Birthday officially ruined. TheVoid pissed on Boyo's gift before dawn. He's in a depressive spiral and I'm dealing with the stench and trying to wash non waterproof things.

Woo.

What is TheVoid's estimated lifespan at this point? Attributed verbal lifespan that is, rather than physical.

ikea boxes arrived before 8, I had to put pants on. Then I went back to bed.

I suppose i better shower, put pants on again and then put together some furniture so I can make some order out of this nascent hoarder nest. Then I have my desk free so I can do desk related tasks. ๐Ÿ‘

On another positive note I found a helpful post on reddit regarding the course and grammar about duolingo latin.

23rd consecutive green bin โœ”๏ธ

Almost a record. Going at this since May ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Big trick is to fill the bin, then have the next one lined up in receptacles for the week after. Dries out and you can fit 2x in.

After this I'm done.. then... MULCH.

I have a little-ish ryobi electric one and am always so demoralised using it. Spend all day shoving shit through it and only get maybe 1/2m^3 lol.

Is satisfying though when there's a stubborn stick and it finally makes its way through

Is she still wearing a sensor? I've found a cheaper brand called CareSens, around $55. The app isn't as good as Libre but I can't imagine she needs that level of information.

Had such an awesome time with my good friend last night, great conversation, great food (thank you schlemmertopf ๐Ÿ˜‰), great everything! You are such an amazing person and I hope to be even just half the person you are one day ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

Now today is for lazy activities, such as: drinking coffee, eating bread (before I have to go to work next week and can't bring any bread lol), having another coffee, snoozing, watching YT, snoozing with the cat, and maybe (probably, most definitely) another coffee.

Later, when I feel more awake, I'll load up a game to play. Can't decide between Sacred 2, Megabonk, or Easy Delivery Co. I also still have to finish Lost Wiki: Koslovka. So many choices, such limited time lol

Don't intend to overdo it, caution is the watchword for any highly flavoured spice. I understand that it's considered safe in normal culinary amounts. Putting neat essential oil on your skin does cause severe problems.

True, but I consider anyone who puts undiluted essential oils on their skin to be the sort of person that should probably be fitted with mittens anyway

Anyone know of any canine viruses doing the rounds? My mate's working dog has been at the vet two days in a row. Fever, shaking, needing to be picked up to get in the car, bloods show inflammation and low thyroid, tummy ok except not very interested in food and no cough. Poor pup is really miserable. so everyone is just waiting for now. Really hope it turns out ok. He is the best boy.

Could it be the new bird flu? If seals can get it, maybe dogs can. Because quite a lot of diseases (such as viruses) can pass from dogs to seals quite easily so maybe the other way around.

Itโ€™s probably already been done by vet, but check carefully for any sore spots, could be as small as a grass seed embedded in skin thatโ€™s gone infected. Or a bad tooth. Hope the dog pulls through!

Of course the night I feel like I could get other things done one of the kids won't bloody go to sleep. I'm 1.5 espresso martinis in now so nothing will get done anyway.

I was reading how to get that nice foam on an espresso martini and you need to shake the shit out of it. My cocktail shaker doesn't seal properly so I'll have to get a new one of those.
