The surgery was a success. I was able to move my Majora's Mask save across computers, across OSes, onto the Bazztop.

That was the last thing stopping me from wiping the other laptop and getting jiggy with it

Every night I wake up into this awful sickening void. Melbcatless. I loved her. Unsure if I’m giving myself a break to heal or self isolating.

The trigger of the spray cleaner bottle wasn’t springing back after being depressed so I got in the habit of pushing it forward with my ring finger to keep on spraying… doing that repetitively scraped some skin off my finger and that’s now trying to get infected. I’ve attended to it better and it’s starting to improve but I’m watching.

Haven’t seen the furry shadow around. It’s a mix of relief and guilt.

I’ve sent a get well package to someone, I forgot if they’re a tea person 😵‍💫

so very itchy

My new fitness watch is arriving today arrived as I was writing this message, so I'll be able to start actually tracking my steps. My initial goal for steps should be quite achievable: wear the watch for a week and figure out what I'm actually doing now.

Some weights are expected to arrive today or tomorrow, most likely they will arrive tomorrow with a whole bunch of stuff that will be piled up at my door for me to struggle to move inside after getting home late from Melbourne. Any time you only have one day you're not home that's when the parcels are most likely to be delivered!

As well as the treadmill I'm also waiting on some new scales, as mine died last week after I finally got around to putting new batteries in. It managed one last weight measure, then got stuck trying to connect to wifi and passed away peacefully overnight. Plus some little miscellaneous things like a little whiteboard to write down my plans and some new shoes.

Yay exciting!!!!

This all sounds awesome, can't wait to hear about your progress!

The other day my building's fire alarm went off, and it wasn't a test lol I spent 5 minutes chasing Mickey with a towel to get him in the carrier and then hustled downstairs to hang with all the other resident cats in their carriers.

Took about half an hour, but it turns out the cafe they're putting in downstairs on the street, they're doing renos, tripped it accidentally. No actual fire.

We got back upstairs and Mickey promptly nipped my ankles and calves, until I plied him up with a tube treat mixed with some dry treats.

Woo! Free reusable coffee cup at the conference. I didn't even know it was part of the deal. I've seen these ones around too, they're the expensive ones

I went to a burger place next to a building doing am evacuation one time. All these people came oit together with their pets and then there was this one guy with his golf clubs

That guy had his priorities straight! His place burned down, can't a man golf? 😂

I'd have Gibson in one hand and my favourite guitar in the other lol

Hell yeah!!!

I have 3 cats and a hyperactive jack russell... I'd be fucked getting them all out in a hurry.

I don't think Mr Woof would go well in an appartment, but in a house he's great - he self-evacuates to the back yard every time there is a noise he doesn't like. Which includes smoke alarms, blenders, crockery clinking... He evacuates multiple times a day when I'm home!

Miss Meow would be a problem if she gets scared and goes into hide mode. She's black and can melt into shadows, there is a good chance I wouldn't be able to find her in an emergency.

Lanzhou beef noodles and a haircut please

Something non allergenic please 😿

so many hugs

you're such a good person to care for others even while you are still bereft yourself

The fluffy one would be easy, he'd be under the bed. The dilute torti could be anywhere, and she blends in so is really difficult to spot. The black one would be up high, hopefully I could reach her and the dog.... well she'd be barking at my feet.

My dog would push me out the way to get out first.

more PHM and physics

I had an image of the universe being like hills and troughs , a non euclidean spacescape

and another image I had is of countless overlapping spheres with geodesics

both these are products of the way time time space is depicted in books

but once I remembered that each illustration is meant to describe only one instance, one body, then those constructs are obviously wrong

space is just space, there are no hills and troughs or spheres

all that is happening is one object behaving like it's on a hill or trough or sphere , there are billions of objects out there each going on their own specific paths

I'm still not good with gravity and time dilation, I will study more 🙂

He spent a lot of money on those golf clubs.

Mostly.... the torti is a bitch though.....

And it would only take a couple of googly eyes on the bag to turn it into a pet.

Just had a visit from the local JWs. Definitely one of the less annoying types of proselytiser.

Nice people, terrible organisation.

I'm going to be wearing a coat today 😐

Looks like it's a day of reading reddit again.

Got antibiotics and just as well because my finger is swelling up.

Trying not to lose all my friends with my bullshit 🖤

beach, I will take photos 🙂

Organising win for the day: the box my fit watch came in is the perfect fit to go in my bathroom organiser and tidy up my unruly packets of dental floss picks.

I've tidied up the bathroom cabinet a bit, and a section of the pantry that was a chaotic mix of vitamin pills, pet supplies and a few random things that were far better off elsewhere.

I'm continuing to work on the area of the study that became a dumping ground for all the miscellaneous stuff I wasn't sure where to put when I moved. The plan is to clear out all the excess clutter and tidy everything up and create space for the new fitness stuff.

I hope it was a time of reflection for him looking at all the couple with their pets, and then him looking at his clubs

He was the first one down as well, but golf clubs are easier to wrangle than a dog

I had them not long ago. They started debating me on something but as soon as I said "look, you're trespassing" they up and left. They younger lass tried to continue but the older guy was all nah we really gotta go.

When I was in Perth last October, my partner and I were waiting in the car, in the carpark, and we saw and were approached by American Mormons on a mission lol. They tried to convert us, we politely declined and they left. They were two young women, maybe barely 18-21?, and there was an older man close by keeping an eye on them, I assume like a chaperone.

It was very strange. I didn't think they came to Australia, I thought their missions usually involved going to the global south, not the actual south lol

Tachycardia sucks ass

Edit:

Welp. Ambulance time.

mumble ranting about transport companies Bad juju today.

beach

😯 hope you're ok

I visited the new Rosanna library today. The balustrade pictured here is 10mm thick steel. Obviously it wouldn’t be a single piece but it looks like one. It’s quite astonishing. I’m puzzled by the fact that it’s painted though. If you use a material like that in a way that’s a bit unusual and clearly meant to be a design feature, don’t hide it with paint 🤷

That's a spoonbill at the beach, they swish their bills in the water to feed. I don't see many of them as seagulls hate them and will drive them away.

I also saw fairy wrens, some big ducks, pelicans, seagulls, terns, stilts, moor hens, red cap plovers, topknot doves, sparrows, willy wag tails,

and lots and lots of star fish .

It really was good to see all the wild life even if it was so cold and windy today

take care

sending healing vibes

hugs

I used to expect to hear Allie's meow and would sometimes see her out the corner of my eye. But it was just habit and wishing.

I hope you're doing OK ❤️

Also impressed by the handrail work!

Water company taking the piss yet again. No, we will not be paying the bill for the entire set of units. Just like last quarter. Get your arse into gear for a ream from the ombudsperson.
