It seems the Miniest Peeler has a stomach virus or gastro. Symptoms correspond almost exactly.. it was suddenly hectic for a few hours there but seems to have settled down a bit now. Looks some time off school is on the cards. If she's ok tomorrow and just in need of fluids and rest for recovery then I can leave Mr Peeler in charge. If not then I'll have to take the day off. She told me lots of kids in her class have been absent due to an illness that still seems to be going around. Maybe people don't realise that even after someone has stopped vomiting etc and appear to have fully recovered, the virus is still contagious for a couple of weeks afterwards? I'll be keeping her home in any case.

Today's Melbourne road shenanigan:
- Picked up some friends from Emporium. Immediately witness a massive 57 seater Mercedes coach get stuck trying to make a left turn from Elizabeth onto Lonsdale, and we all watched on as it spent the next 10 minutes awkwardly and dangerously reversing and trying again around pedestrians before finally managing to complete the turn with the help of the nearby tradies.
On another note, my right foot is sore today after hovering over (not pressing/resting on) the accelerator and instead letting the car's radar take care of the speed for most of yesterday's trip.
Take it from someone who drove 1000s of kms in a car without any kind of cruise control... Use your radar. My right knee is a bajillion times better
Oh yes I love using the radar. It's active 95% of the time we're moving.

Jesus Christ this Christmas episode of The Bear is so fucked and so real and explains so much about the characters but oh my god I want to scream into a pillow oh my god. I think you could get minor PTSD just watching this episode
e: its been three hours, I'm still reading pages of reviews and comments and crying a bit, bloody hell what an episode. I'd go to bed but apparently I should really watch the next one as a nice pacifier
