I was typing some instructions: “if you get to this point and you can’t see this has happened” and AI predictive text turned it into “if you get toilet paper.” 🧻 lovely. Just what I wanted.

@beckeleven.bsky.social last night I had a dream that I was delivered a tray of lobsters along with a cat that was desperate to eat the lobsters but needed me to dismember them. I don’t know how to dismember lobster 🦞 so a cat can eat it or even a human for that matter. Do cats even eat lobster? 🦞

Songwriting update: song 1 finished. Song 2 still to finish. Both to transcribe: before the 10th. As well as doing two day jobs. I will do this . I will. I will.

I’m not allowed to go back to the gym this week until I have finished my songs due on the 10th. I have 2 final choruses to record, an edit to do, 1 more song to finish and record and both to transcribe. And 2 other day jobs to do around this creative project. Crikey.

Anyone got any magical hayfever eye remedies? I have double dosed antihistamine tabs, I have used the eyedrops and a cold compress. Still swollen whites-now-reds

Oh hello hayfever eyes. 👀 bad bad bad

I am waiting for my favourite shoe shop to have a Black Friday sale and it’s not happening yet. Waity Katie stomps her impatient feet. Maybe they’re too snobby to have a sale. Snobs.

Now tell me actual Black Friday won’t happen until Saturday here, right?

I have had aaaaaaalllll the students today with NDA self-tape auditions. First it was Community Musicals, now it is professional screen productions. Sigh.

Saw a great canterbury short film spotlight tonight. Go @cleverdilemma.bsky.social ‘s editing on Homecoming! And @vanessawells.bsky.social mayday is incredible! The drone footage, and the concept, and Emma B- amazing 🤩 also really loved My Dying Place, it was so moving! Xx

Gym and physio is done. ✅ but now I feel like I have a pulled muscle in my tummy.

Morning all, this is the actual size of my heart, it’s filled with love for all my furriends. It’s so big it makes up for my little limbs . Have a lovely day everyone .#adoptdontshop #rescuecats #monday #love

I have an important pigeon question: when pigeons are cream and brown coloured are they baby pigeons? Of teenage pigeons? Or another sort of pigeon altogether?

Then I did physio and the gym. This deserves TWO awards.

I had tuna, cucumber and tomato salad for lunch. This deserves an award. 🥇

I’m tired can I just have a wee nap pleeeease ?

I’m not doing secret Santa but anyways… My favourite food is cream cheese icing. 🧁 just the icing, not the cake.

Oops. My personal battery went flat and I fell asleep . No pomodoros

8 more pomodoros to do now. Had to stop for other work.

10 pomodoros to go today!

You all thought I was going to buy something girly and silly. I did buy something pink… but pink and sensible… a Sharesie!

If I do my exercise today I get a prize from the online bribery cupboard. 🏆

After my weeks of pre-audition coaching exhaustion… 2 of my students got the lead roles they wanted in their respective musicals. Thrilled.

Song update: song written, vocal stylings to do next.Ooowooo Woah Yeah Alright . Proud of myself for achieving a lot musically in a difficult weekend otherwise.

I do love a good storm. ☔️

And now I have the song written but no intro and outro and I have to fix up ALL the piano bits because the piano alone is the rhythm section. Poor pianist.

Hot and tired. On a deadline for 10 Dec. I have Verse 1, and 2 choruses and 2 lines of verse 2.

5 pomodoros down, 5 to go!! Half way there!

4 pomodoros down! 6 to go!

3 pomodoros down 8 to go!

The internet keeps putting chocolate on my timeline Hot chocolate with a blooming marshmallow flower Melon covered in a chocolate shell Chocolate covered velvet cake Chocolate sculptures Parfait with chocolate sauce

Went outside for some fresh air. Found a giant four leaf clover. 🍀

This is horrific. It also disproportionately impacts on women who go back to retrain later in life- mostly after time at home engaging in care duties. Now, older women are forced into poverty by this cruel neoliberal system we're in.

I did it!! I did my physio and the gym.

How I feel about physio today:

My fireworks display, during the day.

Could all the musical theatre societies in Christchurch and beyond please try not to have auditions all in the same week at the same time in the future. This teacher is tiiiiiired!

I’m tiiiiiiiired. Day 4 of staying on track and I don’t have to do gym or physio today as today has been BIG ✅

I’m tired but I’m nearly at the end of my Very Busy Thursday and I have to keep going.

@cleverdilemma.bsky.social just booked to see homecoming!!! :-) yaaaaay
