truly in bizzaro world training for my new job😂 Had to in to work at 11am, when I normally start at 3pm. I guess the cat is out of the bag today and I’m not sure how thrilled people are😂 Too busy running around. Stripey was not amused when I left😹

Happy birthday to @funsize04.bsky.social from me and your biggest cat fan Stripey💜

this is the face of a cat being engrossed with @chubicki.bsky.social talking about #survivor50 with @robcesternino.bsky.social on #RHAP.

so I’ve been caught in car mechanic mixup situation since 9:30am. Resulting in the fix I expected plus them catching another mechanics mistakes from something that happened 13 days ago. Resulting in a full refund and still another hour to go😩 Hit me with your #carnightmares or any entertainment.

as you can tell Stripey was invested listening to @kirstensaidwhat.bsky.social and @brianscally.bsky.social talk about Love Island today😂

slowly infiltrating my last hour of work, where there are no customers, with podcasts. Two nights ago @kirstensaidwhat.bsky.social Love Island recap and last night #TheArchers omnibus these two shows might only be on my Venn diagram but my fellow coworker got invested on both😹

Stripey is all in for the Star Wars drama with @funsize04.bsky.social😂

this week has been a disaster, car out of commission as my battery died permanently during a storm and my phone also died😞 So grateful for my fantastic friends who had a spare phone and are driving me to work for another week until I can fix my car. If anyone has spare change for a battery dm me😂

so I’ve been listening to and loving all of @kirstensaidwhat.bsky.social Love Island pods. Stripey, however, has become confused as I think he is waiting to hear @funsize04.bsky.social as he thinks it’s Mess Magnets. Finally, today, he was okay with @brianscally.bsky.social 😹 - baby steps.

so we always watch the VOD but this is how Stripey watched @pooyaism.bsky.social Duck, Duck Goose stream this week😹

when your friends at work are downsizing their library and offer up free books you go shopping in their car after your shift in the pouring rain😂 #booksky

someone was napping until he heard the theme song @shannongaitz.bsky.social 😹 He is locked in💜

still at work, but here I am with one of my fav bosses! Hopefully I’ll survive the last hour and half😂

tomorrow, well technically today is the last day of Spirit Week at work. Which color dress should I wear for Hawaii day? I already have my lei.

this is what Stripey looks like listening to @ayshalikeasia.bsky.social , Sarah and @mattscottgw.bsky.social chat on Life Bi Us. I truly loved the conversation you all had. Had the SDA similarities with Sarah and being a preachers kid I really appreciated the introspective chat about faith.

my reading stats for the month! I can’t believe I finished 11 books. My audio books are done via Chirp when I’m ubering see alt text for thoughts on the books themselves #booksky

it’s just past 2 am and this is the face of Stripey McStriperson listening to @donlon.bsky.social and @mattscottgw.bsky.social on @podfriends.bsky.social 😹 I did not pose this. He heard the two of you and did this.

what happens 5 seconds after @robcesternino.bsky.social introduces @donlon.bsky.social he deserts his food and sprints in to hear his bff😂

what Stripey does when he hears a wheel spin on @thediaryroom.bsky.social 😹 He does not approve of Mum posting this on her work break.

so it was suspiciously quiet when I was listening to @davidbloomberg.bsky.social and @jessicalewis89.bsky.social last podcast…so I searched for Stripey and found his new hiding spot😹 On top of clean bedding with a perfect sunspot. Totally ignoring the cat tree in the other room.

well I just finished #TheArchers omnibus edition and had my weekly chat with my Mum. What an ending! Now I have to listen to @thecidershedpod.bsky.social and @dumteedum.bsky.social to hear their thoughts😹

just watched The Crash on Netflix and I wonder if @crimeseenpod.bsky.social is going to cover it and what @sarahcarradine.bsky.social and @maritalks2much.bsky.social think about the case a whole. I think that it represented all of people involved and certainly made me feel a range of emotions .

watched four of the five @robcesternino.bsky.social interviews live on #RHAP before work and came back to watch Tiffany’s and the red carpet interviews after. Really appreciate all the content 💜 Someone else tuned in for the red carpet 😹

so Stripey just heard his name being said by @ayshalikeasia.bsky.social on Life Bi Us😂. I was not prepared - so here is baby Stripey to compensate no reaction shot. Yes I listen to episodes out of order💜 Hi to Mowgli💜

listening to @ayshalikeasia.bsky.social, @paigeseber.bsky.social, @flutedyke.bsky.social and Sarah chat while giving Stripey a catnip lollipop is the dream reset before going to work. I’m not sure what planet Stripey is currently on but I was able to leave him happy and loved the chat💜

