Iβm on the couch under a throw rug.
I'm alternating between the oodie and a hoodie.
My Bermuda triangle of sweat (nose and upper lip) is very sweaty however lol
it's sooo humid
Complaining
I may have treated this ringworm inadequately and spread it to the sheets and my ankle. It could be irritation from the perfumed antifungal laundry rinse but with my immune system Iβm not taking any chances. Treatment will recommence and endless hot wash and dry laundry continues.
I may have to wash the last two blankets that might still smell of Melbcat and stink them up with scent.
I donβt seem to be progressing at anything, the house doesnβt look any cleaner, my wrist hurts from slamming my hand into the wall, I spend every moment of every day feeling hollow and like I want to cry.
before you do all that I think you should see a doctor about it, don't take the chance
because it does not help to work so hard and have such anxiety when you can't possibly be sure
and keep a pen and paper journal everyday but like a Japanese journal, write some positive observations, write about other people and things
and so many hugs π«
I will but will probably just get it again unless I can sort the visiting cat. Which is not simple. But unfortunately I canβt bear to ignore π«©
This time of my life is just really bad. I just want to go back to how it was. Me and my girl.
Internal job application successfully submitted. Applications close Thursday so I'm hoping I'll hear by next week π€
You go girl π₯
GET ITTTTTTT!!
Good luck π€
Fingers crossed mate π€πΎ

YASSSSS GET THAT WORK LIFE BALANCE
Worst movie ever watched?
For me: Rubber (2010), dir. Quentin Dupieux.
The premise: a rubber car tyre developed awareness and psychokinetic powers to kill people
The actual experience: Pretentious absurdist French shite.
Maybe some people like it, but I certainly did not. And yes, I will take any opportunity to shit on this film. I wasted 82 minutes of my life, twice, on this poop film
Two that I can think of. Moulin Rouge. Didn't get passed the first half hour. Don't know what it's about still to this day. And Mamma Mia. I did watch it all and then slapped myself.
I liked Moulin Rouge but I watched it as a teen and had a massive crush on both Ewan, Nicole, and the guy that sings Roxanne π
Hard agree on Mamma Mia, and I love ABBA π
Agree with you on Mama Mia. I think it was popular because of the abba songs, but take that away itβs a nothing much special.
I think they're gonna make a third and I don't know why they made a second one.
Movie I have sat all the way through. Most bad movies I will stop watching.
Survive!
I saw this at the movies with my frenemy
it was so bad I laughed, she was really upset I laughed
true, the story was serious, but a serious story is different to a well made movie, which this was not
Never heard of it but I clicked the link to see what made it serious. How bad must it have been if it ended up a comedy π
TIL about the Tarantino connection/reference. Awesome thank you.
I loved that movie lol.
I always read it as satire of a particular genre of film.
I'm starting to think that perhaps the issue is me πππ
Objectively it has to be The Room, but what makes it so bad also makes it great.
Oh my lord do I love watching The Room, it's just so perfectly quotable!
"Anyway, how's your sex life?" π And that awkward scene where he fucks her dress? Or the sheets? So delightfully unhinged.
I actually read the book Greg wrote about how he met Tommy and how the movie got made, production etc, also delightfully unhinged. And the Disaster Artist movie was great too.
Can you tell I love The Room? π
Autumn in New York - Richard Gere and Winona Ryder
Shlockfest about a younger woman falling in love with an older man, and then she gets sick (or is sick) and dies near the end of the movie.
Ended a relationship over that piece of shit.
I haven't seen that tbh, but the premise reminds me a little of City of Angels, with Meg Ryan and Nicholas Cage. That film makes me very, very angry
You're not missing out at all. It's crap. My gf at the time got upset at me cause I didn't the movie emotionally compelling (i might have clapped when Winona's character died) and we shouldn't see each other.
I saw that movie.
it was very very cringe
very nithing, I just didn't care about a single character or event
The trash taking itself out, especially over a shitty movie lol
I liked how dumb it was. Like at the start the guy lists a bunch of movies and includes JFK, then says 'no one knows why those stories happened, they just did.'
Omg you've seen it? I don't think I've met another person who saw it too π TBF that was pretty funny, I'll give it that lol
I have a Mubi subscription and have watched a bunch of weird stuff. I may have been more used to pretentious French expressionist cinema at the time too
Ah fair I saw it a thousand years ago on I want to say netflix maybe? I'm not sure I've tried to forget π
Ooh some fisticuffs b/w tradies next door.
That's exciting.
I going for the one in hi viz (nothing against tradies, just the yelling). They're all very quiet now lol.
Did they take their shirts off? π
π€£π€£π€£
Stupid society. I feel like such a creep going next door and picking up the carton that got misdelivered. It's MINE, I promise!!!

Itβs unfair that itβs effortless to make mess and takes 10 times as long to clean it up. Plus needs extra motivation.
