Donating every piece of clothing I just bought because despite being the ‘right’ size it actually sucks.

Socks that are so tight in the ribbing they strangle my ankles. Bra with straps I can’t tighten enough to keep them from slipping off. Trackies that are waist high with wide tight/rigid elastic that feels like it’s squeezing my stomach despite fitting exactly/slightly loose, and an excessively baggy arse.

What the hell Kmart? That was a complete waste of money because despite shelling out I still don’t have what I needed.

Now I have to wait until I can get support to go shopping and see what I’m getting.

fucking tell me about it. Bought a pair of jeans from BigW, they lasted less than a month before the thighs and ass split open.

twenty pairs of jeans in two years from Target, Big W, and Harris Scarfe.

I've even tried Levi's and they lasted all of two weeks.

At least Nudie Jeans guarantees free repairs and alterations for life, but they're so expensive.

Interesting time to take a nap is it back on yet?

Agree. I love Santana. I love Whitey. ♥

Good one

This is my favourite of Santana’s.

Smooth featuring Rob Thomas.

I think I prefer this version of the song that's on repeat in my house - kidcalhoon2 would freaking love it, kidcalhoon1 not so much

I watched the start of the most absurdly hilarious movie last night. It's called Hundreds of Beavers and the first 30 minutes is basically a Wile E Coyote skit. My god, I was losing it.

I hope the rest of it is just as good.

A friend of mine asked the groupchat for a 'nostalgic' pizza place. We figured out he meant a good bad pizza, not the Pizza Hut buffet from days of yore.

It got me thinking about good takeaway pizza places where the pizza isn't fancy but it still hits the spot. Fairfield Pizza is great, I could get two large pizzas and a garlic bread for $20 back in the day. Original Sinners in Macleod is up there as well. There's a place near me called Romulus Pizza, it's a bit more fancy but still takeaway. Probably one of the best takeaway places I've ever gone to, they make their own dough and you can feel the difference.

Plotting outfit for ‘Bad Taste’ birthday party tomorrow. Currently all hot pink leopard print and safety vest orange. I do have some orange makeup, but it’s super itchy…

Add feather boa - any colour that doesn't match.
