I’m feeling incredibly irritated. But I don’t know why, more as the story breaks.

I'm trying to pluck up the courage to write a Substack blog, but my battery's empty, and the future feels bleak. It'll be bloody depressing. I at least want to spare people that.

So today then - scalded myself and cried about it, spent nearly an hour on the phone with Curries, with work stuff I needed to do left idle, and then they promised to phone me back, but didn’t. Today has been a bit of a ballache.

Seen as I have no-one else to tell, I’m telling you on here.

I just spilt hot chocolate over myself and I couldn’t get my pants off quick enough and it really fucking hurt and I was screaming.

I’m okay now, but it was horrible.

The tree outside is rolling with the wind and there’s torrential rain.

The wind is really packing a punch out there today. 💨 Glad I got the timing right on the run yesterday- wouldn’t fancy it today.

Pizza came out and I’m having a slice as we speak. You don’t get a picture tho’ because it caught a bit in the oven.

1/ I’ve sent away for a second hand hard copy of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi. I was inspired to read it after reading an interview this morning between Ezra Klein and Patti Smith in The NY Times.

He asked her, in a somewhat lengthy interview, what her favourite books were.
