Fuck’s sake. I really did a number on the hip yesterday. There will be Palexia.

Got out ingredients for a creamy tuna pasta dish. Ended up making Nigella’s Marmite pasta instead. I really want a nice mac n cheese or lasagna. Oh well.

Yes!

A shop mannequin 🤣

Oh no. More of Nicole Kidman’s winkelpop face?

Aw. 🫶🏻💅🏻

Seeing as no one will say it, Terry! Free feet on the internet? Hope you’ve got them behind a paywall on another site.

OK.

Absolutely yes!

Tempting the weather gods again by doing laundry.

Next week’s only three working days. Means I’ve got to get my 💩 together this week.

VINTAGEFANTASY NEWS BREAKING NEWS! SAGITTARIUS BLUNT OR JUST A C*NT?

Willing to make them.

Apparently I’ve also inspired the physio to set up a book to knit squares to be made into blankets. And of course now I will knit squares they can use as a guide.

And then I got out of my car and twisted my hip like it’s a Barbie doll’s (felt like 360, obviously not, but enough to make it click again). FFS.

Communication between my brain and leg is still a bit fucked. I literally have conversations with it when I need to lift it. And I still need to help it every now and then. Like positioning it on the clutch when I first get behind the wheel.

Physio is very pleased with progress. I need to massage the scar. The thing that’s giving me the ick.
Also, I need to do at least 3km per week (walking). I just need to remind myself that I’m not doing time trails and it will take as long as it takes.

I’ve had this one since 2018. Been tempted to replace it with an Oura ring, but there aren’t any funds for it at the moment.

I have not. Will not spend money on that. But keen to watch The Bride and Project Hail Mary if they’re still in cinemas. Maybe next weekend. And going to a press screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2 a week from Tuesday.

If anyone’s on Goodreads and want to connect, this is me.

Am I wrong though?

I don’t have a comprehensive list of TBRs. But I have an extensive collection of audiobooks that take up most of a 3TB drive. I really should delete as I read.

No. Stop it. You’re not missing anything. They’re all rich and miserable. The end.

Life’s too short to read bad books. And you’re on a tedious one. I say shelve it and move on to the next one.

WTF is wrong with this thing?

I do audiobooks while I knit/do the dishes/cook, etc.

Evens me.

Halfway to my reading goal for the year. 38 books ahead of schedule.
