👋

Not a bad app promo from KFC. Haven’t had it in ages so there’s lunch sorted!

A fluffy cat lying down on her back on bricks outside with the paws in the air.

🤗🤗 here’s my 18 year old Sybil enjoying the warm day yesterday.

Good morning!

That’s certainly an interesting blurb Google has hallucinated for my Mastodon profile.

I mean, I love The West Wing but I’m pretty sure I wasn’t a character 🤣🤣

For years now, “Groundhog Day” has appeared in my list of purchased movies twice. I have no idea why, but it’s the only movie that does this and I find it exceedingly amusing.

Last year I broke a 25 year tradition and watched Hocus Pocus 2. I was terribly disappointed.

This year we’re back to the original.

A 17 year old female cat sitting outside in the dirt. The sky is cloudy and the grass is damp due to the rain. It’s windy.

It’s close enough to the time where if Sybil comes in she stays in for the night. As such she’s going to spend every last moment outside even if it means sitting in the wind and rain. Hopefully she realises what a mistake that was when she’s notices the heating is on inside.

Living in a walkable neighbourhood. I don’t understand why people are so against this. It’s been a month since I’ve been in a car.

Happy 50th Birthday to the Sydney Opera House - here's a couple of snaps I've taken over the years.

A wall mounted air quality monitor showing PM 2.5 @ 1, and CO2 @ 476.

I work from home these days but my old office had them including in every meeting room. It was definitely reassuring.

Moving out of a city CBD apartment into the mountains just over a year ago has done far more for my health though!

Cat sleeping

A calico cat on her back sleeping outside on pavers. There’s grass and sun.

Sybil is definitely taking advantage of the glorious day outside.

A blue tongue skink enjoying the sun on some rocks

Bluey is definitely enjoying the warmer days and sunshine in my backyard!

I wonder what she’s contemplating while on my lap.

What a perfect winter morning for a stroll!

I prefer spring to be honest (which isn't far away now - plants are flowering already!). It gets up to 47c here in summer which is awful.

Definitely not summer where I live in Australia this morning!

We did have a few 21-24 degree days last week though which were glorious. The cat was very pleased and spent all day outside sleeping in the sun.

My 17 year old Sybil is looking super stressed today!

Enjoying a tasty libation while I wrap up the week

Haha. I completely forgot about Façade!

They were great. I'm still friends (IRL) with a few of the people I met at tweet ups around 2008/2009! (and I actually joined Twitter at a BarCamp conf in 2008).

Having an Apple Mouse enforced afternoon break.

I have LORD and LORD2!

Went full retro last night and dialed into a BBS via 2600.network from Australia to the USA.

Given the “phone line” is an analogue port on my NEC PBX and external lines are SIP trunks these days I didn’t expect it to work - but it did at 24000bps!

Another social network. Let's see if I last longer on here than I did on Threads! :)
