I made a cramique loaf of bread, it has sultanas, chopped turkish apricots, eggs, nutellex ( instead of butter ) , sugar and vanilla. It's a Belgian breakfast bread. It's kneaded well so it's like bread, not like a cake or brioche.

Sounded yumm until you mentioned nuttelex. But given the dairy sensitivity, maybe a free pass on that front. I have an irrational hatred of nuttelex.

*adjusts clock to breakfast *
have toasted with butter and jam
the one I made tastes different to the bought ones, most were supermarket breads as it's a traditional bread and not many bakers make it. I figured it was because I don't use boatloads of sugar, just a few tbsps. The Jam is all the sweetener you need.

A woman at work resigned in such a hurry she left her umbrella here. I wonder what's going to happen to it
This happened at a previous workplace, and ended up really complicated to be honest. I'd tell you, but it might go over your head.
Sounds like one case where it's better to be clear of the downpour and left high and dry

We had many redundancies years ago with very little notice given. There was a lot of stuff left behind in the kitchen. I believe the large volume of abandoned cereal was a major contributor to the serious pantry moth infestation we had a bit later.
You have to take those small revenges where you can. Maybe I should have some backup food somewhere if anything happens
Crushed peanuts. Pantry moths love them. Runner up would be a muesli mix (especially if it contains nuts). If you can hide it down the back of the cupboard a moth infestation can develop quietly, unnoticed until the larvae head out to find new food sources and you you get traumatised staff horrified by the "maggots" crawling through all the food.
I'll have a packet of peanuts ready to turn into a moth bomb if I ever think the day is coming. Thank you
Bad reading: panty moths. Do not want.
Just keep peanuts and muesli out of your panties and you should be fine.

I live in a building that has both serviced apartments and actual homeowners and tenants in it. For the ~3 years I've been here, the serviced apartment sold monthly Internet to tenants (access to their wifi) which was great, and they'd OFTEN forget to deactivate my code for logging in (I haven't paid for a new code in about 9 months). Last night I was kicked off. Today i got around to asking reception what was going on, and they will no longer be offering tenants access π so my super cheap Internet is gone and I need to put on my big boy pants to get new Internet π
We had free wi-fi for about 7 years. YL complained it was crap. She didn't know we got it for free and we weren't gonna alert TPG to that fact after such a long time.
*It was TPG's fault we weren't charged for it after repeated emails with credit card details from us.

Woke up wondering why I feel especially crappy and realised that with the hectic emotional roller-coaster of this week, I haven't had a fresh vegetable since Monday. Whoops.

Oh wow. Melbcat was in her bed by the window and when I brought her afternoon tea in I saw a huge magpie perched really close to the window just observing. It was basically standing over her watching her sleep.
I wonder what that was about.

Christmas done - late this year - and tax finally filed. Wooo me adulting.
nearly over the vaccinations, they were a little rough
Glad you're on the mend β€οΈ
Good to hear you are feeling better. I don't do the covid vax anymore, it knocks me around way too much. The flu one I've never had more than a sore arm and mild headache from though, so I get that every year. I don't know why the covid one hates me so much, I've been vaccinated up to my eyeballs with everything else and had no trouble.
thanks for the kind thoughts π
I get the covid vax because I go on public transport a lot and because I have vulnerable people in the fam
and I don't want it either, it scares me

Absolute fucking banger. Honestly, their only decent album.
Edit: also snuck out of work early which is awesome
I cancel my Spotify sub and then they come out with lossless and it's great π 2 more weeks until I lose premium, so I'm going to annoy my neighbours with my music
#yolo
Edit: I have made a bogan cocktail: red goon, blackcurrant cordial, ice, water. Cheers! π·

How busy do you think the new stations will be on Sunday? I know two kids that would love to go
Probably very busy on day 1 of opening, but they're big stations so I don't think it will be shoulder-to-shoulder or anything like that. Depends on your / kids tolerance with crowds. I'm going to wait a few weekends to do the full tour, the stations aren't going anywhere.
to the tune of Get Lucky
Up all night cos sleepβs fucky
I'm finding airplane noises at these hours quite unsettling

Hopefully I can keep myself busy today so time goes faster.
Quick look at Melbourne Central on my way home from office and it was nuts. Went into one store and then straight on the train home, not in a crowded shopping centre mood at all. I mean Iβm not sure if one is ever in that mood.
