  1. What’s a Fread?

    Google says it’s to do with computer coding…

  2. Got paid today which is always welcome, and a day off for a long weekend which is very nice as well

  3. GIGANTIC housework list today, so currently not working and eating a cheese twist

  4. Friday, the sun is out and the temperature is predicted to get to 26C today after a lot of rain yesterday, so I suspect it may get a little humid.

    Aside from that, happy payday to those who get paid today, may your takeaway tonight be delicious.

    I have now submitted the paperwork for my new role as ambassador, so I hope it’ll all be confirmed soon and I can add that title to my CV.

  5. It’s pay day my dudes!

    After not having a pay day since March, it’s fucking refreshing to see my account out of overdraft.

  6. Had a bit of a shitey day yesterday and had a bit of a moan on the late thread last night. Just want to thank everyone that reached out, I know I’m just some random, nameless pleb but I appreciated it!

    Eventually got some sleep and although my tooth is still fucked, I’m not as shaken up as I was last night. It also answered a lingering question relating to a snack, I couldn’t decide if I liked it or not so given this was the thing that ended up chipping my tooth I’ve decided I do not like it.

  7. Start my new job today! Might only be for a couple of hours or so, but it felt so good to hit ‘Report a change of circumstance’ button in my UC account a few minutes ago.

  8. I’ve woken up with a sore ankle. 

    Gonna see how it is as I get up and move about but I can do without this right now. 

  9. Payday, woohoo. Had a bit of money left over so I might have to treat myself to something.

    Going to spend an hour or two giving the house a bit of a clean, and then I’m having a small operation this afternoon.

  10. I need to give ID now to look at combatfootage and Ukraine war subs.

    What the heck.

  12. Oh dear god. Going out last night was a poor idea. I feel like death. My head is actually throbbing.

    We got home 4 hours ago. I’m covered in what I am assuming are midge bites somehow after a detour on the way home.

    How on earth did I used to do this and go to uni/work at this time without a problem?

  13. I’ll be taking my shared dog back to his other Mum today after his first stay in my new home, visiting a good friend en route. But going for a good walk first.

  14. I’m pretty sure I haven’t pooped since Monday, yet I don’t feel at all constipated. Think I’m gonna have to take some lactulose this morning

  15. I’m going to Leicester to watch the Fantastic Four today. So that should be fun.

    My local cinema has closed so I have to go to another town or city to watch any new films I’m interested in. I think tickets themselves are actually cheaper but I have to pay for public transport to get there and I usually take the opportunity to browse the shops while I’m there too. So it ends up being quite an expensive day out for me.

  16. I don’t feel like I’ve been sleeping properly this week. I’ve been going to bed at about 10:00 or 10:30 every night but I’ve been waking up at 3 or 4 AM and then struggling to get back to sleep until my alarm goes off at 7 AM. I‘ve not been lying awake for the whole time but I don’t feel like I have been asleep for the whole time either. It’s weird.

    I know it is definitely not because it has been too hot (although that would cause more problems at the start rather than at the end)

    Maybe my brain is too active?

  17. I’ve run out of regular milk and have switched over to the emergency backup UHT milk. My coffee tastes like I’m on holiday in Spain. Not complaining.

  18. I’ve now woken up after a terrible night sleep since I’m in a tent, on awkward ground at Bug Jam, Santa Pod and our camping neighbors were up until 5am doing lines of ketamine shouting to speak with each other.

    Oh well, time to grab a cider and enjoy the hell out of this weekend as much as possible! Certainly beats sitting at my desk working that’s for sure.

  19. I’m off today, and so is my boyfriend. We’re heading out for lunch (hopefully dodging the Tramlines traffic…), then attempting to make raspberry and dark chocolate brownies, plus ice cream and caramel nests for dessert.

    It might turn into absolute chaos, but with any luck, there’ll be something edible and sugary for us to enjoy at the end.

    After that, we’re planning a walk along the valley river trail to try and balance out the sugar overload.
