    So there’s no heart damage which is great. Ecocardiogram shows no issues either.

    The results of the holter thing I wore that records my heartbeat for a day aren’t ready yet.

    This is the point where I go “yeah cool I’m fine”.

    And I’m going out tomorrow night to celebrate 🎉

        I think it was an interesting interpretation of the book. Not what I was expecting at all.

        What did you think?

    I need to find a better spot to hide the cat treats. The void has an impending Catnip Greenie problem, and has smashed a Lego set hunting them down.

      I love the imagery of a void just smashing through lego for treats. I’ll bet it was fun!

    Last night I asked YL if she would like to tart me up a bit. She did my make-up so nice and natural I was beaming. She even gave me eyebrows. It’s the little things, guys.

      Make sure you mention that when they go over the results as it will be a factor. Also you have been getting medical certs, right? They’ll cover your arse work-wise.

        I never connected with anyone when I went to school so the possibility of a reconnection isn’t on the table.

      Interesting question! Do I feel 48. I don’t know what what 48 is meant to feel like. I feel I’m at my peak now where I can concentrate on me and what I want going forward. Maybe I do come across as cocky but I don’t give a fuck. I prefer confident, strong and I’m gonna keep that as long as possible. 💪

      source
      • SpinMeAround@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I LOVE this. I don’t ever think you come across as cocky, but just confident and aware of who you are which I SOOOOO admire. I really respect your energy and spirit!! I genuinely hope you feel others to feel confident and strong and own exactly who they are because honestly, you inspire me. Thank you for being exactly who you are!!

      It varies. In some aspects I feel really old, in others I feel like I’m behind and others have out-adulted me.

      My watch says my fitness age is 33. At this point I think I’ve maybe accidentally upgraded the OS to something more supportive than accurate.

      Mentally, definitely not. I’m perpetually 25. Im waiting to act like a grown up.

      Physically, I’m doing ok because I’ve worked on my fitness in recent years. Still when I pull a muscle, it hurts harder and longer now.

      source
      • SpinMeAround@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I’ve gained a lot of weight but am aware of my limits and am working on them. No thanks to pulling a muscle getting out of bed but also know that to some extent it’s out of my power.

    My past self apparently programmed a secret message into my spreadsheet to alert me when the leave dates I want are open to apply for. I do not remember doing this at all, but when I opened it today there was a bright red “APPLY FOR LEAVE” message waiting for me. I am incredibly impressed with my ingenuity.

    Jesus, what a day. In the way home it turns out the rear tyre has been losing pressure independent of the collision, so the bike might be in better condition than first thought.

    Rode to the bike store to drop it off, then went to the nearest pub to meet the family. It was fucking closed for renovation. Ended up going out to where I do trivia for dinner because we couldn’t get confirmation anywhere else was open or not packed. It was just a big day.

    Got the insomnias so I’m playing some random horror game from itch.io. it’s actually pretty good, but it is a siren head game (siren head: resurrection by show_more) lol so it’s a monster we’re familiar with. Already got the monster to glitch out on stuff which is pretty funny, but it did lull me into a false sense of security with it’s behaviour and then changing it so I died ha.

    Lucky I’m a gamer and save heaps so no real progress lost. I’m fixin’ to fuck up old mate.

    Surprisingly no poppies have err… popped up this year in the ol’ opium patch. Was worried they’d take over again. Last year was like 4 consecutive green bins full of those fuckers. I see one, I’m pulling it out.

    I’d imagine that’d be at full tilt.

    Today we are cleaning downpipes again.

    Recently bought a 15m drain hose thing that attaches to the cheapo gerni thing. Did a few yesterday and the noise changed from ‘you need a laxative’ to ‘wtf did you eat last night gurgle’. I think that’s progress.

    That store return limit thing was niggling at me, so I ended up contacting the company’s customer service and indeed the store limit is a thing - but you can leave the items with the store and the store will then send HQ the details for the refund. (I did also mention that the lady didn’t get given that option at all). Hell no.

    Project Hail Mary

    I went in knowing the audio book very well

    and my brain will just not shut up, I sat there analysing dramatic structure and character etc

    and after a short while I understood enjoying this is like enjoying The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

    each version for different media is different, they aren’t just the all the same scenes

    but the story is the same 🙂

    the visualisations of many of the scenes was stunningly beautiful

    story was engrossing

    we left the cinema wanting more

    Woke up too early club checking in. Had a bad dream that woke me up. Also felt cold so have now put a blanket over the doona. Hopefully can snooze a bit more before morning. Think it’s time to swap to the winter doona next time I change the sheets.

    YL has started dog sitting. She is in hot demand. She makes me laugh “People pay me to house sit, eat their food, play with their cute puppies while I study. I can’t believe this”. I love this for her. She’s in her element.

    Mummy and Daddy love it when she’s out of the house. Would it be wrong to post dog pics of other people pets?

    I’m up to two packages currently waiting at my door for me to come home. I think it’s my new electric blanket and a soy milk maker, but I’m also expecting a Temu package including new watch bands/covers and random stuff.

    I had previously bought an electric banket on a pre-order with Appliances Online, but their delivery has apparently been delayed so I got a refund. I ended up buying a cheaper blanket instead to give me enough money left over for the soy milk maker. It’s not a brand I’ve ever seen before, so fingers crossed it’s ok.

    I am watching The King and I , last time I saw this was decades ago

    omg,

    this is a battle of the sexes story, which is always fun

    but the representations of culture are quite … embarrassing

    all I can think of is that’s not how royalty works and the accents and dances etc are 😬

    that she was a brave Victorian woman, of whom there were many

    and the king and court were very wise in anticipating and handling Western imperialism and influence

    4 hobbits, also I love how in the 40s and 50s so many movies were set in other countries and cultures, now we seem stuck in the West
