    Yay, I have clearance to “piss off” early today. Just have to make a site visit quickly, spend a little time there and go home from there.

    Should be home before 2:30 today.

    Just in time for the cricket and a late lunch!

        Yeah, or maybe some shade cloth?

        There are shade cloth triangles you can stretch over an area tying at the corners but you need something to tie it to like a fence. If you don’t you can make a temporary box frame of pipes and drape a sheet over.

        I have a cat enclosure I could use for the purpose but it’s too small to use with how I spaced the pumpkins out in the ground. And the tomatoes with their stakes are too tall.

        If I could have prepared better and had more money I would have had some kind of plan. I don’t really have the time or energy to sort it out beyond pulling the smaller pots in and giving the bigger/in ground plants water -_-

      That’s a view and a half.

      Weird story. Went to St. patricks cathedral with an ex and her aunt (who was a devout catholic). She was bangin’ on about how god was everywhere ‘like the internet’. ‘In walls, in the air’. A few hours earlier she asked me to set up her wifi / chuck in the router password on her phone to use ex’s internet at ex’s home… so I asked her if god forgets his password too.

      Didn’t go down too well.

    Already been too and from work.

    Still feel like I’m asleep.

    Also for the first time in ages, my alarm woke me in the middle of my dream, which from what I can gather was distressing.

    Crap way to start the day.

    Bit of an itch to scratch with medical dramas so I tried watching Brilliant Minds. Dear lord this is absolute schlock compared to The Pitt. The direction is cliche, the dialogue is revoltingly bad and Zachary Quinto absolutely can’t act. Terminated

    Maybe I should try watching Scrubs some day… maybe that could be my treat when I finish uni.

      How is The Pitt?

      Someone was trying to recommend me to me yesterday at work and told me a little bit about it.

        Late reply, it might be a bit triggering if you have had any traumatic experiences in medical settings including the care of others (this is why I haven’t recommended it to my brother). Or cathartic, depending on which phase you’re in…

        Lots of high praise from drs about the accuracy of most medical details but also the dynamics and characters, environment etc. To the point that it’s a bit too real and too similar to work so not enjoyable for some haha.

            Oh boy. Some scenes are some of the hardest to watch ever haha I screamed at the TV. They’re not very long though so you can look away and not miss much.

        I’ve been thinking about watching it after reading all about how The Pitt is basically the spiritual successor of ER and how that show was the OG premium medical drama…

        I absolutely can’t get into a long show until I finish uni though because I can totally see myself avoiding my commitments by binge watching for weeks 🥲

    Everyday, I wake up and I feel like I haven’t really woken up until night time. So I go the whole day metaphorically staring into space.

    Maybe I need to start taking iron tablets again.

      You can get the 100 pack of Maltofer for ≈$53.90 by price matching at Chemist Warehouse at the moment. There’s also a new catalogue starting tomorrow and it might be on special, usually they take it down to $55.

    Good sirs, if you are going to have the balls to charge 25 dollars for a Calabrese salad then, for the love of god, the tomatoes better not be CRUNCHY. And the cheap arse everyday toms from the supermarket. 😡 It’s only three ingredients FFS.

    This is what I get for thinking I am going to have a little early treat because I have been disciplined this year so far. Back to home cooked.

    Arrrgh, adaway via VPN is not blocking in-app ads and I am SEETHING - it’s like getting STDs on your phone, these disgusting full screen sound on ads are absolute cancer after decades of blocking ads successfully.

    Will need to hope and pray the DNS blocklist method works again later this week
