    “Man’s Attempt to go to bed early foiled by cat chasing random bug in bedroom. When asked why he didn’t remove the cat he was quoted as saying: she’ll just bang on the door all night” More news at 11.

      Cat chasing bug is excellent. My cats won’t, they just lazily look at bugs while I tell them to do their job of protecting the house from said bugs.

    Don’t know if anyone was watching the news but a cargo ship in Baltimore collided with a bridge and took the whole thing down.

    It sounds horrific.

    I started feeling worse after a nap yesterday afternoon. It was one of those naps where upon waking I could swear I’d been punched in the face and been run over by one of those wannabe F1 drivers they always seem to hire for replacement buses

    I ran out of soothers, not that they were doing very much anyways. But I did find an orange in my fridge, so I had that. Also remembered I have no sugar cordial I keep on hand for when I’m sick (when I have a cold, I always really struggle with water intake despite usually drinking lots)

    Also I bought a game called chef in the steam sale and hopped on at 10 thinking I would play an hour then go to bed, but it’s now 2 and it appears I may still be awake

        All are good. Even better when you blend them together in a hot choco, but the sugar content tends to be quite horrific.

    Finally the apartment has cooled down to a more reasonable 24°C. So the cats have started their zoomies.

    They have been lethargic and not doing zoomies in the last 3 weeks as the apartment was constantly 31-35°C.

      Did they end up with extra-zoomies from cumulatively bottling up energy for the past 3 weeks?

      When you are the moon, the best form you can be is a full moon. And then the half moon… he’s all right. But the full moon is the famous moon. And then three-quarters, eh, no one gives a shit about him. When does he come, two days in, to the calendar month? He’s useless. Full moon. The moon. The main moon.

        When you are the moon, there is a person people say is the sun. I saw the sun once, and he came past me, really fast. And it was an, it was called, the, an eclipse. And he came fast! But as he came past, I, I licked his back. [sticks out tongue] And he doesn’t know I licked his back! All in his yellow suit!.. I’m the moon.

          One time, I saw a man looking at me, yes, with his eyes. And then, he, he picked up a tube. And he looked, in the tube, and he made the moon big, inside the tube. The moon big inside a tube!

    I just dropped my cat at the cattery for the very first time. I feel like an absolute monster, abandoning my little baby. I know it’s for his own good- I’m going away for 10 days and last time I was away that long he struggled with a friend visiting daily.

    But still. And the house feels very empty.

        He’s a sociable boy, and I know he’ll be just fine, but it’s still hard to walk away and leave him there! He’s probably having a lovely time already.

      I had a floor length full circle skirted dress taken up once and just that cost almost as much as the dress. Proper alterations so a dress (or any other sort of clothing) fits properly are well worth it.

          Except this dress did not have a waist seam. There were lace overlays and an asymetrical seam around the skirt involved, so in this instance even though it was a very long hem it was still the only real option. 💃

        I had an idea to have a pre-thought-up tirade ready which uses subbed words like darned, fudging, etc. for a laugh.

        But I also have another idea locked and loaded which might be fun too.

    Found myself being more conscious of what I was listening to in the car now that I have a dashcam. That’s probably normal for the first few days of ever having a dashcam I expect.

    At the same time, if I end up submitting a video to DCOA and I’m belting out A Whole New World I won’t be ashamed.
