Night bad.

Smoke red sunrise. Can we not please?!

Cats most disgruntled I confiscated the bag of dental treats.

The herbs needed a bit of a trim so I've picked some to dry.

Doctor’s appointment was to discuss blood work. Apparently I’m indestructible

I’m feeling terrible. Massive headache, cramps, miserable inside. I haven’t been out to look for, feed, or pat the black cat since the paper collar attempt because I just haven’t felt up to it.

so many hugs

Another presso for maketing today, 4th time delivering the same content. You’d think I’d be less nervous by now. Reminding myself I know more about the presso topic than anyone in the room so it doesn’t need to be perfect. And breathe.

Edit - it went well! Less people than RSVP'ed but all very engaged and asking questions which means more than people who just show up and listen silently. I have A LOT of leftover sushi catering though, gonna be eating sushi for a few days.

I panic bought more toilet paper and I don't care.

This again? At this rate every household should be issued a bidet…

what's happening now?

I must not strangle the idiot manager. I must not strangle the idiot....

Picture them all in bdsm gear. I've heard that helps.

strangling idiots would never end

It doesn’t feel real. I want my baby

The world has gone trigger happy. I'm prepping.

War with Iran? Fuel crisis may affect supply chain I’m guessing. https://www.news.com.au/national/politics/australians-not-to-panic-buy-food-as-iran-war-enters-10th-day/news-story/793c798a9c5097be3d37c542b6b9a6a3

I don’t want to go through all this shit. Technically I have or am capable of learning basic prepping skills if it comes to it but realistically I’m not physically resilient and wouldn’t survive harsh times.

I’m very tired and if things go sideways I’m kind of hoping something just kills me.

Coles needs to calm tf down with the scan toilet paper first policy. The attendant at self checkouts today was so aggressive, patrolling the queue like she was searching for contraband and getting up close pointing at peoples trolleys and literary intervening at the checkouts, stopping them mid scan and making them put down whatever was in their hand loudly telling them to scan TP or soft drink slab etc first. It’s offensive.

Yeah after covid I always play it safe, when I’m down to half my bulk pack I buy the next one. If the world’s ending I wanna use the toilet in comfort.

we are safe here, do not worry

what if people have a large family?

😡

Don't say that. I was only half joking. My daughter is back tomorrow and all hell breaks loose here. I'm sorry if I upset you.

I was given the administrator password at work so I'm installing every program I can think of before it resets so nothing can hold me back

Lol. I do the same. I have 24 double rolls stocked.

Still the repercussions will affect Australia.

I’m not able to be flexible around food and fluids at all and can’t regulate my own body temperature well. And my immune system sucks.

So if priced out or cut off from energy for heating or cooling, all the soap got bought up like in covid, can’t get the few things I can eat, shortage of antibiotics or iv fluids… I’m gonna have a bad time.

I know his handlers will just fill the eventual vacuum but I hope the orange one’s wipeout is legendary.

so many hugs 🫂

and don't forget black cat , even just leaving a little food and water out would be good

and would make you feel better too

I got watched today because I had a lot of luxury goodies like smoked salmon, caviar and cheeses. She walked away when I only bread rolls left to scan. Yet some poor old bastard was waiting to be let out of his corral. I told him to whack it with his walking stick.

It’s all good, I’m sorry I said that. I shouldn’t have.

I’m a little off kilter right now and also remembering covid times.

Understandable.

He’s always got water, I went out for bins and made sure the gravity dispenser was refilled. And unfortunately I think he’s a good hunter :(

I’m just trying not to get too attached to him because my goal would have to be making him an inside cat, and even if I could handle the extended strain of quarantine ringworm treatment… He showed me he would not accept that life.

Taking care of him ‘casually’ as an outside cat is quite challenging as well.

Maybe at some point I might be more able to engage but right now I’ve kind of shrunk in on myself and am not really functioning. It also feels like a betrayal of Melbcat. I’m feeling terrible like I’ve dumped him but trying to just give myself a break during this time.

I'm at the vet with Miss Meow as she has been vomiting. We got to start with a fun game of hide and seek in the garden. Fortunately I managed to avoid claw marks. She is not impressed with the whole process.

Edit: There was a goat in the waiting room!

Miss Meow has had a blood test done and been prescribed some anti-allergenic food. Now I just need to wait and see for a bit more. Hopefully we get this sorted sooner rather than later - she seems quite fine other than the vomiting, but I'm a bit over getting out of bed and stepping in a pike of cat puke.

It’s not a quantity issue, they have a policy where they insist people scan big items first. I can’t understand it, I’m guessing they think you will steal it? Look I may have gone up a size in recent times, but no way is a 24 pack of TP fitting in my pocket.

I hate it, getting treated like a criminal. (But it sounds like there’s gonna be a super nice platter at your place this week!)

Today i'm hunting wii controllers, making gyoza and springers.

P's left for japan at 2am so I'm off the hook for a few weeks and took work off..

Partay is on! If I've missed anyone let me know.

There will be a talking stick so you can both talk and defend your choice of music.

I think we are ok here. The current petrol price hike might be painful for some people, but big picture is that it’s tolerable in our economy. We are lucky to be one of the richest countries in the world and self sufficient in food supply. Also we can afford higher prices for essential imports compared to the rest of the world. No one is turning the lights out. Most of the current petrol shortages are in smaller towns where people panic bought by filling up jerry cans and farm bulk containers, thereby stripping the servo tanks unexpectedly. The next truck is still coming on schedule.

For peace of mind, this website shows the breakdown of energy generation. Currently Vic is running at 56% coal and the remainder renewables, so no reliance on imports. Aemo
