Trent Crimm is an excellent name for a dog.

Me: I haven’t read as many books this holiday, I’ve only read 2! I usually read like 3/4!

When you’re on holiday but need to finish the required reading and assignments for module one of your ECC certificate in the next two weeks.

Had a beautiful white wine in a restaurant the other night. Tonight we learned the rose is shit.

Unpopular opinion: this is one of the most boring movies I have ever watched.

Given myself a minimum to-do list for my VetsNow ECC cert today. So of course I’m sat on the sofa drinking coffee reading a book instead of tackling my webinars

We have all this great technology now … why are printers still so shit??

Turns out John Williams music is excellent “get your ass working” music. Top tracks for it so far: Indiana Jones, and Superman.
