    So I think the friend outing I planned went well. There’s existing cracks there but when we’re all together having a good time, it’s really good. I had fun.

      With Friday and Monday touching grass full day I in fact need to be alone today to sort out my affairs.

      I’m feeling a bit bummed spending all 4 days alone, however I sorta don’t mind given the lack of alone time I will have during my 11 day trip and the two days prior.

      Coffee and food being prepared now.

    New plan hatched (heh) in terms of buying gifts for people back in the Soup. Because they get nearly everything there (albeit marked up) it can be hard to figure out what to bring back… and I have the perfect idea.

    Discounted fancy Easter choccies! I shall head to Leo’s on Tuesday or Wednesday after work and see if there’s some premium local brands on sale, the kind you won’t get overseas. Monsieur Truffe on discount would be nice.

    So. I’ve been doing some trials with my adhd medication over the last 3 days.

    It appears (testing tomorrow) that I have been taking almost double what I should have been taking.

    I’ll know tomorrow.

    It would explain the anxiety about nothing, the insane tenseness in my whole body, my random bouts of nervousness for no reason, amongst other things.

    Guess we’ll see.

    No eggs for me this year :(

    But every easter I remember my old doggo Hecate, a black lab. The first easter after we got her, P’s hid the eggs the night before in the garden, and us kids would woke up to find a whole lot of doggos poo on the lawn with foil in it. She was always gonna find them. She didn’t get sick surprisingly.

    Miss that dog.

      My dog once stole half a block of chocolate off the coffee table. I left the room for 2 minutes and when I returned he was acting really shifty in his bed so I checked it and found it buried in his blankets with 2 squares nibbled out of it.

      I had a childhood cat demolish an Easter choc basket. Also miraculously seemingly unharmed. Bloody rascals.

    Little orange girl I’m pretty sure. She’s a lot smaller than the other orange kitten.

    Happy Easter :)

    I just opened my postal vote envelope and there are way too many options there to deal with at this time of morning. Trying to decide which of the right wing nutter parties to put last will be a challenge. Probably the arse-trumpet party, due to the absolute disgust I feel every time I see one of those awful ads.

      I just saw another one of their ads today. It was just all talking and went on forever, I actually muted the sound because it was going on forever so long, can’t stand them.

    I am in trouble. Bill has had fresh meat 3 days in a row. He was disgusted to get it again and is demanding that delicious dinner with gravy that comes in pouches. He even shows me where the pouches are,

          It’s quite remarkable what gets brought home as ‘souvenirs’. Guns etc. are fairly common, as are coins and badges etc. But … there was a case about 15 years ago in country Victoria where a man was going through their ex-WW1 great-grandfather’s papers and found the severed head of a german soldier in a box. This was successfully repatriated to the deceased’s family, but WTF!

    Really hoping that rain promised today eventuates. It’s been so dry recently!

    Last two days saw me sink into disgusting goblin mode just eating and scrolling and watching tv without really enjoying any of it. Today I shall vanquish all the chores, wash my greasy hair, and start packing.
