Today is an incredibly packed Saturday of chores. So many clothes and so much cooking. One item is a hand pounded chilli sambal that is gonna make my weak and flabby arm fall off (not possible to get the shallots right without pounding - mums recipe and I promised I'd make it for a family lunch tomoz). I'm en route to an event I signed up for months ago that I don't feel ready for but am going to anyway because I gotta live a little too... and I still have car and job things to sort out. Alright, I can do this, I can do this...

Meanwhile, local incoherent screamy guy has taken to high st today. I am surprised the bougie locals haven't agitated to have him moved to different housing yet. Unless he has, but he's decided to come visit.

Last week there was a different dude up the street yelling at "fucking Belinda you fucking lying cunt". I suppose that's why the owners haven't upped my rent this year... that side of things is mostly quite manageable in the cool weather with the windows closed though.
