It says a lot that US health insurance companies are now focused on beefing up security for their CEOs instead of focusing on NOT BEING CUNTS. Sigh. Sorry, folks. Been a long day. Didn't mean to say the c-word. Beefing up security for their C**s. There. That's better. Have a pretty pic.

Had a CT today. Needed contrast. Boss of the wash was in charge. "Your dad was an educator," he said, "so you won't mind if my trainee puts her first cannula in your arm, right?" Fuck me, no pressure. Talk about faulty logic. But okay, yeh, go for it. Small towns, man. She did okay. #medsky

I come from a long line of working class English, Scots & Irish. Farm labourers, boilersmiths, sawyers, coalmen, joiners & coppers. Couldn't be prouder to be honest. Just working to keep their kids fed and their elders housed. Here's my 2nd great grandfather, Thomas John Henderson. A plod. #proud

I discovered today that I can write whilst listening to Senate. Not sure this is an endorsement for either my work nor #auspol. Stupid day but, hey I planted four pots of herbs and a pot of lavender as well. So, yay! Have a pic of Dora helping:

I chased my tail all day long today. Arse saved by a couple of colleagues. Gotta love that. Also love that my boo verbalised an idea that had been floating in my head for 24 hours before I'd even found the words. Also, corn and tomatoes appear to be surviving. Ordered 1kg of seed potatoes. Good day.

Guys, I'm a Wicked purist, right. Saw it 12 times onstage (7 times in the West End, early). I was super sceptical of the film espesh after hearing they'd split it in two. But my god what a job they've done. Superb. No notes. 13/10. Would recommend. #wicked

Took my old mum a new pair of shoes. Didn't recognise me. (Mum, not the shoes.) That's okay. I miss her sometimes, when I get reminders of what good company she was. Napped thru some good sport. Wicked tomorrow, natch. And the garden -- corn to plant. Worried for a friend. Life, eh? Have a bird.

Arseclown day, not untypical for a Thursday, tbh. Wrote a bit, growled a bit, pulled things out of my freckle. Combed the cat endlessly because hairballs. Evening spent on Great British Menu & Sewing Bee. My head's jammed with politics both big and small. Ugh. Test Match tomoz huzzah! Have a Dora

Wrote some stuff. Wrangled some stuff. Shared some stuff. Spent the evening discussing various iterations of Cabaret, as you do. Reading Charles Spencer's A Very Private School. Grim but very well done. Have a Dora pic:
