I had a fun early afternoon visiting and playing with my nephew. Now just chilling as small people are tiring!

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 04:52 PM

Aw sounds lovely!

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 05:25 PM

Don't go falling asleep in the middle of taekwondo, Beckie!

What age is your nephew, Jen? I'm glad you had fun. Definitely time to relax!

How are you getting on today, Tamo?

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 05:47 PM

Struggling with stuff in r/v still but sticking with logic. How are you?

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 06:16 PM

Keep going. Post if you want to talk through things. I'm not really sure how I am. Just got Crookshanks settled after his dinner. I don't know what's going on with him but he's been moaning at me all day.

long road 06-07-2023 06:20 PM

Nephew is 4. He is starting school in September!!!

Just lying down now before dinner. We are having salmon, potato wedges and veggies.

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 06:24 PM

Is he looking forward to it?

I hope you enjoy your dinner. I think I really should try salmon one day.

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 07:49 PM

Thanks osc. I'm glad today hasn't been too bad then? I hope Crookshanks is just having a moany day!

Salmon with chips and mayonnaise is yum (says the veggie!)

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 08:09 PM

I've had a mixed day.

How long have you been a veggie, Tamo?

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 08:27 PM

I came back from taekwondo then went to asda for ryvita thins because i had a craving. Lol

How are we all?

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 08:42 PM

I can't remember how long I've been veggie!

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 05:46 AM

Morning everyone!

long road 07-07-2023 09:46 AM

Morning!

I have been up since 9am. And have already put on a load of washing and put away some clean, dry washing.

tamobhuuta 07-07-2023 09:54 AM

Morning both. I got up at 9.15am, my usual time, but I want to go back to bed.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 09:54 AM

Well done!
I also have washing in!
And have been to aldi, which was horribly busy!

Hey tamo

Do either of you have much to do today?

tamobhuuta 07-07-2023 09:57 AM

I've got meds to pick up but I'm hoping I can palm that off on my dad. I don't really want to leave the house.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 10:01 AM

Fair enough.
It is a lovely day to be outside though!

long road 07-07-2023 10:59 AM

I have my routine things (going outside, physio etc.)

And then tonight I have roleplaying, maybe I will save the world this week or maybe it will take another week!!!

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 11:22 AM

Sounds good!

Oooh that's exciting!

I am bored af.

one_step_closer 07-07-2023 12:37 PM

Hey everyone. Sending good day vibes as usual.

Well done for what you've managed so far, Jen. I don't think I can deal with the drama of your role playing any more! I hope you can save the world soon! Is there a chance you might not be able to and we'll all just disappear???

Are you not feeling too good today, Tamo? I hope you can do some nice things.

Were you getting veggies at Aldi, Beckie? Or is that too obvious?! I hope you got some tasty things for you. I hate being bored! Have you got anything else on today?

The only thing I had to do today, apart from going to the chemist as usual, was wash my hair and that's been done. Might see if I can try and reply to a pen pal letter at some point. Have a new book to start too.

long road 07-07-2023 01:08 PM

I have now showered, made coffee and just finished drinking said coffee outside.


Even if I don't save the world (which I reckon we will although one or two of our characters might die heroically in the process) it's set 38,000 years in the future and is fictional. So we will all be fine here irl. Just a chance of the story me and my friends have been telling together ends sadly.

My commiserations that you are bored Beckie. Bring bored sucks.

Ooh new book? What kind of books it Lindsay?

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 02:03 PM

I was indeed getting veggies XD
A couple of bags were 30% off which is a win!

Ooh new book!

Hope you enjoy it jen!

Being bored does indeed suck.
At least I'm going out with glow beatz friends for a couple of drinks later.

There is a fly in my living room but it keeps disappearing!
Need to get it out because of the pigs!

one_step_closer 07-07-2023 02:07 PM

Jen, you are doing loads. Still feeling ok? Please don't let your character die heroically, I will be sad. Hope you have lots of fun though!

The book is Just A Regular Boy by Catherine Ryan Hyde. Dawn actually gifted it to me from my wish list.

