Sounds good. I enjoyed the forensic psychology module at uni, don't know how similar that is to criminology.

I hate staying in bed when I'm awake.

What are you all doing today? It's so windy here. I went to the chemist and got blown in all directions.

I'm not too good but that's my usual at the moment. How are you Beckie and Tamo?

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 01:17 PM

I think it's similar lindsay

I can't stay in bed while awake either!

It is windy today. Walking over the bridge took my breath away!

Sorry you're not feeling good lindsay . I wish I could help <3

I'm ok i think

one_step_closer 19-02-2021 03:34 PM

I hope you are ok and you can be more than ok soon.

It looks like the wind has blown down part of the fence that separates me and my neighbours. Hopefully my neighbour will fix it because he's always fixing something.

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 03:40 PM

Thanks lindsay

Oh no! That's annoying
Fingers crossed he'll fix it

Have you been up to much today?

one_step_closer 19-02-2021 03:45 PM

Mostly reading and internetting and watching Schitts Creek.

What about you?

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 04:01 PM

Sounds good

Not a lot. Went to asda. Went for a walk. Watching some tv.

nonperson 19-02-2021 06:12 PM

Evening everyone.

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 06:13 PM

Hellloooo np!
How are you?

nonperson 19-02-2021 06:19 PM

I totally read that helloooo in the voice of Mrs Doubtfire!




I'm ok, feel a bit headachey and glum but at least it is the weekend now.

How're you?

one_step_closer 19-02-2021 06:26 PM

I love Mrs Doubtfire.

Is there anything that will help your headache and glumness NP? I hope your weekend is a good one.

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 06:28 PM

Good because I meant it in a Mrs Doubtfire voice!

Yay weekend! Hopefully you can have a rest now and feel a bit better

I am inexplicable!

nonperson 19-02-2021 06:34 PM

Hey Lindsay. I also love Mrs Doubtfire. =D

I think maybe I've not had enough liquids today so I've just had some squash and pre-dinner biscuits so hopefully that will help with the headache at least. Not sure what's going on with the glumness. Sleep and rest at the weekend might help but also that's empty time to fill and that's not always good. I dunno!

You certainly are inexplicable, Beckie. =P I hope you mean it in an ok way though.

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 06:47 PM

Hopefully that will help then.
Yeah empty time isn't always great.
Have you got anything to do at all?
It's probably a bit cold for gardening but maybe some tidying? I know It's not fun but might take up some time.

Haha! Thanks. I think! :p
Not really but I'll live!

nonperson 19-02-2021 07:15 PM

There's plenty of things I could be doing, tidying the house, tidying the garden but it's all so hard to do do at a weekend. And food shop of course. I'll try to get some indoor tidying done at least.

And yes it was meant as a compliment/joke sort of thing. =P

Hmm, yes please keep living. =/

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 07:18 PM

That would be a good goal to have

Good! Thank you then! :-D

I shall try!

nonperson 19-02-2021 07:33 PM

Are you seeing Jasmine tomorrow?

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 07:37 PM

Yes :)

nonperson 19-02-2021 08:00 PM

Ah that should be nice then. =)

Cacoethes 19-02-2021 08:32 PM

Yeah it will :)

What have you been up to this week np?

not_so_insig 19-02-2021 09:24 PM

Hello all. It's my birthday on Monday (the big 4-0) so Lorraine kindly sent me a present. It arrived today.

nonperson 19-02-2021 11:22 PM

Just work, Beckie. Nothing too exciting =/

That's nice of her, Dawn.

nonperson 20-02-2021 09:21 AM

Morning everyone. <3

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 10:27 AM

Morning np!
How are you?

nonperson 20-02-2021 11:17 AM

Hey Beckie.

I'm alright-ish. You?

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 11:33 AM

Same really.
But I'm on my way to see Jasmine so that will be good :)

Have you found anything to do today?

nonperson 20-02-2021 11:41 AM

I'm sure that will cheer you up. =)

Laundry and cleaning the carpets upstairs. So exciting. =/

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 11:45 AM

Yes it will :)

Fun times! Good luck with it all!

nonperson 20-02-2021 11:52 AM

What will you do when you get there?

Thanks. Might need luck, heh.

tamobhuuta 20-02-2021 11:57 AM

Hi everyone. I need a shower later, please encourage me!

nonperson 20-02-2021 12:02 PM

Hey Tamo. What usually helps you get it over and done with quickly? Maybe a reward afterwards - tea? =)

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 12:28 PM

No idea! Hopefully something low key because I'm tired!

You can do it np! *sends encouragement*

And encouragement to you too tamo!

one_step_closer 20-02-2021 12:51 PM

Morning, almost afternoon. You can all do ALL the things, I know you can!

tamobhuuta 20-02-2021 02:12 PM

I had a shower :) I feel clean.

not_so_insig 20-02-2021 02:30 PM

Afternoon all. A new cat toy came through the post today so I have been playing with the kitties.

nonperson 20-02-2021 03:29 PM

Well done Tamo. You must have done it right! ;-)

Sounds fun, Dawn.

not_so_insig 20-02-2021 04:02 PM

They enjoyed their play session. Even my male played with it and in general he's not a very playful cat.

tamobhuuta 20-02-2021 04:04 PM

Sometimes our mog will chase dead leaves for ages.

nonperson 20-02-2021 05:32 PM

It's funny what they'll play with sometimes. I wish mine chose to play with toys over live animals though. =/

one_step_closer 20-02-2021 06:21 PM

Well done Tamo :thumbup:

My two cats don't really play much. They do like the Kong Kikeroo thing at times though.

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 06:46 PM

Hey guys!

nonperson 20-02-2021 07:08 PM

My cat's got one of those kickeroos too, he plays with it sometimes.

Hey Beckie. Are you home?

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 07:16 PM

I am indeed!

How's everyone's days been?

nonperson 20-02-2021 07:18 PM

Average. But my window blind has just broken so it just got worse. >.<

How's yours been?

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 07:22 PM

Oh no! That's not good :/

Good thanks

nonperson 20-02-2021 07:32 PM

One of the strings is frayed so it won't go up and down properly. And it gave up opening and closing a while ago so I guess I'll be in darkness until I fix it. =P

Was it a low energy sort of day?

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 07:52 PM

Is it easily fixable?

Yeah we just chilled and played some mario kart and did some bedroom makeover tidying preparation!

nonperson 20-02-2021 08:06 PM

Well, it's fixable, I'm not sure how easy it will be. Apparently I can use a lighter to join together the old and new strings where it's frayed. o.O And replacement tilt mechanisms seem to be a thing too so I shall look into that.

Ooh, bedroom makeover sounds exciting.

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 08:17 PM

Fingers crossed it's an easy thing to do!

Yep! She has new paint and bedroom furniture.
The pink was babyish apparently

nonperson 20-02-2021 09:41 PM

Back from food shop. *thumbs up*

What adult colour has she chosen then? =)

Cacoethes 20-02-2021 09:45 PM

Yaaay! Well done!

It's kind of a bluey purple. It's nice!
