Been desperately hoping for the last 48hrs that I was just suffering post-champs fatigue but no, I’m actually sick (post-champs plague, yes probably covid, no I don’t have any tests nor was I eligible for a updated vaccination)

My 3yo old niece today clocked her grandma’s knee replacement surgery scar, and the world is truly a weird and wonderful journey of discovery for a toddler.

Went to the vets today to drop off a thank you card for their care of Rio (+nice teabags and biscuits, which is a bit unconventional but felt like it would be appreciated more than chocolates?).

I finally got around to replacing the screen protector on my phone and it is quite nice to scroll without being stabbed by tiny slivers of glass?

the problem with anxiety is that occasionally it’s like living in a building where all the alarms are going off abruptly, sometimes for several days. And even recognising that there is no reason for the alarms, as the alarms are in fact faulty, does not stop the alarms.

More people saw this than I expected & so I want to clarify: our local moorland is peat blanket bog, which is not open water but damp spongy expanses of vegetation with small pockets of exposed peat. When the girls fall in peat bog, it’s not muddy water, it’s liquified soil (more like quicksand).
Horrible stinky creature and perfect angel baby (one of these dogs had previous experience with peat bogs and one did not. Lessons were learned.)

Took the dogs for a walk, forgetting that I currently look like I’ve been making really poor life choices*. I can’t adequately describe this without a rare photo of my face.

Service animals should only be provided by a recognised external organisation who can assess and advocate for the animal throughout its life.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I got to cuddle a puppy today! One of those magical puppies who is just incredibly self-possessed from the start. She did not need any of us, but she was happy for the company & politely willing to entertain our nonsense. She was so calming for the soul.

The problem with being efficient — OR with linear time??? — is that making croutons for soup later just means I have eaten the croutons now.

so remember when this happened on august 5th? My dog is dead now but I’m still dealing with everyone else’s fuckups, but it’s okay, Medivet have forwarded my complaint to be dealt with in 10-14days so that’s something to look forward to, right?
News just in: Ri’s insurance company also fucked up! And paid the vet instead of me! Guess who has more phone calls to make!

What a great evening, love the BFI for allowing special screenings outside of London. 11/10 for Pictureville for their hosting too (& no spoilers!)

horrifying scenes in house as I encounter three (3) giant spiders in the space of 15mins. I know it’s that time of year and all but jfc, I’ve got enough on my mind right now without the spider related jump scares

It is hard to not have Rio here, because she’s been here for 14 years, and the space is tangible. But whilst I’m very sad, I am comforted in knowing she lived a truly full life, and that we made the right decision to let her go before she declined.

If this intends to make it legally compulsory for every adult in Derry to carry something called a "Brit Card", then I'm willing to offer some high-paid consultancy on why this plan might be flawed.

Chose to give my beautiful best girl our last gift, and let her leave this life today. We couldn’t outrun cancer, but Rio tried so very hard and made it further than I could have imagined. She was the gentlest, sweetest girl with an iron will.

Finally got to bed and there’s a fuck off huge spider in the ceiling corner of my bedroom. Obviously I can see him, but more importantly I can HEAR HIM jetsetting about. Maybe I’ll just never sleep again, I’m sure that will work out fine.

In the last 24hrs, I’ve had 3 consecutive hours of sleep, I prevented Rio from choking to death, & I had a screaming argument with my sister where she said some hurtful things that actually didn’t bother me because they were true. All we can do is keep moving forward.

It’s 7:45am, it’s 7° and extremely damp, and I can see a woman wearing shorts in front of me. Shorts! Some people have a constitution for cold that I can barely fathom.

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!
