    Strange how even some really shitty times were better than this because Melbcat was still with me.

    Looking through photos and videos of her. She was so loving, so funny, and such a beautiful cat. I wish I had more videos. Especially of the mundane things I saw every day. Of her walking back in from the other room, and of her coming to the side of my bed waiting for me to lift the doona and let her climb in. It was the routine and how I remember her.

    Now I’m seeing tiny odd little symptoms I recorded adding up.

    I just want her back.

    Doom Eternal is on GOG now, so I can see where I went wrong when I bought it. I could buy it off there pretty cheap but I think I won’t out of principle now. Microsoft should have made it more straightforward to buy, and they’re on the BDS list anyway.

    I haven’t bothered pirating games in a while, this has kickstarted an old love of mine. I think I’ll do it for more singleplayer games I can’t see myself playing more than once

    I’ve spent much of my afternoon cleaning silver. Two cutlery sets, silver coasters, silver place mats, a sugar bowl and a beautiful silver-inlaid glass vase.

    The forks are so clean, my hands so dirty.

    Considering I’m wearing a WHITE SHIRT, I don’t look too disreputable

          For donated items, I think I’d use the tinfoil & baking soda method. Then a quick rub with a microfibre cloth. Takes a lot of the elbow grease out of it.

    Lentish for me went really well. I ate a custard tart and a medium packet of peanut m&m’s because of special occasions and that’s it.

    On Friday I ate a hot cross bun. I’m gonna try and go as long as I can and when I indulge no big deal.

          Cut in half. Butter on both sides.

          Strawberry Jam on one half, peanut butter on the other.
