I thought I was being responsible when I decided that 5 hours sleep was enough and I should get my lazy ass out of bed.
Bup bow.
Edit: about to kick off nap #3
Out and about. Took some serious self-convincing. Overcast, but still feels like burning face off weather.
So many of my favourite chicken sandwiches available I have no appetite for it. Also, weirdo I am I still have hot coffee in this weather… Somehow I have received an iced one. I must look like I need it.
Lost another Wicket.
This could be over by tomorrow afternoon.
Also we’re not even halfway to India’s score.
dinner has been cooked and eat. I had a shake and one thai small chicken skewer with onion and capsicum, no sauce on it.
There is also pineapple fried rice.
num, skewers
spoiler
I rilly want to eat some more
I’m incredibly impressed with your mental fortitude if you resisted. But if you didn’t, I completely understand. Especially with the pineapple. Oh boy.
Anyone around Fitzroy + surrounds know who stocks Honest Eggs?

Great. That’s all I need.
I think the split system using AC is leaking into the roof and wet spots and stuff have appeared.
Only noticed it today.
No proof that it the AC but I can’t think of any recent rain that could have caused it.
Dammit :(
From experience get on top of that asap. trust me.
Just trying not to stress about it but I guess I am and it’s coming out in really bad ways right now
I’ll have to.
It’s appeared in strange spots but I’m not sure how the piping was down and is actually causing the wet spots
Somehow my comment disappeared into the ether.
I am out with the masses after a late dinner of wagyu beef roll wirh dipping gravy. Om nom.
What dis weather, though.
Humid and ambient heat seeping through the pores of the city.
Not hungry this morning. Have made a large jug of peppermint tea which is currently cooling on the countertop prior to being put in fridge. Some essential shopping only this morning, then I’m going to sleep the day away. Punctuated by peppermint tea over ice. Cool change is due fairly late tonight so not looking forward to this afternoon.
I’m looking forward to the rains lol I hope it turns into a storm because a summer storm would be lovely
Not hungry here either. Just going to get a blood test done, pop over to IKEA, then hunker down and snooze for the rest of the day aside from doing loads of laundry then taking them to the laundromat dryer (unbelievable in this heat - but no outdoor drying areas here). Maybe assemble my bed frame. I need a day of solid rest, today’s probably the best day for it.
we’ve had the rain, a small shower and now it’s past
The rain radar is showing a gigantic front headed straight for us, probably around 7-9pm I’d guess. Don’t get too comfy yet!
Still waiting for the rain here…come on sky gods…let me have it!
Big breakfast devoured. Now I don’t need to leave my apartment again today
Far too hot.
There is also about a 50% chance that the air conditioning at work will end up being too cold at some point today, so I have brought in my cardigan.
I’ve got the opposite problem of working in a large non air-conditioned factory kitchen. It gets stinkingly oppressive “I can’t do this anymore” hot. Both extremes of temperature suck. My sinuses play up with too-cold aircon. But I’m thinking of bringing in one of those misting fan cooler things that you put iced water in the top of. I’ll wear it lol.
I finished The House on the Borderlands yesterday. It was ok. Not as engrossing as The Night Lands but still very imaginative and having all the elements of a gothic novel.
I’ve read the Poe short stories just a few years back in a lovely edition called Steampunk Poe, so I might skip them for now.
Gormenghast? It’s been quite a while since I’ve read the trilogy, I find the characters and the world engrossing. 🙂 Greatly recommend. I think I’ll do this, then Poe novels and some HP Lovecraft. These are all rereads of course, oh god I did so much reading in my 20s and 30s,
various renditions of Titus Groan have been sampled, the audible version is best and has been bought 👍
also, art books 🥶
The cool change has come across at just the right time. It has cooled down enough that I could take Mr Woof for our after work walk, and we are done in plenty of time to avoid the rain.
I have stuff to do, made a kinda list. I suppose if work thru it slowly it’s still done, eh 🤷♀️
mmkay, two things crossed off list, the searching thru boxes to get european art papers
