Today’s edition of ‘cats are not dogs’. Bit worried about kitty alone all day while I was in the office (my place is smaller than her normal home). Got home at five and had to go and find her in her little cubby hole. Not a care. Did get a cuddle and a purr though.
I sometimes worry about Gibson but then she basically sleeps all day lol
yeah cats are used to having members of their tribe wander off for days on end then come back like it’s nbd
I have found a few things on the beach just like all those youtube mudlarks ( people who find stuff on beaches and river banks ) . I am excite and have spent many hours researching on google just like a real mudlark. 🤓 It’s all so interesting.
the brown and cream shard of pottery is 18th C agate ware.
the two tiles are Roman mosaic, probably around 400.
The little terra cotta dish looks like old Gallo Roman ware from the 8th C.

I forgot to post the picture!!!
( um, this is all modern stuff. 🤭 I’m just doing a pisstake. )
I was fully ready to believe you!

Another beautiful sunset here 😊
Gorgeous for the first day of winter :)
Came here to say this!
Lovely warm day, the breeze was nice.😊
I actually got out and did some gardening - it was so nice outside today
I was very happy with myself for actually getting out of the office for a short stroll at lunch time, it was lovely outside!
the tide is low, time for beach walk 🫠
i dreamed i was dreaming
You are still dreaming.
nooooo
Ughhh. Why am I such a pack rat. I need to find the energy or the discipline to get more organised.
Might go through a storage bag of ‘nice’ (aka seldom worn) clothes and cull most of the dresses. Inexpensive Kmarget brands and possibly a little dated but they’re still fairly new and nice enough in style that they might be taken by somewhere that gives women clothes for work.
There are some gardening books about building garden beds but quite honestly I don’t think I’m physically up to diy right now. A friend’s kid might like to have them (grandpa could help).
Shredding of paperwork will continue.
I’m mentally earmarking some other things to sell.
It took me a month and an extra shredder to get rid of my paperwork. The horrible filing cabinet is now at the tip.
Amazon is evil but I am not going to get around to sawing the litterboxes down… I managed to find some with a really low side entrance made for senior cats. Fingers crossed that helps.
We’re going back to the vet soon to get a urine draw to figure out whether these antibiotics are working.
How do you get the cat into the carrier to go to the vet more than once
I’m really lucky that she’s pretty docile. She does go and hide in an awkward spot when she sees it come out and try to back out of the carrier when being put in, but it’s thankfully not the ordeal it is with other cats. (For those cats I use trickery.)
The first two times I took her to the vet I laid a line of treats leading into the back of the carrier. Trickery I guess. Or bribery. I hope I get away with that technique for her yearly vax and checkup. I think that I am more nervous about the vet than the cat is.
2 glasses of warm milk later

Edit: You know I should have just harvested the pumpkins while they were various colours in order to paint a picture of them. Sleepless thoughts.

These dog walks are such a mixed bag.
Today’s highlight was going prone in the middle of camberwell road (again) and refusing to move because he saw another dog in the distance lol. I dunno how they do it but I swear dogs can make themselves heavier when they don’t want to move.
Told off some ticket inspectors yesterday for not helping a little ol’ granny get her pusher on the tram. They were extremely combative and aggressive lol. I’ve seen one of them before having a real go at a young foreign lady so it felt good.
You’d think they’d be seizing every opportunity to tip the karmic scales in the other direction.
Cowards who’ve been given a modicum of authority. Repugnant pieces of shit.
There used to be tram conductors whose job was to help people. The ticket inspectors are just there to collect money
I truly believe part of the purpose of inspectors is to make passengers feel bad and frightened
passengers who feel bad and frightened are less likely to demand a better service
I remember the on the spot fines were so people wouldn’t contest fines in court since Myki wasn’t sound enough to holdup to legal scrutiny.
The inspectors were just there to scare people into making a quick buck so they wouldn’t contest the shaky system the tickets were built on.
passengers should refuse on the spot
Youtube Music suggested an artist called Phyllomedusa to me this morning. At first I was skeptical it was AI as he’s put out 6 albums this year alone. He’s on Encyclopedia Metallium and has been at it since 2007, consistently putting out multiple albums a year in the ‘froggrind’ genre, of which I think he’s the only member.
It was alright, snare was a little pingy. It makes you feel like you’re doing something right if the algorithm recommends something so weird to you. Better than all the regular artists they push on you.
‘froggrind’
That’s definitely a term right there
There’s a real frog and nature theme running through his work. I wonder if he’s like a biologist or something and just makes harsh noise goregrind on the side
I wouldn’t be surprised. Field biology can get a bit boring I assume. Might as well record shit to pass the time.
The first ride to work on the new bike went well. I didn’t properly record it but it seems like it takes about as long, could be a little bit faster than the regular bike. I also didn’t feel sweaty or the need to shower, so there’s a massive time saver there as well.
Overall, I think this has been a good move and I’m really happy with it
What fuckery is this? My jigsaw has an extra piece.
we need a picture
Kept me out of mischief for much longer than most other $10 things would 😺
Oh that’s awesome!!
Better an extra piece than a missing piece!
Well yes, but very confusing until confirmation it really doesn’t go anywhere.
That means someone out there is missing a piece. That someone wants their money back.
This has happened to me before. I felt blessed by the jigsaw gods.
Went for a lunch break Pokemon Go stroll and caught a shiny Chansey!! WHEEEEE!!!
