I've been watching Pluribus for 20 minutes and I'm pretty sure it's not for me...

Ahhh that "life flashing before your eyes" moment when you start choking on something and you're home alone for the next six hours...

Watching a TV program with people in the Foreign Office. Other half: "that doesn't look like the Foreign Office in the Diplomat." Me: "it doesn't look like the Foreign Office that we VISITED IN PERSON either."

I've found a day and a half of holiday allowance I'd forgotten about that needs to be used by the end of the year. What should I do with it? Silly or serious suggestions appreciated.

I suppose that means I won't be able to go for a lunch time run like I planned. Oh well, I am *truly* heartbroken.

We've got a nice new duvet coming tomorrow and I'm in the unusual position of looking forward to going to bed on a night in the future rather than tonight.

I know they're losing but this seems a bit extreme

A Chinook just flew over low enough that the whole house shook. Dramatised reconstruction:

To the tune of "Young Hearts Run Free": 🎶 Our drains run free 🎶 Never be backed up 🎶 Backed up like they used to be

I ate half my bowl of cereal before I realised the oat milk had gone bad 🤢.

I was qualified, I interviewed, I got offered a job, and it allowed me to fulfil my main goal of moving out of my parents' house.

Gotta remember those big ars milfs.

Going into London? On a Sunday evening? What were we thinking?

Are Curry's just recycling Orange branding from 20+ years ago?

I have to admire the optimism of the guy in Toolstation staying "have a good evening" to someone (me) picking up two manhole keys at 4 on a Saturday afternoon.

I'm not a qualified electrician but I think my laptop charger may be "a bit of a death trap". Do I use this as an excuse to buy a whole new laptop or do I do the sensible thing and just buy a new cable...?

I'd never heard of a Cadbury Moro before. It's basically like their attempt at a Mars bar.

Cheers pt 2.

Cheers my dears.

Downside to taking a long lunch: having to work past what feels like finishing time 😢.

The other half goes to bed before me to read. Since the weather turned cold, he's been doing his reading in my half of the bed to warm it up for me before I get in 🥹.

Jesus that Drag Race roast...

OneDrive has reminded me how I used to be even less diligent with keeping my hair reasonably tidy.

BBC News have a segment about hymns on at the moment and it's giving me horror flashbacks to primary school assemblies and the twice-annual trip to the local Baptist church 😭.

I don't know how to feel about Line of Duty coming back. I loved it but honestly it was getting a bit stupid and, while I forget what actually happened, I'm pretty sure it felt reasonably wrapped up at the end of series 6. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I had a phone call from Ocado this afternoon reminding me to finalise my Christmas order "before all the good stuff runs out". Presumably they looked at my current basket and guessed I wasn't really planning on a Christmas dinner made up entirely of 5 bottles of whisky...

I've logged on this morning and can't access any of the files I need to do my job. Oh well...

Judging by the noise the other half just made when he opened the front door, it's cold out.

List 3 things you think you're known for and your followers will tell you if you're right or wrong. 1. Mystery liquids in glasses 2. Typos 3. Never smiling

Work done. Time to make dessert.

Some of the reviews on this loo have me cracking up. www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/arezzo-smart...

Optimistic defibrillator locations, an occasional series...

Oh my

We're watching Clueless. I'd forgotten the role that Paul Rudd in this film played in my gay awakening.

You'll be so jealous of me in about an hour (unless you're a vegetarian or don't eat beef).

It's a grey day at the reservoir.

I feel like getting outdoors today but everywhere is going to be wet, boggy, or flooded isn't it?

The other half and I disagree on whether it is bad form to order takeaway for delivery when the weather is bad. What do you think?

It's feeling a lot like "light a fire and sit in front of it all evening" weather.

Don't mind me, just browsing reclaimed aircraft parts while I eat my muesli. £47 for a thrust reverser panel? £10 for a safety card? £3250 for an emergency exit door from the top deck of a 747?

Watching Drag Race and finding myself asking what compromising material [redacted] has on Ru...

Oh my god everyone I can see the aurora borealis.

I think Thursday is coming for me.

We're watching Black Rabbit. Jude Law's American accent seems quite... approximate.

I cleaned our washing machine pump for the first time ever today (apparently you're meant to do it at least once a year?!). I think that means I've ticked off enough big boy grown up criteria for today.

Two quotes about tonight's dinner: "it's not going to be good but it will be dinner" "it's somehow simultaneously wet and dry"

Do we pay £770 to upgrade our heating or do we just stay a bit colder than we'd like 🤔?

I mean, look, it's not wrong, is it?

I'm trying magnesium supplements to see if they help me sleep better. Apparently they are also laxatives. Tonight could go one of two ways. But hopefully not both at the same time.

As a child and teenager, I drank exclusively orange juice, Dr Pepper and tea with two sugars (and maybe some cheap booze towards the end of that time period...) and yet I have zero fillings. My teeth are dental marvels.
