Cats of Australia have made their choice. Snappy Tom. Snappy To-o-om. 🎶
That interview I thought I fucked up? They rang me back lol. Moving to the next stage 🤣
Haha, I had a vague feeling this would happen! Congrats!! Good luck with next steps 🤞🏽
That’s really good. Good luck with the next stage. 🤞
Got called for references for the job I interviewed for, feeling pretty confident I’ll snag it 😎 Especially as despite my ex-boss still being a shit from what I hear recently, he was more than supportive on the phone when I gave him a heads up.
If it all goes well the employment checks shouldn’t take more than a week or two, it’ll mainly be up to the medical provider for the pre-employment medical.
good luck 🤞
Let sleeping cats lie
That singular paw sticking out ❤
What perfect toe beans!!!
The little pout and the beans… cherubic
Well, I called it. Melbcat has potentially had a reaction to the antibiotic and has definitely got an ear infection and super itchy skin. I’ve been advised to stop the antibiotic (normally something you should never do) and give her eardrops and transdermal pain relief. They couldn’t get urine today so not sure about the UTI situation but if she worsens it’s specialist time.
poor sweetie, she having a rough time lately
Yeah, she’s allergic to everything poor girl
I can’t understand how we’re going to end up with another Biden v Trump election. And that Trump has a very good chance of winning. Scary stuff.
I don’t understand why he’s allowed to run again, much less why he’s not in jail.
Even then he could still run while in jail and pardon himself if he wins too.
He might not be able to run if convicted? Honestly I could understand why he wasn’t in jail if I bothered to read the articles explaining the processes and the complex legal reason he isn’t. I just… don’t care to spend my time doing that
Apparently he can as there’s history of convicted people running for president while in jail but both of them lost.
No idea what would actually happen if Trump wins if he’s in jail though. Would be unprecedented.

Far out.
I hate politics especially US but I just don’t understand how they (Dems) can think Biden is the best choice now. Surely neither of them are anywhere near the best choices to represent their parties. It seems insane to me.
The dems need someone loud and brash who boasts about all the democrat accomplishments and who brutally puts down republicans
Anyone else feel really sleepy at work this morning? I mustn’t have slept a wink, the way my body’s feeling
Me! I’m wrecked today, no idea why. Coffee’s not working either
I made rice with nuts, some cucumber raita and garama masala burgers.
anyone else wake up in the morning and first thing they do is to check the news to make sure the world hasn’t ended overnight, hoping for an excuse to not have to get out of bed?
Must feed animals or the furry little drama queens will perish ! Oh the suffering they have endured without food for 8 hours is immeasurable.
Same.
Ted Cat pats me on the face to wake me up if I am too tardy with the food. Bill just stares or yells at me.
No the first thing I do is stretch to make sure everything is still working. Then I let the dog out so he can have a piss.
Fun fact: on September 26, 1983, an officer in the Soviet millitary, Stanislav Petrov made a good decision. He oversaw the early-warning system for the Soviet nuclear arsenal. His warning system’s computer signalled that five American missiles were incoming. So he had to make a decision - does he report the missiles to his superiors? If he did, the Soviet military likely would launch a retaliatory nuclear strike.
Petrov decided the reports were false. Thank goodness he did, because 2.5 billion lives were at stake.
and that, is the true story of how I met your mother.
Actually made me cackle hahah
How good is oyster sauce? The good stuff, especially (I’m still on a bottle of Megachef that’s lasted me over a year). Lifts up any tired old vegetable stir fry. The perfect balance of sweet, salt, and savoury 👌🏽 especially with a dash of rice wine thrown in. Don’t need much else.
I love it. I add it to sauteed mushrooms. Special shout out to hoisin sauce. A fantastic little dipping sauce for all meat delicacies.
I love oyster sauce!
Add to veggies or soups with 2 minute noodles and I’m in heaven!
Oh it is such a great addition to 2 minute noodles. But in soups, I have never tried that before… I’m not a huge soup person but I should give it a go in winter. I can imagine it’s a nice alternative to stock powder for cheap and easy seasoning
I add the powder packets and stuff and then oyster sauce as well.
It’s quite nice with some flavours but I totally forgot about the stir fry noodles I used to cook with oyster sauce, water, dash of sesame oil, lol bit of sugar from memory, so delicious!
My partner puts it in the noodle stir fry he makes, along with sesame seed oil. It makes it taste like an amazing restaurant dish 🤤
!If you want my future, forget my past
If you wanna get with me, better make it fast
Now don’t go wasting my precious time
Get your act together we could be just fine!You want a shit and a cigar?
Just woke up from a 14 hour sleep. Fuck lol. And I also have the Snappy Tom song stuck in my head.
Meow.
Today’s preserving report: Lots of mixed berry jam made. I’m not sure at this point if it is going to set well enough, so it may be reclassified as mixed berry sauce before labelling. I ended up not doing the grilled vegetables and made 16 serves of overnight oats for the freezer instead, full of lots of yummy summer fruits.
I sometimes reboil jam the next day and use a cheat, I add will add some jamsetta. Of course that means recleaning all the jars again, which is a pain.
I am always happy to have some that doesn’t set, I have plenty of things I will use it for. It is much less stress to just let the fruit decide what it wants to be and go with it 🤣
very much not a failure, just different. yummy with vanilla icecream and pancakes
Absolutely. I also make my own yoghurt and use it as flavouring for that, it’s also good for swirling though cake or muffin batter.
It sounds like it could be delicious on the oats too
I misread that as “delicious on the cats” and was quite perplexed for a while. Oats sounds a much better option. Damn these old eyeballs!
o_O
I’ve cut up the watermelon. Dinner has been prepared.
I have eaten too much chocolate custard ughhh
-distant screaming: she’s gonna blowwww!-
yum
I make this at home, I make instant custard with powder, hot, and then when cooked I add either nutella or a couple of squares of real chocolate
it is so yum
