Appreciate you dude!

Think after the last one I need to not start panicking when anaesthesia starts working…and hope that they don’t have to curtail half way through again πŸ˜…

Following day is already booked off for Q’s 4th Birthday so a good recovery day πŸ˜‚

The Poet Laureate of the UK is famous for his translation of St Gawain and the Green Knight, and Kym once got up on stage, looked him straight in the eye, and then performed this.

Unsurprisingly enough, every time they've encountered each other since, he's remembered them.

I have a growing list for work that is just titled "Things that shouldn't be *this* hard to find" which covers either basic requests I've been given, information that takes longer than 30 minutes to find, or is hidden within different files/documents/web pages.

It shouldn't be 3 pages long.

It’s March 2026.
I’m due to get a second endoscopy tomorrow as they mislaid the original endoscopy results.

So of course I’m going to crack out the ol’3DS and play Pokemon Y! (Started again…oh wow it’s nostalgic)

Tim, in fox ears, drinking matcha.

Life update:
- We moved. Some small injuries occurred.
- I’ve got a load of Hospital appointments coming up.
- All the colds and bugs that plagued our house since December have finally impacted me heavily.
- Passionfruit Cheesecake Matcha is lovely. As well as lentil soup.

One of Quinn's favorite songs right now is Freestyler by Bomfunk MC's.

I don't recommend listening back to back, but that's his current fixation... Send help.

Energy Company decided to set up a new account in my partners names, cancelling the new account I had made for the new house.

I call, spend an hour getting it corrected and they wouldn’t be refunding me or closing my account…

Now find they are refunding, and adding an overdrawn fee…great(!)
