    sad Geoffrey update 🐩🦮🐕‍🦺🐶🐾🐕

    He has hemangiosarcoma. So he probably has a few months before he’s gone. I can’t stop crying, and he’s not even gone yet. He won’t eat anything, except for treats. At least he’s eating the treats. Ahhhhhhhhh

      Oh no. All the treats for Geoffrey. The Vet told me to buy my cat a rotisserie chicken when he was diagnosed with lung cancer. Eating anything at all matters more that it being ‘proper’ food

      That’s so awful, I’m so sorry LE!

      Definitely treat him to all sorts of delicious human foods! Try to put the inevitable out of your mind for now, and spend all the time you can with him!

      Sending you and Geoffrey all my love!!!

    Am on PT and am having an old (wo)man shouts at cloud moment, but whyyyy do people listen to things on their phones without headphones? I don’t wanna hear it. I’d play death metal loud as revenge but that’s not fair on all the other passengers.

    So far, we’ve had some weird male-voiced asmr vaccine thing and now there’s cutesy pop. God I’m a grump, lol

        I have never found attention seekers to get positive attention. They just piss people off too much

        this whole noise on trains and trams thing reminds me of a woman at a bar I used to go to who would snap her fingers all the time. For no reason. Bugged the shit out me and probably other people too.

      Yep it’s so annoying, happened to me the other day on the train. Loud music and because it was so loud the person playing was screaming to talk to the person they were with.

      Also people having loud phone conversations for everyone to hear.

      And smelly foods being consumed in train.

      I remember the bliss of Tokyo PT, no loud music, no loud talking, no phone convos, no food, the way it should be.

    Finally got around to rebuilding an ‘old’ mountain bike I built for an ex. I’ve been riding the unicorn bell bike and trike which both weigh a tonne and handle shockingly. I figured may as well use the heavier ones as you get more exercise in in less time and no one will pinch them.

    I forgot what it’s like to ride such a light bike. Weighs 8.5kg. Built it when the AUD was way way higher so ended up being a bargain for what it is ('bout $700, last service (!) for my other mtb years ago was $380).

    So that’s the ‘new’ goon / snack / beach transport machine. I am tempted to put the unicorn bell and basket on as theft prevention devices.

    But jeez riding it brings back memories which i think is why i left it so long. Happy it still works well and the salt air down here hasn’t fucked it too much.

              It might get mistaken for a Lime scooter and be thrown in the Yarra. Same as if it looked like a Jesus bike.

    I’ve been wanting to get a new pair of in-ear headphones for a while. I had the bright idea of using my Telstra points to buy a new set via their rewards stores.

    Every time I check, the ones I want are always a few thousand points more than what I have. Months!!! Months I’ve been checking!

    I swear they’re doing it on purpose gah!

    My husband is no tradie. Ask him about electronics and he’ll have you hooked up in no time. Ask him to put new hinges on a cupboard door and he has every tool known to man or woman spread out on the kitchen floor. It’s been 3 hours now. I know he’ll do a great job so I’m biting my tongue. Patience.

      Our plan was to go to a play centre but it was booked out, so we just went to the local shopping centre instead.

      The boys got to sit through the novelty of a grocery shop. Usually I’ll get things delivered or the MIL heads out for 3 hours by herself right before dinner time

          Nah, not a lot of medication that’s suitable. Off the booze and green too. I’m not a fan of pain killers with mechanical injury as its easier to set it backwards. Luckily I’m able to rest. It’s improving, just not there yet.
