      It should be easier to have a comparatively better birthday but I hope you have a great one!

        Comparatively is a very dangerous word to use here. We’re talking an event that does include my grandfather literally dying in the middle of my 18th birthday party and (another year) ME almost dying (not hyperbole. I spent my 33rd birthday in the ICU with a 10% chance of survival.)

          I’m glad you’re still with us. If something shit happens this year, we will have no choice but to move your birthday to a different day.

    As far as strawberry cheesecake goes, I’m pretty impressed by my efforts. Candles and singing later, I just made sure it survived the trip out of the tin.

    Mickey has been way more cuddly and needy than usual, somehow. I think he knows something is happening soon (out trip and his stay in the cattery).

    Get to work early, a bit of work, long training session, bit of work, Balatro toilet time, lunch, more training.

    Then a bit of work, finish early, father’s day time at the childcare centre. A nice write-off of a day productivity-wise.

      father’s day time at the childcare centre.

      The father’s day morning teas I attended when my kids were in primary school, are some of the fondest memories I have from that time.

      I also felt bad at the kids who’s parents couldn’t attend. My kids’s reactions to me just being there, still brings a smile to my face.

        That’s why I made the effort to get into work early to go. They may be too young to remember but they’re old enough to know if something’s off on the day so I need to turn up.

    There’s an Imgur blackout protesting the banning of nsfw and also they were removing political content?

    Also they’re going to be purging old unused content not associated with an account so please go grab anything you’d miss if it hasn’t already happened. (It began at least a week ago maybe.)

    There are some old pics of Melbcat on there that will go… I do have the originals and don’t remember where I wrote the links to the post but it’s still sad to think about.

    I refused to make an account because they were demanding a phone number. I guess if I ever do Drawabox I have to find an alternative for that reason alone…
