Yarrabyte’s on the sauce again.
Guess who has had an outside excursion?

Black cats are magnetic to cobwebs.
Sure are. He et a moth
I left Adelaide almost 11 years ago to come back here. No real plan.
After fucking around on the street for about 2 months, I found a place to live in a share house with an alcoholic who did more for me than my own family.
I stayed there for a year. When I first rocked up I slept on a mattress on the floor wearing all my clothes because there was a gap between my wall and the world at large so it was quite cold.

This is the place.
It’s renovated now. I haven’t been back here since I moved out. I walked in gaunt, covered in track marks and walked out with an office job and a plan to study IT.
Time flies.
You’ve done well.
Family is not always blood.
So grateful that this place allowed your healing and planted the seeds for growth. You should be proud.
so many hugs
and lots of respect 🥹
$1.4 mil.
Easily lol
💪🏼
Horse riding tenth birthday party tomorrow. Gotta say I’m pretty happy with the cake.
spoiler

That looks so good! 🐎
🤩🤩
that looks great 😀
That’s an awesome cake. I hope everything goes well
Convincing enough to set of my phobia eep! 😝
Shopping done, banh mi acquired. Time to pour out a cold one and chill for the balance of the day.
By the way, I was recently gifted a dressmaker’s dummy - but its in medium/large size, and I’m only a small/medium. It’s a Singer 151 if you’re interested. Does anyone care to swap for a Singer 150 or equivalent? Full working order. If no-one wants it, I’ll probably dress it up provocatively and put it where it can be seen through the front windows. Heh heh.
One of the reasons I love the market is that I can, if I don’t buy the extra nice things as well, feed myself for a week for about $30
Forget to change the daily emoji

I got a lift today so was able to get a tube of flea and worm drops, also got to Bunnings and bought some shadecloth and pinch clamps. I’ll have to wait until someone is with me though to put it up.
If this helps anyone - I mentioned that I needed to buy for a stray so was unsure of the exact weight, and was told that every shop (not sure if it’s in general or only Petstock) has recently expired flea and worm treatments that they’ll give for free.
spoiler
I was too embarrassed to take freebies and needed something with a specific wide weight range so I straight up bought the single Advocate for $30 (oof). But if you’re ever in a tight spot where you might not be able to afford treatment you can ask for the stuff that’s just expired.
Unfortunately they didn’t have the generic one in stock. But yeah. The Aristopet for cats over 4kg is $20 for a 3 pack (3 months worth) so I’ll add it to the next delivery. And I double checked that it was safe to use. The Purina brand ($19 x 1) however wasn’t recommended. And of course I would never risk supermarket brand flea medicine.
Edit: I’m silly… I’m using a new spot on for Melbcat now that’s too strong for this cat’s weight, but had a single tube of the old one left that is fine. If I’d remembered in time I could have just used that.
I have lost my glasses… this is not ideal
Edit: found them under the bed (despite being a bit handicapped by not having glasses to see). Now to start the day
So anyway, back to the story.
I enjoyed climbing as a youth, as most of us do. I was alone at a park and decided to climb to the top bar of a swing set, make my way to the chains holding the swing seat, and shimmy back down the chain. Brilliant.
Except, the black plastic seats are held to the chain with a type of “s” shaped hook.
When I slid down the chain, that hook embedded itself into my nether region and I ended up sort of hanging there; impaled…
Oh shit. Adrenaline kicked in and I had to climb back up the chain to un-hook myself.
I knew something was seriously wrong but I was alone and proceeded to walk home while holding my bike. There was no way I was going to sit on a bike seat and ride.
Mum freaked out (and rightly so) and drove me to hospital where I received several stitches. No permanent damage, but the story continues to make people sick in the stomach many years later 😀
Enjoy your weekend!
I don’t even have man-bits but I felt something retract in empathy and fear 😂 just give yourself a free Prince Albert at the local park
It’s funny you mention that because I got really into piercings in the 90’s. and had jewelry EVERYWHERE on my body.
I think I subconsciously deal with some trauma by jumping headlong into my fears in an extreme manner.
I feel five meters onto concrete when my GF at the time screwed up the belaying process. Woke up in an MRI.
Went to the gym to reset myself after yesterday’s failure of a workout. Spent more time in the massage chair than anything, but hey, I went and it was still better than yesterdays!
Sky was very pretty this evening. It was very pretty this morning too. I really like having this open view of the sky where I am at the moment, I wish I could afford something with this sort of view permanently.
