    That's probably a sign that the smoke alarm isn't working.

    I just got an email from the FBI telling me they are awarding me 15 million dollars.
    I'm so excited beyond words.. All I have to do is give them all my personal details and bam I have 15 mils in my bank account.
    Sorry losers, you won't see me for dust here again. I'll be thinking of you sad folks next week from my private island inthe Caribbean.

    :D

    Yep, there's a few a day. Even at the peak of lockdown I know there was at least 4 flights a week from Manchester to Dublin.

    Cheese is far too addictive, completely impossible to exercise restraint with. Tasty yellow crack.

    I’m thinking 5:30am and start to play some Cradle of filth, Shinedown, Alterbridge, Velvet Revolver and then onto more death metal :D Oh there poor little hangover heads :D

    Shinedown and Alter Bridge? I like your style Auto!

    Had two big burgers, regretting that decision, too full now. The human body is a mess, we need a fuel gauge.

    Grass cut and the back garden has been stood down due to the cool and damp weather ahead. So feckin depressing packing everything away because you don't know how much wind and rain will come. I spent so many summers buying cool garden stuff and not watching the weather forecast. All ruined. I bought a really good Gazebo one summer and an elderly neighbour had a beer in it with me the night I put it up.

    "A piece of advice Son. Make sure to put your address on the roof of this thing."

    He was right.

    Sitting at the seafront beside Blackrock Park, looking out onto Dublin Bay and feeling chilled, but pensive.

    We spent the night in my OH's place after dropping stuff off at St. Vincent's hospital for his mother. She is now 92 (he's 12 years older than me ;)) and is a real trooper. :)

    Good news from the initial tests - looks like it might be an internal tear in her oesophagus from something she ate. Apparently not uncommon in the very elderly. More tests scheduled for tomorrow and hopefully she'll be out afterwards.

    Weather starting to change. We've had a great run in fairness. At this stage some rain is probably needed.

    Looking at the news and seeing Trump's bible stunt... Nickelodeon going off air for 9 mins for human rights.....
    You have to wonder...
    if nobody in power is going to make Trump step down....it's only a matter of time before someone takes it into their own hands


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,549 ✭✭✭✭Leg End Reject


    Hope she makes a full recovery, Jupiter.

    I'm just in after enjoying the cool breeze, I went shopping earlier and I thought I was going to pass out with the heat. My modification request is inbuilt air conditioner. A good scrub in the shower will be required!

    *I do shower every day*

    Perched on the couch. Good old Sufjan is the soundtrack. Mrs. C has cooked rasher and fried egg sandwiches. The gorge continues. :D one more day of holidays tomorrow and then the road to rediscovering my healthy self begins. *in the zone face* :pac:

    I watched a programme about Mexican conjoined twins last night, they're living
    in the USA since they were very young and cannot return home in case they don't get back in,so sad for their parents who haven't seen their families in 17 years. They are 2 lovely girls and great craic ,very resilient, one of them learned to drive and passed her test,so strange to see her driving and her sister joined to her ,makes you think how difficult life can be for some people.

    I'm couchside, feeling pissed off,no walk yesterday or today and there's a message from my Fitbit but I'm refusing to look at it,refusing to look at my online banking also, I'm now a pioneer, the weather has changed very quickly, can feel the black dog approaching

    Reality TV wouldn't stir any emotion in me whatsoever, it seems like it's trying so hard to manipulate a response that it ends up feeling less authentic than some fiction. But I suppose fictional media has a lot to work with to make the story hit the right notes whereas reality shows are stuck with whatever you can make of the footage. I could be talking out of my arse though, I don't understand the world around me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    You all infected me.

    Im having a what do you call it wobbler. Existential crisis, maybe?


    Decided O.H is too good for me. Was quite a heavy day in fairness. Got to me. Couldnt actually form a thought this evening.


    He said we'll talk tomorrow, be fine tomorrow :)


    In the garden. Its slightly chilly! Pretty moon :) about three quarters full.
