I watched Argylle the other day. A really stupidly funny movie. Sam Rockwell is just the best.

Getting invested in linguistic discussions around the differences between a creole and a pidgin.

TitleI know how to play the recorder
And some chords on a keyboard
I know the names of the notes in order
But I'm not a singer-songwriter

I'm just a poet with a beat
The drums in my head repeat
"I'll never be famous
I'd rather be anonymous"

I know a bit about music theory
The nostalgia notes from history
The range of Celine and Whitney
Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti

I'm just a poet with a beat
The drums in my head repeat
"I'll never be famous
I'd rather be anonymous"

I won't assume I'd reach great heights
If I put in effort building a fanbase
Words sound right in the dead of night
But the sunrise knows they're a waste

Ok, I’ve finally ordered an electric throw, so this spell of freezing weather will finish in the time it takes to arrive.

Woke up, very ready for breakfast and the kitchen sink isn't draining. Guess one of the housemates clogged it last night. Woooooooooooooooooo coffee for breakfast

Recently frustrated with one of them. They're usually all good. I've tried to complain about one issue and got brushed off. Might need to be more assertive.

Today is bad and I reject it.

i know there's a crisis, it's global,
And this may be a crazy proposal:
But we don't have a garbage disposal,
So don't flush food down the sink, asshole!

I think that could be quite assertive lol

I take back everything I said about the rain because lo, the moisture hath intensified. Needed to postpone one site visit to tomorrow. Absolutely horrible commute on the way back (even with it being school holidays). I think next Wednesday is a definite WFH day again. It's such a shit route.

Today's been yuck enough that I just want to delete my brain and reset it for tomorrow. I suppose this is why people drink
