Boyo and I nearly had our first fight because I was keen as hell to make a pasta bake which he was gungho about until I let him know it had mushrooms in it. I still made the dish, he had toasties for dinner. The pasta bake ruled, his loss, not gonna hold it against him no matter how much he protests “I swear I just wasn’t hungry!” (somehow you decided that 4 hours before dinner, 10 minutes after I let you know about the mushrooms. I don’t care, dude, I still had what I wanted)
He shoulda pulled the fucking mushrooms out and left them for his partner like a normal person.
miss seagoon has some food can’t eats and won’t eats
I don’t cook the can’t eats and always discuss ingredients
I want eating to be a happy thing
If I like something other people can’t or won’t have I make that for a lunch for myself . No drama and I don’t miss out.
Boyo hates salmon but occasionally I’m like SALMON IS LIFE and we make it work. This is a communication issue with a 30 second delay.
I can’t eat oily fish and can barely eat white fish, I cook a lot of fish because Mr Seagoon absolutely loves fish. It’s such an easy thing to do.
anyway, with pasta bakes if there are different likes just use small gratin bowls and make different ones, leaving out mushies or what ever in some of them. It takes nearly no effort.
Mushrooms are tricky. For me the flavour is fine but the texture vile. Sometimes eating around them works, others it doesn’t.
You warned, he declined. Don’t weaponise them.
Worse comes to worst, I have another 4 servings of a meal I found delicious and he made himself his dinner so I don’t mind!
🤷♀️
he couldn’t pick the mushies out?
Nope. And I get it, which is why I prewarned him because if he’d seen/smelt them… IDK, I guess I wish he’d just tried the dish. But I also understand why he didn’t and am glad I still had it because it was so delicious. Thank you again, Nagi!
I got the anxieties about starting work next week. I’m trying to reframe it as “excitement”, focus on the paycheck, work my wage, it will be gooooooood. I’m fine!
Try and refame it. Its not anxiety, its your body’s ignition sequence for something you’ve never done before or haven’t for a while.
That is w good way to reframe it! It’s just creating adrenaline in preparation!
yup, think of the rewards 😸
Not struggling to pay almost 2k in rent, a driver’s licence, I can buy name brand coffee again! The future is limitless
Prepare to be mega exhausted for a few weeks while you adjust. It will get better ☺️
Oh yeah for sure, I’m just gonna take it easy during the adjustment period!
Melbcat is good to go next week! I’m really hoping that everything goes well 🤞☘️
Send so many good vibes for you both and gentle head kisses for Melbcat!
🤞 🤞 sending good healing vibes. go Melbcat
so many hugs and kisses, it will go well 😸
Went for a walk. Perfect walking temperature and a nice breeze.
I’m loving these cool breezes
Ouch! LittleOne was lying on my chest when the auto feeder triggered. Springbok feet to the throat. Thanks shithead
Oof! Mickey loves to sleep on my chest and then suddenly launch off my boobs at mach 5. It’s a unique sort of love but I take what I can get from the apex predator with a Napoleon complex 😂
claw in the belly button in lift off is a special touch
WhiteBoy used to wake me with a delicate claw to the nostril.
Ooh i got a top one: Cerys once literally ripped my left nipple in half from a chest launch.
Bonus points: she was a teenager / still semi kitten with the kitten razor feet
Fucking ouch! I’ve a hand scar from same cat superman launching himself at me in search of hugs. Adorable rotters.
Geez. The great ocean road hogged all the rain and we got none. I don’t think the outcome is good for either party.
the deforestation hasn’t helped none either
That’s been a wild turn of events today!
Running to the library to print things, and I’m remembering why I don’t run
Fuggit. I am not cooking tonight. Fish n chips here I come.
The Ugreen charger has arrived. It has been named Bernie after the robot from Wall-e due to its mild resemblance and we need to explain to the kids it doesn’t made sounds or actually do anything.
It’s also smaller than I expected but it makes sense, it is a charger after all
Urgh, car wants my money. Rear main seal and brake master cylinder. Probably do the clutch while the gearbox is off too. It’s like half the value of the car.
I know I said this recently but… Man, Arrested Development (talking about the group here, but the show is good too) is still so good. Same vibes, grooves, 90s feel - new albums sound fresh though somehow… Also reminded me of that 8tracks mixtape app. So I went to reinstall, and it’s gone…it was so good…
Looked it up, and…Citing difficulties with funding and maintaining royalty payments, 8tracks ceased its services on 31 December 2019.[5] However, on 19 April 2020, 8tracks was relaunched under the new ownership and operation of BackBeat Inc. As of December 2024, the service is inactive.
I’m disappointed.
Edit - groove just hit peak level…
2 minutes into this track. The fade out is just sublime. Have a listen https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=fqTDh1kvOi4
Except that Mister S story line. What the complete and utter fuck were they thinking
So so good

I talked so much at work today I have a sore throat. Accidentally lay down on the bed when I got home and now I am stuck…must…make…dinner…
Lawyer consulted. I do believe a DIY solution will be taken. Fee schedule is absurd.
If you are well organised and patient many legal tasks can be DIY.
Agreed. The basic issue is enforceable. Since this is a hopefully never need, I think we’ve got a solution.
the egg nishner guy is here
hope it all gets fixed in time for the next heatwave or even cold snap
What is your ideal weather pattern?
Mine is a nice sunny 23°c day with a weekly 30°c day to dry the sheets quickly, all year round. The occasional balmy night for drinks outside. Strictly no pollen or harmful UV rays.
10 degC overnight. Daytime 20 degC up to 25 degC. Fine during the day, any rain coming at night. Occasional hot day to 30 degC for laundry purposes. Wind - not bothered except that hot northerly winds should be VERBOTEN!
Pretty much my ideal set up. I do want some rainy weekends with a max of 15, peppered in there. Cozy days for chilling on the couch.
Sunny days above 20 degrees, not too close to 30 degrees, and not too much wind. Overnight low between 10 to 15 degrees for comfortable sleeping. This year round with occasionally balmier / beach days (around 30 degrees), and occasional rainy days for moodier times and for the gardens.
I like just mild weather, even slightly cool. Sun is nice but I can’t handle too much
21 and sunny, slight breeze. Night 10-12 degrees
I like random and weather that can be challenging at times. Reminds me I am human, reminds me of the power of nature.
Sunny days between 20°C and 25°C, with rain/storms from 11:45PM to 3.30AM. an occasional warm day of 30°C, preferrably on a Friday or Saturday as it’s nice going out when it’s warm and there’s no work the next day lol.
Edit: Storm/rain does not occur when there is a cool celestial event happening lol
