YL dyed my hair. I think it's gone nonna orange. I don't wanna look under the towel yet. Gonna need more than a couple of beers tonight.

Some purple toner or shampoo might help? Also if it was bleached it might need another go to get the stubborn red tones
back from beach. I am wrecked. It was a long walk and over some difficult rocks to get to the shelly beach but it was AWESOME
it's so very very beautiful there
I am going to crash now and will post some pics for you all later π
I waited two weeks for this lamp I ordered from Bunnings. Then they tell me it's not made anymore and refunded me. Now I need to find a new lamp. I wanted that lamp
Things Misha has yelled at me about today
-
I opened the curtain and disrupted her warm nest of sun and insulation. Ok that one's fair
-
There was a big stinky turd in the litter box. It was hers. She'd just laid it. And while I was cleaning up that litter box she went and dropped another one in the OTHER litterbox because we have more than one cat so of course we have more than one freakin' litterbox.
-
There was a turd in the other litterbox
-
While she was yelling at me about the turd situation Cerys climbed up on the sun-drenched dining room table. The entire table is in front of a north facing window and is sun drenched. It is six feet long. They are two foot cats.
-
I attempted to use logic at her re the whole dining room table usurpation.
-
Cerys continues to exist. A cat she has co-habited with since 2012. A cat who literally came out of her. A cat who only exists because she decided to get railed on the hood of our old datsun. This is my fault.
-
I slid her across the polished floorboards like a fat beige hockey puck. I regret nothing.
I feel like Misha is perhaps the cat equivalent of a cranky chain-smoking nonna who is pissed off at the world (life is too hard and nobody understands), and at her son for still living off Centrelink (back in the 90s).
Misha sounds like such a fun character to live with π
Absolute demon shitbag.
Sounds like her and Alfie are kindred spirits!
4 hours.
I've hit the wall. This week has been brutal and I just need to go to bed till tomorrow.
Urgh. I was really sick last night. Stupid stomach.
Melbcat seems a tiny bit uncomfortable again. Right as I was calling the vet to say she was feeling a bit better, but asking about the ibd flare possibility and dealing with it if this continues/comes back. Theyβre so sick of me calling them though. I agreed to monitor and gave her something to help.
Edit: Ok she started crying again. Vet time!
Ps. I post a lot about Melbcat being sick, but overwhelmingly sheβs happy and in good condition. Her chronic stuff is being managed, she just has a lot of annoying acute issues and I do fuss.
I've had a very unproductive day so far at work.
Too much socialising, making coffee.
We all know serving sizes are a lie. Here's another one. You're browsing the hair dye aisle because you have more grey than actual colour these days and it takes you awhile before you finally make a hopefully rightful choice. End result is NEVER what is indicated on the box.
What are some other lies we are told?
How big the chip packet is compared to how many chips there actually are.
The size of Ice creams are laughable too now.
I switched to cheese cake and haven't looked back
The Twelve Apostles along the great ocean road is an egregious lie. I demand a refund.
Give us your bank details. I'll refund you.
The look on people's faces (in commercials) when they get into a new car.
Sure it's cool, but not euphoric.
Thatβs the same as βpeople eating saladβ face in ads
OMG yes!!!!
It's fucking lettuce Janet. Calm your tits love.
There is so much chewing involved in salad eating.
I've gotten into new cars and my first reaction is puzzlement. What the fuck are all these buttons for.
How good a maccas burger looks on tv and how big it is but in reality they're super small.
Also the perfect basket of french fries.
Nope, didn't get that either.
Any fries are perfect fries (okay except the soggy kind)
I said the same thing to Spinny!
My burgers come out huge yet the burger places burgers look like someone has run over them.
The menu picture vs what actually comes out!
Yes. Those ads with the latest burger some cunt's tryna flog looks like a mountain with lashings of bacon. When you get it, there's 2 scrawny bits and looks like it's been slam dunked into the bag.
