Melbourne

Melbcat has been seen by the specialist. As an alternative to further hospital stays she’s home now on daily subcutaneous fluids, pain and nausea relief, and antibiotics. The idea is to support her body and keep retesting her values at least every three days while trying to let the acute kidney injury recover. 🤞If she worsens she will have to go back into hospital.

I’ll also try to encourage her to drink broth, offer those pouches of soup style meal toppers, and get some electrolytes from the pet shop.

One of the black kittens let me pick them up.

Feels good lol

Couch has been chopped up and removed from the house the easiest and, coincidentally, the most satisfying way: chucked through the window! Dining table has been moved to it's new position and it's looking great in here! I even put up different curtains (my exMIL bought herself new curtains but couldn't get them up by herself, so I did that for her and scored the old ones 🙂).

I have arranged alternate leave, very slightly later. This is acceptable to me. I would have LIKED it to include my birthday, but I’ll take a few days off just afterwards

Eeeeeek I walked through a spiders web, right across my face! Mad swiping of face and hair ensued, hoping spider wasn’t present.

Has anyone heard from Melbtown and Melbcat?

TheVoid caught a mouse. Good Boy!

The worst thing about changing your diet for the better is when you decide to treat yourself like you used to and your guts decide you've been poisoned and must remove all the offending foodstuff asap. 😢

Heading home from work, my bowels are UNHAPPY

I'd like to give my gratitude to my sympathetic nervous system and the crimson tide for the opportunity to look like a sick fuck at work ✌️💜

I finished all seasons of The Boulet Brothers Dragula that I can access via Shudder (seasons 4-6, and Titans 1 and 2). Gonna rewatch Titans 2, and then investigate how to "obtain" seasons 1-3 and Resurrection lol

I NEED MY HORROR DRAG QUEENS AND KINGS

Edit: no one cares, but Asia Consent's Terrifier drag act (S6) was so fucking filthy, it's hands down my fav look EVER

yay, I bought a new controller so I can play computer games 👍🎮33

Got the day off so I'm doing something drastic: throwing out my couch! It's threadbare and disgusting and I'm sick of covering it with throws to try to make it look ok. It's time to get it out of the lounge room. I also want to move the dining table to the space it currently occupies. ExMrP wants to help.. I'd kind of like to do it myself but fine I guess. I threw out the last lounge suite we had on my own and this is smaller. I'll see how I go!

What a fucking track

My adhd ass has found the track I'll listen to on repeat for the next couple of weeks lol

Had to visit Camberwell for a meeting today, not a suburb of Melbourne I’ve ever visited. Such a contrast to my west side hood, in the types of people walking around, the much nicer houses and buildings. Their office was very flashy. Felt like the person from the ghetto seeing how the other side lives.

I put in for, like, three days of leave. I did this a month out. I want the leave in late March.

Apparently the answer is still no. How damn early do I have to do it for it to be a yes?

Either the heating in this building is totally crazy lately or I'm starting to have hot flushes. Yay peri-menopause.

Guy has only been single for five months. Will abort mission. I knew it was too good to be true.

Morning

Puzzle With A Piece Missing came on PBS this morning on the drive to work. I looked it up and Gotye's Like Drawing Blood isn't on Youtube Music as an album. The songs are there but not together. This is just one of the many problems with streaming
