Good morning. I’d like to present the DT with this monumental fattyfatfat of a bee

Ted found the stash

Checking in from Hoi An 🍻

The local IGA has a "wall of shame" where they have photos of thieves.

Lo and behold, there's a picture of my neighbour lol

Fucking hell

Thank you for thread @briongloid!

Doesn't seem like it's going to be that hot today.

Woke up to junkies screaming about someone stealing a cigarette.

Soon. So fucking soon.

Hot today. It would be great if you could all refrain from burning things, crashing cars, locking kids/pets inside cars, or doing anything else that forms a risk to life or property.

Big thunder and big rains.

Supplies: Obtained
Apartment: sealed
Air con: on
Couch: comfy
Iced G-string and bra combo: refreshing

Doing the Jurassic World exhibition today. I bought tickets before I checked the temperature so we're doing that first thing and then I think we'll go straight home

Me withdrawing from the ATM...

Finish the withdrawal, find 4 people lining up behind me to use said ATM.

There are 2 more vacant and functional ATMs next to me.

Coooooool chaaaaaaange.

Gratitude:

Grateful for a short week

Fluffball

Wrote a new song with words as well

Forcing the hand of my employer tomorrow (and having interviews lined up for next week)

Mini callipos

Bickfords Blood orange sherbet cordial

Just generally in a good mood!

I’m not eating gluten atm for an allergy trial, saw this ad (jewellery on a fabric strip) and thought, mmm, Lebanese bread

Will be mugging people for their toast any minute now

Happy International Chocolate Cake Day 🎉

Shopping list

new printer

new microwave

googly eyes in various sizes tending to the larger ones

picture frames

BOM app says we are 38.3 deg rn - Darwin is 30.8. Bring on the cool change.

What on earth is this weather doing?! Random bursts of rain, sun being utterly indecisive, random cool gusts... Not complaining though. I might actually finish this entire stretch...

Had a great improvised jam before. Managed to get most of a song out of me which is really nice.

Goodnight all, from human and fluffball ❤️

Heroic effort to catch up after wasting yesterday (and most of this week). The energy for this coming week has been spent but I managed to deal with a fair bit.

There’s still mountains of folding and the carpet has still not been vacuumed but I just hit up anything that was necessary right now, smelled, or could attract bugs.

::: spoiler spoiler ✅ Bedding changed

✅ Groceries ordered

✅ Wildlife water filled

✅ Bin emptied

✅ Litter boxes cleaned (missed one I thought hadn’t been used)

✅ Laundry hung

Bleh. Was hoping to wake up early but had a tummy ache last night and probably didn’t sleep till 3:30am.

I’m going to be a zombie tomorrow if I’m not careful.

Heard an odd noise, went to check. It’s…raining?!

Ah. Double checked BOM and there is the chance of a thunderstorm today. Very weird

Heaps of march / horse flies down here atm, esp. at the beach.

Every time one gets me I can't stop thinking that they're literally sawing into you.

TW contains flies and blood

Cool change and a bit of rain / thunder just hit the bellarine so all of you kool kids should be getting that soon.

Still not too hot outside. Been at it from 6:45 (would've liked to start earlier but this is the best I could do). Let's see if I can make it to 1pm. Fucking temps reaching maximum at 5pm is ghastly

Sky noisy

We were planning to perform a nuclear test but there is a total fire ban. Another day then.

Heck yeah finished up at 2:30, did a full day's work including half hour lunch break and didn't manage to get too overheated. Left when it was about 33-35C. Nearly finished the section, rest is easy to do tomorrow... then the whole area will turn green on the app and look beautiful 🤩

Swung by Laguna on the way home to grab some frozen tempeh (cos I've been craving it for a while) and yellow noodles (really craving a nice greasy mee goreng which will be dinner). But first I need a late lunch which will be rice with a bit of left over veg and a quick dal curry. I am going to make sure I have enough space for the glorious mee goreng though.

Can't wait to make the tempeh later this week. It's the goat of all vegetarian protein

Lovely rando day despite the heat.

• Two walking laps around the park (usually unheard of)
• Spontaneous brunch within brunch hours (the relief of paying under $30 rather than the $40 I’m paying down the coast, ugh)
• Upside down house at the dead end of town (simple, but surprisingly effective and fun)

I downed a pint of lemon lime bitters. This weather….

Hmm even though it says 24 it feels warmer than that outside but quite a bit.

Still awake -_-

I’ve been filling the wildlife water super quickly each night and didn’t see the level so went out to double confirm the water is topped up for today’s scorcher. (And do an extra water of the flowers.) I’d hate for it to run dry from a tiny missed hole again.

Then I see the heavy little dish that had been weighing down the foil pan is gone…

Go back on the tape and some extremely odd acting guy has come inside the property line, stolen it out of the water pan, dropped it in the dirt and kicked it along… then picked it up again and taken off with it.

What the actual fuck man. I swear the people here are cooked and steal just to steal.

Awake.

Slept like a baby thanks to all my walking yesterday. Downside: ow.

Also I missed a spot on my cheeks and got sunburnt. Ow.

My back hurts… and I managed to wrench my hip and knee -_-

Time to find some trash to watch on youtube

Let me just open this pack of ready to eat curry and add some baked chicken to it and microwave with rice. Oh too much chili oil I need to remove some. Only two pieces of potato? Gotta boil one. No veggies! Let me boil some green peas. And then cook them all a bit together. Better add some extra seasoning.

Sky smoky.

Bread is in the oven. 🌞

So the brachiosaurus right at the start of the Jurassic World exhibition scared the boys, but they were fine with the raptor and the scary part with the T.rex at the end. I think they were surprised to see dinosaurs to start with and then got into it

not too hot in the apartment today but hot outside, even so, I've done some housework and am baking a loaf of chili cheese bread

The heat and the public holiday got me, slept all day. Gonna do what I need to do and try the old sleep tablet quarter again tonight. I need to be up for phone calls and telehealth tomorrow. -_-

I was gonna get onto the folding today but not sure if I have the energy.

Saw a shriveled male and female flower pair… pulled the male one open and tried to open up the female to hand pollinate - the female flower came off in my hand. DOH. If that flower didn’t already get fertilised the little zucchini will wither and die.

No flowers on the others. I wonder how much the heat and probably too small pots are stressing these plants.

I watched American Primeval again and it's a brutal unforgiving show, much like what real life on the frontier was like

audience reaction has been interesting, so many people, men, dislike the main female lead , they are even angry at her

and now I see it's because they blame her for the male lead getting killed

people are strange

anyone know of a place that delivers bulka bags of landscaping supplies in melbs? Lots in NSW, doesn't seem to be a vic thing, frustratingly.

Has Colesworth stopped selling the banana lollies?
