Just poking my head in after a very long absence to let everyone know that as of 3:15 today I am henceforth to be known only as Dr. Omoikiri 💪

My kid won an award today for visual arts. She received a $30 Coles gift card which she bought a packet of chips, large tub of cottage cheese and a lactose free drink.

She also got 100% on her history exam. ☺

Back from the hospital. Both positively and annoyingly, results were normal despite being in a fair bit of pain. But I will be getting a referral to a new specialist and also to a pain clinic so that’s a win.

I’m missing the pitter patter of tiny beans. I downsized to a week. It’s tempting to get Melbcat back asap but someone said maybe it’s it’s best to leave her there for a few days to settle in and get used to the cattery just so she knows it’s safe for next time.

Today I made 108 large lasagnas. I discovered a little hard lump in my hand, right where my rude finger joins on the palm side. You can move it around a bit, it’s kinda freaky. Doesn’t hurt too much but I’ll swing by a Dr next week and get it checked out.

Okay okay I’m playing Hot Take Thursday too.

I think trams are inefficient… they are so inflexible with rerouting, you can’t have express services, they can get majorly delayed by traffic, and because they can’t overtake, if one breaks down a whole lot get stuffed, and I still think it’s wild you often have to walk into the road to get on/off trams. And new routes are next to impossible to establish these days. I think people defend trams for the romantic charm but I think they are increasingly impractical for a city this size. Would rather see electric buses with bus lanes or fully separated light rail, not this worst of both worlds kind of thing.
