I KNOW for a FACT that the MAYOR of DEFAULT CITY **HID** all the WOOD DUCKS that I intended to SNAP. Thankfully, the city's symbol (the MERMAID) interceded and and URGED a notorious mandarin duck mama to appear with her BABIES just when I approached the pond in the ROYAL BATHS

my flour order got messed up, but I don't even have the headspace to complain. more wholemeal spelt loaves it is.

Golden rays of sunlight = I get to skip vitamin D supplementation today.
I betrayed my secret to making pizza dough exquisite (mix tipo 00 flour with wholewheat 9:1) which provoked an unexpected reaction ('so that's why your pizza always tastes like B R E A D')
Also, it's NYE today but I feel to old to stay awake 'til midnight.

Side quest: find a pencil sharpener.
Main quest: make it to the pub quiz & be remotely helpful
Bonus points: don't make a fool out of yourself when using chopsticks
Detour for which no bonus EXP has been awarded: peruse Beckett's dramas in the morning in lieu of sun salutations

went to see "poor things" last night and I swear I will NOT touch another Alasdair Gray book in another 5-10 years
(don't get me wrong, I still admire the guy in many ways, especially for his takes on Glaswegian gloom. But his female characters are onedimensional all across the board)

the bureaucratic jargon of academic governance is riddled with terms concocted for the purpose of unsaying things, erasing phenomena, and blanking out experience

I swear this is the last time I buy a camera for under £30. This chunky clog arrived today. It's oozing of Victorian dampness. No surprises that the lens that came with it are enriched with yummy fungus. 🍄 So here I am aerating, cleaning and gluing some loose parts of this baby. Always faithful to side projects. (the big project advanced today by a further two subsections, so I can afford to spend some time on silly stuff)
On the bright side:
- the strap!!! I bet it'll be an object of envy of amateur photographers and some nostalgia-stricken grandpas
- I bought it from a charity that rehouses and rescues kittens 🐈
- Olga Tokarczuk would be proud to hear I've adopted a new mycelic colony

It's done. It's over.
And it feels like my brain has become smoother.

eyes too tired.
Why are there so many typos in this thing???
But hey, if the supervisors didn't catch them, I bet the examiners won't either
