I went for a walk at lunch. It’s heating up out there. I’ve got in early and pulled a WFH for tomorrow - the city doesn’t need one more sweaty grumpy person on public transport in high-thirties heat.
Just picked up a few yummy dinners from the South Melbourne market. Going to slow cook some bbq ribs this afternoon!
I should make the effort to come down here more often.
I made a huge pasta salad. On days like this “help yourself”.
spicy roast chicken is in oven, will do some spicy taters too
I’ve just put a half rack of USA bbq pork ribs in the oven. In 2 hours it’s going to be fall-off-the-bone succulent rib time!
yum
I luv ribs but husband doesn’t like them so I don’t do them
How do you do yours?
It’s my first time! I bought them pre-marinaded from the market so all I’ve done is whack them on some baking paper in a baking pan, covered it with foil and put it in the oven @ 145 degrees for 2 hours. Almost an hour in and my apartment is starting to smell pretty nice.
May I recommend bourbon & cola next time? It’s delicious and proves the point about highway patrol cleaning road accidents with coke.
You are both mad. Ovens?!

Awwww. Such a cutie!
So cute. I wish I had my puddins kitten pictures
🤔
I’ve just discovered that when I turn the lounge room light on, the TV (FTA) starts getting interference and glitching out
Now I’m super curious to know why
Got an antenna?
On the roof I’d presume
Flourescent light? The driver may be going. Bet the ant cable runs near the light power
Yeah it is a fluro, and probably. The light switch is on the other side of the room from where the aerial comes in though. But this is an old house, literally everything is an after thought. Wouldn’t surprise me if they intertwined the bloody aerial and electric cabling
It’s now been 64 days since the Montague St bridge was fed. This is now way overdue. Just commenting.
Been sharing the treats with the Napier St Bridge lately - that got one last week
Someone one the cptsd meme sub said this
It’s like “which layer of trauma are you talking about?” and then my whole life story comes apart like an onion
And I have never related to a sentence so hard
G’morning
*tips cat* m’jones
Is this the urban version of cow tipping? How does the cat react to this endeavour?
A logical follow on from the cat dragging trend?
I missed that trend. Do you mean like this?

Shit sleep. Shit mood.
Have an interview (on line) today, so hoping I can mask my negativity for 45 minutes

Coffee!
Had one this morning and it did the job, I think
I have a meeting this arvo for one of those initiatives that is really busywork to make the higher-ups look good. Will be actively working on not rolling my eyes.
Good luck with your interview!
Thanks friend!! I think it went okay, but some of the questions seemed like they were tailored to someone else. I may have been the 3rd or 4th candidate to make up numbers as they had a preferred one already. Still a good experience thought.
I’ll happily roll my eyes here on your behalf. I’m involved in a fair few of such initiatives myself, and cringe is an understatement.
Slept in, yet somehow feel like I barely slept.
Adulthood is bullshit I used to sleep 6 hours a night and wake up feeling refreshed

Returned keys to rental that I shared with shithead today! Ordeal over.
crack a drink, sit down and really feel this moment. Appreciate it for what it is.
Have ouchy finger. Tripped and fell a few days ago and took a large chunk of skin and nail off my middle finger (why is it always that finger?). I was crossing the road where I shouldn’t have been and tripped over a stupid manhole thing in the middle of the road and I am an idiot 😔.
Uhhhh there’s an uber eats looking bag at my door for some dude called david, nobody called david lives here (and as far as I can tell, never has). No receipt on the outside of the bag and it’s stapled and taped shut. Does this count as mail? Am I going to jail if I open it? I don’t even know how long it’s been there, I didn’t hear anybody come up the stairs
Edit: I decided to open it to see if there was a receipt or a restaurant name or something, it’s literally a white paper bag that says “KEBAB” in a brown paper bag. No shop name, doesn’t even say if it’s uber eats or door dash or whatever.
Sounds like you got a visit from the free kebab fairy, you lucky duck
Oo never been visited by the kebab fairy before! Although I’m not sure how much I trust a fairy to make a good kebab. It’s a well known fact that the best kebabs come from a bloke covered head to toe in hair with a thick Lebanese accent who calls you friend at least twice per sentence and says he’s doing you a good deal. of course, for this to be true he also needs to be working out of a very small food truck parked in front of the dodgiest servo in the dodgiest part of town
It’s also 2am, you are far from sober, and utterly convinced that ordering in a made up accent gets you a bigger kebab. Uni was fun.
Tomorrow visits the…
Harpic fairy.
Or a not so free trip to the GI ward if it’s been sitting a bit in this heat
Yeah, I have no clue how long it’s been put there. Could’ve been up to 3 hours. Though it was wrapped in foil so I’m sure I’d be fine if I ate it
