    Was gonna head out tonight for some DnB action but that wouldn’t be wise w/ everything going on. Bees dick away from taking ol’ girl to emergency yesterday and seeing flu/rona current stats not risking it as it’d be the nail in the proverbial for her and that’s the last thing anyone needs.

    So limited to outside dopamine things I think for now which is no biggy.

    But, still need a rave choon

      But I’m a little worried about the cats. Are they inside the pedal? What if they get squashed?

    Today was a beaut of a day after all that incessant cloud and gloom. Really motivating me to gtfo from my unit because even when there is sun I hardly see any of it in my living room. So it was good that I was out all day today, took some lunch to a lovely low key event then went to my aunts to fuss over removing silicone residue from the bathtub for hours, super zen. It is so good to be working with my hands and helping someone else. I’m going to plan to do that as much as possible at my aunt’s in WA. Need to break the screen addtction…

        Yeah, I’ve decided I’ll keep my current rental for now and treat it like glorified storage I can live in and don’t need to pack everything to fit into. As cathartic as it would’ve been to leave Vic free from the past in some ways, I think I would’ve been putting too much stress on myself to pack everything, find storage, movers, rehome my indoor plants, then come back and crash at a friend’s place until I find another place, move again… I need to cut myself some slack.

        I’ll try other ways of motivating myself to move somewhere better for my psyche rather than falling into a rut when I get back

    I tried to make dal. The combination of yellow lentils and brown spices resulted in a very unappetising colour. Taste was good by appearance was very not. Ate a bit, but ended up making a toasted sandwich instead. Also, today the hem of my jeans came undone and then later, I noticed a black scuff on my car after coming home from supermarket. One of those days filled with irritating inconveniences. Gonna park myself on the couch and watch tv.

      The trick to making dal is to toast the spices properly. Onion, garlic, spices. Keep mixing until aromatic. Then add lentils until coated. Add liquid. Boil. Simmer until soft.

    Today has been a lovely day. Sun is shining. It isn’t freezing.

    It started out with a bit of web surfing when I woke up which is a habit I want to break out of. But then I think I renewed myself by making some rice and bean concoction, practised some music, took dog for a run (he makes me run faster), chatted to my aunt, and sat in the sun. Now I’m going to play some Stardew and then do an evening shift.

    Cheers!

        Oh that’s a pity. I’ve no expectations these days that shows will be renewed, and if they are it might be 3 years later when I’ve forgotten the story and not interested anymore. I really miss the era where shows would reliably go for 3-5 seasons and be realised every year at the same time.

          I miss that too. I hate having to watch a 10+ min recap or instead try to remember intricate plot details of shows you’ve not watched in 2+ years…

          But still, shame about Duster as it was cheesy fun. On the subreddit the running theme was that it was on people’s watch lists but they hadn’t got round to watching it yet, or we’re just starting to watch it so it had low viewer numbers. For me I watched it all in the space of about 3-4 days after it was all out and right before watching the last episode I saw the news… Fortunately though, it doesn’t end on a big cliffhanger and works as a single season show.
