What kind of bike did you get?

Hey you! Play this game!

She has a shelf life.

My not pet peeve today is little ones mum has (essentially) given the all good for little one to move to Melbourne with me so that is one gigantic hurdle cleared.

Things may change and we will discuss it more in depth later on, but for now it means I can move ahead with preliminary plans. It's a relief.

My irrational pet peeve today is seeing these cooking videos on social media where the people are just so aggressively doing things. Jerking oven doors open. Very deliberate, slow, deep and yet rough cutting of meat. Throwing seasoning on food like it's schoolies week.

Saltbae would be rolling in his grave.

Had a great time in Melbourne. The Jurassic World exhibition was a lot of fun. Took little one into the city and the National Art Gallery which she enjoyed.

But more importantly, Slurpees were a hit and she is more convinced than ever to move back to Melbourne.

One night back in Melbourne and sleeping in an oven has me reconsidering moving back here. Dear lord...

Has anyone been to the Jurassic World Exhibition in Brunswick? Is it any good? Thinking of taking my daughter there tomorrow or Friday.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Have fun and stay safe :-)

then again, they still had mine

That's the killer part, isn't it. Nothing stops them from reaching out, but they don't.

That is a way of looking at it. If they cant communicate straight away, it wouldn't be much better down the track I imagine.

things start to hurt less.

Just don't let it be because you are numb or becoming callous or uncaring. That is a hard road to come back from.

I definitely do not recommend them. It is exhausting and not good for your mental health.

and thank you :)

Bit of a rant:

It appears I created a cardinal sin for dating apps (aside from joining them).

Monday morning I sent a recent match on messenger (and she requested my info) a silly Dad joke and hope you have a good day.

She laughed. Said thanks. Hope you do too.

That night I asked how her day was.

No response.

Alright. Maybe busy or something. Left it at that.

Then Christmas Morning I said Merry Christmas. Hope you have a great day.

No response.

I've not said anything since. Not bothering (though still facebook friends, go figure).

Social conventions confuse me. I figure she's found someone else/better.

But I think 2025 is going to be the year of no apps. Just a focus on my goals. So ladies, you got 4 days to friendzone or ghost me before the chance is gone lol :D

I totally get that. It's hard to make time for the things we love to do.

That's so awesome. Good luck with it. I hope you do take the plunge and do more.

Can I be your kid?

Work is slow today (yay), I've done most of my 200 pages of textbook reading (boo) so now I'm making a list (of things to do to the house to prepare to sell to move back home) and checking it twice.

What kind of performing do you do?

Exactly why I wonder why anyone would pay so much for it. And that Fox/Murdoch make out like bandits...again.

But the sooner it dies, the better.
