Goodnight all ❤️

I underestimated how many more would come in today. Over 110 entries now!

Unmolded my soap today. The good batch is looking pretty good (although I probably should have put some effort into removing air bubbles). The dodgy batch has been melted down and poured into new molds, hopefully it has been saved.

Unpopular opinion. All social media should be banned. I'm sorry but it's just too toxic.

Saturday is going to be a high of 27 and low of 21. Friday high of 17, low of 7. What a juxtaposition.

Corpse is in the oven with marinade and some chopped tomato, carrots and onions

I’m glad it’s late night so nobody sees this. I just purchased a pair of crocs. How embarrassing but I’m looking forward to the comfort.

Tinyest has started repeating words back to you. Shit is ADORABLE. Bathtime, GO!, Buh Bye and Ball are all big ones.

apparently I'm healthy other than a bad back . Who knew? Just need to lose weight, get a little fitter and keep an eye on stuff.

Today felt like it went past quick. Either that or I'm getting used to work lol

I always have my lunch break at 4pm so I can just leave.

And someone is happy the treat dispenser is back.

Just one day of using the Samsung UI for more than just work and I'm reminded how much I hate it. And the fucking bloat. Can't delete the Facebook app off the phone, only disable it, what a joke. Can't be stuffed dicking around with custom ROMs for this one, I think I'll be using this phone for work only as much as possible rather than making it my primary.

Gonna be hopefully clocking some overtime this pay cycle, maybe I'll get a Nothing Phone 2a or something else with stock Android. Although once again, hisssss at modern smartphones not having headphone jacks

The writing competition blew up over the weekend. Ended up with 83 entries with maybe some more coming in today. I am super proud of the effort.

yay, booking for new glasses has been made :)

this is the first time i'm going to be getting my second pair adjusted for my astigmatism, i just can't have the glare anymore, it's unsafe

Replaced the headlight globe and managed to order my one of my favourite café lunches yesterday over the phone before I got there (the kitchen would have closed before I arrived).

I’ve been intermittent with my hayfever defence and I have been attacked. Ugh.

But… as for today, I have done a load of laundry, started the trickle-charge on one bike, washed and put the side mirror back on the scooter, finished a lengthy phone call and am now at the hairdressers.

Of course, I always accomplish things other than what I should be. 😂

TV and Movie Chat.

Woman of the Hour with and by Anna Kendrick.

I think this movie could have benefited from another 20 minutes. The problem is that suspense over the whole movie was not built up tho individual scenes were good.

There are two ways to show a bad guy. One is to show him doing his evil acts. The other is to show how seriously the good people are chasing him.

There has to be much more screen time of the chasing by good guys than of the bad guy doing evil stuff otherwise we just don't take in the story of the good guys adequately.

So I came away from watching that movie not as affected by the stories of the victims and the victim's families struggle for answers and justice as I should have been.

A good example of the right balance is the movie Zodiac. A few scenes of evil, 90% is the chase.

3 hobbits.

I rewatched the pilot of MAS*H. It cannot be over stated how popular and influential this series was . I have watched the whole 220 episodes , some more than others. It was show I would watch after high school.

And I couldn't watch it this time. Maybe I'm tired of war and sarcasm.

But I did think of the show and pondered how American sitcoms are different to Brit culture sitcoms.

I think Americans like to have many episodes a year in their shows because they like to get to know the characters really well. Brit sitcom is 6 episodes a year and more about a situation and challenge.

I think it can all be explained by The Office and how the show differs in UK and US versions.

someone please put your bins out so I can figure out which one I'm supposed to do.

Went out to check my downpipe fix and I'm not the only one checking pipes.

Fun little mouse head at the back door

Today's rental viewing was a lot better than I thought, heaps of space inside and nice kitchen - but overheard someone chatting to the agent who'd already applied before even inspecting the place 🤡 tf. Gonna apply anyway but ugh...

8.00 am and I'm already in trouble. Ted bit my bum because he hadn't gotten his kangaroo for breakfast yet.

I had a dream I could see death. As in, I could see where people had died, no matter how long ago, as ugly growths and it was everywhere. And I could see upcoming deaths in people via grotesque disfiguring and mold. Rather disturbing.
