We have a few new guests for dinner. They're definitely siblings
Yep. They have white socks lol
Mmm. Tired. I’m going to chill in the shower for ages
I wish there was a “fountain” arrangement where your bath water was cyclically pumped back up and showered over you while being kept warm by a heating element.
You could use a submersible camp shower pump and top it off with hot water every now and then.
Woke up to early pakidge on my day off, so i can set everything up and play around with it today.
My numpad arrived and it's bigger than i expected. A different type of clicky to my keyboard but it feels good. It looks like a futuristic phone from the 80s.
I'm calling you from the future:
future:
Calculator vintage 1985 vibes intensify.
I forget which model this is exactly but they do versions based on the NES, commodore64, and some others. I just got the one that would best match my keyboard because I didn't need to pay the premium for the keychron numpad
That is so fucking cool!
Neighbours are playing "we are early birds and think 6am is a reasonable time to fire up power tools". Dangerous game to play next to a woman who thinks midnight is an early bedtime and likes metal.
Especially since His Lordship is in KL right now so there is literally no stopping me
I just want my long weekend Is that so much to ask?
I forgot it was a public holiday tomorrow. 💰💰💰
No. Akshully, today is really Friday even though it's Thursday when written down. This may be a comforting thought.
Sleep screamed again last night. Second night in a row. I think it has to do with sleep deprivation. Last night, I slept for five hours but I did stay up late to do an assignment and woke up early for work. I didn't even procrastinate that one so much. I reckon once I work on my time management, the sleep will be better too. I have broken down all of my assignments using a planner and have specific time frames to do each step!
I think it's time to speak to a GP about the screaming.
Yeah I might. It's affecting everyone else's sleep too.
If you have a smart watch, check how much deep sleep you are getting. It should be between 1.5 to 2 hours every night. Not saying that's the problem but that's what you should aim for, for a restful sleep.
Yeah not looking too crash hot! I would've been in bed for about 6.5 hours last night but only got ~5 hours of sleep. 
That's not too bad but I think you could benefit with more. Now look at your REM. You also need between 1.5 to 2 hours. Both are important.
If the screaming is happening with in the first few hours of sleep it's probably deep sleep related. If it's happening more towards the morning then it could be REM related.
Overstimulation during the day, both physical or mental, could also give you sleep problems.
REM sleep this week has been just over an hour. The only time I've woken up after screaming was approx 1.5 hours after I last looked at the time. I thought this was REM related. But I think the silver lining in all of this is that I get to revise sleep stuff, which will be helpful for my teaching :D
Thank you for your wisdom! I do wonder if you've worked in some kind of health related field or if it's just a general interest thing.
Right. 2 interviews next week. One is a "if we like you no 3 stages bullshit" the other is 3 stages bullshit lol
Putting out roughly 20 applications a day. I reckon the one and done is a good chance and I actually want the job. The other would be a stop gap.
20 applications a day wow. I hope you land something good soon.
Pretty sure the LittleOne has stolen my earrings. If somebody could make him confess his stash location?
Waterboarding works, they'll confess to anything.
Most of my managers and coworkers are away and I've been working all my days off & weekend. I am going to make some new corporate T-shirts with my own logo and see how long it takes people to notice.
Any suggestions? I'm in the water industry, so maybe "Wetwork"?

The new bone conduction headphones are nice. The old ones had touch controls so i had to layer them over my helmet or the strap would pause what I was listening to. Can't beat physical buttons
Been freaking out over a new thing on Melbcat’s muzzle (hoping it was just a booger but looked like another precancerous lesion) however she’s now knocked the scab off same as with the first one.
I’d already been told to wait until the first starts growing back before she can be prescribed the cream to deal with it and will probably be told the same thing here, but I did get photos beforehand and will be monitoring.
She’s still eating well, climbing into visitors laps for cuddles, asking to go outside, throwing hands with uninvited cats and jumping up into her favourite chair by herself. She’s doing really well and enjoying her golden years.

If only. She sounds like a gorgeous cat 💕 I hope everything turns out okay
She’s absolutely beautiful and a cuddle bug. I hope she’ll be ok too.
💕💕
Which pop star would you sacrifice first melba?
It really depends on who I’m able to grab 🤔
Cheers 🍻🍻🍻
🍾 🥂 cheers!!
As long as I buy them one bag at a time I can get free delivery from Bunnnings on things like bags of potting mix. Very tempting to make lots of little orders...
Today I have been making Lego, but not that sort
Send me more flavour ideas, if it's ingredients are in the house I'll make it 😺
Oh these look SO cool!! What flavours have you made so far??
Raspberry, salt lime, honeycomb, coco rum raisin, boozy orange, caramel, mint.
An idea for white would be great just for colour balance: the best casts will be a gift
What are they made of? White could be coconut, yellow could be lemon.
Chocolate! The limit is too much water or booze so it splits and goes grainy
‘Cheesecake’ filling for the white? If the heat of the casing wouldn’t curdle the cream cheese or it wouldn’t have to be shelf stable for long. (I’m assuming chocolate or candy melts)
A lemon cheesecake or buttery vanilla/white chocolate flavour could round things out nicely.
Edit: Here’s a white chocolate filling https://anitalianinmykitchen.com/homemade-filled-chocolates/