You’re trapped in the last TV show you watched. Where are you—

listening to @freeagents.bsky.social and Stripey has been traumatized by the @brianscally.bsky.social running through the Wes noises and the joint imitations of Wes’s laugh with @mattliguori.bsky.social 😹

catching up on @ayshalikeasia.bsky.social and Sarah’s Life Bi Us podcast and I may not have Tik Tok but my goodness did I love watching the show Countdown when I lived in UK. Love hearing you both talk about it.

thanks to my work schedule I can never watch Survivor live; but I always read up on my break and today devastated me😞 My favorites both gone in one night. I know all my votes are going to Cirie #Survivor50

just wanted to show Stripey is fine though he hates my new work schedule😹 We watched Send Help after work last night…certainly will watch it again. He got a bonus meal @chappellskickback.bsky.social - before I left for work.

just caught up on the last episode of @podfriends.bsky.social 😹 I loved hearing everyone’s stories so much and @mattscottgw.bsky.social it was so beautifully edited. I wish I could have taken a picture of Stripey as he literally wrapped himself around my arm and listened to all the stories💜

we had phone calamities yesterday😹 Thankfully the least expensive option worked and while Mum’s been doing stuff Stripey caught up on @doingmoore.bsky.social latest Clocktower stream😹

this is what happens when I miss a month😹 Here are my #booksky reads that I completed in March and April. See alt text for more thoughts 😹

well I owed Stripey’s podcast after work and we obviously picked @thediaryroom.bsky.social 😹 Picture one is from his mad sprint from the far end of apartment from when the music started. Picture two is his wheel spin face😹 I think he sympathized with @pooyaism.bsky.social

Stripey is celebrating #caturday by listening to @crimeseenpod.bsky.social with @maritalks2much.bsky.social and @sarahcarradine.bsky.social - slowly catching up listening to dirty rotten scoundrels episodes. See photo to find his unique listening spot😹

for my fellow cat people out there. Stripey would like to highly recommend Bonkers Purr Pops - Crazy for Catnip😹 Best treat ever as marked from survival from Mum’s inventory week #cats #bonkerspurrpops

listening to his buds @kirstensaidwhat.bsky.social and @funsize04.bsky.social for compensation of being tortured by Mum😹 Mum is also alive after his first bath that she gave without another adult present.

someone is not letting me go anywhere today😹 The tale of inventory in two pictures. Podcast Stripey is listening to is @amikebloomtype.bsky.social talking about Australian Survivor with Keeley.

so happy inventory is done! I worked almost 13 hours each of the last two days and I’m SO happy not to work today😹 Absolute devastation watching @chubicki.bsky.social go home. I would watch him play a million times. His enthusiasm gives me joy💜

devastated about #Survivor50 - stuck in inventory purgatory waiting for an all clear does not help with the mood😹 Please Cirie hold on and win it all💜

so I have the @robhasapodcast.bsky.social patron buff on at work; as we are in inventory mode and I’m running around like I’m on the Amazing Race. A customer asked me what season the buff was from. We then talked about #RHAP and explained it was @robcesternino.bsky.social and they said conga line😹

it is inventory week at work so I’m exhausted. However I’m currently grinning from ear to ear listening to @thediaryroom.bsky.social. Loving listening to Britney, @amanadwin.bsky.social and @mattliguori.bsky.social

in the catching up on podcasts day this morning has been brought to you by Life Bi Us with @ayshalikeasia.bsky.social and Sarah. We are currently listening to the @briceizyah.bsky.social interview and I had to grab this shot of the bath conversation as a bath fan💜 This is his I’m invested face 😹

Not my spelling error, fixed it 🤦‍♀️

Nothing hits in life quite like a saucy voting confessional #Survivor50

what does one do when they get out of work three hours early? This someone starts catching up on @crimeseenpod.bsky.social with @sarahcarradine.bsky.social and @maritalks2much.bsky.social Feel free to look at the date to see how far behind I am😹

the location of my podcast streaming device has changed so that if Stripey wants to sit on it Mum’s phone can charge and she can do things nearby😹 Here he is listening to @funsize04.bsky.social and @kirstensaidwhat.bsky.social talk about a show Mum has never watched 😹

Happy Birthday @chappellskickback.bsky.social! Thank you for all the joy that you bring and consistently making me 🤣 Stripey even willingly allowed himself to be photographed and that is a testament to how much he listens to you.

things that I’m happy about😹 I made it to my weekend and @freeagents.bsky.social are done talking about the Island - easily my least favorite season of The Challenge. Every time they speak against The Gauntlet I vehemently disagree 😹

finally done with the work week. Normally I have Friday and Saturday off; but the last few Fridays. 5 am wakeups are not my friend. This photo is Stripey listening to his bffs talk about House of Villains @jennyautumn.bsky.social , @chappellskickback.bsky.social and @robcesternino.bsky.social
