Spent the night playing guitar, and it was worth it. The new pedal is absolutely incredible! Managed to write a new song for open mic in a few weeks. Was it worth the insane price? I tell myself: yes! Yes it was!

I got an Amazon parcel today with my name and address, but I did not place the order. It had a $20 Shrek picture storybook in it. I'm going to assume it's a joke birthday present from one of my silly friends, but a tiny part of me wonders if it's someone from my past trying to call me an ogre. Either way, how bizarre.
Packing continues today. I have "packed" my strawberries into new tubs, all divided up, topped up with soil and a new layer of mulch on top.
I've got 5 or 6 more big rectangular tubs (the old recycling tubs, for those who remember the pre-wheelie days) and a bunch of pots to put other things into. It's the perfect time of year to be moving plants, which is why I chose now to move. I just need to find somewhere to move to...
If sunday isn't for sitting in bed, reading and napping then when is?
Edit: Glad I have a spare amp in the bedroom. Sleepy cat, guitar, iPad to read SCP's and my phone playing some tunes is perfect.
Monday when you chuck a sickie
Hmmmmmm
Round 4 paint stripper. Wheee!
Is this the first puffer jacket day ?? I do need to venture to the outside
Fashion advice : banana print oodie, striped pj pants and ugg boots. Just because you recognize the existence of the outside, that does not mean that you necessarily endorse it.
Good advice indeed. Unfortunately I have now showered and washed that tangle on my head (turns out there was hair in there) and so I shall pretend for a few hours to be a member of society (have my floppy comfy jeans on though)
Damn, every time I leave this place I delete the memory of how disgustingly huge cockroaches get, and then every time I come back I get a rude shock. ๐คข Loathsome creatures...
And the white stuff that comes out when you thwack it with your thong shudders
In Sydney I had ones that had been poisoned so many times they stopped dying and grew curly wings ๐คฎ
Reminds me of Super Mario Bros where there are those flying turtle things as you progress through the levels
My friends had ones that learned to run upright on their back legs to keep the poison offa their mouth-hand-legs.
Theyโre genuinely invincible
Oh god, flying cockroaches are the end boss nightmare. Ewwwwwww
Probably far too late, but do not play RE2
