Just want to vent a bit about a really horrible experience trying to go out to trivia in Brisbane tonight. I’m up here for a work conference and didn’t want to go to the costume dinner thing they had, so booked a table at a local pub thinking I’d see if another team wanted a solo extra. First off the pub was super seedy and gross, the stickiest place I’ve been to in years. Then the only thing on the menu I could eat (recently developed awful reflux that I think is triggered by onion and garlic) was the pear and rocket salad and you guys, it is in my top 5 worst meals of all time. It was genuinely inedible. Then the trivia host ignored my three separate times as she went table to table. Genuinely ignored me waving and saying excuse me. At that point I just said fuck it and left. Now I’m sitting back in my hotel room eating yogurt and an apple as the saddest fucking dinner because my anxiety is through the roof. Fuck me. Plus it’s raining so now I have wet jeans that might not dry in time for me to pack them in my suitcase tomorrow.

Dad's birthday tomorrow and i hadn't thought of gift ideas....... So i may have just ordered a couple hundred dollars worth of Scottish meats and treats to be delivered. Min order was $150 for free delivery so i had to order some for him and some for me :P

ikea came with thegood at 8.30am, my left lower back is still fucked. still lots of resting.

Day 10 of my exercises completed. This morning I snuck into my MIL's back room, which is like a sun room/family room, and did them there. So much space! I think I will continue this from now on. She isn't up early so I'm not disturbing her, and she's said she doesn't mind me using the space.

Yesterday I set a target of 2500 steps and we were busy at work so I ended up doing 6129. It won't be anything like that today because I'll be standing at a bench hand stretching pizza bases and cutting dough.

Have a lovely day!

Shoutout to the headache gang. I had a joyful one at work and it’s still kind of lingering. So frustrating. Alas, I’m an uncool kid, so no tacos for me this Tuesday. It’s pasta, cheesy garlic bread and whatever else I can wrangle. I’ve also been cheeky with my chocolate cookie and chocolate bar this evening. You know, dessert before dinner.

How is everyone?
