Got 10 people from BFF interested in some kind of craft night, so hopefully that means I can get a couple of people to actually meet in person! I am not getting my hopes up too high though.
A craft night sounds fun. That sounds like a great way to meet people.
Goodnight all. Got a 7am start, which means I’ve got to get up at… counts on fingers early. Starting early because finishing early to take Miniest to a meeting at what will hopefully be her (and my) secondary school of choice. Sweet dreams 😗
Good luck tomorrow!
sending you both best wishes and lots of luck
Good luck for the school meeting 🤞🏼
Goodnight all ❤️
Edit: 5 mins later
I’ve got like a million tiny things to do around the house and stuff
I will make a list tomorrow and just spend the day crossing them all off
At long last, I finally got my results for the Cursed Paper of Doom and managed to scrape through an H1 despite a shambles of a presentation - keeping my final score for this dragged-out degree to a low H1. Woohoo!!!
Congrats!!!

my white orchid is at it’s peak, it’s never looked so lovely, it’s just a mass of flowers
That looks so beautiful!!
Thanks, it has just as many flowers at the back of the plant! There must be a hundred blooms. 😊
You must be feeding those things Brawndo or something
yup, I feed them handfuls of osmocote fruit and vegetable food 3 times a year
literal handfuls
Wow, that’s stunning! I didn’t know they could do so well in this weather
That is absolutely gorgeous 😍
Wow, that’s really flourishing!
Beautiful!
I had the opportunity to see Ozzy and his band play live in the 90’s. He was very energetic and sounded great. Other bands that played were System of a Down, Rob Zombie, Black Label Society, P.O.D, and Deftones. Many others I can’t remember. It was a great day and at least I got to see him play.
Was talking to workmates about Ozzy today - he definitely went out with a bang. Wish I’d seen sabbath live
I actually wish I saw Ozzy in the 80s after he left Sabbath and had Randy Rhoads as guitarist.
Alternately, I would have loved to see Sabbath with Dio on vocals, which I consider just as good,
I’ve seen deftones live and they were amazing!
I’m not a huge deftones enjoyer but I get the appeal. They definitely have their own cool style of sound but it just never hit with me.
That would’ve been awesome to watch 🤘
Interesting new clothing shop(?) just opened in Bridge Rd Richmond. Called Infinite Apparel. It’s sort of a subscription service for clothes. You pay a monthly subscription, and choose clothes from their racks - number of items depends on subscription size - eg $50 per month for 5 items and 1 pair of either shoes or sunglasses. At end of month you drop off or mail back the clothes and pick out new items to take home. They clean them thoroughly and put those items back on the racks for other users. Sort of a circular shared wardrobe.
Clothing quality is very high - natural fibres, well made and in perfect condition. The current stock is clearly skewed to the young adult male - say 20s to 30s who want to look stylish and wear a variety of quality clothing at a cheap price. Most of it is smart casual/casual. I reckon they’re targeting office workers with very little closet space and who haven’t the space/time/inclination/skills to do maintenance on quality clothing. Colour range is about half office-uniform neutrals, and about half brightly coloured.
If you’re a standard size this might actually be a way to dress nicely at a predictable price without getting bored with your current wardrobe. Plus the laundry service of course. Short term business visitors to the city might also find it useful.
I hope they do well.
omg
this reminds me of a pawn shop
I imagine some kind of deposit will be required so people don’t just take the clothes
The bloke I spoke with in the shop didn’t mention anything like that.
I’ve got a sore gum. I think it was from a very hard sausage roll crust. I’m salt watering, nurofening, bonjelaing and tomorrow I’ll numb the cunt with booze.
Got any cloves or clove oil? It can be numbing.
I’ve got cloves. What do I do with it?
Haha !
Meanie
I’m not sure what you mean
Chew the cloves into a little poultice then keep the clove-mash over the sore gum spot. Cloves have numbing stuff in them.
Oh right. I’m feeling a bit better now and I’m not that desperate yet. I’ve got medication that can numb if it gets really bad.
I want to go to bed right now.
you are the best cat dad 😽😽😽
I think I’ll rest up too. Back is sore and I need to lie down.
sweet dreams everyone 😘
Yep. No one gave 2 shits about the presentation. At least it’s over till next month.
Explorer socks. Furry side in or furry side out?
It’s never even crossed my mind to wear them furry side out. I guess you could, but I reckon it’d be less comfy.
I’ve always gone with furry side in, but I checked with both Mr Woof and Miss Meow and they are adamant that furry on the outside is always correct.
Furry inside of course
Bamboo heavy duty thick work socks from Fantastic Variety, worn fluffy side in. Was very disappointed in my last Explorer socks, they just ain’t what they used to be.
velvet socks from daiso, velvet side out
guys at broadbents bemused and somehow suspicious I would be unable to drag 60kg of paving sand down a hill on a trolley. Why, I have no idea. I am not a small woman. I’m built like a fucking mack truck.
sand now in back yard waiting pavings.
