I've had this away for about 6 months being repaired and got it back today.
It sounds so good, and feels really nice to play. It's interesting how what you create can be completely different based on your particular guitar.
Also here's Gibson being fluffy:
I see your fluff and raise you a fluff on a floof
a sleeping floof
Floofs bathing
Soo much floof.
My daughter's back from her camping trip. 16 adults, kids and 4 dogs attended. She's recounting her adventures.
Her: Oh and we played trivia
Me: Did you win?
Her: Yeah
Me: Did you whip their arses?
Her: Yeah. And one of the blokes was an ologist of some sort.
Me: Did you whip his arse?
Her: laughs Yeah
Me: That's my girl.
Years of paying her to be an impromptu quiz master has paid off.
Parents swung round bringing the gift of potat!
Threw some in the compost down the bellarine for a while and now there are heaps. Accidental potat!
Apparently that's about half of them.
Unsent
I close my eyes and all I see is you,
A silhouette of all my nightmares coming true.
You throw your weight around on me,
Getting off on all the ways I'm suffocating.
So I sink into the bed and out of my mind,
As my heart skips the beat and falls out of time.
Does your girlfriend know about your three am DM to me?
Five years out from the fallout of your fuck around and find out?
She approve of you blaming me for the pain you caused me?
Does she know what you've done or have you spun her a new story;
A narrative that paints you plaintive in the face of great adversity,
With me standing in as the villain in your rewritten history?
I'll tear you apart from head to heart to watch you bleed,
Get on your knees and let me hear you beg and plead,
Reenact that scene, reenact that scene for me:
The one where I was begging you to set me free.
I want to see what you saw when you carved me into your pawn,
But revenge is a dish that's best served cold and raw,
Do it again and I'll bring you pain you've never felt before,
Like when you choked me out with your father's belt on the hardwood floor.
I close my eyes and all I see is you,
Standing over me, my nightmares coming true.
You throw your weight around on me,
Getting off on all the ways I'm suffocating.
So I sink into the bed and out of my mind,
As my heart skips the beat and I fall out of time.
Goodnight everyone, from fluffy butt and I ❤️
And The Void just yeeted his bowl to smithereens
I wish I'd tried the doona in a box before I bought several cat trees lol
Things my former cat liked to sit on - clean laundry, dirty laundry, laptop bag, laptop keyboard, shopping bag on the floor, open suitcase, recently vacated-by-human spot on couch, a cardboard box
Things she didn’t like to sit on - fancy cat tree, any cushion or blanket put down for her to sit on
Gibson has a beautiful coat!
She’s got a lovely coat pattern. Like the swirl on a marble loaf cake
She's also symmetrical! I don't notice till someone here pointed it out.
The best naps are when you don't know where you are when you wake up.
I’d love it if manufacturers would stop reformulating everything.
A lot of the “new and improved” stuff is actually worse, sometimes even causing bad reactions for me. Often not only me. Whenever it happens I stop buying.
Dogsitting Milo for the afternoon. He goes to work tomorrow, so today is all about telling him he's a good boy
Had a nap from 3 to 8. But I'm still dissociating. A strange sense of doom looms over my head and has infiltrated my heart and my guts, I feel strange pangs in both.
Perhaps I'm just unwell, but when am I ever not unwell?
Also hugs. Am sending healing vibes over the ether. Is there a grounding thing you could do that might help?
So many cats! Does everyone have the predawn zoomies?
Here’s a Maggie to balance out the cats. It spent all yesterday in my backyard, just chilling
E: not that I don’t love all the cats, though 🐈
i need to go get food
🥐☕️
delicious thank you
Hurry up I'm waiting for the food truck
Can I offer you a pizza in the meantime
Bananas & fish? I believe I shall give up eating instead.
Yeah the bananas are a turnoff.
The egg ... just, No.
I'd replace the banana with potato gems and a splash of hot sauce and there's a winning dish right there.
i uhm….shall deconstruct it for the food truck thank you for providing ingredients
The exhaustion is hitting me haaaard again, slept til 11am, then had a slow breakfast, followed by going to three shops for groceries... then just sat in my car and snoozed for another hour. That's bad, I normally chill in my car on my phone but have never actually slept in it.
Still haven't done my readings either... But I made food?
Tonight it's khichuri (the lentil-and-rice origin of kedgeree without fish in it) in the rice cooker, with mung dal as the lentil, and my first attempt at vegetable korma (thickened with coconut milk and cashews blended). Wish I remembered to buy frozen peas to really add to it.
not particularly aesthetic pikturz
Not a bad dinner if I say so myself esp with some super intense lime pickle to cut through ot all. Gonna freeze some of the excess korma for a nice dinner later on.
After visiting my aunt I feel inspired to get an Instant Pot to make this dish (and many others) more quickly...
Gym done. House clean. Cat treats dispensed. Now it's chill time.
Also potentially in the reformulation hall of shame - Ensure powder. I’d been drinking it in recent years to help maintain nutrition, but then it got taken off shelves and brought back with new labels…
TW medical, vomiting
In developments that may or may not be connected, I started needing to dilute the Ensure much more to stomach it and eventually completely stopped having it because it was making me really sick, much more than my normal baseline.
My stomach still shuts down (gastroparesis but possibly something else too - tests are still pending) and I’m still in a lot of pain but since I quit drinking the Ensure I’m no longer routinely vomiting.
It was always a little gross to drink and I can’t find anything about a reformulation? Nothing is jumping out at me as different on the label.
But more recently it’s unambiguously been worsening things for me and I’m trying to remember if that started around the time of the new packaging.
I really feel like companies should be required to announce changes and disclose what they were.
Blah. Nothing worse than digging through boxes of things o my to find it sitting on the shelf instead.
