It's almost midnight and I am hungry. To eat or not to eat, that is the question.

Oopsie almost gave my neighbour a gift with four of something. Not 100% sure where she is from, but best not!

I suck at navigating those sorts of things. I thought I was somewhat culturally aware until I started hearing about the concept of unlucky numbers and realized I have zero clue how other cultures do things. Probably a good reason I should never become the prime minister, I'd end up offending someone through sheer obliviousness and getting us all blown up ๐Ÿ˜‚

AusPost said the NBN box will arrive for sure today. It's currently in Dandenong South though, so I'm not super sure about that. It took them 3 days to send it from sunshine West to Melbourne airport last week. But maybe they're on the grind with Chrissy looming

Watching the old Frankenstein movies seeing the amazing images and I recall watching these as a child.

When I was a kid screen time meant watching broadcast tv, our only choices were 3 stations, the schedule was fixed but we had a tv guide to see what was on, and it was black and white. tvs were big and heavy but had small screens.

Saturday afternoons was when I watched movies, every movie that was on.
