Got about 2 drops :(

BoM only forecasted 1mm for down here so can't get too upset.

I got lucky, 20 or so mins of steady rain but my plants need much more.

Breeze is amazing, also probably a lie

Got the headphones in the office now and they've been great. I can leave them plugged in to work straight with the laptop or have them connected to the laptop and my phone wirelessly. I'm going to get some cheap plastic cables so I don't feel it rubbing against my shirt, the only downside to wires

Doing a little DIY project (currently at the what-have-I-done panic stage) and noticed the little pack of sandpaper I have from a "variety" shop is priced at $1.50. Must have bought it in the 80s for it to have been that price.

I’ve been feeling really sick but the mini pumpkins have sat in their paper cups so long that I sucked it up and planted them out.

Hopefully they do okay

I've figured out how to stop the migraines. I feel so fucking stupid lol

It's my posture. For some reason, unless I have good posture, especially when sitting down, my right shoulder hikes up a lot, which starts the chain reaction.

Sigh. I lost friends because they couldn't understand how a "headache" could be that crippling. And all the money on physio. Thousands and thousands of dollars.

The cats have voluntarily left uneaten biscuits from dinner. Can't be feeling well, furcoats in the heat and all.
