Sometimes you are Feeling Bad and then friends invite you to have a drink and play scrabble at a local bar and actually things are nice, sometimes.

I went to the movies last night, a 9pm screening of Wicked at the Palace. There was me, two women siting together, and another trio of two women and a man sitting together. That trio had booked seats in my row, and when I got there, had strewn all their stuff everywhere (bags etc).

The Holly and the Ivy is the best Christmas carol. Specifically Loreena McKennit’s spooky version on A Midwinter Night’s Dream, but all versions fucking slap.
Honourable mentions to the Coventry Carol, God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen and The Carol of the Bells.

I have heard “Running Up That Hill” (one of my favourite songs of all time) on the radio a couple of times in the last few months and every time I am annoyed anew that the radio edit cuts the bridge.

I will go to my grave preferring the G Armstrong Little Women (I enjoyed Gerwig’s version a lot!! But it‘s the 1994 version forever for me).
One of my hotter takes is preferring the 1994 Little Women to the 2019 Little Women, a thing that honestly might just be one of the few cases where nostalgia is tripping me up (though I also just am not on Greta Gerwig's wavelength in quite the right way, I've found). (I LIKE HER A LOT.)

BA in history and english because those were 2 subjects I did best at in high school. Bumbled through call centre and admin roles before settling in the public service in program management. Idk if it’s a career path, I could got here more efficiently if I’d planned it, but I don’t mind where I am.

I bought a PS5 yesterday (secondhand from a friend, we love the circular economy) so I guess RIP to all my other hobbies for a while. I gotta play BG3, the FFVII reboot, etc.

Immensely proud of CMAT for selling out the Forum for her show in January 2026 and getting a second show added!! I’m still honestly thinking about how good her show at the Northcote theatre early in the year, truly one for the ages.
