Mmm
food pretty
I am frying onions and my apartment smells so gooooooood. It is making my air purifier very excited though.
I’ll never forget the time I batch cooked about 30 huge onions down into a spicy caramelised onion dish in my little dorm room in Japan (for a food festival) and probably fucked up the stove hood as a result. It was so good but the smell wasn’t so great the day after and it took about 3 full days to air the tiny place out completely.
Yikes that sounds like weapons grade onion warfare.
My most intense onion story was the time in my first apartment when I bought 3 onions and left them (forgot about them) in the back of the pantry for… who knows how long… and then one day suddenly the apartment STANK and I was hunting for the source of the smell. Turns out the onions sort of melted into a dark sludge which dripped down multiple shelves. I can’t remember how long that smell stuck around but it was a while. When I think about it I can still kind of smell it.
Oh yuck. Rotted onion is a particularly nasty smell.
Unfortunately Melbcat does have a bacterial UTI. She’s been prescribed banana scented antibiotics. Some cats like the taste but I had to chase her through the house to dose her when we got home. She’s had her Solensia too which should help slow the arthritis as well as manage pain. The monthly vet bills are gonna be steep…
And just now I found out that this new antibiotic is amoxicillin which she’s allergic to. I wish I’d noticed sooner 😬 Sorting it.
gentle hugs for you both
It’s so hard looking after pets because they don’t speak. If only they could tell us what is happening with them we could help them so much more and they wouldn’t get stressed either
I do wish she could talk. I’m usually very good at picking up issues almost immediately (called the cystitis before seeing the blood) but the non-bacterial inflammation ones are kind of the norm so I tried that approach first.
I got onto the vet in time and managed to emergency uber there to get a different medication before close. Somebaby just got fed a crushed up tablet in water and is not happy… 💊
Oo-oh @Duenan@aussie.zone you should have stuck with the Heat.
CEO - 16 Duenan - 13
Since its the final I think this is were the comp between you and I end (because I think we both want the the Heat to win). It has been an absolute pleasure playing my friend and there’s always next year. ☺
Haha I seem to have some bad luck picking of the last few games.
Been a good run the last month playing with you and been a good comp. Well done!
I’d say I’m slightly better at AFL tipping so there’s always that but that might be too complicated.
Anyway just for fun if day the Sixers will win the finals.
Haha
Annual performance bullshit completed. They still have no idea
that all the work was done by cat, paid with 🥖
He’s certainly attended enough meetings to deserve payment
hey
How are you doing there?
hanging in ( and thanks for staying up and doing the DT 🤗 )
and how are you?
No worries
I’m alright. My shoulder’s a bit sore but getting better.
I’ve been working in the yard for the last nine days. My poor, abused and reconstructed shoulder is painful but today is a rest day.
Two days of working in the Garage after this and then back to they Yard…
After a great deal of measuring and deliberation I have put through an order to Ikea. There will be many flat things arriving that I will have to turn into not flat things.
It should be a good improvement for my sewing storage area, which has had a mix of random cheap storage solutions including wire cubes that don’t really work that well. It’s an awkard spot to get things to fit - I think it was originally a wardrobe, which the previous owner tried to turn into a bar, by putting a bench across the middle and putting an arch in the wall at the front to match an arched doorway in the room. Which means there is a really deep cupboard at the bottom which is hard to reach anything in, and the archway on top partially blocks access to shelves. I have bought the deepest drawers I can find to fit in the bottom, plus a couple of narrow trolleys on wheels that can be pulled out to get access. And some wire shelves to go on the top section that are about half the width of the bench.
This is not my circus, not my monkeys,
But there I stand with a red nose,
Coloured hair and wacky clothes,
Juggling emails, calls, managers and techies,Being a phone monkey is taxing,
No reception, the clients are pissed,
So listen and do my best to assist,
But I’m left wanting, waning and waxing.I’m humming that to a Talking Heads tune
This panadiene med stuff is crap. Barely touches the pain, lasts only an hour or so and gives me a headache. There is also habituation, which is always a worry.
in the bin it goes and I’m back on aspirin and aggressive exercises
Diclofenac!
Gesundheit
Diclofenac
Thanks, I’ll talk to a doctor about it
What type of pain is it? Diclofenac is an anti-inflammatory, you can get it over the counter, the stronger version you just have to ask the pharmacist for, just ask for Voltaren Rapid 25. Its the only thing that helps with my stiff/sore back. Just make sure to take it with food :)
Sciatic piriform and L4 leg nerve compression.
I find the generic works better than Voltaren for me. That and silly amounts of walking. I’ve 2 bung lower discs and a neck that’s the wrong shape. As always YMMV
walking is the best , I try to walk at least 3 times a week
Another vote for Voltaren 25s. They’re magic.
Off for a little ride to the beach and a sunset chicken wrap.
Something about dins on the beach brings about infinite freedom
Which brings us to today’s rave choon.

🎶Do you really wanna ride? Sit back
Release your mind, relax
Do you wanna feel the walls collapse?
Focus on feeling
And you’ll find the freedom🎶
Update on the new meds: I actually feel great. It’s called Wellbutrin and apparently is used to quit smoking (bonus!) and for weight loss also (2nd bonus). I just feel kind of motivated? And have a lot more energy.
Early days yet, so we’ll see.
30 tomorrow? Ugh. I just want some stable weather… Dumb request, right?
Melbourne weather told me to tell you “request denied: get fucked”.
😂 Sounds about right.
Coffee was so good I’m pretty sure I made my O face. I definitely moaned. 10/10 has saved my day.
Swapped my pillows out for new ones and now my bed feels all wrong. Usually I’m a two stacker but the new ones are far to fluffy to stack but also not fluffy enough on their own. I fear a night of tossing and turning is afoot.
Proud of myself! I’ve been craving fish & chips, but it’s getting to the stage where it’s costing over $100 for the five of us! And sometimes it’s not that great. So after work I bought some fish from the local market. I bought school shark because it seemed like a good price and gave me sufficient quantity to have a couple of attempts if I messed up, but everyone loved it! It was a huge success! I’ve always been a bit scared to do it because I’m not 100% on what to do and was afraid I’d screw it up. So I looked up wikiHow, lol. My chips were tasty, the fish was delish and it cost me $20, which is a massive saving. This is a big thing for me!
awesome 😊
A candy/fry thermometer can be used to keep frying oil at heart friendly temperatures. Burned oil isn’t the best choice for health.
I’m pretty careful with my oil (I do homemade chicken nugs quite regularly) but a thermometer might be a good idea, take out the guesswork. Actually while browsing Bunnings I came across this and I quite like it
I use one like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/255613038690
