Went for the most amazing drive down Glenburnie Road last night. A hill climb, a massive dip, a sudden roundabout which lead to a twisting descent.
And the fog, it caught people’s high beams as they would come up crests in front of you. Such a great drive
There’s some rumours going around that a Brewery might buy the Bendigo Hotel.
But which one, given that quite a few are going broke. Where are the tanks gonna go as well? Sacrifice the merch desk area, or beer garden.
Any clues which Brewery? So long as its not Moon Dog I’m happy.
Someone from Geelong? Nearby Collingwood brewery that needs a bigger space?
That would be interesting. As long as it stays a metal venue I won’t mind
Finally got around to some of the cleaning that I’ve been putting off a while. Not the best day for it, but at least the house is now tidy. Ish.

I wish I’d stop switching between hobbies/projects as fast as I do, I feel like I end up wasting so much money. I start working on a project, order some of the stuff I need, spend hours researching it, and then by the next month I’m already in another hobby hole and start ordering things for that. It’s an absolute curse. I’ve got so much crap I got specifically for a project just lying around
It’s not even because I properly lose interest in them, it’s because I find something else I want to do and being more recent it sits further up in my mind. The net result is rather than having 5 completed projects I’ve got 25 only barely started ones
It’s normal to have many projects on the go at the same and at all different levels of completion. NORMAL.
Work on the ones you feel inspired to work on that day.
Fuck where does this expectation and guilt about art come from? School probably.
But every artist I know has lotsa stuff on the go all the time.
My problem with this is having things come up and not getting back to them for a while, which then just never happens. I don’t get to work on things enough to make a habit and get momentum
Thank you for the encouragement and motivation to quit, I appreciate the support immensely and sincerely 😭💜💜
For those who asked: I use patches and an inhalator. Today, I signed up for QuitMail and cried to Quitline and made a proper plan to follow.
Again, seriously, thank you. I’m so grateful to be a part of this community, full of all of you beautiful humans 💜💜💜
I found the patches helpful. And the Quit app. If I can do it, you can too!
You can do it!

You can do it!
If you’re ever finding it near impossible: you can buy a cheap vape and very gradually dilute the nicotine solution down until you’re weaned off. I’m aware the media is very anti-vape now but the dangers are from particular things (especially in black market vapes). With care taken I got off the cigs and then quit the juice.
Doctors may still prescribe nicotine for the purpose of quitting.
We’re all here rooting for you. 😐
I feel better after the walk and having a late lunch of pasta with zucchini, basil pesto and tinned salmon, but I still feel a bit like a ton of bricks has landed on me…
I need to start looking at cars this weekend and have nothing lined up yet. Ugh I better wake up feeling better tomorrow. Going to force myself out of bed before 9
I went to IKEA for the first time today. My good it’s a bloody hoot! I love it. I got the Swedish meatballs with jam and a blahaj (I’ve wanted one for yearrrrssss)
Baku ♥️ IKEA
It’s a great time, and you get some decent, cheap food to boot.

That bed looks very occupied to me… access denied.

But as with all cats, her attitude is much larger than her mortal body 😽

Try a hot water bottle for her - with at least two covers on it or thoroughly wrapped in a towel. Put that in one corner of the bed and I reckon she’ll gravitate to it - leaving the rest of the bed for you.
And 2000 times as important, Peasant!
The Mrs car smells like farts with the heater on. Still unclear how she’s screwed me outta both my pride and joy Impreza AND its replacement new suv inside 12 months, but here we are.
If Mama not happy, ain’t nobody happy. This is the wisdom of the ancients. You have an instinctive understanding of this eternal truth.
All smoky from planned burns over in the next valley.
While I was eating my wicked wings this popped into my head
mild coffee at 8 pm? yes, please, I need to shake this coffee headache
Flat has entered the 21st century 😎
