Neighbour's music has been LOUD all night. He is downstairs in his living room. I am upstairs in my bedroom. I can still basically sing along with every song. Complaining to the supers does nothing. I hope I win the QE2 Lotto house.

You know when you have a ton of fruit flies and then they die off and you don't? Why don't you find a ton of fruit fly corpses?

I lost a hubcap somewhere between Clayton Park and the VG - anyone notice a Micra hubcap?

Turn off your alarm.

Two more containers of balcony broth cooling.

Brigit lovingly observing my lunch.

Broth is safely in the freezer. Possibly more to come this weekend if I can somehow find more freezer space.

Someone remind me like 2-3 hours from now that I've stuck the chicken broth on the balcony to cool before I stick it in the freezer

I think the chicken broth I am simmering this morning is poultry stock as I'm pretty sure the other frozen carcass I tossed in there was turkey. Oh well, it will smell amazing in a few hours regardless.

Cheery reading while J is away

HalCon weekend has begun. I'll see J again sometime late Sunday or possibly Monday morning.

Excuse me??????

I ordered their TGTG bag today as well and got fancy Italian cookies. (Poe needed to inspect it)

I don't think I'm expecting too much for a 750k condo to offer better than an upright portable air conditioner and scuffed kitchen cupboards - www.realtor.ca/real-estate/...

Zohran Mamdani was born on my 9th birthday. That's neat and also made me feel ancient.

This is what I got in my Too Good To Go bag from Frabjous. I paid $6.99 for a value of $21. I'm pleased with both items.

I grabbed this bag on TooGoodToGo today. Can't wait for J to pick it up this afternoon! If you're interested in using the app, feel free to use my referral link (disclaimer: I get $2 when new users get their first bag): tgtg.onelink.me/OGjG/cs0owvpe

Understance is now accepting orders again if you didn't get in on it last time.

i hope this is how you find out about dick cheney

I love looking up random houses on Realtor. This is very odd wording unless the artist happens to come with the house:

It is weird that we have an international aisle in the grocery store and American foods are not in it. They are so integrated into our day to day life that we consider them domestic.

My cat whipped my work mouse off my desk yesterday and I discover this morning it will no longer click. Glad I have a back up mouse.

J bought me a treat at Ikea!

If you have a ping pong lover in your life, this table is a great deal at Canadian Tire Dartmouth Crossing, by the front doors.

November brings the start of East Idaho News Secret Santa series on YouTube. One of my favorite things about this time of the year. youtu.be/pL9Hp83_QCg?...

9.5 hours of sleep makes up slightly for the awful sleep the night before.

My dad's dad and my mum's mum both LOVED the Blue Jays. I'm sure they'd both be glued to the TV right now. I'm not a sportsball person, but I hope heaven gets cable sports.

Game nights with friends are fun but so is coming home and going to bed.

No kids in over half an hour so we're shutting down and letting FIL get some sleep.

Pumpkins J carved at my father in law's place.

First group of kids went wild over potatoes.

Zero trick or treaters so far at my father in law's place.

Booked my next routine mammogram and they are booked out until next November in Halifax/Dartmouth! If you're holding off on scheduling yours, don't!

Booked my before-Christmas eyebrow wax early this year, just in case she fills up. I didn't book on the 23rd but she only had 2 appointments left that day!

I'm sorry that it's taking place on Halloween but I love a good fall storm.

Big slowdowns in both directions of the MacKay... Assumed it was a collision... Heard from a listener.... IT'S PORTA POTTIES!!! They got blown ONTO the MacKay (allegedly...) #HFXTraffic

Holy fuck it's pitch black outside.

So excited to listen to the new Florence + The Machine album today!

I got a title in WoW Mists of Pandaria classic that I have been trying to get in retail for ages and ages. Made my day a little shinier.

*work-related grumblings*

Spotify recommended Spooky Halloween Lofi to me this morning, for relaxing ghostly vibes: open.spotify.com/playlist/37i...

Nova Scotia Power has gone most of the summer without having an opportunity to take out your power. Which means they've been saving it all for this rainstorm. Charge your stuff.

I should buy a bag of potatoes so I can offer potatoes to kids tomorrow night.

Understance order came! For the first time in my life, I have pretty bras!!

I'm generally a pretty awful sleeper and wake up every 2 hours or so. Over the last few weeks I've had some stretches of 4-5 hours, which is great except I'm so unused to it that my body feels fully rested and expects to be awake for the day at 3 or 4am. Takes hours to get back to sleep.

It's nice having the rain as I fall asleep 2 nights in a row.

@goodmorninghfx.bsky.social are you at home this morning? You are the only person I know in Waverley.

I bought a cat steamer brush and I think Poe would let me use it on him til he was bald. Absolutely adores it. Brigit on the other hand is flat out terrified of the thing. a.co/d/etFr3y1

Supper and dessert are cooking away. A nice stew and delicious apple crisp (with ice cream in the freezer)
