Yayy!!! Happy cake day too 💜
Haha I had no idea lol! Even better! 💜💜
Anyone want an overbearing 7kg cat that refuses to listen, insists on licking your face while clawing your neck, flicks kitty litter everywhere, opens every cupboard that he can, must be involved in everything and is currently nuzzled my fingers while I try to type? Anyone? Please?
Of course I’m not being serious, but he’s really A LOT today!
I don’t know if he’s real. I need a pic.
Oh, he’s very real. And he will YEOWL to remind you that he’s real.
He’s beautiful and fluffy. I’ll take him. You’re a bitch 😂
He’s already packaged up in the box, he’s coming over! 📦 All jokes, we couldn’t part with him, the house would be too quiet - although less stinky! Ten minutes ago I sneezed and he farted out of shock. He’s certainly a character!
😂 that’s so funny.
so very beautiful
He’s a stunner for sure! He unfortunately really likes the taste of my face cream 😆
Oh I have one of those too. Licks it right off my face.
That white vest is there for burying one’s face into while repeatedly praising the beautiful, cute, very good owner of said vest, yes?
The vest is the Danger Zone! The earsies are Yes You ARE The Best Zone. And his cheekies!!
Ah, the danger vest, as it always is! Please give this baby a few cheek tickles and a good ear scratch from me 😺
Look at how fluffy he is!
Majestic as fuck, I tells ya!
He is stunning 😍
He absolutely is and he knows it!
He looooooves youuuu!!! Literally!
He’s gorgeous! I’ll put my hand up for babysitting duties, lol, I miss having a kitty around. You can just tape up that box and post him.
Your name has been registered in the Alfie Approal List, thank you!
Mickey for good luck and good vibes
This is now cat thread: add cat pics (and other animals) to boost luck by ✨purrty purrcent!✨
snuggled kitty says it's ok to stay under the doona if you are scared of Friday 13
Miss Meow agrees that sleeping in is the best way to deal with today
Friday 13th its bad luck to walk under a ladder, bad luck to see a black cat - so I think walking under a black cat would sorta kinda cancel out …
😅
Black cats up high unite!
That’s awesome! Roof cat gang.
Thank goodness we have Mickey. No wonder we have not had any incidents on this Friday the Thirteenth.
Yeah these guys are definitely rotund now
Winter insulation
Does that happen to people too? Asking for a friend…
Asking for Gibson?
Yes! Actually! More energy required to stay warm means higher energy intake!
Well, maybe those doughnut fries aren’t such a bad idea 🤔
I’ve done my own personal research on this, and yes, yes it does
I’ve peer reviewed your research and am able to reproduce the results.
Dog stepped in his shit whilst we were walking. But he’s clean now.
I checked on my dog this morning and he was laying one right near the letterbox. He’s got the whole yard and he chooses there. Fuck me.
He’s just making sure everyone knows.
It’s like he deliberately picks the longest bit of grass to wrap it around too.
I respect his hustle.
What a stunner!
Sweet boi!!😍
What a life. Full of treats and brushed to sleep.
On the sheet of royal down.
good day today, got lots done , made some stuff, less chaos, more skills,
I can see a tunnel far away, can’t see the light yet but I know it’s there
🙂
Get it, girl!
Come on 4pm. I’m already done for the day lol
No exciting plans tonight. Been too cold to go out. Just hassle the fluff goblin and maybe get pizza.
Was just saying to a colleague that although it’s been a short week it feels like it’s been 17 days long.
So apparently last night I screamed in my sleep. I didn’t know that I did, until I got a call from my dad saying that he couldn’t sleep and had to drive into regional Vic at 5am. Maybe it’s stress and anxiety, maybe the coffee I had in the morning, but I feel so guilty for waking everyone up when I didn’t know what was happening.
yo, just in case you weren’t aware that was an arsehole response from your father.
You hear a family member scream in the middle of the night you tend to go kicking in doors and if they sleepin’, you disrupt that bad dream stat
I’m tempted to start another account just so I can upvote this a second time.
I had to read the comment a few times before I could understand it, because a father hearing his daughter screaming in the night and not running in straight away to find out what is wrong and providing comfort just didn’t make sense to me. Actually berating her for it is just appalling behaviour.
@[email protected] the only question to ask here is WTF is wrong with your father, you have absolutely no reason to feel guilty.
This has happened about five times before, so they know not to run in.
The guilt is because I did something that meant no one could fall back asleep.
