Good morning! The zoo looked lovely, it’s making me want to visit.
Last time out I got horribly drunk at a work event the following day, was mistaken for a prostitute, broke up with someone for voting Tory after another bottle of wine of the train home, went home crying to a tiny rented flat, and accidentally told my brother I’m bi…
It’s been a strange few years.
He’s only away three months this time, so it’s not too bad!
But absolutely yay for fun voting times!
I get to do a proxy vote this year* and I’m a little bit too excited by it!
*fiancé will be overseas in July
When I used to work with the bin collection crews we’d take the trucks to schools for trips and show them to the little children. I’ve never felt as cool as when I got to boost kids into the front seat and show them that ladies can be strong *and* work with massive vehicles!
I just have my “books I want to read” list, and it’s on that - I’m basic but it works?
Well I have meeting tomorrow with our reception venue to find out why they’re trying to gouge money out of us for things already covered by our agreed price, so how big a sacrifice might they like…?
Thankfully not, I think that might have broken me today.
Both my boots sprung leaks though.
Was also knocking over a can of Monster on my desk a lucky incident?
Me, channeling my inner Snoop Dogg: today is gonna be an amazing day!
Also me: knocks entire open box of 300 cotton buds onto the floor…
Good morning! It’s Tuesday and that means it’s peopling day - yay?
I made this mistake for a long time, then had to reprogram my brain to stop it. Got paid for a short story and have been calling myself “a professional writer” ever since in the hope it will help the imposter syndrome…
But my unique aura would also blend seamlessly - they told me so this morning?! Admittedly it was on my strongwoman insta which makes slightly more sense. But still.
I feel less special now.
I had to bite my knuckle not to say exactly that. The withering look I got when I didn’t reply immediately and he realised why…
I don’t know why this poor man puts up with me.
The level of self-control I just exhibited when my partner asked me to comment on the differences between the painting he’s done on two tanks.
Two *camouflage* tanks.
I deserve a medal. At the very least a cookie.
I’m pretty sure they still work on the principle of “old people love the military but hate young people” coupled with “young people don’t read the news or vote”. So in their minds it’s a no-brainer. Ironically.
I like to live as a poster child for why book learning does not equate to street smarts.
This is the coolest interaction ever.
I love this for you, and for both of them!
Sadly not likely until after next weekend, and I am most put out about it.
It’s so pretty it almost makes me want to visit the planet. Almost…
Ooh, my old home town! Might see if the olds want to come. Or I might just come on my own…
I've just seen someone refer to the "genny lex" and I think I'd like to be let off the planet at the next stop please...
Going to pretend I didn’t get 60% through reading this manuscript on my phone before I realised I could have just opened it on my tablet and saved my eyesight…
Already requested a proxy vote for the bloke, as he’ll be roughly 8000 miles away on election day. Lucky git.
I don’t want to play any more - will you write me a note to get me out of class for the next six weeks?!
