Poor Melbcat is still in difficulty. Tomorrow morning she’s got a date with the vet, getting put under anaesthetic so they can clear the problem.

I wish I was rich. Not even to buy status symbol bullshit or luxuries. I’d sort basic needs for myself and my pet, get in a more stable position from scrambling for survival and then help others. Fucking fund food relief, accommodation, DV resources and animal shelters.

The conditions that have been created through greed are shameful in an affluent first world country (and unfortunately I’m not currently able to do much)

Lovely night.

Note to self: Iced Coffee doesn't mean Iced Latte at US Starbucks. Iced Coffee is black coffee, iced.

My boss is being a real piece of work today. They're coming at me like where's this, where's that, why did you do this (assuming what I did was wrong). Can you possibly just trust for one moment that I know what I am doing and the tasks on my plate are under control? It's the assuming that I always get it wrong or have missed something until convinced otherwise that really grates on me.

Hard relate. Is your boss normally like that?

When the day has me broken and beat, I listen to Nickel Creek and all worries melt away.

Who knew a guitar, a mandolin, and a violin could sound so damn good 😍
