Took me a bit of guts, but I manage to spit my feelings for somebody the other day, and while I don’t know if they took it the right way, they seem to be acting a lot friendlier.
Who knows, maybe I’ll feel like living again

I have procured an extremely fresh batch of shrooms. They don’t look like the stuff I’m used to, and I’ve been told to start out with half of what I would normally do. Gonna grab some lemons and whip up a cocktail later. Should be an interesting evening lol.

Aw, that’s so sweet 
Lots of tasty food after the school ANZAC day service
I’ll miss that in two years time
I have officially paid off my mortgage. 
Took me one year and seven months. Most people thought I was nuts when I said I could do it in less than two years, but that’s discipline and determination for ya.

The fact that my wife is working late so I had the whole day to finish my track “Music Dance Experience” (see Listening Booth.) No cleaning, life maintenance and, most importantly, no painting or decorating. I have a MASSIVE pizza in the fridge and I intend to cram it all into my mouth, drop the toppings on my shirt and do an impression of Sir Les Patterson.
“‘In Sydney the Sheilas call me The Plunger.’”
Legend.

@Mecha_Twitchy I’ve been making my fancy grilled cheese for some friends this week:
Buuuut I’m not eating it, because after years of inactivity, I’ve started exercising again! I used to be able to do two fingered pullups, but I’m way out of shape these days. I’m starting my old at-home routine again and this is the first week in a while that I’ve been in a genuinly good mood. The only problem is because of my schedule, I can’t start them until I get home in the evening, so I gotta be careful about getting psyched up right before I go to bed.
My muscles are a bit shot because they suck, so I did some cardio to mix it up tonight. I was at the weight I am now right now before I had had enough last time, so I’m hoping it’ll go well. Feels good regardless.

I have never seen such a delicious grilled cheese in my life…
Good on you though! It’s always good to do some exercise once in a while, ESPECIALLY when you get results. Have you considered dancing before? It sounds weird but learning hakken and shuffle is actually really fun. It also destroys your cardiovascular system while you’re doing it, but that’s a good thing right?
My posture’s horrible so I do some back workouts once a week to improve it. So far, not much has changed, but I do feel a little less like a prawn

My department manager told me I’m doing a great job (which apparently she rarely does) and also mentioned she is working to extend my contract so I won’t be out of a job at the end of the month 
I had a rough day in the office (aka my spare bedroom) today dealing with work crap, and that definitely helped me turn a corner mentally. Looking forward to the future

The secret is a bit of pesto and an extra sharp cheddar outer crust.
Yeah, I bought my usual food last Sunday, but Monday night I had just had enough. I lost a shit ton of weight before over the course of nine months, and it was by fasting, vegetables, and light exercise. That was my IDMf twink days when I posted videos from like six years ago lol. I don’t even eat much food, but I’m so over it. Makes me feel good!
That’s cool! Glad work is going well for you, my friend.

IDMf twink days
Better than it has in a long time! Every day I do remember to be grateful I’m no longer working in the alcohol industry anymore, and I’m taking much better care of myself (even though I always have room to improve lol). And I’m learning to work in a whole entirely new field, and though it’s difficult at times it feels good to challenge myself finally, after almost two decades of going through the motions, living that bartender life. because now I am:
Fitter.
Happier.
More productive.
Comfortable.
Not drinking too much.
Regular exercise at the gym 3 days a week. (total lie)
Like a cat. Tied to a stake.
A pig. In a cage.
On antibiotics.
Speaking of Thom Yorke, this just came out today and it is reinventing my musical mind right now.
Fuck yeah, I love when WARP releases a straight up monument. At least in my opinion this is.

Went to my parents’ and cooked them grilled cheese I no longer need, so here’s a fancy pic:

I’m all about the crusted cheese on the outside. I like to make a sort of cheese skirt by recklessly dumping cheese on both sides of bread, inner sides up. basically just scattering shredded cheese haphazardly 80% on the bread, but also around the outside of it. take a smaller pan lid, drop a splash of water between the pieces of bread for steam, and flash steam it by putting that lid over the top for like 20-30 seconds. flip one bread over on to the other, then take flat end of spatula over the top of the sandwich and swirl it around the pan so all that 20% extra pan cheese crust melds into the bread. waste no cheese. use the entire buffalo. oh yeah, around that time, it’s magical parmesan sprinkle power time on both sides.
your sandwich looks amazing. that’s a work of art. tbh… I’m starting to think that grilled cheese for americans might be akin to mole for mexicans or or spaghetti sauce for italians, that kind of familial uniquity of a recipe, how we sometimes inherit a relatively common design but modify it and personalize it with experimentation then pass it down with mostly oral communication our youngers. you know, special techniques or recipes on how to make something very specifically that sets you apart. jewish people have recipes passed down over millenia. same with my family, but for us it’s mental illness lol. but motherfucker let me tell you what, i can make a gourmet grilled cheese that will make a portland $22 food truck grilled cheese sando its bitch. look I’ve eaten so many grilled cheeses in so many different situations in so many different points in so many different cities made by so many different in my life that it’s just an observation… everyone has “the right way” to make their grilled cheese. you can tell a lot about a person by what their grilled cheese looks and tastes like.
sorry I grew up one “class” “above” “poor”. not quite “poor” but almost. did anyone ever eat “eggs in a hole”? sounds sexy but it’s not. for sunday night dinners, if it wasn’t grilled cheese because we couldn’t always afford cheese and eggs were literally a dime a dozen back then… it was “eggs in a hole” (using a go-cup to cut a circle out of the center of a piece of bread and frying an egg in it. eggs in a hole. cool thanks for reading those that did
