’s good, warm means I won’t get any muscle cramps
H O T T O G O
IM TOO HOT TO SLEEP OH NO!
I get up to do the dishes and in an instant Ted is in my chair. 🫠
He is waiting there to bite your bum
😂😂😂
obviously
Got together all Elder’s school uniforms from the high school he started at (some things he never wore) and whatever text books, scientific calculator and unused stationery etc there was. Bagged it up and took it to a friend’s house (whose son is starting at that school next year 😬) and just said, “here you go!” She knew I was bringing some stuff around but was pleasantly surprised. I looked into selling it but then I’ve got people coming to the house and only wanting some of it and being annoying… I decided I’d rather just give it away to someone who will appreciate it and isn’t a pain in the arse! I also feel sorry for them; they’ve got no family here and they both work really hard and one whole wage goes on rent. Felt good. Now all that’s left is to get the remaining stuff out of his old locker, they can have that too. I’ve contacted the school twice and they were going to contact me back to arrange a time but just never do. Mr P dropped in one day to do it and they didn’t have any spare person to accompany him while doing it, so it couldn’t be done 😒
Back in melbs. Lotsa drunk people, TAB hats and double sided tape at southern x 👀
E: also the moon and venus are looking very pretty together tonight. Which calls for the second rave choon for today
Sky pretty
I don’t want to know, in fact I already know too much
😱
Well, barely got anywhere with the pantry, but I have a better idea of what’s in there… and packed all my books and listed three things online. My back is aching pretty bad so I think I’m going to pop a Nurofen with dins, call it a night and let myself rest. To be fair I’ve been busy the last three days straight, physically so on two days.
Gonna read one of the books I dusted off. It was a friend’s, we cut contact over covid and I still kinda miss her but this one’s gonna go to the op shop when I’m done I think.
Time for the other Horse race now - the ones our US friends are having “Today” (It’s midnight in New York). It’ll be mostly tomorrow for us, though.
Curiously, the betting odds appear to favour the previous President having a return. I don’t know how much faith to put into that, but if any bunch of people are dumb enough to put that bloke back in charge of the country, they’ll be found in the USA.
It’s unreal that people are boarding up windows in anticipation for violence to break out.
I’d really hate to be living in the US under those conditions. They really take politics to another level.
Also pray we don’t get nut jobs here trying to replicate the actions of those Overseas.
Kind of sad that Sri Lanka, known hotbed of violence and terrorism and in which incensed citizens picturesquely invaded the presidential compound to take selfies, recently had a completely peaceful presidential election with a very different party taking over - one that had links to the violence of the 80s/early 90s no less…
…but here we are reading of people boarding windows up in the US for a presidential election. How things have changed
Nah, the republicans have been ratfucking polls for months, so don’t trust that shit.
It’s really gonna boil down to “do you really wanna shit on a woman of colour so fucking bad you’d destroy your own country”. and yeah this is america so…
The real threat of violence either way makes it very worrying. I have vague plans to visit my brother there next July but a lot hinges on how this election goes, and the aftermath…
It is worrying… and the polarisation of politics in the US is something we need to actively take steps to avoid happening here.
It frightens me. 😢
There is much for us to do, much we want to do, but we are restless.
still 1.5 hours to go till 8pm
We are always awake.
Ticket inspectors on St Kilda Rd. On a public holiday wtf. Just disembarked at Toorak rd
They were certainly fining like their life depended on it at Melbourne Central Swanston St tram stop.
ACAB INCLUDES TICKET INSPECTORS
um, that’s the free tram zone
Not if you’re leaving the tram having travelled on it from the RMIT direction.
Goldfish are healthy and happy. Places to hide, fed, and everything is cool.
Went out and got some iced coffees and cake things from woolies. Went for a walk down the street and back for my tobacco replacement herb mix.
Very nice day
💖goldfish
here’s one of the guys I used to have in Detroit . it was about 14 cm
So I took another dreaded trip out in the day, this time to Bunnings thinking about how much I have to spend with dealing with wasps.
Fate smiles on me when my next door neighbour called out to me and we get chatting only to find out from him that they’re bees and we should leave them for the moment until we notice it get too out of hand then we’ll get a professional in for it.
No out of pocket for the moment thank god.
Also My horsie didn’t place today. 😢
Gym done. House is clean. Washing done. Sheets changed.
I want to go to bed lol
Meanwhile:
I love the attitude
Dark bedsheet owners unite! ✊🏽
To me, dark sheets are cosier, but light sheets feel fresher. I’ve got 4 beds in this place, and a smattering of dark and light sheets, but most of mine are crazy bold colours (whatever Dimmeys or similar bargain stores have that aren’t granny florals).
I can’t do light coloured ones. Its too “bright” I think. I don’t want to wear sunglasses to go to bed lol
Same! All the walls at my place are standard landlord white, I want my bed at least to be easy on the eyes at night. Not to mention stains…
I have an exam in two and a half hours and I just want to sleep.
How was your exam? Hope you felt confident - you’re almost at the finish line!! Yay!!!
Thank you!! I did a very stupid thing and thought I was doing an exam for the other subject. But I didn’t know absolutely nothing. Hoping I passed, even though this subject is going to drag my WAM down!
Sitting under a plane tree on the river bank, watching boats chug past.
Life is good
Heading back to melbs today.
Got a lot done garden-wise over the last few days which is a good feeling. Bit of a rave choon garden Blitz
Inching ever closer at snails pace to a hands off (ish) summer.
Just spoke to mum 2 days after her fall. Turns out she hit her head first and didn’t say that. now vision is blurred in her only good eye. I suspect a bit of delayed concussion. Her hubby is a doc so she’s in good hands but history constantly reminds me that that gen is stoic AF.
