The duller the better!

I’ll start… I couldn’t decide which yoghurt to have, so had a few spoonfuls of both. Cherry, then Mango and Passionfruit.

I'm watching an Escape to the Country dated 2016. Is that too exciting?

When getting dressed this morning I pondered whether to wear ankle socks or trainer socks. The ankle socks are more aestheticly pleasing, but harder to put on because they're not stretchy. The trainer socks might have led to some rubbing on my ankles when I later put my boots on. Then I thought about taking off my jeans and putting on a skirt and wearing sandals. But I prefer to drive in boots. But it's a warm day...

I'm wearing jeans and trainer socks now and eating a banana. It's been a challenging day hasn't it.

I've asked DD to get me some more trainer socks from Primark.
I had to stress that I wanted trainer socks, not the footy type ones which can come off walking in trainers. Also to be distinguished from the ankleless socks which come too far towards the ankle.
It is indeed a minefield.

Sorry - and my old cat is lying next to me.

I’ve just had a 40 minute meeting about concrete.

You win.

😂

Thank you. I’ve also written an article about hinges.

I saw some strawberry Jammy Dodgers (the biscuit itself is pink Hmm) in Morrisons this morning. I didn't buy them.

Oh you saved yourself grief. They taste horrible, I likened them to the strawberry antibiotic medicine, just horrific.

BeNiceWhenItsFinished · 02/05/2025 15:47

I threw away my lukewarm cup of tea and made another.

LiveshipParagon · 02/05/2025 15:47

RipleyJones · 02/05/2025 15:18

Would you have bought them if the biscuit had been the usual Jammy Dodger beigey biscuit colour?

Probably not (original raspberry jam is always going to be superior to strawberry), but I would definitely have been more tempted.

BeNiceWhenItsFinished · 02/05/2025 15:48

Strawberry-flavoured food will forever remind me of Calpol.

Oh phew 😂 I often succumb to a gimmick, it's good to know that resisting is the right choice sometimes 😂

I found a peach ring in my glow worms!

Examine it closely for the face of Jesus. You never know. He often turns up on random food items, and that is very random indeed.

I put a song on my phone for DD, then wanted to record her singing along to it and searched endlessly for my phone.

I’ve just had a 40 minute meeting about concrete.

I’ve just had a boring, but very quick meeting about why a Web API wasn’t working.

Question: Why isn’t it working?
Me: Don’t know, I didn’t write it.

Question: Is the client annoyed?
Me: More pissed off I’d say.

To me: Get hold of the person who wrote it and get them to fix it.
Me: I can’t

Question: Why?
Me: You made them redundant.

Silence….

Yes very boring, but in a warped way I enjoyed it.

I bought some Higgedy vegan muffins today. Roasted red pepper, pine nuts and basil.
Quite nice. 93 calories for two.

I found a few greenfly on the cat so I squashed them.

Your cat gets greenfly? 😂

Dontcallmescarface · 02/05/2025 16:26

I spent my 15 minute break wiping seagull shit off my car.

Pandimoanymum · 02/05/2025 16:28

I have to fill in a health questionnaire before a consultation next week. Instead of doing the questionnaire, I wrote "Do questionnaire" on a post-it note and stuck it at eye level on a kitchen cupboard.

Jellycatspyjamas · 02/05/2025 16:29

I’ve spent the whole day referencing a work document. The whole fucking day.

Mistyglade · 02/05/2025 16:30

My heels are a bit sore because of new sandals.

Galadali · 02/05/2025 16:31

I had a new screen protector for my phone delivered.

Dox9 · 02/05/2025 16:31

There's a bit of a smell in the kitchen. Its been around for a few days now. I am thinking of (a) putting bleach down the plughole and (b) checking the potato bag for rotten specimens.

Whatwouldnanado · 02/05/2025 16:34

A non important meeting which has already been shifted three times at work has just been shifted again. To when my calendar already says I am on leave. Someone I work with is short of something to do.

frozendaisy · 02/05/2025 16:34

I took out of the drawer a rubble sack instead of a bin bag.

My glasses keep sliding down my nose
