    I had a dream last night that I went to the Melbourne crew party and it was lovely. @gibsonhasafluffybutt was ssuuuuper tall and @studspud was cool as, and then we all went diving/snorkeling.

    Was a nice change from my normal nightmares! Thanks.

        It’s just 56 squats a day for the 56 women diagnosed with breast cancer daily. Meant to be a fund-raiser, hence the doing it informally. I’ve been slack with my squats lately so thought it would be a good way to get back into it. Did it with 20kgs bar today and, well, you’ve seen the ows.

      Ok so you inspired me to have another look at squats. One of my least favourite exercises because my knees hate me (“lift with your knees” they said, “save your back” they said). I thought, there’s got to be a way to do it without trashing your knees. That led me to a short video which really helped. I did all the things that Dr said and now I can (carefully) do squats! So I did 56 very slow and careful squats, and I’m very excited to join you on your squat challenge!

        I love this!!! Also, thanks for the video, that’s super helpful for Boyo. Hope your legs don’t ache too much today! I do them in blocks of 10 or 20 if I’m too tired or sore.

    Birthday dinner was underwhelming. Great place, food was quality…but left kind of hungry.

    I picked the joint so can’t be too mad.

    Still had a blast with the family.

      The hollow leg curse. Years ago a friend offered me all I could eat taco bill for my birthday for me n a mate. I’m 6’2" he’s 6’5". She cut us off after two entrees and two mains. We went elsewhere afterwards for a bit more food. Next week she came into my bar where she got free beer and I cut her off after two. Payback.

    One glass of low-ish alcohol lemon spritz and was inspired to play with some make-up I don’t often use, so will be spending the rest of the evening in purple eye-liner, purple and blue highlighter and a dark lippy.

          once I finish doing one colour a time of my blue green palette shadows I’m going to use a neutral dove grey shadow and try a different liner a day

            Turns out I have an amazing lipstick I’ve barely touched because I never gave the proper chance. It is such a great colour for me. Good luck kn your quest - I wanted to join the eyeshadow one but I have so (too) many that within a few days I wanted to pick ones that fit fit my vibe / mood that I was still ignoring the lesser chosen ones. But, also, sometimes I just know that bright orange will fuck up my vibe.

    The fruit & veg box has been delivered. There are some wildly disparate potato sizes this time, and some annoyingly long carrots that don’t quite fit in my carrot container.

    The grapes are delicious and it was a struggle to not just eat them all for breakfast.

    Thinking I’ll do drag of Poison Ivy, inspired by Uma Thurmans portrayal.

    It’s already glamourous but I reckon I can glam it up even more. Gonna thrift and alter some clothes from Savers, and add the fake vines and roses I bought from the dollar store.

    I dunno if I want to do the body suit though, maybe short-shorts onesie leotard thing, maybe a skirt, definitely knee high boots.

    Gonna be this year’s project, maybe I wear it to PAX or Supernova lol
