    I’m a motorcycle pervert. There, I said it. LOL.

    Guess voyeur would be more apt, but it’s all kind of in the same vein. 😂

    Edit: Probably should have added cars in there, too. 🤣

    Another day, another new bag of potting mix, another infestation of fungus gnats along with it.

    Ugh, just paid for a camp-site a couple of weeks from now for the first time in ages. I hate paying, but I have a few big bits of new gear that need testing, and I can’t be bothered rocking up somewhere and not having a decent spot.

    I was sleeping at the time but I’m sad to to bring this news to everyone.

    My grandma has passed away, only a couple of hours ago. She passed away peacefully from what I’ve been told.

    I don’t know how I feel about things yet. Looks like be taking more time off from work after I get over this sickness.

    I know there’s bad shit going on in the world right now and I’m not trying to be funny but I just finished a coffee and I couldn’t taste it. I just prepared chicken wings, I can’t smell any spices. I’m fucking dirty. Of all the things that can be taken from me why did it have to be food. I’ve added extra chilli to the chicken wings and am contemplating tasting the Carolina Reaper paste the man raves about. I may regret that later on. I’m desperate.

    Please send me pet pics, other people’s pet pics, wildlife to cheer me up. Most appreciated in advance.

    So the local Trichoglossuses are attempting to bone each other which, after the last few days makes me happy.

    6 or 7 years ago I spent a bucket load on Sonos speakers, 7 placed through the house. Couldn’t even afford to buy one these days, but man it’s nice saying ok Google, Play ABC jazz and hearing sultry soothing sounds throughout the house…

      Ask Google to play a cat meowing and watch the dog perk up. Then get the kids to go through the whole animal kingdom. Fun for the whole family and cheap entertainment too.

    Day 15/70: First day of week 3 weigh-in.
    Down 0.4kg. I probably shouldn’t have eaten that whole pizza last night. I tried to only eat half, but they’re just so good you can’t stop. 😥

    I have it on Sunrise and there’s lot’s of dogs on there and they all got puppacinos. ☺

    Also a dog got a little too close the other dog’s anus and the owner pulled him back and gave him that look that says “not now”. We all know that look.

    Also I am going fucking stir crazy.

    Bringing Dad up to moama seems to have been a good choice. I’m up $1000. Grabbing a lime thickshake and a ham & cheese toastie for lunch. Pretty good day.

    There is a vile smell in my house that is exactly like dead rat in wall I’ve had to deal with in a prior place. There is zero under house access and no ceiling hatch. Bonus, it’s in the kitchen. We’re fucked.

      This happened to me once in my old apartment - I went to the pet store and bought this odour eliminating spray which really helped dissipate some of of the smell! Was still awful though for a while so you have my condolences!

    The trip up to Sydney was mostly good. The hotel was kind of shit and sydneysiders confuse my brain, but I find myself very disappointed with our transport system. We do buses and night network better than they do, but they didn’t privatise (most of) their public transport network, and it is very clearly reflected in the way things are run. They haven’t sacked everyone to run things as cheaply as possible, you can actually find their customer service people, although the media has painted all the union strikes as if they’ve gone and set the trains on fire or something, the conditions they unions have won very clearly reflect in the happiness and well-being of their public facing staff. All the guards and customer service people are very friendly and actually try to help

    I’m still going to call them Shitney, because like, I’m legally obligated to hate them as a melburnian, but Sydney now holds a special place in my heart, PT wise

      Took my brain a few re-reads to compute that. I read that a cat was rescuing burning snags and was quite confused about what was happening. I could envisage a cat maliciously swiping the sauce bottle to the ground, but a daring rescue of a sausage in peril did not seem very cat like behaviour.
