Nice thread Claire. Take care ... I’ve always favoured knowing things over having things, I didn’t really have a choice in the matter either while growing up.

Somewhere an Apple product owner is watching a feature they worked tirelessly on, now summarised as ‘etc.’ behind the latest emoji drop.

I told my friend I listened to something three times straight. He asked and how many times had I listened gay.

Today I received my first ever Take Down Notice. I wonder if every other recipient of one has had the same first reaction as I had, to tell the requestor to go “eff” themselves.

We had steak with salads for dinner. My youngest finished and wanted the extra steak, but I said only after he had some greens (garden salad). He protested, he already had greens - the mixed herbs I seasoned the steaks with. #kidlulz

I found some sidewalk chalk at the park, so I emblazoned the path with “WALK ON THIS SLAB IF YOU LOVE BRISBANE LIONS” - knowing that most users really dislike my team, and might detour onto the grass. I just don’t know how to police it though.

I do my grocery shopping at three different stores with vastly different layouts. Sadly my mind can remember only two. And I’m always at the other one.

It sounds quite poignant, “Some things are worth fighting for”. Until you realise, that by implication, many things are not.

This day just got a lot better. I found a half-eaten Mars bar in my work bag from a couple of weeks ago.

I can comply with the running discipline of any marathon training program, building stamina and endurance. But suggesting a good night’s sleep is such an unreasonable requirement.

I do all I can to save spiders I find in my house. The least they can do for me in return is eat the infuriating mosquitoes I hear buzzing around my bedroom in the dark!

My friend completed a 100km trail running race, but do I really need to comment on each of his posts on Strava, Instagram and Facebook? It’s quite tiring.

Are Pomeranians high-maintenance?
Well, she grew tired of rotisserie chicken so I had to first lay a foundation of grated cheese.

There are countless physiological improvements to cut your marathon running time. Right now my focus is finding a way to prevent slowing down from sweat getting in my eyes; and finding shorts that don’t ride up my crotch awkwardly.

Don’t tell me there’s no time to waste. Tell me how much time I have to enjoy.

I didn’t have “the zoomies”, I just saved it as the wrong activity type.

Quite a highlight today, learning the employee engagement survey could be reset and resubmitted, for those who did it before the shocking organisational changes were communicated.

Two guys on a trail asked me to tell their lady friends behind them to “hurry up” when i pass them. I did let them know I had a message, ‘The guys in front miss you and love you very much.’
It’s just a shame I’ll miss the debrief.

Easy Run, don’t go faster than 5 minutes per km. Do NOT go faster than 5 minutes! OK, I give up.

In a running event I always tie up my shoe laces well cause I don’t want to waste time fixing them during the race. In running events I never do a double-knot on my laces, just in case I might want to have a short rest.

Limiting my caffeine intake has meant green tea in place of my daily coffees. It’s fine, I like green tea. But it does kind of feel like just the foreplay.

Moths have butterflies. Toads have frogs. Just as men have ‘Man’s best friend’ to aspire to.
