    I can nearly stand straight!! I’m getting better. ( explanation, sciatica puts pressure on the nerves leaving the spine , if you lean forward it relieves pressure and pain. Standing straight means the spine is ok ))

    Haven’t felt nearly as bad with the latest jab as I did the last booster, but I’ve been sleeping quite a bit.
    Also my arm is sore, as I found out when Zooks was snuggling up to me and stomping on it with her little floofy pawses. Owwww.

    Note to self. Induction hot plates work MUCH better if you plug them in. No, don’t ask. I might have to kill you if I tell you.

      I tell myself this regarding the kettle with embarrassing frequency. Especially when I start pouring (and then cursing).

    Medical cannabis appointment today. Wooo. Already passed the screening, so now it’s just discussing with the doctor, and then managing to afford it.

    Really looking forward to not being in pain all the time.

    Edit to add: Whole process was very smooth. Concession discount is huge on the concession products. The doctor was a full hour and a half late, but apparently he was trying to call me directly instead of using the linked telehealth waiting room thing. Didn’t get any missed calls though lol.

      my mate uses the reddit subreddit for strain reccomendations, apparently some are much cheaper than others so consider going to the appointment pre-loaded with a few preferred cheaper strains to request… because you mention finance.

        I went with a provider that does concession discounted products. 10g containers for $70 each.

        The doctor felt like a salesman though, he tried to upsell me on $500 more of non-concession products. Which I still would get a 10% discount on, but it came out to way way more than I can afford lol. He clearly didn’t want me only getting the discounted products.

    Well it finally happened. Stepped on a kids toy, slid and went down like a sack of shit. Hip and back did not appreciate the ride.

    1h 30mins to go until I’m done with work.

    Then:
    Sunday off
    Monday, Tuesday on
    Wednesday off
    Thursday on
    Friday off

    Wonder if I can request a last minute annual leave day for Thursday…

    This week’s featured song playing around and around in my head is Michael Jackson’s Smooth Criminal.

    Does anyone know if Annie was, in fact, ok?

    Didn’t make it to the fishmongers but I cooked up the defrosted tempeh I bought from the Indonesian joint on Glenferrie Road earlier this week. Ugh yessss. So much better than the plastic shit at colesworth.

    Having grown up with fresh tempeh wrapped in banana leaves I really miss easy access to good, properly made tempeh that isn’t some homogenised health food.

    Might even indulge in deep-frying some one of these days 🤭

    e: Finished watching Prosper. Eh… thoroughly mediocre. Typical soap opera plot. When can we have something on the calibre of Mr Inbetween again?
