Just poking my head in after a very long absence to let everyone know that as of 3:15 today I am henceforth to be known only as Dr. Omoikiri 💪

My kid won an award today for visual arts. She received a $30 Coles gift card which she bought a packet of chips, large tub of cottage cheese and a lactose free drink.

She also got 100% on her history exam. ☺

Back from the hospital. Both positively and annoyingly, results were normal despite being in a fair bit of pain. But I will be getting a referral to a new specialist and also to a pain clinic so that’s a win.

I’m missing the pitter patter of tiny beans. I downsized to a week. It’s tempting to get Melbcat back asap but someone said maybe it’s it’s best to leave her there for a few days to settle in and get used to the cattery just so she knows it’s safe for next time.

Had to call in sick today for the first time - had a sore throat on and off, and definitely sinusey. RAT says negative at least.

Since I work around the elderly and frail, coming in sick is a no-no. But I nearly blubbered down the phone when I called in.

Today I made 108 large lasagnas. I discovered a little hard lump in my hand, right where my rude finger joins on the palm side. You can move it around a bit, it’s kinda freaky. Doesn’t hurt too much but I’ll swing by a Dr next week and get it checked out.

im boredddddd

The house feels empty without Melbcat. I keep thinking she’s going to come looking for me in the shower or looking down so I won’t step on her. It’s probably a good chance to do things like a big vacuum and use cleaning chemicals when she’s not around but I’m still feeling like crap

Okay okay I’m playing Hot Take Thursday too.

I think trams are inefficient… they are so inflexible with rerouting, you can’t have express services, they can get majorly delayed by traffic, and because they can’t overtake, if one breaks down a whole lot get stuffed, and I still think it’s wild you often have to walk into the road to get on/off trams. And new routes are next to impossible to establish these days. I think people defend trams for the romantic charm but I think they are increasingly impractical for a city this size. Would rather see electric buses with bus lanes or fully separated light rail, not this worst of both worlds kind of thing.

KISSINGER IS FINALLY DEAD!

(Sorry if celebrating the death of a horrible war criminal is not good).

Nothing like having some hot fucken dal with fucken toast at TWENTY TO ONE IN THE FUCKEN’ MORNIN’

I really need to make sure I don’t loll around in bed til 12 this time lol. Feels like all I’ve done is bed -> bathroom -> work -> bathroom -> bed

lots of stressful life stuff going on lately, so I’ve dealt with it in a mature way by doing some random retail therapy.

what are some good apps/uses for a galaxy watch? 6, if that mtters

Reminder that no matter how much marketing and weird hype there is from McDonald’s and Americans… the McRib is garbage and they only bring it out once every now and then to capture the curiosity of those who fall for the hype.

Uhhhhm it happened again

You know when you go to Aldi and discover something so you go back and buy 8 packets because you know they’re gonna disappear. I present to you macadamia lamington balls

What do people do for lunches? I’m having one of those days where I want something but I don’t know what. Stare in the fridge, stare in the pantry, decide I don’t want anything but know I’ll end up eating too many biscuits because I’m hungry. And I know it makes no sense to stare in the fridge and pantry, because I know exactly what’s in there because I did the shopping!
