I am addicted garlic toast at the minute, like badly addicted, I can feel my heart (and some of my other organs) crying out in dismay.

I had some cheesy garlic focaccia this afternoon and it was amaaazing. Focaccia was fashionable in the 90’s and seems to be making a comeback

My stomach is protesting about the whole head of broccoli I gave it at breakfast 😔

I keep squishing and tripping on Melbcat today. She’s so quiet and gets so close 😢 When she hides under the blanket or creeps up behind me I don’t always see her

Poor kitty.

Maybe her new name should be pancake cat.

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

It’s my own fault for letting her beg in the kitchen. I’ve restored her round shape with another wet meal

One uni assignment finished this morning, and I've sorted out my subject enrollment for next year. I was originally planning on doing a unit on Backyard Biodiversity, but after the gardening and house planning units I decided to swap in something completely different, and am doing "Living and Working with Cultural Diversity". I've also enrolled in another course after this, focusing on climate change - I was planning to do two subjects a semester, but the electives I want to do aren't available at the right time, so I have to do three subjects in first term next year.

If I'm still enthusiastic after that (and can get my financial ducks in a row) I plan to enroll in a double science (sustainability) and economics degree. Or maybe if there are still HECS waiver courses on offer I'll do another one of those - you can't get much better value than free!

I’ve slept all day and wrecked my sleeping pattern. This is not good. 🙁

Turns out we didn't win $60 Million last night. Ahh well, it probably would have introduced almost as many problems as it would have solved.

Got all the cleaning and titivating done, and the inspection went well, though they were more looking at the block than the house.
Anyway they're very keen, to the point they were waiting outside when the estate agent turned up. Which is promising. Cross fingers, everyone!
