I feel terrible. I took melatonin last night so I could survive the 6am wakeup. I woke around 2:30 after having some weird dreams, like bumping into people this girl my ex studied with, and she congratulated me for breaking up with him and then basically told me about his new relationship? Lucky for him I guess, it was easy to move on. Then I parked my car at her rental property, which was empty, and she insisted on leaving the car keys outside the car despite having lots of theft in the area. I insisted on holding the keys. My car ended up getting broken into, and half a window was hanging out, but I drove home on some mysterious road that somehow connected to a freeway near my house.
I couldn’t sleep until 2 hours later. I don’t know how I’m going to survive a real job, but maybe the consistency of waking up early will help. No more melatonin.
Personally I find melatonin is better for making yourself fall asleep earlier on time, rather than fall asleep when it’s too late. So for example if you want to start falling asleep at 8pm and you don’t feel remotely sleepy that’s when you take the melatonin. Better for correcting sleep phases than actually helping you sleep like a sedative. Bad side effects are feeling like crap in the morning and weird dreams… btw I think your dream could be interpreted quite creatively as an allegory about trust and boundaries.
As someone who has been notoriously bad at waking up early and never been a morning person I will say that having a regular job that gets you out of the house will eventually help get you used to it. Money is a great motivator.
Can I add Neneh Cherry and PJ Harvey to your list?
😊❤️ I love this one, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zB0UzHGo4s
That’s one of my favourite albums of all time too
Yassss! How could I forget those two! 🖤
I missed one:
So underrated.
Edit: Billie Holiday. And Janis Joplin’s Summertime.
That’s a good one. Reminds me of Autolux.
Took apart and (almost, so far) rebuilt a fancy outdoor umbrella. Thing blew over last summer and broke a rib / pulley system.
Not doing that again that was fucked. Lotta swear words. I jump on the manufacturers website afterwards to find a part for it “We do not recommend attempting to repair this unless you are technically capable and have patience”.
Shoulda read that part before trying.
But it’s getting there!
Swearing is one of the tools available to get a job done.
C’moooonnnnn
My best friend that I haven’t seen for 30ish years was going to come to Australia next month, but now isn’t due to something of a family tragedy. Shit.
so many hugs, I hope things improve for them soon
Oops. Accidentally bought individually wrapped cheese slices. There is no excuse for this quantity of packaging. Meep 😾

Yeah, it’s that plastic shit also. I dun fucked up.
years ago when I was staying with Miss Seagoon and she was working late shifts I lived on cheese slices, apples , walnuts and the occasional cooked dinner of frozen vegies, tinned tomatoes and chorizo.
loved them European cheese cheese slices, yum
Aldi has a good selection of these. I like the havarti and the maasdam, but my all time fave was the Lindenberg. Sadly not in stock atm.
Good night everyone, sweet dreams 😘
Going out for a walk soon and I can’t be arsed to login so I am watching the wii version of Sinner Shelton game on Youtube
Big news - Djokovic has retired from the tournament 🎾 🍺
Couldn’t have happened a nicer person.
Hey. TJ’s comments hurt him ok.
I think he’s out injured. Don’t really know because we have the music on and don’t really care.
Dear god, I saw it’s meant to be 39 on Monday. I hope the forecast mellows out by then
God can’t help you.
that’s why I took today off…I aint’ doing shit on monday but battening down hatches and peering balefully out windows.
Seriously reconsidering my ridiculous plan to do fieldwork that morning because of the free parking. might be better just paying for the parking out of my own wallet the next day than putting myself through that
Better start praying to Ra and Helios. The sun is their jurisdiction.
The man has taken upon himself to dedicated a song on my behalf
He still makes me laugh after 29 years together.
Mr Seagoon approves
29 years! I believe in love again.
Boy unicorns are around. With a little training they come good.

Such an empty beach this summer I really don’t know where everyone is. Suits me though but still, where’d everyone go?
severance not really spoiler
“Fetid moppet” might just be by new favourite insult Along with “shambolic rube” from last week of course
I like to think that some writer just collected ideas for insults for the last three years and is now just letting loose.
Show is really busting out amazing phrases. The utterly creepy way in which that line was delivered, lighting and all, is living in my head rent-free
😡
That is all.
😢
For what mate?
Just stressed because of some family health issues and financial stuff linked to it.
hugs,
Oh dear. Hugs 🫂
I think it’s about the rivers closing and not being able to have any herring anymore
I think it’s that they went to the supermarket but someone already bought the last of the cheese slices.
Oh. I’ll have to source my imitation crocs from somewhere else now.
