Another one? Why not!!

Monday.  16th.  Ok day.  Well other not being able to see all day.  Everything was out of focus all day :(  Music after work.  Did another tuna casserole, but forgot to put in the mustard I got out, and didn't have any chili.  Also didn't fry the onions first because I didn't have time. 

I also fixed the search on my blog.  For reasons unknown it's now taking ~12 second to do a search, which is over the throttle limit.  No idea why, it never used to do that before.  Anyways, in 
MT-5.2.2/lib/MT/Core.pm
I changed
'SearchThrottleSeconds'     => { default => 30 },
(it was 5 previously).

I still haven't fixed the problem of getting a "405 Not Allowed" (nginx) whenever I post.  Fortunately it does actually post.

Tuesday.  Had Kit come over in the evening.  Had sausages and salad for dinner and ate and drank and chatted so that was lovely.

Wednesday.  18th.  Twenty years since the bushfires in Canberra.  I wasn't here then, but I did blog about it.  Herbert's with Frank and Karen and Tony, as a last hurrah before going into quarantine.

This was on Spider's monitor at work and I rescued it and took it outside

Thursday.  Woke up at ~3:20 for like two hours.  Sigh.  Felt like a Friday because I was home after being at work.

Friday.  Slept somewhat better.  Except then it felt like a Saturday.  Sigh.  Did twenty minutes of weeding during the day.  Did some actual cleaning in the afternoon which made me feel like I'd actualy achieved something.  Felt like I had a sore throat all day.  Leftover chicken for dinner.  Two episodes of Bocchi the Rock.  Went for a wander with the sweetie so he could play with his new camera.

Saturday.  Woke up at ~1am and didn't get back to sleep until after 5.  Sigh.  So a complete zombie day.  Also my throat was very sore - it hurt to swallow.  But not like a viral sore throat - more like a bacterial sore throat. I know I did a load of washing and a couple of small jigsaws, but I don't really remember much else.  Oh I did setup a travel blog. Made a nice salad to go with dinner Stu cooked - pork mince meatballs.  Then finished Bocchi the Rock.  

Sunday.  So by all accounts it seems third party apps are officially banned from Twitter.  I put up post that said something like

"I can't believe @elonmusk is still blocking @echofon.  Is he *trying* to push people away from the platform??  What a bad manager.  Watching @twitter die a slow painful death".

And had my account suspended for 12 hours for "engaging in targeted harassment of someone".  Bots clearly can't read tense, or understand any context.  Just pick up on a few key words and make assumptions.  It's still suspended I think because it wanted my phone number to reactivate.  Meh.  Twitter is going to implode.  At least if Elon Musk is allowed to keep running it into the ground.  And then I'll laugh.  I joined fifteen years ago as a way to post updates on our honeymoon.  Other than Chris Hadfield, Aviation Herald, Flightradar24 and posting Wordle scores I really don't care about Twitter anymore anyway.  

Talked to David in the morning about our cruise and we planned out the shore excursions we want to do.  We both like to see as much as possible, don't want to pay for crap we don't have to, and stress about taking cameras near water.  And he one point he said "isn't it nice that our interests align" which I thought was pretty cool :) 

Went for another walk with the sweetie in the afternoon.

Roast turkey for dinner, and finished season 2 of The Crown.  And my throat was feeling much better hurray!