30% off is a big win! I hope you enjoy your time with your friends. Any luck with the fly yet?

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 02:29 PM

Thanks!

I was pretty sure i got it to fly out of the living room window, but either the same one or another one has appeared. And now disappeared again...
I think it was being deliberately stupid, more stupid than your average fly!
Frustrating

tamobhuuta 07-07-2023 02:31 PM

Just feeling vulnerable osc. Wrapped in weighted blanket, watching casualty.

one_step_closer 07-07-2023 03:22 PM

Do flies even have a point in life?

Sorry you're feeling that way, Tamo. I hope the blanket and Casualty are helping at least a bit.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 03:29 PM

To piss everyone off probably

long road 07-07-2023 03:32 PM

I am feeling mostly ok have a bit of a headache and am perhaps a little tired. Might grab a nap to make sure I am in tip top shape for tonight in a minute.

tamobhuuta 07-07-2023 03:52 PM

Thanks osc.

Hope you're napping lr!

one_step_closer 07-07-2023 04:01 PM

Everyone look after yourselves.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 04:17 PM

Hope you manage to regain some energy jen!

You as well lindsay!

long road 07-07-2023 04:25 PM

Finally about to try and nap. I got distracted! See you all later xx

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 05:03 PM

Have a nice nap!

nonperson 07-07-2023 05:51 PM

Hello!

one_step_closer 07-07-2023 05:59 PM

Hi NP, how are you doing?

nonperson 07-07-2023 06:04 PM

I'm ok. Had a shitty sort of week (many ups and downs) and have been to a retirement do this this afternoon so am a little bit drunkish. =/

How're you?

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 06:42 PM

Hey np!
Always good to see you!
I swear i was going to tell you something/ask you a question the other day but was going to wait until you appeared in the thread. Now i can't remember for the life of me what it was XD

nonperson 07-07-2023 06:52 PM

I like questions! Try to remember =|

long road 07-07-2023 06:53 PM

I napped and feel super refreshed! Hooray!

Hey NP! Sorry to hear you had a shitty sort of week. Are you working this weekend or do you get some time to yourself?

nonperson 07-07-2023 06:55 PM

Yay for napping! =)

Hey Jen. It was a complicated sort of week. I'm not sure how I feel about it all.

But I do actually have a three day weekend now! Booked Monday off. And no plans for the next three days so plenty of time to myself.

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:03 PM

I feel like I need to nap... x.X

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 07:03 PM

I will try np!

Ooh 3 day weekend! Fabulous!

Glad you feel better jen!

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:08 PM

I dunno about "fabulous" but it's my first day off since April so it better be good.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 07:09 PM

Unrelated question.
I could rent out my parking space for about ?60 a month to commuters.
However, i have allowed a neighbour to park in my space for a good few years now.
The extra money would be a lifesaver tbh, but I'd feel like a dick for kicking them out of my space.

Also, why is the pound sign now being replaced with question marks???

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:12 PM

Start charging them?

I think with the state of the economy at the moment, if they gave it some rational thought, they shouldn't be annoyed. They might be of course but it wouldn't be justified!

I personally think that's a really good idea to get some extra money.

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:12 PM

?60...

Just testing the pound sign glitch there btw.

Edit: Aww, question mark 60.

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 07:21 PM

I never talk to them directly, my neighbour deals with everything, lol.
She'd be able to talk to them with no issue. I've actually mentioned it to her before and she's said to do it.
Would be silly not to tbh, i have a space i don't use, less than 5 min walk from a thameslink station.

We need to summon Jenna about this ? Thing

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:22 PM

People have been charging for parking spaces for ages. It's about time you did too.

I'm not sure that Jenna has the power to fix it. =(

nonperson 07-07-2023 07:23 PM

How does one summon Jenna? Is there a technique or is it just the mention of her name that she feels in the Force?

Cacoethes 07-07-2023 07:26 PM

According to the app, I'd have to ask my landlords permission, and they usually say yes but sometimes want a cut of the profits...hmm.

I think she just tends to hear/see her name and just KNOWS
