Daily Discussion Thread: Sunday 3rd March 2024 💋

Apparently I'm a monster because I closed the bedroom door while I re-strung my guitar. Strings are very pointy at the ends, and would easily hurt a cats body or in particular, their eyes.

You would think I was actively torturing a rather small cat if you heard the wails. So dramatic.

Pickles and potat all labelled ready for storage 🙂

I googled how to increase my blue tooth range and it said to put them closer together.

I'm slowly tidying and cleaning after months of being pretty bed bound

Grinding Subnautica today 🐟🐠🫧🐟🦀🐙🐬🦑🦈🪸🤿

Family visiting this weekend and I whipped up a proper lunch for everyone around my table. Realised it's the first time I have cooked for a group in this new place. And it worked well. It's a small apartment but everyone fit and chilled and it was really nice. I needed that. 💛

The sun is getting very tardy about rising these days, most disappointing. Mr Woof insisted I get up at 6am this morning and now he's gone back to bed and I'm sitting on the couch looking out at darkness.

The longer I'm alive the more I see most people in relationships aren't all that happy and quite frequently resent their partners for one thing or another.

I am honestly starting to think that besides the lucky few, relationships for most end up being a disaster. It's all a bit of a scam.

Here's a weird one.

Neighbour dropped off some chocolate yesterday out of the blue.

This guy complains about my leaves on the nature strip.. cuts his lawn with hand shears. I've only spoken to him maybe 3 times.

He's an odd dude.. but..

then he said which uni degree which I did well over a decade ago.. How the fuck would he know that.

Major stalking vibes.

The Sydney Road Street Party is on, and this is great. Chilling on my balcony with a coffee and getting some free live music. 🤘

HEAR YE HEAR YE, THIS COURT IS NOW IN SESSION.

I am made of regrets,
Of atoms and silhouettes,
A life repaying the debt
Of a misspent youth.
Trashy and uncouth,
Nothing to show for
For the years on show for
A man who didn't know what he had to lose,
While he lost, now I'm a loser too.

3 hours or cleaning. I feel robbed of my weekend.

Just finished season two of The Bear...wow that was some good television.

I watched "The Fall" 2006 today. Such a beautiful movie, visually and the story too. Can recommend. It's only available on YT and it's free, no ads.

Took Minipeelers to an optometry appointment, which I cleverly scheduled when the Brunswick Music Festival started. I love local festivals! I just had the nicest salt and pepper calamari I've had in years, and the fish and chips swoons. It's a great vibe down here and it's only going to get better! I encourage anyone who can to get down here and enjoy the day, there's going to be so much free music and street performers, plus I've already bought something from a couple of street vendors, there's heaps of stalls. Don't mind me I just love this kind of thing!

The days seem to be flying by so fast. Does anyone else remember that old ad of Jimeoin repeatedly sliding past the camera in his jocks yelling "Monday!" "Tuesday!" ...?

New sleep spot:

Enjoy your day everyone 🙂

I'm currently in preserving mode. Yesterday I bottled some potatoes and put some zucchini in the dehydrator. This morning I ground the dried zucchini to make flour and cut a load of tomatoes to dry. I plan to do some zucchini pickles today (and maybe marinated capsicums) and have plans in the next few days to smoke some chillis and start on jam making.

I made plunger coffee today. Sorry I french pressed the coffee today. I haven't done this since maybe last century and it worked first go. I will be drinking coffee all day and be thinking about a nice coffee cosy to make.

How is it nearly 1.30 already

Thought I was going to try Jack fruit tonight. Turns out this tin is less than 10%. A exercise in reading labels better. 😾

Dad turned up with a new kitchen gadget for me. A new, cripple proof kettle that I don’t even have to lift to use.

I don’t need it - I have two perfectly good, fairly new kettles already, the second of which I initially bought specifically because my parents argued my first (basic stovetop) kettle wasn’t safe for someone with my balance to use. I haven’t asked for it. It solves a problem that for me at least fundamentally doesn’t matter/doesn’t exist.

But I have a new kettle nevertheless. And he’s stashed both my old ones on a high shelf I can’t reach, because it’s the only cupboard or shelf space my kitchen has left, so I can’t even change it back.

It’s a good kettle, don’t get me wrong. I just don’t quite know why he decided to get it for me.

Slightly annoyed rabbit

Such vivid dreams last night. The most frustrating part was I was trying to teach some troubled youth about Tim Curry but for the life of me I couldn't remember his name. I literally had to google Pennywise actor when I woke up because I'd just somehow lost it. Even Obama couldn't help me, who rocked up to chat while I was trying to remember the name. Thanks, Obama.

What do I want for breakfast. I do not know

I’d like to go to bed but my rear neighbours are having a party, the drunk singing / hollering is real loud. What ever happened to telling your neighbours you’re having a party in advance?

Making relevant notes about my gym sesh, and it turns out I actually work quite hard?

Not quite sure what these birds are, cockatiel?, but there are 5 of them in my yard and they are astonishingly noisy!

Apple Music has a 'Music of Mardi Gras' playlist today. Very sad to not see NWA's Fuck Tha Police on there.

No rain for another week… going to be doing a lot of watering again…

scrolling thru jewellery stores, i click heaps but rarely buy

so relaxing , so time wasting

Quiz?
