Didn't realise how much my upper body strength had improved until we moved a wardrobe today. My god... I can *lift*.

Witnessed a crackhead brandishing a chainsaw at a cyclist while hanging out the front passenger window of a shitty old Hyundai Accent and it still doesn't crack the top 5 list of weirdest shit I've ever seen in my lifetime.

Pray for my first-born. They're interstate meeting their partner's family and have wandered into a previously undiscovered circle of hell.

One step closer to getting my 29k up and running again... The needle bar drive arm has been straightened and is back from the shop. My engineering guy is a legend who did it didn't charge me anything so I'm buying him a pack of beer as a thank-you gift instead.

Celeb spotting: Jerry from Gardening Australia just pulled into the parking spot next to me at the supermarket. Managed to play it cool and pretend I didn't notice him.

Discovered that flipping the bird triggers the camera on the other half's phone. So many possibilities...

Celebrating 25 years married to the love of my life with a holiday on a beautiful island 45 minutes from the mainland. Posting this from the one spot with a semi-reliable 4g signal.
Bliss.

My ability to accidentally scare the shit out of people just by quietly vibing on the couch claimed another victim this morning. Bade good morning to one of Mr 16's mates and he jumped out of his skin

Dear retailers: stacking merch low to the floor right in front of the counter for customers with little to no peripheral vision to trip over when they turn to leave is a terrible, terrible idea; doubly so when said merchandise's packaging is the same sad beige colour as your floor tiles.

Guess it's time to get a new photo ID- I now look nothing like the middle-aged soccer mum on my driver's licence from 2023 and it finally caused some minor issues for me today.
It's a good feeling.

Parody song idea: Hurt by Nine Inch Nails, but it's about being middle-aged and doing your back in while performing mundane tasks

Merry Santaggeddon all... Australia's lowest underpass has claimed another victim, so your prezzies might be a little late

Was at the fish and chip shop at 6.30am to pick up a kilo of prawns for Christmas lunch
Grabbed the parcel and one of the pointy little fuckers stabbed me in the hand
(I don't even like seafood)
