Just had a nice long shower and serenaded my apartment neighbours. One benefit of apartment living is the hot water seemingly never runs out so I'll get out when I'm finished singing and no sooner. Now to go serenade the Westgate and Western freeways.

Toast with peanut butter consumed.

Coffee made.

Listening to radio all morning and relaxing. Yup!

Husband told me after I had finished cooking it's now a xmas in july thing and his fam wants xmas dinner. There isn't a fleeting commercial trendy fad they don't follow. They want to be trendy . 🤬 S'pose I better buy a big chook ( can you even get turkeys or geese in July? Anyway, not enough people, chook is enough , I'm not stuffing it, I think I might buy some pre-roasted )

A Coles chook should do.

Scrambled eggs consumed. I have decided to bribe myself with food to do study - once I have completed one assignment I will have a chocolate chip caramel iced scone (I think that's what it is. It was unlabeled but yummy.)

Watched the Wham! doco last night and now it's a non-stop Wham! party in my house. Think the doggo is getting a bit sick of me doing the Wham! rap to her.

Having a days rest after a busy week. Saw the Barbie movie last night which was actually great overall. I loved it. Had some very clever, very funny moments.

I want to get another beer, but fat cat is preventing any significant movements.

Greetings, I have risen from the dead
Awakened from soft blanketed bed
Much orange spiked into mulled wine
Beer and absinthe, delectably divine
Bratwurst, raclette, pretzel, brûlée
Can't talk, eating, so little to say
Euro-Markt night was fantastically cool
On again, next weekend, go and be fools!

Eye test done. I'm like one notch higher in my script. But they don't have my glasses in stock. So I have to think about either getting new glasses or find my old ones and getting new lenses put in them.

Urgh. This little cold I’ve had for the last week and the dry winter has gotten the best of me. I was sitting in bed reading last night and got a blood nose in one nostril. This morning the other. My nose is snotty and I really need to blow it but every time I do it triggers another blood nose 😫

Yesterday's assignment passed, so obviously the random red dot was not a problem. Fast markers those TAFE teachers, that was a four hour turnaround!

Forehead, meet desk.

head meets desk

Edit: head met desk and has concluded we are not compatible with life. Into a hole I shall go, like a small hobbit. Don't know why I ever left the Shire in the first fucking place fuck fuck fuck

Now I'm back in an office for night shift I've returned to my aimless night wondering. Sadly the building we are in now has no ghosts or stories so maybe I'll go hunting.

Well I got into another fight with my partner.

Guess I wasn’t supporting her when I told her how upset and frustrated I was at not being able to fix things and also being upset at the hand that’s dealt to us and about how it’s stressing her.

I’m tired.

Edit: it was my fault we got into a fight.

I just finished moving and spreading 1m^3^ of mulch using a green shopping bag. I neglected to remember our wheelbarrow had gone to the tip on account of rusting out. Would not recommend.. To quote Bandit, aww me back!
