It’s late and I’m not sleepy.

About that… full of antihistamines. Awake ought not be.

Melbcat has another uti - or the previous one still isn’t gone. My poor little pudding. I’ve shelled out for a lab culture and we’re looking at a stronger course of the strong antibiotics (with a risk of blindness).

She’s getting force fed pain meds to ensure she’s covered. I’ll look after her

You're doing great, melbs, melbcat will feel better under your care πŸ’œ

No greebles here.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Miss Meow caught all the greebles earlies tonight, so I should be alright. Sleep well, I've heard greebles don't bother drunk people, so you should be fine too.

I hate doing the dishes. That is all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Me too. Its endless. I try to minimise creating them when cooking but they spawn anyway from whichever circle of hell they arise from. Forever. Until death do us part. Or maybe not, if that’s the particular hell I get assigned to in the afterlife.

Worse chore than cleaning the loo. Hate it!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I always splash myself like an idiot

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I don't mind doing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen. I hate putting the dishes away.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

When I'm at work (food manufacturing) I don't mind because I'm getting paid for it, so when I'm doing it at home it seems an especially thankless task!

If you have the bench space get a countertop dishwasher. Highly recommend. Life changing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I had a great ride with the boys this afternoon. It's great to have nice weather and a bit of afternoon sun again.

We caught some of that light sun shower so we got to see ac rainbow on the way home

I fucking hate the new underlining of text on reddit videos.

it forces people to read at a pace set by the video, not their own pace

it also ignores the fact that most people read in blocks of words, not word by word

it really makes the whole site worse

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Speaking of hate, I hate the new ABC news website redesign.

It looks really bad and ugly when I’m browsing it on my desktop.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I maybe look at abc once a monthπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I check ABC news most days, BBC World News maybe once a week. I don't really gets news elsewhere except reddit

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I have a look at thenewdaily, theguardian, theage and aljazeera a few times a week so it's not just reddit.

Can someone tell me what planet is in retrograde or why I have such random anxiety today? There's no reason but it's been shocking all day. I had a great night's sleep last night too...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

what planet is in retrograde

Earth

But seriously it could be changing seasons or everything just kind of being stressful

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

It’s either anxiety or just an off feeling all day here too.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I just did a tarot reading for my partner lol this is weird to see this.

I blame the weather tbh, I haven't been able to breathe through my nose since the flowers bloomed and I've been quite shitty since

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I am loaded up on antihistamines but I've still be generally itchy and off. Maybe it is that. And the full moon!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That damn man in the moon messing with our auras and chakras -shakes fist at sky-

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago
