Good to see my lizard friends still doing well in my backyard, hadn’t heard from him in a few weeks. He went in the garage to do some … thing.

Lil’ bird buddies still around as well and still very curious about me every time I come out. Set up my dogs outside watering bowl that he never uses as a bird bath and I’m seeing lots of these blackbirds and native pigeons using it to splash around in.

Also planted some native flowers I had seeds for in some boxes around the yard to help encourage some more bugs to come visit.

Snuggling with the hairy baby. I love my cat.

Got last minute tickets to Swift last night. Great show but my god the noise of 96k people screaming. My ears got blasted.

Bit of a crowd crush outside the ground after the show but other than that, it was all pretty orderly for that many people.

City and PT busy af. Swifties everywhere

Off to an open house and then it's onto to some hiking! Keen to see what my fitness levels look like, doc said I might still experience some issues, but he was happy to give me the approval to get back to it.

I forgot to post my photo from my Thursday Kyneton lunch adventure.

Magnificent 😙👌

Cheers🍺

Just finished up dinner and trying to avoid going home. I can just hear the TS gig from my apartment and given how much time I've spent trying to get a ticket it just feels like I'm being taunted 😂😭

House this morning was shit, tiny tiny bedrooms (have a hilarious pic of the housemate with their arms out stretched almost touching two walls at once), mould in both bathrooms that had definitely made it's way deep into everything, and extremely old appliances (not overly a deal breaker but you just know it's probably going to break now you're the tenant).

On a better note, the hike went fantastic, just a little sore in my feet!

I went to a short course about the local wildlife and birds this morning. Was daunting (I have been in an introvert hole lately) but was really interesting and the people were nice too. Now celebrating with a late lunch in the sun 🌞

Today's attempt at scones with jam and cream was much more successful than yesterday. No cheese or chives in evidence.

I believe I can say with all honesty until the previous 5 minutes I have never contemplated the logistics of shagging on back of a moose

Another rest day. Nearly better and have to be sure not to cause relapses.

I have not watched lotr or the hobbit in 4 weeks. 😂 maybe 10 minutes

I have been fart bombed by an impudent male. This means war!

My first ever Vietnamese coffee

And oh boy was I mistaken. I thought it would be a delicate over sweet little coffee but oh no it's a punch to the head. Anyway I'm gonna be awake all night ladies and gentlemen. 👀

I also had a bath tub of delicious beef pho

The man had sweet and sour pork

Hit 3 personal bests at the gym today so in celebration, I'm doing nothing but sitting in bed reading and playing with Gibson.

And maybe some video games and guitar later.

Devilled chicken on rice for din dins. My lovely neighbour gave me a whole shopping bag of beeyoutiful beefsteak tomatoes, so some of these will be fritters tomorrow. Draining the cut slices overnight in the fridge so batter won't be soggy. Having one in salad tonight with lettuce.

I'm in that bored and boring lull , the time when I;m still not well and my brain is now numb from not doing anyfing and sleeplessnessless

So I'm rewatching the Fargo series. Oh ya.

and it's making me wonder how dumb people really are , and that dumb people get promoted because it's dumb all the way up

anyhoo, I was trained in the sciences to analyse data in such a way that all data had to fit the hypothesis /narrative as well as fit known facts, no data left out

seem to me most those cops in the show don't get that training

and it's hard to see where dumb and sexist are two different things

Oyasumi

Still cleaning up the mess from the storms. Still no power either. I just want a nice relaxing weekend dammit

This asbestos mulch situation is pretty awful. I suspect it’s no accident to have that many affected sites/batches of mulch. Someone has been dumping asbestos into the mulch process to avoid paying the proper fees to dispose of it? I hope it’s investigated thoroughly. Sadly the environmental laws in aus are weak and poorly enforced.

People at the gym with terrible form yet nonetheless look a million times better than I do

Irritates me.
