What Are You Doing?

Trying to get ready for work, but my lungs (or, well, thereabout) is itching when I breath and I feel altogether quite shitty.

I hate that it's already dark when I get up in the morning. I really want it to be december, but I don't want any of the fall and winter until then...

 

Are you my ex, or do you know him?

 

Watching Jenna Marbles make dog treats whilst her dogs sit across the counter.

 

Hhhhm, I've got a feeling this is a question to which I cannot make a good answer.

A large part of the story surrounding my MC is the inadequacies of the 'Care' system and how it constantly let's kids down and how, in my view, when the State takes responsibility for a kid that kid should be brought up in a proper decent environment where the kid has at least as good access to a decent education and future prospects as any other kid.
If the State takes a parental responsibility then their first duty is to bring the kid up properly, in this country they fail to do that repeatedly and continuously, they all know it but don't do anything about it because, I believe, kids can't vote and it's a difficult issue.
I was there a very long time ago and have watched it closely ever since.
Also I have daughters who were teenagers and getting an insight into psycho teenage girl behaviours was pretty easy.
How's that?

 

I have fallen down the rabbit hole of hilarious Harry Potter memes/tumbler posts.

Send help.

 

Have you heard of My Immortal, it is a funny piece of bad
HP fan-fic. Maybe a bit cringe worthy.

 

Yes, this perplexes me too. Take kids into care for fear of harm, then (often, but not always) do them even more harm! Genius of modern society and government. Gold stars all round.

 

Oh dear, now I've got another thing to procrastinate with. Bc you know now I have to Google that too.

 

Now I have to Evanescence.

 

There's even a debate among the internet on if it was purposefully written that bad or just genuinely terrible. It's something else man.

 

omg @Cave Troll that is the worst piece of drivel I've ever had the displeasure of reading. I only made it to chapter 4 before clicking away in utter disgust.

You know I love you.

 

To be fair it is a very complicated issue with every situation being difficult just by the nature of the thing.
However, I'm sure a very great deal more could be done and the cost would be pretty insignificant compared to money spent on other projects.
I would give them a gold star too, but it would require a size 12 boot to fit it correctly.

 

On my way home.

The late student list was far too long considering that school started late today (five were so late they got an hour detention from the attendance officer and a phone call home).

 

Wondering why I didn’t make myself a sandwich — it’s raining on and off all day and I’m starting to wish I had.

 

To be fair, I never said it was good.
It is well known in the Creepy Pasta
circles, and is more known as a Shit Pasta.

 

Learning French for free online.

 

Watching a 1930’s Barbara Stanwyck movie (Babyface), doing laundry (load 3 of 4) and waiting for a grocery delivery.

 

Being sick and burnt out, cause that's fun.

 

Wondering why going to bed at 10pm seems not to be my thing these days.

I'm also thinking that while today, 27 September 2018, is yet another day I'll have managed to demonstrate my out-of-this-world skill at being an embarrassment to myself, so many more important things will also have also taken place that it doesn't at all matter.

 

Going to bed, as I've made myself sick with weird French pronunciations (ho, not oh) and backwards descriptions (the restaurant french, not the french restaurant etc.).

 

I'm staring at two baby monitors, holding a bottle of ice cold Karamalz (a non alcoholic malt drink) and wondering if I should go to bed or watch the new episode of Better Call Saul.

 

Never fixed the car or modded the creek pump. Been crook all week. Fybromyalgia fatigue. Stayed in me room watching movies borrowed from the library, editing me book and playing Gungirl 2., and writing lengthy emails to my son in law.

Have yet to connect the Super Nintendo I purchased a while back. Had me new phone for 2 months before i started using it. Had new LCD flatscreen in box under bed for 12 months before I set it up. Still got me new tower system sitting in the tool shed waiting to be used. Had a great time researching and buying all the parts and building it, but zero enthusiasm to shove it in me room and actually use it.

This morning decided to muster up some enthusiasm to replace the worn front hub. Spend an hour rummaging through the carport and tool shed...can't find the two wheel hubs I bought a few months go. Tassie aliens struck again, or for the life of me can't recall where I put them....though my money's on theft by the aliens. Tassie aliens are quite different from all others you hear reports of.

Drove extra sedately to the village, ordered a hub from the mechanic, arriving monday arvo, installing myself on teusday. Enjoying the only coffee I've had all week. Nice spring weather is just starting to be consistent.

 

I'm brewing a pot of coffee and trying to work up the courage edit a short story I wrote for kids that isn't 'kid friendly' enough. Apparently letting both the little girl and her dog die it "too traumatizing." Wankers.

 

Grimm-ness.
