My new year's resolution to listen to more diverse music has, once again, failed. It's not even close.

Finished listening to The Ledge by Christian White and had to immediately grab a copy from the library because how did I miss the hints for a plot twist that huge?! Going to spend the next few evenings rereading the present day chapters to figure it out 💙📚💬

I've always wondered how people could read more than 2-3 books a month but after finishing a book in less than a week I've discovered it's audiobooks and mindless work tasks. The number of books I read is about to skyrocket

Four Seasons in Japan by Nick Bradley is such a beautiful book, I loved it! It has frustratingly human characters that are too easy to relate to but what a pleasure it was to journey with them for an in-novel year #booksky

This year I took part in #DailyDracula for the first time and whew, what a ride! A fantastic 6 months of regular reading now over. Such a fun concept, I'd thoroughly recommend for next year #booksky

The carrot cake muffins I made for morning tea at work went down a treat today. Everyone said they were great, but personally I think the cream cheese frosting carried the sponge 😋 #baking

A pregnant woman was shocked to realize her sonogram resembled her dog's face. Inês Egner went in for her 20-week anatomy scan and left with a photo that looked exactly like her dog, Goulash. She said, "In truth, we do like to jokingly refer to the dog as our son." 14/10 (TT: inesverse)

Today I did a truly awful job of packing my running gear: I took my towel out of my bag (because I wasn't going to spin class so I clearly didn't need it) and I packed my partner's shorts (not the first time I've done this but our waists are similar sizes so it's fine) #running #runningfails

I loved listening to The Very Secret Society Of Irregular Witches ❤️ such a heartwarming and low stakes book with engaging and lovable characters (especially the kids!). I did have a niggling idea of the final plot twist but that just made it better! #booksky #books #reading #audiobooks

Loved making this octopus so much I made it 3 times! The tentacles are super fun to see curl as you go back over the chain. All octopi have gone to their new owners & hopefully will be well loved 🐙 ❤️ Pattern: www.crochet365knittoo.com/crochet-octo... #crochet #yarncraft #craft #octopus #baby #gift

Melbourne's tram system is wild, some 'stations' are just places where the tram stops in the middle of a busy road and you have to hope as you step out you aren't immediately hit by a car

Hey - it's my research group! Have a read of the important science that we do 🧪 🌊
From the wave-lashed surface to the deep sea, the Southern Ocean Time Series is a crucial tool for scientists to keep the pulse of this important region of Earth.
An underwater observatory keeping the pulse of the Southern Ocean for nearly 30 years yields fresh results

I've spent all this month trying to fix lab equipment that kept coming up with more problems whenever I solved one. It's true that science doesn't get done without lab techs, and now I'm officially counting down to my holiday #science #labtechlife

Found out today that the local intercity cycleway has a solar system model on it 🌞 I've seen and heard of these before but something about finding one in the wild unexpectedly has really tickled me. Absolutely love it

A while ago I thought it was a bit silly going on holiday less than a month after moving into a new house. I'm t-36 hours from moving and wish the holiday was sooner

My biggest cross stitch project is finished! Took me 10 months to complete and I've spent the last 2 days turning it into a tapestry ready for hanging. So happy with how it's turned out 🥳

Starting to feel like I'm reaching the end of a marathon with my x-stitch project. Started it last August, I'm about 85% through and can see the end. But every time I pick it up it's a heavier mental weight #crossstitch #xstitch #needlework #craft
