Sunday. 23rd. Roasted some veggies to have with some leftover meat. Watched The Crown then had an early night.
Monday. Slept mostly ok except for numb hands every five minutes overnight. Been really fricken annoying lately. Sadly my ancient cory (that I got as one of five in 2015 and was the only survivor of the Two Foot Tank of Death Fiasco) had died. This was it a couple of weeks ago when it was starting to look like maybe it was on its way out..
Day was ok. Trying to document some stuff but finding problems. Man I really shouldn't look at things. Saw three of my birds at lunch. Then it was all dingbats and numbskulls in the afternoon, including some sheer incompetance. Leftovers for dinner (mmmmm end bits from the roast pork we did at the club Saturday night). Finished culling days 15/16 of Europe photos. Day 15 wasn't too bad but day 16 was pretty hard. Too many photos that look similar and hard to choose the best.
Tuesday. Couldn't get to sleep til past midnight :( Then numb hands again. Sigh. Another crazy day with all the peeps talking to me. Cooked creamy pasta for dinner which was nice (added a bunch of leftover peas which didn't really work texturewise but did add some vegetation).
Finished culling up to day 19. There's a third series of War on Waste on iView, but I realised I haven't seen season two, so went back to start watching that. Booked tickets for Indiana Jones, but seriously why TF do they charge booking fees to book online?? Surely they'd be encouraging that to save having to pay box office staff? Dodgy Dendy strikes again. Hate. I probably didn't even need to book in advance, it was clear it wasn't going to be anywhere near full.
Wednesday. Slept a bit better. Busy day again. Went and did a screen test at work. I doubt they'll want me for any sort of video, but you never know for audio. After work went and had Disappointing Sushi with the sweetie (so called because the hot stuff is *always* cold). But because the sweetie is a regular at lunch, the owner brought out a complimentary plate of KFC, which was fresh out of the fryer and pretty awesome, so that was really nice :)
Then we went and saw Indiana Jones, which I'll put in another post.
Thursday. Slept ok. The sweetie didn't though. Several nights in a row of not being able to get to sleep til like 1, 2 or 3 o'clock, stressing about All The Things (mostly work). Poor thing. Yet another crazy busy day. Had a vendor meeting in the afternoon so was late to drinks :( Pity because it was busy too. Pizza for dinner (mac and cheese! which was actually pretty decent) then into Season 5 of Death in Paradise.
Friday. Completely overwhelming day. Had to just STOP at one point and list All The Things that people had been hassling me about to I could prioritise to get things done. Did manage to get a lot done (once I had a chance to breathe) and finished up at 16:00 so could head out to the club. Slightly more relaxed this Friday than last, but not by much. Had to have a laugh at some point because I said "Hey Siri, tell me a story", and she spouted out half a dozen bizarre little short stories. Straight out of AI, as the text isn't Googleable. Also, funny fire is funny..
Oh, I also finished making an iceberg out of Vic's huge pile of 1x4 bricks
Saturday. Slept ok (and the sweetie slept somewhat better as well). Did a bit of work around our van tidying up leaves and such, then joined the club working bee. Just ended up helping load/unload trailerfulls of logs, and helping distribute road base on the main driveway.
Anyone know what this is??
Came home and cooked a basa bake and a cauliflower bake (I won't mention the massive pile of MOLDY CHEESE I had to pick out after throwing on top of the cauliflower bake, WTF Woollies???) and then watched Indiana Jones, Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Sunday. Woke up after 1 for over three hours. Sigh. Then ended up sleeping in til past 8 - two hours of my day WASTED to insomnia. Felt completely overwhelmend with life - culling is just so damned HARD and there's so much HOUSEWORK TO DO. In the end really all I got done was to tidy a bunch of surfaces and rearrage all the clutter somewhat. Sigh.
Oh also, bookings247 has been hacked!! I got an email to the email address I use only for that site (which I've actually only ever used once, to find accommodation for Kit's wedding) telling me I'd signed up for Norton antivirus. It had my name and last four digits of my credit card. I left a comment on their website, but bet you any money they fob me off.

I'm half tempted to call the number to see what BS they spin. But that would require talking to people. Which I hate. Sigh.
