Went to one of the RISING festival events last night, the shadow spirit. Really enjoyed it and there were a lot of interesting works on display. Some of the works are a lot better than some I saw at the Dark Mofo this year

I am so goddamn done with today. I’m going to eat my chicken nugs and my mash and my peas and my gravy….and then I’m going to bed

Just noticed there is a Bot Blocker on the aussie.zone registration page. Neat.

For those still so inclined to check any sniffles for COVID, Melbourne city council is handing out boxes and boxes of free RATs that are set to expire in August. Just go to the customer service office (not the visitor info centre) and they'll sort you out. Better they get used than don't.

Brrr. Zooks woke me fiveish and proceeded to her 'feed me, bitch' mode rapidly i.e. biting at my fingers. Horror.
All fed now and I'm back under the doona with more tissues.
Morning all. shivers

Unconsciously coloured coordinated my outfit today lol. Usually I’m that oddball but grabbing clothes to wear in this wimdy day, I just so happened to pick black and gray and I’m 😆

I feel sorry for Tassie, completely absent from the Aussie Zone logo

I found the place that makes Sandos and now I’m salivating so much I regret not wearing a dark shirt today.

This following post is well overdue due to the protest.

Indonesian village life:

• Chickens everywhere. Sometimes playing games of chicken with motor traffic

• 5 minute trips turning to 20 minute ones. The extra 15 minutes comes from pulling over multiple times for chats because you just passed a friend or family member

• Wood fire cooking

• Motorcycles everywhere

• Congested 4G mobile internet

• Greeting almost everyone you pass by. Special emphasis on the elderly.

• Well water. OR walking to fetch water from a nearby river or creek.

• Burning rubbish (for waste disposal)

• Use of water and leaves to clean yourself after shitting (no toilet paper)

• Groups of kids asking passing truck and bus drivers to blow their (sometimes musical) horns, then cheering them on once they do.

• More chickens everywhere.

Hello hello, feels like Friday but it's not.

Lunch note theme for this week was space. Friday will be fantasy day.

A movie I ordered from eBay more than a month ago finally arrived. Can't wait to watch some Unicorn Wars. It grabbed my interest when I first came across it before.

It is certainly a cold day today to remind us it is winter solstice. A good day for warm food and lots of extra layers I think!

Thanks to the DT for microwave potato hype; this tip meant the dinner I made for friends tonight was on time (and delicious) 🖤

Decided not to waste the day and took mini peelers to Broadmeadows shopping centre. Aah, suburban shopping centre food court Asian food, how I have missed you! I know some people hate it but it's like the bogan Chinese food of my childhood and I have a soft spot for it when it's tasty. Mmm black bean beef 😋 Got myself a Dr Strange tshirt as well!

Time for some peanut butter toast.

I've been away overnight so the heater has not been on for a while, came home to 12 degrees inside. 🥶

Miss Meow is making up for lost time, demanded lunch & and has now claimed my lap.

@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone omg your Asian blue bowl does it have dragons on the bottom because if yes I hit jackpot and there’s several different shapes

Have woken up with what feels like really inflamed tonsils. That's a new one for me. Cough reflared a few days back. Thanks, body!
