Aussie, tree-changer, work in tech. Love reading, sci-fi, my border collies and my hubby.

Live in Grampians / Gariwerd Victoria.

He/him/hey you
Looks like Darwin likes the new hose nozzle.

Makes me wonder how the doggie daycare place went hosing out their yard. I remember picking the boys up one time and the staff commented how much they loved it. I should probably have given them advanced warning.

This one?

Drink only a little at a time, around as much as you'll fit in a shot glass. I love it, but it's pretty expensive.

Good morning from paradise.

This is today's effort in exhausting the boys so they don't harass me to play when the heat kicks in.

Life is simply miserable for these two.

Early morning dip at Lake Fyans ahead of a 40℃ day.

I have the TV on in the background for things like Bewitched. This shit came on and I just heard "in my day ..."

Thankfully there's some sensible commentary mixed in, but omg it's exhausting to listen to.

Melbourne day trip - didn't ride it, but got to walk through Metro tunnel station from City Square to Flinders. Still shiny and at least 3/4 of the folks in there were sticky braking like me.

Wednesday commencement cancelled until lunchtime.

Rare that Darwin comes into the bedroom, but even he can't be bothered dealing with the wind and rain. Charlie will tolerate the intrusion, but won't give up that cushion in a hurry.

@wolfierankin.bsky.social ... After you mentioned it recently I think of you every time i hear this!

@thegrumpypoof.bsky.social

Why did this make me think of you?

Maybe not mean, just ignorant?

Around 18 months so I lost my licence for speeding.

Huge inconvenience and I was ashamed & embarrassed.

The upside is that I was forced to buy this bike trailer as ALL my mail goes to the PO and I'm the only one who can pick up during business hours.

Still using it for even stupidly heavy mail :)

Exhibits A through D.

Boys and I had a bath. My itches are relieved and Charlie is only slightly dirtier than he was at the beginning.

Thanks, Coles, for alerting my husband to the treats I added to the order he'd built this morning. And I don't even have said treat to show for it.

Have felt flat most of the week, but budding brussels sprouts this morning is a good beginning to the weekend vibe

It has to be Sneaker Pimps Becoming X.

An amazing debut.

Probably a distant cousin to Darwin who is an avid recycler.

I watch Star Trek for the plot

Here's what I wrote down after finding a recipe online and trying it. Sous vide will be no different to an instant pot for this. The real key is precise temp, then vary the time.

When you crack it open you may have some uncooked residue come out, toss that aside then plop the egg on toast.

Same here!

Have to admit I'm disappointed, sounds like a wasted opportunity
