    My cat had her annual check up today. I’ve had her for just on a year now. She has taken a long time to warm up and relax. Unfortunately today I think she lost a bit of trust in me. She saw the cage and just knew what was coming. It was an experience getting her in the cage.

    And the hisses she gave the vet during a clip of her nails were impressive! This was after the vaccination and general checkup of spine, joints, eyes, ears and belly so I guess she just had had enough. Totally understand.

    So after some alone time she will now come to me for scritches but not close enough where I could pick her up. And her side eye game is impressive.

    Ah well… Three steps forward; 1 step back. I’ll take it. Image This is Mavis.

        It’s fair to say he’s not the smartest, but he’s far from dumb. He is very pretty though.
        The black one is the smartest cat I’ve ever known.

      Can I get the ginger’s floofy beauty with the velvet black personality. But as CEO says it’s unfair to choose.

      Hhmmm, purpose. Ginger would make a better duster, is there enough of psycho for a pair of evening gloves?

      source
      • Eagle@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Ginger contributes to the dust more than any other animal I’ve ever known! And little miss is bigger than she appears, but her composition is satin over steel.

    Zucchini is a really underrated vegetable. So fast to cook, so versatile, so flavoursome. And pretty. Just straight up sliced and sauteed in olive oil with some onions and oregano = 👌🏽

    I acknowledge the reality is completely different when you’re drowning in a glut of garden zucchini.

    source
    • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I think one of the most delicious things I’ve tasted was after straining a heap of them in bulk for zucchini slice. Just drank it as is.

      Also tempura zuccs get a solid nod from me.

    • melbourne_wanderer@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I eat, on average, a zucchini a day. Love 'em.

      source

      Who’s underrating the zucchini? Gimme names. Best veg out there.

      Mine aren’t giving a glut :( I think the pots are too small, weather too hot and not enough fertiliser

      you can also pickle it a treat. Comes out a bit sweeter than cucumber, delicious in burgers

      source
      • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Now cucumber is a fake vegetable I could happily do without for the rest of my life.

    I survived the crack head party next door last night.

    People often ridiculed me for having so much tape… They could well be wrong.

    The boardies will live on I have high hopes for this. You can’t have 4 different tapes and just give up on sunset swims.

    Utilising the utmost of self control to not watch today’s episode of Severence until after I get back from dinner out with some friends/work contacts this evening.

    Because if I watched it earlier I’d just be thinking about the episode all evening.

    Client with 100+ day overdue invoice finally paid me. Chasing him to pay was a pain in the ass but we finally got there. The ugly side of running a business - getting slimy people to pay me. Soon I’ll be able to take upfront payments and this person will need to pay everything upfront for future services. Burn me once, you don’t get a second chance.

    Now one more person with 100 day overdue invoice to pay me, also a slimy person. I’ve been lucky that most people I do work for actually respect and value what I do and pay me on time. I hate being a debt collector.

    Got home in 23 mins compared to my morning drive which was almost 10.

    Some really stupid drivers out there.

    One was changing lanes without signalling and then there was a new one.

    Someone signalling to change lanes but went in the opposite lane to what they were indicating. That one was particularly dangerous.

    Anyway survived the drive home.
