    Merry xmas all.

    Off to Anglesea today to my cuzzes farm which I’ve never been to. They’ve recently done it up and apparently they have four (4!) horses.

    I plan on patting a horse.

    I got my nephew a remote controlled fart machine. He keeps sneaking it under adult seats and setting it off, the grown ups are being good sports and playing along. The kids are in fits of giggles. It’s a happy game that I think the kids will remember throughout their childhoods. It’s very wholesome. ❤️

      Kids make Christmas fun. Our second outing for the long day has been lightened by a remote control centipede attacking peoples feet.

    Came down with food poisoning or gastro or something, so didn’t see the fam today. Will do that on the 27th. Spent the morning drinking water, and then when my bowels were thoroughly cleaned out, I went for a walk with my partner.

    We did end up getting Macca’s because I wanted a coffee frappe, which was worth it lol.

    The cat is very very happy were home, he’s been very playful and snuggly.

    All in all, rather chill. And nothing wrong with that ^other than the overwhelming hatred I have for myself for being a disappointment to my family and my dad^ but that’s Christmas time for me anyway 🤦🏼‍♀️

      Glad you’re feeling better, but please don’t feel bad about not seeing family. If you’re sick, you’re sick, and it’s much better staying home than sharing the germs around

      Damn. Another case of food poisoning here.

      Hope you’ll be feeling way better soon!

      Glad you’ll be able to see family in a couple of days instead.

    Merry Christmas 🎄! On the train to the 'Rat and it’s lovely seeing quite a few on board with gifts and food. I even saw someone on the way to southern cross pushing around a pram with an Esky in it 😂

    I’m also chuffed that my sneaky plan to drive to the CBD and park near the station (all day free street parking on a PH!) worked - although plenty others had the same idea as me on Little Collins St, that was full up, lucky I got a park on Collins just 3 minutes walk.

    Downside of today is I packed my headphones and forgot to bring the adapter and I’m kicking myself. Luckily it’s quiet in this carriage… I have to get used to the modern world and their stupid headphone-jackless phones.

    E: families piled on around Rockbank. Oh well, I can live with it for now…

    Back home after train delays. Kind of glad I went for the lazy option driving to and fro the CBD, much less lugging around heavy dishes and thanks to the wonderful city trees my car stayed nice and cool all day. Barely any traffic, zero stress. The first song that came on when I was about to enter the city was Bill Withers’ Lovely Day. I can never get the full “daaaaaaaaaaaaay”… But it was great vibes.

    Lunch was alright and I’m glad I left when I did. So many loud obnoxious kids on the ride home. Right. Just need to push myself to get the pots and crap out of the car, vacuum the house, pack… and disengage. C’mon me, one last push. We are almost done with being in GO mode

    Did not account for quite that many snack breaks and so I’m a few mins off with my Die Hard timing. But happy trails, Hans!
