I don’t understand why people still approach you when wearing headphones…
Why?
To warn you you are about to walk in the path of a tram. ( I have even had to grab people )
I get that, but mine is never drastic.
Is always to ask me a question. All these people around without headphones… and I still get asked!
Beautiful Melbourne day out there. 🙂
Day 15 chilli ferment pH test
Thing is not going to kill me this is a good colour. Using a soil pH test kit (of all things) immediately headed towards acidic. That was a good ferment.
Going to blend it up tm with some vinegar to punch it down a bit more
That is so clever!! That way you know it’s safe and actually fermenting properly.
Fermenting, like, turning into alcohol? I don’t know how I feel about that, but chilli alcohol sounds kinda vile. Then again, I watched a series where a dude turned mountain dew into wine, and another where he turned peeper marshmallows into a mead and it looked kind of interesting.
more like sauerkraut or kim chi.
Ah, right
Sauerkraut is fermentation. Cheese is fermentation. Pickles are fermentation. Sourdough is fermentation. Not all fermentation is alcohol.
Ok.
Relationship officially over.
He didn’t even want to talk it out. Just said we are done over text and blocked me everywhere.
This is going to be a time of growth for me. Only up from here!
You deserve wayyyyyy better than that guy was giving you!
Skimming through your comment history…and yikes.
You’ll be better off in the long run.
Ooh rough.
Over text is a bit fucked tbh you might have dodged a bullet there
this was from the dude with the disgusting valentines card yeah? First up, I’m sorry. Second of all, and again sorry if this sounds rough, but I am CERTAIN you’re gonna look back on this relationship and be glad its over. Probably not today or tomorrow, but that day is coming. Take a deep breath in and out, cause you’re free of that asshole.
I’m so sorry.
lots of hugs
I’m also sorry to hear but probably for the better that you’re not with him.
You deserve someone way better than that.
I’m sorry. That sounds devastating.
He was no prize though. He was noncommittal, self centred, low effort, and consistently treated you like an option. I agree with the advice to block him everywhere in case he comes back sniffing around again. It will also stop you lurking his page and picking at wounds.
I hope these offer some comfort
I’m sorry for the pain he has caused you, but the trash took itself out. Block them back, just in case they get drunk and weird, and leave them in the past.
You got this!
Ah man. I remember how giddy and excited you were when first meeting the guy. But it sounds like it’s all for the best now (what a dropkick breaking up with you via text). And you’re very much ready to move on yourself.
You’re better off without the guy, and I think this experience will be a great one to take note of what worked + what didn’t. Pay attention to what you felt you needed from him (that kept you in the relationship) and try to find other sources for that, or interrogate the quality of what you were getting, so as to avoid going back to him in a moment of loneliness and/or inebriation ;)
You got this!!! 💪
@LowExperience2368 @Seagoon_ Lots of hugs.
I’ve been there before.
Breakups are the worst — even if he’s a complete and utter jerk (and from the sounds of it, he definitely is).
Know that it’s natural to cry, it’s natural to mourn.
And if you have a sleepless night, no-one will begrudge you if you take a day off work or cancel your plans for tomorrow.
There’s no rush. Give yourself time to grieve.
It might take time, but know things will get better.
the moon is so beautiful this morning 🌙
Just gave myself a nasty cut on my thumb opening a can… How do you know if you need stitches 🤔 quite a lot of blood
Rule of uh, thumb: if you ain’t sure, get a professional opinion
I don’t think they like stitching finger print parts. Get some of those butterfly clip bandaids?? Also, fucking ouch!
Still oozing a bit but doesn’t seem too deep. Think I’ll just see how it goes
spoiler
looks like the cut took a chunk of meat out too
No wonder breakfast tastes so good
saved a sample for lab grown meat too, force steak should be ready tomorrow
Fucking hell boost still doesn’t support spoilers and I was not prepared for this
Is it still going? If it is, I’d call the nurse on call. They’ll ask some questions and advise if you should go in to hospital. Imo (not a doctor), that doesn’t really look stitchable, your primary concern is probably infection, so antiseptic and gauze is probably what you need
Edit: I read 42 as 12. If it’s still going now after over an hour, you should definitely call NoC
put a bandaid on 15 min pressure and elevation if it is still bleeding get a professional for amputation

Expired eggs and small children. Right., firing up the spit roast.
Trying to decide if I’m having a sickie today. Please provide me a meal that will assist in this decision

Temperamental car is in for a service (a waaaay overdue service, so I don’t really blame her for being temperamental!) and I’m at my desk just wishing I could have worked from home today. Was awake at stupid hours having imaginary arguments with work people.
Issa gorgeous morning though!

Oh man, you’ve unlocked a memory of sitting at a mechanic as a twenty something waiting for the report to come in as to whats gone wrong with my piece of shit this time! I do NOT miss those days.
I have a terrible feeling I know what’s wrong with her and if so, it’s time for her to go. I might just be preparing myself for the worst, IDK. An excellently fun car, but just… too much.
I gave up on mine after multiple rounds of the Takata airbag shitshow. Not worth the headaches in lockdown
Countdown to the next public holiday…. And to winter solstice.
Off the top of my head I think it might be the 10th of June for the next public holiday.
It is at this time, that I wish I could rip my nose off and burn it. So swollen is the tissue up there, not snot, just enflamed. Sat within my hoodie with a bowl of hot water to decongest or whatever, which provided temporary relief.
I can’t breath through it, but I am loathe to breath through my mouth as it gets so dry. Everything fucking hurts.
Le Whinge
doesn’t sudafed reduce the swelling?
hugs and a hot honey lemon drink 🍯🍋🍵
@Seagoon_ I’ve got a flight coming up soon.
It’s not this week, it’s not next week, but it is the week after.
Too early to start packing?
I might buy a few things likes gifts for people early but packing, normally 30 minutes before the taxi arrives. 🤭
Got home late today and just cannot be buggered moving all my plants around in the cold and dark. I know my landlord lives ages away so I’ll just do it tomorrow. I’ll definitely be leaving work at 4pm tomoz. Gotta head in early, so I’m leaving on time…
This week’s off to a much better start, less overwhelming, more under control. Much more even-keeled having regular hot non caffienated drinks through the day. Meantime I’m so immensely grateful I made all that food last week. Ripper lunch today and tomorrow, and more goodness for dinner. Gonna do a bittergourd and tvp stir fry tomorrow night I reckon.
Think I’ll have a go at trying to sleep without the phone tonight. I have a library book on ADHD I’ve been wanting to go through…
Kiddo had a great weekend. We caught up with the folks from Mrs’s mums group and it was great to see all his little mates. They are all within similar age as each other, but they were all so different. A few were walking, a few had a couple more words, a few were a lot bigger. Tinyest has probably 50% of his teeth and a full head of hair so he probably looked the most “non baby” of the bunch. He’s currently trying to say “Dog” but has only gotten as far as “Duh” which is so damn cute.
I see that with my twins. It’s almost more comforting having two kids because you can see how differently two kids in the exact same environment develop.
