    Today has been awful. Which is pretty rare for me to say honestly.

    I want to go back to bed and not wake up until tomorrow.

      Could you be coming down with a plain old fashioned cold? That can really stuff up all the other things, particularly if you haven’t had one for a while.

        Could very well be. I’ve got a pizza in the oven. Time for a bath, some food and reading in bed till I pass out.

    Happy Gilmore 2. It was not good but I did enjoy it.

    I’ve made some progress on sorting my sewing room. Unfortunately the shelves I was hoping to use inside the cupboard won’t work - the shelves are the right size, but once assembled I won’t have room to manoeuvre them in. I have a couple more shelves to assemble and can then start putting more things away.

    I’m behind where I would like to be, but I think I can get all the boxes cleared from the lounge room and tidy up the worst of the empty box collection before the rental inspection tomorrow. It is nice having the lounge room more clear and open again, but I need to move all the furniture now that I’m not having to accomodate a wall of boxes.

      Not the kind of cupboard you can take the doors off of?

      source
      • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        No, it’s a built in and the framing for the doors reduces the size of the opening slightly. Plus they have gone for the cheapest possible wardrobe insert, which is a single shelf with hanging rail below it, and it has a divider panel in the middle to provide support to the shelf which also reduces the options for what you can put in there.

    Why does sitting on a bus for an hour make me so exhausted? Is it the air? Or would I have been exhausted anyway?

    Want to get away with the wife for a few days, not that familiar with the outskirts of Melbourne. Anyone know any good spots where mushrooms might still be in season? Is mount Dandenong any good for that?

      I hear a random Asian grocer in mountglenwaverley has some delicious wild mushrooms!

      Look up Trentham and Mount Macedon. It’s a bit late in the season for those kind of mushrooms, but you might get lucky. Nice bushwalking though.

      There’s a little place called Woolworths. Heaps to choose from. Prices are variable.

    Sewing machine has been located. Exactly where I thought it should be, in a place I had looked multiple times. It was in a bag and I thought it was something else but didn’t open to check.

    It worked in a way. It’ll take another week or 2 to break out of the habit of waking up, but I fell immediately back to sleep when I did wake up.

    Success.

    I have somehow managed to lose a sewing machine. I know it is here somewhere, but I’m a bit perplexed about where given I brought it up seperately and put it in the sewing room myself.

      What’s a guilty pleasure song?

      source
      • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        A song by an artist whom you

        • don’t agree with their morals/actions
        • don’t like any other song they’ve released
        • in a genre that you might not listen to a lot

        That’s just my own definition, really, and the song can meet all or just one of those points. I don’t like Nicki as a person, she’s awful, and I don’t like her other songs. I do listen to the genre though.

        I mean, I love Anaconda so much I can sing it off by heart 😂

    Movie review

    The Defiant Ones with Tony Curtis and Sidney Poitier

    It’s been a very long time since I last watched this Stanley Kramer movie ( I recommend all Kramer movies ) .

    I grew up watching post wwii social justice movies, now this comes across to me as a bit too simplistic and maybe we don’t need such story telling about racism and bigotry any more

    but then maga and russia and palestine, so maybe we need it just as much as we ever did

    it’s that realism style, few beautiful landscape shots, just people against a gritty background, the beauty is in the developing relationship between the two main characters

    tv review

    Justice on Trial. J Judith Sheindlin re-enacts and editorialises some famous and some not so famous court cases that question the morality of the justice system.

    Not a bad show if you like that sort of thing.
