spoilerLooking at Melbcat photos. She’s so beautiful. So many tail hugs and real hugs. A lot of cheeky moments. I wish I could hold her again.

Ok. You're not normally into their music but you like one of their songs.

I went out forgetting my mask and am getting sick… also intolerant to or can’t digest everything you’re supposed to eat when you’re sick. FML

I'm up to two packages currently waiting at my door for me to come home. I think it's my new electric blanket and a soy milk maker, but I'm also expecting a Temu package including new watch bands/covers and random stuff.

I had previously bought an electric banket on a pre-order with Appliances Online, but their delivery has apparently been delayed so I got a refund. I ended up buying a cheaper blanket instead to give me enough money left over for the soy milk maker. It's not a brand I've ever seen before, so fingers crossed it's ok.

I am watching The King and I , last time I saw this was decades ago

omg,

this is a battle of the sexes story, which is always fun

but the representations of culture are quite ... embarrassing

all I can think of is that's not how royalty works and the accents and dances etc are 😬

that she was a brave Victorian woman, of whom there were many

and the king and court were very wise in anticipating and handling Western imperialism and influence

4 hobbits, also I love how in the 40s and 50s so many movies were set in other countries and cultures, now we seem stuck in the West

beach

today at the beach I found a little wooden chest, it had lost it's lid and was empty, a good plastic sand spade

and birds, lots of birds, and a nice sunset