Yeah, what you do in your sleep isn’t really your fault. Don’t let this weigh too heavily on you. Consider therapy, or meditation or sleep health stuff because screaming from sleep is an issue that you’re responsible for but not at fault for, if that makes sense.
Thanks :)
I’ll do a meditation tonight and see how that goes. I think the screaming happens at peak stress levels. Will also check in with the GP when I go in next because I do wake up with a blocked nose quite often (probably from stomach sleeping, but could be something else).
Yo, wtf, you literally had no control over it! Sure it is frustrating for them - I get irrationally triggered by the sounds of snoring - but it is peak asshole behaviour to then make you feel guilty about it. It’s not even like there are known interventions (like with snoring). They should instead be concerned for you and supporting you to get to the root of it (which benefits you AND them). Please don’t feel guilty about this!!! e: as SaneMartigan says, you can be responsible for it but not be guilty. Taking ownership absolutely does mean recognising what things are out of your control and if your family just expects you to magically investigate every avenue and work it out (without even being concerned for you, wtf) that is really cold.
Lol you didn’t do it on purpose, that’s the point. If you stayed up until 3am and screamed then I could see how you’d be to blame. But you were asleep, friend, you can’t control what happens when you’re asleep.
You don’t need to do anything or apologise, I get ya dad is mad but like, you don’t need to berated for this, and you don’t need to shoulder the blame!
Edit to add: your dad is acting like a nob, so please try not to take what he says to heart 💜
Thanks, I think he was just tired and the emotional regulation went brrr.
I don’t think you should feel guilty about it at all.
It’s something you can’t help and you’re never awake to it and your family already knows about it.
Yep, I agree.
so many hugs, there must be something awful on your mind to have you scream in your sleep .
I’m sorry your family responded as they did.
In my view the fact this is the fifth time means it’s even more concerning, not less. Maybe talk to your psych about it.
wooo last few feet of the path beaten into submission. That’s over half a metric ton (literally, 600kg) road base compacted by hand. Hopefully sunday’s rain is rich and fulsome, I’ll see if there’s any problems or dishes on the new part, correct, then SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND for my pavers
That’s impressive.
Went to bed in a thin thermal top, this was a good idea, looking at the cold …
I’ve been taking melatonin these days to counter the lingering effects of the coffee and small amount of stimulant meds I’m back to taking. My dreams are not as clearly remembered as in the past but they seem to involve family a lot more, and combine them in very very weird ways…
Still really behind on writing although I powered through a heap of readings in one area yesterday. Read all that I really need to. Now there’s just one more major area, and one minor area… And then I need to start working on slides and shut. Urgh. Looks like I won’t be working much next week.
Fuck it. It’s beer o’clock! Cheers to all those who are celebrating something this week and to the DT cake day recipients. 🍺

Cheers! I scored some leftover Red Rooster from work lunch (two small tubs worth of chicken!) and am homeward bound for beer 🍻🍗
You’re a WINNER 🍺
Winner winner, chicken… luncher!
Winner, winner, a free fucking dinner 🎉
I’m celebrating work being finally over for the week and that I have nothing on for the weekend. OH has been told if he wants to socialise with people, to do it elsewhere (he’s fine with that, I’m not kicking him out unwillingly)
Chill. Relax. Enjoy your night and weekend 👍
Whilst I do enjoy a good drive in the countryside, in the dark trying to get home from work is not really the time. I think the GPS was trying to send me the long way around to avoid some traffic, but driving back country roads you don’t know in the dark is not fun.
In good news though I had many packages when I got home, including the lost Bunnings parcel that has been spending the last week touring the state. Miss Meow has some new steps, which arrived with a bit of damage but seem to be holding together ok, and she also has a new mat to go in front of the litter trays to help contain her wild litter flinging ways.
I also have a couple of rugs which look fairly lightweight but should be decent enough for occasional use in the garage, a stand to put the toaster oven on, a rolling stand for my computer cpu, and new rollerblade style castors for my office chair. I just need to figure out how to get the old ones off.
And also a set of coasters I threw in as a last minute impulse buy and actually look pretty decent - each one has a similar but different pattern.
Those coasters look pretty fancy. Almost Lord of the Rings like.
Tree of life
very pretty 🙂
Yggdrasil.
oops, too much socialising at work and not enough work being done.
Come on motivation!
Nothing got done today. Melbcat and I are being slugs
you got rest, recuperation and love done. 🙂🙂🙂
Those days are necessary, no matter how often they’re needed.
